Review by Nick H. So when I first heard about Super Motherload, I was at a bit of a loss. It is not often that a new console release relies on a nearly seven year old Flash game as the basis of a launch title, but that is essentially what…
Review by Matt S. I suspect this game is going to annoy Nintendo fans. Without crossing into plagiarism, Oceanhorn is a faithful recreation of the basic Zelda aesthetic and gameplay structure, and not only that but it brings more new ideas to the famous formula than most modern Zelda games…
Review by Michael B. Although it may have been conceived as a standard action-filled plot, the story of Deadfall Adventures belongs firmly in the “lost world” fiction sub-genre.

Review by Matt S. You would expect a game that has been written by the guy that did Adventure Time to be a little crazy, and Stick It To The Man is indeed a little crazy. It’s a game that really revels in being self aware and providing quite juvenile…
Interview by Matt S. Of all the third party developers working on the Nintendo Wii U, there is one that stands out as going out of its way to take the unique features of the console; the Australian porting house, Straight Right. When the Wii U launched Straight Right gave…
Review by Nick H. The PlayStation 4 is a very serious-looking piece of hardware with a great deal of potential. At launch, however, it does feels somewhat unrealised. For a system that claims it is all about the games, the release would have felt a little bit stronger if it…
