Reviews by Matt S. and Nick H. Welcome to the latest batch of short ‘n sweet reviews, where we look at a number of games that we have been playing that we just haven’t got the time to do give full reviews to. These aren’t necessarily bad games – not…
Read MoreReview by Matt C. This decade’s surge in indie game popularity and the growing accessibility of the tools and knowledge needed to make games have been wonderful for opening the door to games from all corners of the globe. It wasn’t long ago that game development was focused almost entirely…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. People often criticise EA’s sports games for only showing the most minimal of changes from one game to the next. And okay, that may well be true. But at least with EA’s games, the basis is strong enough that, even if you do think that each…
