Review by Matt S. The first Hatsune Miku: Project Diva f kickstarted a new obsession for me. I loved the game so much that I bought a load of Miku CDs and goods on my recent trip to Japan. I’ve even gone and purchased the Miku software, and if I…
Read MoreReview by Clark A. Senran Kagura is a franchise known for its busty women just as much as its frantic, fast-paced brawls. The series has raised many an eyebrow for reasons you can decipher within seconds of viewing just about any screenshot, but it has always struck me as being…
Read MoreReview by Nick H. Grand Theft Auto V is a title that, like The Last of Us Remastered, was ahead of its time. And because of this they are much more at home on the PlayStation 4, despite not having been initially designed with the current generation of consoles in…

Read MoreReview by Matt S. Assassin’s Creed: Unity has problems. And I’m not just talking about its bugs, because frankly those things add a level of unintentional comedy to the game that adds value to it. I wanted to break the game just to experience them, and I’m actually going to…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Forget Assassin’s Creed: Unity (well, don’t, our review for that game is coming soon, and we want you to read it). Rogue is the Assassin’s Creed game to buy this year. Actually, aside from Liberation, it’s a strong candidate for the most creative game in the…
