I love Zen Studios’ approach to pinball. I’ve been playing the company’s games for the past 13 years, and naturally, I was very keen to check out the new Pinball FX (which is actually Pinball FX4). The core pinball action is even better than ever. Sadly, though, there are some real problems with this package… Check out this video for…
It was a surprisingly strong week for horror games this week, with an excellent remaster of a Project Zero game joining the spectacular visual novel by Square Enix, Paranormasight. In reading some of the reviews of these games I was reminded that far too often people treat Japanese and Western…
