    Resident Evil is back. Four years since its’ last numbered instalment, the classic zombie killing, key finding, door opening franchise has returned in full force with Resident Evil 7.

    Defending Dead Space 3 (PS3, Xbox 360, 2013)

    A rule of writing suggests that things are often better in threes. That’s why we have the Three Little Pigs, The Three Stooges, and, of course, the BLT sandwich, which are all obviously good things. However, when it comes to popular entertainment, the Rule of Three often doesn’t apply. That’s why we have The Matrix […] More

    Revisiting King Kong: The Official Game of The Movie (PS2,2005)

    Let’s face it: licensed movie games used to always get a bad rap. We were so optimistic about them, eager to slot them into our consoles and enter the exciting world of the latest blockbuster.

    Day of The Tentacle Remastered Review (PS4)

    If there’s one thing that Sonys’ PS Plus subscription service is good for (apart from, of course, online multiplayer), it’s for persuading players to give some more underrated games a try. We’re creatures of habit, after all, and it’s so easy to just pick up the latest AAA explodey/shooty blockbuster without casting a thought for the little […] More

    Virginia Review

    It’s funny how we take speech for granted in most games. In story driven titles like Life Is Strange,The Walking Dead, or even the lengthy Mass Effect trilogy, choosing the right dialogue choices is a key gameplay mechanic.

    Agent 47 has been lying low for most of the summer, only poking his head out for the odd Elusive Target and a few Summer Bonus Episodes.

A seventh title in the classic franchise is shambling onto current-gen in early 2017, and promises to take a fresh new direction. Subtitled Biohazard, Resident Evil 7 will […] More
