Review by Pierre-Yves L. The LEGO games have come a long way from TT Game’s first LEGO Star Wars back on the PlayStation 2. With many adventures had and many to come, I think the first title that I have really looked forward to is this one. Being an original…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Hitman is one of those rare few “triple-A” blockbusters that doesn’t treat its players like idiots. And that’s why I like it. Smart and snappy, with a blend of dry and dark humour, Hitman 2 is a fine continuation of the series, and proof that the…
Read MoreNews by Matt S. For the first time in E3’s 24-year history, it won’t have Sony on board. This is because the company is, apparently, looking for “new and familiar ways to delight fans.” “PlayStation fans mean the world to us and we always want to innovate, think differently and…
Read MoreReview by Brad L. The current generation of consoles has become host to a constant barrage of remastered, remade, and upscaled games from the 1990s and beyond.

Read MoreReview by Matt S. Why can’t more games about war be like World War 1 biopic, 11-11 Memories Retold? Rather than bombastic nonsense that functions as barely veiled propaganda and military hero worship, why don’t we have more genuine stories about war? The shattering emotions and the horror that the…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Death Mark offers a very uniquely Japanese sense of horror. Not only because it borrows its stories from very common Japanese urban legends, but also because it weaves into its narrative a deep sense of tragedy and sadness. And it’s brilliant at it. I rarely find…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. As a critic I generally try and avoid reading other reviews and impressions of games before I’ve sat down to do my own review. It’s just a personal preference not to have other people’s ideas floating around my head while I’m thinking of my own. With…
