Review by Sam M. It’s really wonderful when you load up an indie game for the first time and you’re immediately intrigued by the world that has been created for you. LUFTRAUSERS is brought to you by the same team that created Ridiculous Fishing, undoubtedly one of the best iOS…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Here’s why I love Hatsune Miku; she represents truly democratic music making. For the cost of a piece of a software (about $100 Australian for the base vocaloid software, and then $150 for the Hatsune Miku voice plugin), anyone can take a now-iconic music “voice” and…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. The first Dynasty Warriors on the PlayStation 4 isn’t a main numbered Dynasty Warriors game. The Xtreme Legends subtitled games have traditionally acted as “expansion packs” for the main numbered Warriors games, in that they offer much more content without changing any of the fundamentals of…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. It must be a tough act to follow up the Disgaea games. That series of tactics JRPGs is so finely balanced, complex, and ultimately rewarding that any game made “from the same team as Disgaea” was always going to be exposed to some serious scrutiny from…
Read MoreReview by Nick H. When you see the name Ninja Gaiden, certain expectations spring to mind. My own history with the series dates back to enjoying the simple side scrolling arcade brawler in very difficult NES titles.

Read MoreReview by Matt S. I find it amusing that Final Fantasy X is one of the most fondly remembered games in Square Enix’s near-eternal series, when thematically it shares so much in common with the Final Fantasy XIII trilogy, some of the least fondly remembered games in the series. Thematically…
Read MoreReview by Shaan J. While I don’t often find myself playing your typical zombie horror often, there’s been an evolution of the genre over the last few years that’s hard to miss, even for a casual such as myself. While the shuffling undead used to serve as moving targets, newer…
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 Matt S. When it came to the first Dark Souls, I loved the game while not really liking it. As much as that sounds like a contradiction, I can explain. Dark Souls was a brilliant game with near-perfect level design. It featured a truly difficult but rewarding difficulty…
