Review by Matt S. Game developers are still exploring what is possible with with the PlayStation VR technology. It’s going to take some time. This technology is not a simple upgrade to existing gaming hardware; it requires a genuine re-think in how players interact in games, the relationship between the…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Having already reviewed Fate/Extella on the PlayStation 4, there’s not a whole lot that I can add to that review in itself for the Nintendo Switch release. The games are fundamentally the same, but that in itself is noteworthy; while Fate/Extella was previously available as a…
Read MoreReviews by Matt S. The Nintendo Switch is really picking up some steam now. It’s incredible to think that just a couple of months ago we were struggling to understand Nintendo’s approach to the console, and whether there was a market for it. Now, we are quite happy to say…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Namco Museum Collection isn’t what you’d call essential, were it not for one little thing. This package of 11 games from yesteryear is nothing that you haven’t had the opportunity to play, and consume, a hundred times over by now. A couple of the games are…

Read MoreReview by Matt S. Oooooh boy is this review going to be a tough one to write. Soul crushing, even. See, the reality is that contrary to popular belief game critics don’t relish tearing down a game. Real people work on these games, and work incredibly hard on them at…
Read MoreReview by Clark A. Any title released on the Sega Dreamcast in 2015 is probably a labour of love.

Read MoreReview by Matt S. The classical city building simulator is an approach to game design that I’m quite convinced will never die.
