Let me set the scene. It’s 1999. I was a happy-go-lucky lad with a Nintendo 64, amazed by the bright graphics and colours. The scariest thing that had happened so far was Zelda freezing in the water temple (irony?). I visited my friend’s house. He had a demo disk for the PS1. We played a demo called Silent Hill. I felt a sense of pure terror. I fell in love. Apparently,... (more...)
Wrack, by Final Boss Entertainment, is a new FPS currently under development that looks like a lovingly constructed “throwback” to the nostalgic days of Doom. Your character moves around at break neck speeds, battling enemies with an assortment of futuristic weaponry. The graphics are cell-shaded, meaning they immediately conjure parallels to games like...

It is official, Sonic and his friends are heading back to the track later this year with Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed. Read the details, take a look at the announcement trailer and enjoy the screenshots. Following the success of Sonic & SEGA All-Star’s Racing, Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed brings back a cast of Sega characters, good selection... (more...)
The Silent Hill series has always been at its best when it’s been at its most innovative. Its experiments (e.g. Silent Hill 2, The Room, Shattered Memories) are trusted to be, at their very least, conceptually interesting, and thus refreshing and exciting. All three remained loyal to their past- each took a core fragment of what had come before- but the developers would... (more...)
Prototype 2 is arriving as one of the hottest titles of April. It promises to bring us an explosive and gore-filled open-world experience. Before we continue, be sure to take a quick look at the trailer below. If you haven’t familiarized yourself with the Prototype series so far, here is a summary: Prototype is an open-world game set in New York, starring a man who... (more...)
I surprised myself by how easy it was to make this list. I love Dark Souls but it does have some atrocious moments that made me rage quit, punch my chair, groan, clench my controller and completely despise the game. I’m actually quite astounded by how much critical praise Dark Souls is receiving, since it doesn’t take much for someone to hate this game... (more...)
Dark Souls is not just a difficult video game. Once you embrace the challenge, the patience and skill required to survive simply become instinctual. This forlorn fantasy has more to offer than tough enemies and engaging combat, for Dark Souls is, without a doubt, one of the most magical and awe inspiring games I have ever played. It is filled with surprises, wonderment... (more...)
What I am about to say will most definitely diminish my reputation as someone who is doing a surprisingly good job at pretending to be a credible Video Game Critic, but… …the Lost Planet series is my favourite video game franchise…ever. And yet, the games suck, I can easily admit to that. But I love the Lost Planet games for a very simple reason. It’s not... (more...)
To say that the ending to Mass Effect 3 was polarizing is an understatement. From what I’ve seen, either you don’t care about the conclusion because you weren’t invested in the series, or you were immensely disappointed because you put so much time into the trilogy only for it to have a seemingly lazy pay-off. The key word there being: seemingly. It took me... (more...)
Each year our video game addiction is sated with a fair share of good games, but sometimes great games never see the light of day. Below is a short list of some of the most promising games that we’ll never have a chance to play, because they don’t exist. Ultima Worlds Online: Origin Set to become one of the most stunning MMOs of it’s time this game... (more...)
What the hell kind of ending was that?! Oh woops, sorry, I forgot to make an intro. Mass Effect 3 is the final installment in Bioware’s epic science-fiction trilogy. Commader Shepard is tasked with rallying troops from all over the galaxy to stop ‘The Reapers’; a race of ancient sentient machines that ‘harvest’ life every 50,000 years. Since Mass Effect 2...

Ok, let’s get one thing out of the way first. I LOVE the Ghost Recon games. I like all of the Tom Clancy games, but the Ghost Recon games really do stand out for me. I’m not exactly the biggest fan of these games, but they are the only games I genuinely get excited for when it involves militaristic shooters. With that said, Ghost Recon Online is going to be...

I’ve been playing video games as long as I can remember. This goes back to at least the very early 90s with a very tiny bit from 1989, but I was only 3 then and the memories fade more and more every day! I do remember my first systems; though. It was actually a few systems in very quick succession that started with an Atari 2600 and an NES quickly followed by a Game... (more...)
One of my friends lives about 2000 miles away. We rarely see each other but we keep in touch by playing games together. Several nights during the week we jump on Skype and decide which of the various Free2Play games we’re going to play. We are both very experienced gamers so our options span the gamut of available genres. FPS, TPS, RTS, MMO or something a little... (more...)
MechWarrior Online is an upcoming competitive Mech Combat game being developed by Pirahhna Games. I keep getting more excited about the potential for this game the more I learn about it. From what I can tell it aims to faithfully reproduce the bombastic and strategic combat of the classic Mech Warrior series and intertwine it with modern sensibilities. I have been a... (more...)
