Video by Matt S. FINALLY! Finally I can give Marie Rose green hair and she can cosplay as Hatsune Miku, bringing the two greatest things together. Unfortunately, the most recent updates to Dead or Alive 6 haven’t been without controversy, because Koei can’t seem to stop attracting anger about this…
Read MoreVideo by Harvard L. Speed dating for ghosts is one of those funny little games that you’ll start playing, not expecting too much, and ultimately become charmed by its energy and style. It’s simple and minimalist in just about every way, but importantly it’s also a big success in every…
Read MoreVideo by Matt S. As a fan of horror, I was really keen to check Hunt: Showdown out, now that it has finally landed on PlayStation 4.
