September 27, 2013

Preview by Matt S. I was able to get some hands-on time with Tecmo Koei and Keiji Inafune’s upcoming Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z. It’s a game that didn’t really appeal to me beforehand – it’s another zombie game, after all. But then I started to play and something happened. I…

We love Might & Magic: Duel of Champions at Digitally Downloaded. In fact, true story – on those nights where my extreme insomnia has me awake at 1am in the morning, the timing has been just perfect for some heated battles of cards with Nick from our US team. So…

Review by Andrew M. I grew up on console gaming, especially loving the fighting game genre. Sinking many hours with my mates into Mortal Kombat on the SNES, Street Fighter on the SEGA Mega Drive and Super Smash Bros on the Nintendo 64, it started a huge appreciation for the…

Review: Crazy Chicken Pirates (iPad)

Apple/Crazy Chicken Pirates/iPad/Reviews/shooting gallery/Teyon

The Crazy Chicken series (or Moorhuhn as it is known elsewhere) is one that lends itself perfectly to the iPad given its sheer popularity and success amongst casual gamers. A shooting gallery game seems even more appropriate given the iPad’s screen size and touch screen input. Sure enough, Crazy Chicken…

The folks at Nnooo have been busy. It has only been a few short months since the developer announced it was taking a step into publishing in order to bring Cubemen 2 to the Wii U. Now it has taken on its second publishing project; the very high quality Aussie…

Review: FIFA 14 (iPad)

Review by Matt S. Thank goodness EA got this one right. After the free-to-play travesty otherwise known as Madden 25 on the iPad I was so very concerned that FIFA 14 would be similarly depressing when it was announced to be a free-to-play game. But it isn’t. In fact, this…

Review: The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD (Wii U)

adventure game/Nintendo/Reviews/The Legend of Zelda Wind Waker HD/Wii U/Zelda

Since its unveiling at Nintendo Direct in January, I couldn’t help but feel a remake of Nintendo’s Game Cube classic, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, was a bit pointless. Numerous other titles could have used the high-definition treatment and Wind Waker’s original release presentation holds up better than…

Review: Lone Survivor: The Director’s Cut (Vita)

September 26, 2013

Curve Studios/Indie Game/PlayStation/PlayStation Vita/PSN/review/Reviews/Sony/Survival Horror/vita

Review by Sam M. I’m often intrigued by games that try to offer more than just an enjoyable experience. When something comes along that has solid gameplay, but also brings with it a deep set of undertones, it makes the venture into the game much more worthwhile. Originally released last…

Review: Magic 2014 – Duels of the Planeswalkers Expansion (PC)

Review by Nick H. Reviewing an expansion is always a difficult thing to do. Generally speaking, they do not stack up quite as well in value when comparing the expansion to a base game. That is the same with the new expansion for Magic 2014. I reviewed the original game to…
