Review by Matt S. Seed of the Dead was previously called “Rape of the Dead”. That should tell you all you need to know about the class of this game. Or, more specifically, its complete lack of class. It’s a game about a zombie plague and you, a dude, running…

Review by Matt S. I’m constantly criticising the way that stuff like Battlefield and Call of Duty handle World War 2. It’s not that I think World War 2 should not be the subject of video games, film, or anything else. It’s that I think there should be a moral…
Read MoreNews by Matt S. Nelke & The Legendary Alchemists is the next new release for the long-running, and dearly beloved Atelier franchise. We knew it was coming out in January in Japan, and now we have the global release date to share! The game releases just a few months later,…

It seems appropriate that at about the same time that the (current) pinnacle of realism in video games – Red Dead Redemption 2 – is released, Killer7 would also have its long-awaited re-release.

Read MoreReview by Ginny W. Naruto is a bit of a household name the world over. Even someone who’s never watched the anime could probably identify a Naruto cosplayer in a crowded room.

Read MoreReview by Nick H. The original Frozen Synapse was an incredibly clever strategy game that initially flew under the radar when it first released seven years ago, but it did gain a loyal following as more people came to appreciate its unique tactical brilliance. Frozen Synapse 2 does a fantastic…
