Review by Pierre-Yves L. Code Vein has been a long time in coming. Developed by Bandai Namco, the company decided it was time to make its own Soulsborne instead of simply publishing yet another one. It’s one of the first anime-styled Soulsbornes, and through it we see just how far…
Read MoreReview by Trent P. GreedFall comes from developer Spiders, the team behind The Technomancer, Mars: War Logs, Of Orcs and Men and Bound By Flame. Just like each of those, GreedFall also offers a unique perspective to the genre. It may seem like yet another 17th century-based fantasy at first…
Read MoreReview by Pierre-Yves L. After its initial release, long time fans of the series had but on real complaint about Monster Hunter World: It didn’t have the G-Rank difficulty or any other equivalent to it that other Monster Hunter titles did. Being added in through a truly expansive DLC package,…

Read MoreNews by Matt S. Koei Tecmo is no stranger to the licensed tie-in, having produced any number of Warriors games based on popular anime properties. For its latest one, however, the company has taken a different direction; its Fairy Tale title will be a JRPG, produced by Gust – the…
Read MoreReview by Lindsay M. The brain truly is a phenomenal organ, providing so many answers yet also creating so many more questions about its function. And the brain, like skin, has a tremendously important ability to self-heal. It’s truly quite incredible, and for that reason Headspun becomes a game at…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. The best stories about sexuality and human relationships are often the least sexy. There’s a point where a dive into the relationship between two people, the temptations and challenges they face, starts to become uncomfortably familiar. We can see ourselves in what we’re seeing on-screen, and…
