Review by Matt S. The base Warriors Orochi 4 is a cracking game. Bringing together 170 characters from Koei Tecmo’s Samurai Warriors and Dynasty Warriors series, with some original characters and fresh new faces, it was a brawler that was pure fantasy and fan service for anyone who loves the…

Video by Matt S. I came to Koei Tecmo’s Warriors series quite late – my first title was actually the Wii’s Samurai Warriors 3. Since then, though, I’ve not missed a single release. Truth is, I love the Warriors series, and I never seem to get bored with it. Each…

Review by Matt S. Anyone questioning the wisdom of having so many games being ported to Nintendo Switch, with minimal additions or changes, should perhaps consider that not everyone has had the chance to play the original releases. Case-in-point, for whatever reason I had never played Code: Realize. With it…

Review by Matt S. I love Hatsune Miku. I know that’s stating the obvious, and anyone reading DigitallyDownloaded.net knows just how much I really, really love Hatsune Miku, but as far as I’m concerned, a Miku game really has been the one missing gap in the Nintendo Switch’s otherwise stellar…

Platinum Games/PlatinumGames/PlayStation 4/PS4 Review/Reviews/Sega/Shooter/Vanquish

Review by Harvard L. It’s amazing that Vanquish in 2020 is celebrating its tenth anniversary: a game which once was difficult to track down, yet revered by those who had played it. It’s a game which seemingly predicted the direction that third-person shooters would take over the next decade, championing…
