Review by Nick H. Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition is a sharp fighting game that finally gives us the Street Fighter V experience we probably should have had since the start. When Street Fighter V first released, I was torn over it. Visually it was fantastic, and the actual fighting…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Beholder left me cold. Given that the intent of the game is to depict a dystopian nightmare pulled right from every image we’ve ever had of socialist eastern Europe, “leaving me cold” was probably the intention, but there are games that have done this theme better,…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. There’s a natural synergy between the city builder, and space colonisation. The entire appeal of a city builder is taking a wide, empty space of land and then building it up by adding buildings and people so that it that nothingness can become a thriving metropolis.…

Before “licensed” became a dirty word, before Mario and Sonic were the only game characters still religiously attending every competition, you could set your clock by hastily put-together games…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. It had to happen. After 2017 was a year of almost endless quality in terms of the games releases, and indeed it is hard to argue that it isn’t the best year of all time for the industry, one of the last games I played for…
Read MoreReview by Pierre-Yves L. Dead Rising 4 is back. In a surprise turn of events, Frank has made his way over to Sony’s console with a beefy package including plenty of DLC, giving players a new way to experience the original title as well as some good old fashioned minigolf!…
