Read MoreIs the Duke worth remembering before he went ‘3D’? The revamped second entry in the series makes a case. I actually remember Duke Nukem II when it was released by Apogee (there’s a blast from the past) back in 1993. I can’t say that I played it though, as I…
Read MoreWell, this is embarrassing. It’s time to write my first hardware review for DigitallyDownloaded, but I seem to have lost the gadget in question. I’ve checked my laptop bag, my briefcase and my rucksack. I’ve scoured my man-shelf. I’ve even – radically, I thought – checked that I haven’t put…

Read MoreI was wondering when XSeed would take its first steps into iPad publishing. As specialists in publishing Japanese games, there are surely plenty of opportunities to localise Japan-developed iOS titles emerging as the App Store is now hitting a critical mass over there that has seen so many western developers…
Read MoreWriting about Ridiculous Fishing (let alone reviewing it) is awkward to say the least. On one hand, developer Vlambeer (of Super Crate Box fame) would not want me to bring up Ninja Fishing – but to be honest, I could live without mentioning it – Gamenauts’ all-too-successful clone of Vlambeer’s…
