Review by Matt S. “It made Artyom shudder to imagine the tunnel beyond the seven-hundredth metre. It was horrifying just to think about it. No one had the guts to go beyond the seven-hundredth metre to the north. Patrols had made it to the five-hundredth, and having illuminated the boundary…
Read MoreReview by Trent P. Space is considered the last destination in humanity’s journey to conquer its environment, and there’s romance and drama in that. Consequently, this final frontier has been tackled by many game developers with their own spin on what space is, means, and must be like. Some focus…
Read MorePreview by Matt S. I don’t play many Far Cry games. Or, perhaps it’s just as accurate to say that I play a lot of them. I’ve played all the Assassin’s Creed and Watch Dogs titles, and Far Cry is really the same thing, just presented from a first person…

Originally a console exclusive on PlayStation 2 and GameCube, Killer7, to this day,…
Read MoreReview by Lachlan W. Have you ever gone to the movies and just wanted to stick your whole entire face under the popcorn machine? Sweet simple carb rush, breezy airiness of a mostly empty product, and the guilt of having to go for a jog to burn off all that…
Read MoreReview by Lindsay M. I am honestly not sure what I thought when I picked up Escape From Chernobyl. It’s developed by Atypical Games, the company behind Radiation Island… and it’s pretty much Radiation Island with a much darker location and general feel. The problem is, the developers decided to…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Here’s a big dirty secret: I like Paladins. I know I rant on about shooters plenty, but there’s plenty about them that I can find enjoyable. When the action doesn’t take itself too seriously, and there’s a good mix of interesting characters and fun levels, I…
