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…

Arcade/PlayStation/PlayStation Vita/Reviews/space/Velocity Ultra

Space seems to be the latest craze for the pick-up-and-play style games, but rarely do games have that “just one more go” magic that will see you up and playing the game until the next morning dawns. Velocity Ultra is a vertical scrolling space shooter that is faced-paced and stress-inducing.…

Console Reveal/Microsoft/Xbox/Xbox One

I got up at 3am, Australia time, to watch the Microsoft new Xbox reveal. This new console, Xbox One, managed to fulfil every single one of my predictions about the console, and that means it doesn’t paint a pretty picture for Microsoft’s understanding of gaming. To narrow it down to…

Mario Vs. Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move does not fool me. It’s a really well made $0.99 app… and that’s really the best way to put it. It’s nothing more or less. Is it worth paying ten times as much for? Well, I’m sure plenty of Nintendo fans will…
