LAST CHANCE! Win one of FIVE RIG 800 PRO headsets & Stranger Of Paradise (+DLC)

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: Elex II (Sony PlayStation 5)

I’m not sure there’s ever a precisely right time to release a…

Review: Gran Turismo 7 (Sony PlayStation 5)

We are all about the Digitally Downloaded games here (hence the name of the site, right?) Well Good Old Games has a pretty significant sale going right now they are dubbing their 2012 End of the World DRM-Free Sale. As of this posting, there are about twenty hours left is…

UPDATED: Dark Souls 2: run for the hills, the early news reports are not pretty

December 19, 2012
Dark Souls/Dark Souls II/From Software/Opinion/uh oh

Earlier this month I wrote about my concerns with the announced Dark Souls 2. From the early reports and rumours, it would seem that my concerns are justified. The first red flag is that the team making Dark Souls 2 is significantly larger than the team that made Dark Souls.…

The 24 Games of Christmas! Day #19: To The Moon

December 19, 2012
24 games of Christmas/To The Moon

It’s that time again! Michael Buble’s smooth voice serenades us over the radio with his brilliant rendition of “Let it Snow.” Houses are covered with bright lights, tinsel, green and red colours. Children anxiously count down the days, hoping they were good enough for a visit by Santa. It’s a…

All I want for Christmas is half-naked Dead or Alive fighters (DLC alert)

December 18, 2012
christmas/Costumes/Dead or Alive 5/DLC/Tecmo Koei

Dead or Alive 5 has had a steady stream of DLC costumes since it was released earlier in the year, and so I don’t think anyone will be surprised to see some Christmas-themed DLC packs pop up on the XBLA and PSN services. Every single character gets a Santa costume.…

Review: Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed (Wii U)

December 18, 2012
Nintendo/Nintendo Wii U/Racing/Reviews/Sega/Sonic and Sega All Stars Racing

It’s been quite a good year for the Kart racing genre. Games like LittleBigPlanet Karting and Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed have been able to at least challenge Mario Kart at the top of the podium. But how well does Sonic’s new racer hold up against Mario? Quite well in…

Schrodinger’s Cat: How the Wii U is, and is not, a next-gen console

December 18, 2012
Nintendo/Opinion/Shrodinger's Cat/Wii U

Going forwards, if you ever want to demonstrate a real-life example of Schrodinger’s Cat, you need only refer back to the moment where the Wii U was released. This precise moment is greatly dividing the gaming community about what, exactly, is a next-gen console. The Wii U has proved itself…

Review: Ratchet & Clank Q-Force (PS3)

December 17, 2012
Multiplayer/platformer/PlayStation/PlayStation 3/PlayStation Vita/Ratchet and Clank/Ratchet and Clank Q Force/Reviews/Tower defence

I like the idea behind Ratchet and Clank Q Force: a stocking-filler of a game that is built around some multiplayer fun, and priced appropriately. Unlike most games produced entirely to capitalise on Christmas, Q Force has the backing of a very popular mascot, and is anything but shovelware. The…

Review: Crimson Shroud (3DS)

December 16, 2012
board game/Crimson Shroud/Goichi Suda/Nintendo/Nintendo 3DS/Reviews/Yasumi Matsuno/Yoot Saito

What a brilliant game Crimson Shroud is. Yasumi Matsuno (of Vagrant Story and Final Fantasy XII fame) has done what his compatriots, Yoot Saito (Aero Porter) and Goichi Suda (Liberation Maiden) were not able to in the Guild01 compilation – build a small game that is not only innovative and…
