Review by Nick H. Sometimes things that just do not seem like they should mix together, wind up working out beautifully. PopCap Games has knack for this very thing, especially when one considers the success of its hit Plants vs Zombies line defence series. When PopCap announced that it would…
Read MoreReview by Shaan J. CounterSpy is a different breed of game. Sure, there are plenty of other titles that focus on the Cold War, but most other games instead focus on over the top action (which isn’t really synonymous with the Cold War to begin with), or depict the conflict…
Read MoreReview by Shaan J. As much as I have come to enjoy the ever-growing library on the PlayStation 4, a lot of titles released in the past few months have been ports and remakes of older games. These tend to be good games, but also games I have already played…
Read MoreReview by Nick H. A little more than a year after The Last of Us was released to universal acclaim on the PlayStation 3, a remastered version of Naughty Dog’s critically and commercially successful game has landed on the PlayStation 4. As with any “next gen remake,” there are questions…

Read MoreReview by Nick H. Awesomenauts Assemble! takes an almost ‘kitchen sink’ approach to things, tossing in RPG elements, 2D platforming and MOBA principles to create an addicting experience that is both unique but a lot of fun to play. If that sounds like an odd mix of things to put…
Read MoreReview by Nick H. Putty Squad is an interesting mishmash of ideas that come together early to create a different kind of platforming experience, but one that may not be suited to everyone. The hero of this game, Putty, is a little blue blob who can jump, float, punch and…
Read MoreReview by Nick H. Killzone released with serious expectations behind it. After all, along with Knack, it was one of the two retail exclusives the PlayStation 4 had to launch with, and while Knack was at times entertaining, it also fell flat as a ‘next gen’ experience. This puts even…
