Review by Nick H. Mixing open world environments, strategy and some over-the-top kills, Sniper Elite 4 is the best entry in the series so far. That is not to say that the experience does not have some flaws, but it does enough things right that fans of the series or…
Read MorePreview by Matt S. I knew nothing about Get Even before getting some hands-on time with it at Bandai Namco’s offices recently. It looks like a pretty generic modern shooter, and in the opening chapter of the game, I thought that was exactly what it was setting itself up to…
Read MoreReview by Nick H. If you are simply looking for an action-packed shooter that works far better with friends than alone, then Killing Floor 2 is not a bad option. If, however, you’re on the hunt for a game with a narrative, or indeed any degree of substance, then this…

Read MoreReview by Nick H. If you managed to somehow miss all or even some of the Bioshock games and enjoy first-person action games, then this remaster is a great excuse to give those missed opportunities a try. Admittedly, there is not a whole lot new to the package, but the…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. This was not the game that Metroid fans were looking forward to. Metroid Prime: Federation Force is clearly a game that Nintendo had thrown together on the cheap in order to fill in a gap in the release library – both for the 3DS itself, and…
Read MoreReview by Harvard L. Take a time to imagine when the First Person Shooter genre weren’t the titanic please-everybody genre that it is today, and it might be easier to visualise how Verdun fits into the grand scheme of things. A hardcore World War One trench based shooter; Verdun racked…
