Article by Matt S. I sat down to write a review for Dark Souls Remastered, but then realised that I would be silly to do so. I’ve already reviewed this game twice, and yes, the Remastered version on all platforms has enhancements over the original release back on the PlayStation…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. The first time I put virtual paint to my virtual canvas, as I set out to make a career in the traditional arts, set against the backdrop of modern Paris, I drew the most juvenile thing I could imagine (i.e. a certain part of male anatomy).…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Just about every developer and publisher has a pathological need to release a horror game around Halloween. The problem is that not every horror game actually fits with Halloween. Halloween is a day for ghosts and ghouls and b-grade horror hijinks, sure, but blockbuster zombie things…
Read MoreNews by Matt S. Just yesterday in the Monday morning catch-up coffee news wrap, I wrote about Koei Tecmo’s announcement that Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends Definitive Edition was coming to Nintendo Switch.

Read MoreNews by Matt S. The Caligula Effect is a genuine work of genius. It’s deep, powerful, and philosophically dense, which, on the PlayStation Vita, made it one of those little gems that relatively few people discovered, but within that group, it found some real fans (including me). The Caligula Effect:…
Read MoreRetro by Matt S. Whenever I’m in Japan, I like to pick up a couple of classic Game Boy games from Super Potato, or one of the other brilliant retro stores that are over there. This year was no different, and I wanted to briefly muse on the pick of…
