Review by Harvard L. Fury Unleashed is a far more heartfelt game than I expected it to be. This isn’t how I anticipated starting this review. In my notes I’d written that it plays a little like Metal Slug and a lot like Comix Zone, I’d written that it has…
Read MoreNews by Matt S. Kingdom Under Fire was a series that was particularly special back on the original Xbox. As I have since found out, it holds up well today, with the developer porting the original game to the PC earlier this year. Now the sequel to that game, Kingdom…
Read MoreReview by Harvard L. I’m a firm believer that games should be diverse, and often I’ll refer to the “flavours” of games. Some games are sweet, others are spicy, some are rich. In line with this metaphor, Arrest of a Stone Buddha is very singularly bitter. As with other bitter…

Read MoreReview by Matt S. Koei Tecmo’s Nioh was a breakthrough in so many ways. It represented the first time that a developer outside of FromSoftware had figured out the X-factor that made FromSoftware’s Dark Souls and Bloodborne such incredible experiences. Koei also managed to do so while keeping a firm…
Read MoreNews by Matt S. Prinny 1 & 2 were platformers released back on the PSP. Featuring NISA’s demon-penguin mascot, these games were infamous for being very challenging and very, very good. Now NISA has decided to bundle them up together and release them on Nintendo Switch. The package will include…
Read MoreVideo by Harvard L. When it released last year, Sayonara Wild Hearts instantly became an indie darling, thanks to its super-cool sense of style, its gorgeous aesthetic, and heart-pounding action.
