Microsoft Xbox One/parlour game/Pool/Pure Pool/Reviews/sports game/VooFoo Studios/XB1/Xbox One review

Review by Nick H. Pool is a very strategic game. It’s not just that there are the various angles and shots a person can play, but as with poker, it’s more important to consider your opponent than what is in front of you. If I do not think I can…

Review by Matt S. I really wasn’t going to give in to Disney Infinity 2.0. As much as I enjoyed the first, it’s a reality that these games are a killer on the wallet, and the idea that the game would offer a whole load of new miniatures was something…
