Review by Nick H. TowerFall Ascension is a title that feels right at home next to Mario Kart, Tiny Brains or any other kind of party game. The idea is simple, but the execution is almost flawless. You and some friends are dropped into one of more than a hundred…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Why can’t more shooters be like this? Plants Vs. Zombies Garden Warfare is a joy to play. It’s technically competent and well balanced, uses the excellent Frostbite 3 engine, has plenty of depth, and unlike almost every other shooter out there it doesn’t rely on gore…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Right now, as I sit down to review this game, Basement Crawl is a broken mess, but the developer, Bloober Team, understands this, and in an open letter to the community has admitted the game’s technical flaws and promised that it is working overtime to fix…
Read MoreReview by Nick H. Tiny Brains sets itself up as an action/ puzzle game that tackles a lot of physics-based problems while showing off an amusing sense of humour. The world is seen from an angled overhead view, giving you a look at your tiny little abominations, which are attempting…

Read MoreHere at Digitally Downloaded, we recently got in touch with notorious business analyst Michael Pachter ahead of the apparent PlayStation 4 announcement scheduled for February 20th. We spoke to him regarding his expectations and perspectives on the PS4 as well as its potential impact on Sony, the next generation and…
Read MoreIf you were to think of Monster Hunter, and turn those big epic monster battles into simple-to-control arcade action battles, you’d be surprisingly close to Tank! Tank! Tank! As an arcade game it lacks for any of the depth of Monster Hunter, of course, but the same focus on gigantic…
Read MoreI 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…
Read MoreI really did expect ZombiU to be more creative than it was in the end. Given all the hype behind it, and indeed my first impressions of the game from a Wii U demo booth, I expected an intense horror game quite unlike what I had ever played before. What…
