Review by Jim S. It’s been a good six years since the last Bomberman game was released, but it’s good that the series, which kicked off way back in 1983, is still kicking around. I always liked Bomberman games, though the series has flagged a bit in recent years, with…
Read MoreReview by Harvard L. Before I start actually assessing the game based on its merits, I think perhaps it’s reasonable for me to sulk a little about what the game isn’t, and what I wanted the game to be. I wanted 1-2-Switch to be bundled with the console. I wanted…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. I recorded some footage of me singing along to We Sing. One of the tracks in the game is Eternal Flame by The Bangles. That there is my tune. I sing it virtually every time I go karaoke (the ultimate drinking event if ever there is…

Read MoreReview by Pierre-Yves L. To quote a very interesting and wholly unserious movie that you should probably watch, even if you don’t enjoy it, “if you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball”. In a lot of cases this statement holds true for our heroes in one of…
Read MoreThe Apple TV has become a real hit of a game console in my household, already, as a spiritual successor to the Wii. Though Apple’s mandate that all games released on it must be compatible with the limited (from a gameplay point of view) remote control, for the purpose of…
Read MoreWhenever a kart racing game comes along, I always approach with trepidation. Brands and online multiplayer might appeal to some players, but to me, there’s no enjoyment in a kart racer unless the tracks are solid. A good kart racing game has tracks that are intricate, enjoyable and above all,…
Read MoreI love trivia, quizzes, and all that stuff. In fact, one of the best things about not working from an office is that every weekday I get to indulge myself during daytime TV to watch the brilliant British quiz show, The Chase. In fact, if I ever start working from…
