Aussie readers of DDNet, have we got a treat for you! (Note: this competition is only open to Australian residents. Apologies, overseas friends, but I’m sure we’ll have another contest for you soon) Stranger Of Paradise is one of the finest, and smartest, games in Square Enix’s storied series. As we wrote in our 4.5/5 review: Do you know that…

Why I can’t review Martha is Dead

I don’t believe topics should be ignored in games, but I do believe that certain issues need to be handled delicately; things like mental illness, sexual assault, and war are not topics to be taken lightly. LKA is, to me, best known for approaching some very sensitive topics in The…

Review: Project X Zone (3DS)

3DS Review/Capcom/JRPG/Namco Bandai/Nintendo/Nintendo 3DS/Project X Zone/Reviews/Sega/tactics game

What do you get when you mix in a little bit of everything to a tactics strategy game? In the case of Project X Zone, what you get is moments of humorous dialogue sprinkled into a ridiculously thrown together story. And that makes for a fun game that is definitely…

July 1, 2013
Apple/board game/Games Workship/iPad/Reviews/warhammer/Warhammer Quest

It has been a while since we’ve had an authentic Warhammer experience. THQ mishandled the license with extreme prejudice, even going so far to publish a game that was a generic action clone with that awful Space Marine game that I’ve tried to purge from my memory. So as far…

The weekly discussion/weekly chat

These days there are no shortage of options for gaming on the go. In addition to the traditional handheld consoles – the 3DS and the Vita – there’s very powerful gaming laptops and the ever reliable iPhone and iPad and Android devices. But if you’re like me and you own…

Apple/Arcade/iOS/review/Reviews/The Game Atelier/Zorbie

I’ve played some strange games in the 27 or so years that I’ve been playing video games, but Zorbie is one of the most extraordinarily strange titles I’ve ever come across. Zorbie, the game’s titular hero, is an escaped convict from a French prison and like all good prison escapees,…

Interview/Microsoft Xbox 360/Sagi Koren/SpikySnail Games/Super Splatters/the splatters/Xbox Arcade/Xbox Live

When The Splatters first released for Xbox 360, we liked it well enough here in our review to score it four out of five stars. Needless to say, we were also pretty excited to hear that the title would be released on Steam in a game titled Super Splatters. This…

Censorship/Classification Board/devil's adovcate/Opinion/R18/Saints Row IV

Over the last couple of days the gamers in Australia have experienced something that is nothing short of a farce with two games in two days being refused classification for some truly ridiculous reasons. Saint’s Row IV was effectively banned because it features a weapon that looks like a sex…

Review: Pro Cycling Manager 2013 (PC)

June 27, 2013
PC/Pro Cycling Manager/Reviews/simulation/Sports

When I started up Pro Cycling Manager 2013, I figured that this would be a very easy game to play. Feed the athletes performance enhancing drugs, drop the occasional bribe to make sure that the drug tests come through clean, and claim the trophy. Then I discovered that this game…
