Preview by Pierre-Yves L. The original Panzer Tactics was released back in 2007. Given that is does have such limited brand value after all these years it was a little surprising to see that it would be getting a HD makeover for both PCs and the Apple iPad in the…

Opinion/PlayStation/PlayStation Vita/sales figures/Sony

Opinion by Matt S. It’s no secret that the PlayStation Vita is, in commercial terms, a struggling console. In March, for instance, it only sold 10,000 units in America, according to NPD data. Though there are some extenuating factors that come into that woeful number, such as a new Vita…

Review by Jim S. If you like Texas Hold ‘Em poker, then Governor of Poker is a decent game and at a cheap price. Which will be fine for some people, but there isn’t much more to it than that. When you start playing you’ll be asked to pick between…

News by Matt S. Dragon Age is a big deal. Despite the second in the series being quite disappointing, the sheer quality of the original, released back in 2009, is enough that Dragon Age: Inquisition is right at the top of our “to play” lists. And now we have a…
