Read MoreI’ve yet to lose a match in Matchpoint Tennis, and that’s the game’s one substantial flaw. Unfortunately, that one issue effectively ruins it. What’s the point of a sports game that is so lacking in difficulty that there’s no risk of a loss? The entire genre is meant to be…
Read MoreThe launch date for Sword and Fairy: Together Forever is imminent; we’ll have our hands on the western console version within a month!
