Devil May Cry 4 Special Edition Review

The Last Classic Capcom Game? Devil May Cry 4 – first released back in 2008 – might not be the obvious choice for a next-gen rerelease. The seven year old title exists in a strange limbo, too young to be considered a classic but definitely not ...[Read More]

Tour de France 2015 Review

Tour De Force? The Tour De France games have been pumped out year after year, with seemingly little to distinguish them. Can the 2015 edition break free from the peloton? Storyline: I have to admit I know very little about the world of professional c...[Read More]

Tales from the Borderlands: A Telltale Games Series – Episode 3 Review

Bordering on greatness? It feels like an age since the second episode of TftB has been released, and checking back, it has. Telltale’s usual monthly release schedule allows some hype to build between releases, whilst not letting you forget about the ...[Read More]

Batman Arkham Knight Review

Send in the Clowns: I really hope Arkham Knight is the last Batman game we get – at least for a long while. It’s a natural finale of everything that developer Rocksteady have been working on and fine tuning since 2009’s excellent Arkham Asylum. What ...[Read More]

Game of Thrones: A Telltale Games Series – Episode 4: Sons Of Winter Review

A Colder Reception: Telltale’s newest episodic series is an important side story to the Game of Thrones narrative proper – and is quickly becoming, in my house at least, as important as the main TV series. I know this because last month my partner go...[Read More]

Magicka 2 Review

Kill your Friends: I played a lot of the original Magicka back when it first hit, and the countless content packages that were trickled out over the years. Its twist on usual co-op fair – a friendly-fire feature that saw you brutally murdering your f...[Read More]

Splatoon Review

Cuter than Cuttlefish: Despite Nintendo proving themselves full of surprises for over thirty years, I was still surprised by Splatoon. I’d seen the pre-release coverage, the Nintendo Directs and the extended play sessions streamed online, but I still...[Read More]
