Review by Matt S. I can’t actually think of a fighting game that is more beautiful than Koihime Enbu. The impression that it leaves, before you even hit that first button, instantly marks this brawler out to be something special indeed. DigitallyDownloaded.net was provided with a copy of this game…

Review by Matt S. This review’s a little late, but that’s okay, because I wanted to use it as an opportunity to explore the response that Star Fox Zero got from quarters of the game criticism community. So it’s going to be an unconventional review, but hey, most of you…

Review by Nick H. The Banner Saga 2 picks up right where the first game left off, in just about every way imaginable. It has the same distinctive visual qualities, the same core systems and follows the story through from the end of the first episode. An argument could be…

Review: Neon Chrome (PC)

10tons Ltd/action/Arcade/Indie/Neon Chrome/PC/PC Review/Reviews/top down shooter

Review by Hamza A. A top down rougelike that involves upgrading, shooting, hacking, and a randomly generated level each time you get terminated?

Preview by Sam M. It has been interesting to see what CD Project Red has contributed to The Witcher 3 following its release. Unlike some studios that develop DLC packs prior to the finishing of the base product, CDP has been adamant on a very different strategy; they create a…

Review by Sam M. There’s something really special about Ori and the Blind Forest. It’s a touching story of friendship and kindness, told through a simplistic story and a beautiful art style. Yet something so simple, and so beautiful is also one of the best games available. While the original…

Review by Matt S. It’s good that SEGA saw fit to remaster Valkyria Chronicles for the new generation of console hardware. Not because it’s necessarily prettier with this new release; the game was already a timeless masterpiece of art direction on the PlayStation 3, and the PlayStation 4 hasn’t enhanced…
