News by Matt S. NISA has released a new trailer for Disaster Report 4. Showing off more the concept of the game than any particular element of gameplay, it introduces some of the characters, and the situation they’ve got themselves into. In Disaster Report 4, an earthquake has hit the…

Review by Matt S. Pantsu Hunter wants you to believe that it’s offering a nostalgic trip back to your youth. As its very description reads: “Share a heart-to-heart talk, watch a movie together, take a bath, remove a computer virus, help a girl in a tough spot and – if…

Review by Matt S. Designed for – and officially licensed to – the PlayStation 4, 4Gamers’ latest headset pitches itself at a very budget-friendly end of town. Obviously it’s not going to offer an experience comparable to headsets three or four times its price, but I was nonetheless impressed with…

JRPG/Oninaki/PlayStation 4/PS4 Review/Reviews/Square Enix/Tokyo RPG Factory

Review by Matt S. Tokyo RPG Factory has, over the span of three titles, developed a distinct voice in its approach to the JRPG.

Video by Matt S. Yet another round of Dead or Alive 6 costume DLC has landed with us, and this time around it’s beautiful, flowing summer dresses. These costumes actually really impressed me.

Review by Matt S. Imagine, if you will, Super Monkey Ball as a platformer. Only the levels are randomised. And then you’re encouraged to speedrun it. Welcome to Rogue Singularity; a platformer that is going to absolutely brutalise you, and yet, you’re going to keep coming back for more because…
