PERSONA 3: DANCING IN MOONLIGHT / PERSONA 5: DANCING IN STARLIGHT

Review Posted 11|Dec by Shane K. Firth


SLAVE TO THE RHYTHM

Persona 5 has one of the greatest soundtracks, not just in video games, but in
anything – that's a strong place to start for a rhythm game. That being said, I
usually avoid rhythm games like the plague - turns out I just needed one with
music in it that I already love.

CIVILIZATION VI (SWITCH)

Review Posted 10|Dec by James Farley


HANDHELD GODLINESS

The Civilization series has been part of my life since the PC release of the
second game way back in 1996. It was partly responsible for all the problems I
had with revising for exams as the urge to have ‘just one more turn’ was always
too much. My obsession with the game became so great that I used to arrange LAN
games with friends and we’d sometimes play for over 24 hours, forming alliances,
breaking them and trying to ensure world domination for our respective nations.
To this day I would maintain that the game taught me more about the key
development points of humanity than I ever absorbed in school. I learned not
only the importance of irrigation of land but also why nations must carefully
balance scientific research with the accumulation of wealth in order to stay
ahead of their rivals.

SEGA MEGA DRIVE CLASSICS - SWITCH

Review Posted 5|Dec by James Farley


A MEGA DRIVE DOWN MEMORY LANE

I remember the first time I saw a SEGA Mega Drive. It was a thing of beauty
compared to the blocky, but functional, SEGA Master System that I had won in a
Rice Crispies competition. It would be several years until I would be able to
own one for myself. I still have very fond memories of the machine, coming home
from school with friends and playing two-player games like Streets of Rage and
T2: The Arcade Game.

SPYRO REIGNITED TRILOGY

Review Posted 4|Dec by Shane K. Firth


FEEL THE BURN

Something strange happened when I started the Spyro Reignited Trilogy - before
the game started I couldn’t remember anything from the original, but as soon as
the intro finished I was off! Almost on auto-pilot, I swept through the first
world as if some unseen hand was guiding my way.

HITMAN 2

Review Posted 19|Nov by Rob Wood


BALD, BEAUTIFUL AND BIGGER THAN EVER

The board game Mouse Trap has a lot to answer for. For the climax of the game to
work perfectly, it required careful manipulation of a man on a diving board,
tightening of elastic bands, careful positioning of a metal ball (usually lost
under a sofa within the first week after Christmas) and surgeon-like dexterity
to balance the cage. The payoff to all this handiwork was extremely satisfying
in those pre-video game days but once you’d seen the trap in action, it was
never quite as exciting again.

THE COUNCIL: EPISODE 4: BURNING BRIDGE

Review Posted 1|Nov by James Farley


A NARROWING OF GENERALISTS

TellTale Games is dead and once again I am worried about the future of narrative
driven games. Sure, there has been a general increase in quality of story in
games over the last five years, but purely narrative-based games once again seem
to be under threat.

VALKYRIA CHRONICLES 4

Review Posted 26|Oct by Shane K. Firth


LET SLIP THE SQUADS OF WAR

After last year’s Valkyria Revolution left a sour taste in my mouth I despaired
for the future of the franchise. Now comes a proper sequel to the beloved
strategic JRPG in the form of Valkyria Chronicles 4. But is it enough to right
this franchise’s course?

YAKUZA KIWAMI 2

Review Posted 21|Sep by James Farley




Now that the Yakuza series appears to have found a reasonably dedicated
following outside of Japan Sega seems intent on releasing remastered versions of
the game at a steady pace. It's only a few months ago that I finished playing
the ‘last’ entry in the series, Yakuza 6: The Song of Life.

MARVEL'S SPIDER-MAN

Review Posted 17|Sep by Rob Wood


NO FLIES ON THIS GAME

The problems that face many super heroes usually include creating a formula that
can stop a deadly virus or deciding how to block that volcano which threatens to
wipe out a small country or which fist to punch a giant world-destroying robot
with. Most cape-wearing godlike beings aren't too concerned about how to scrape
together next month's rent or considering why they can't balance their hero
lifestyle and keep a girlfriend. You don't often see Superman struggling with
sleep deprivation and failing a chemistry exam. These are just the sorts of
situations that appear regularly in Marvel's Spider-Man and Peter Parker's (aka
The Amazing Spider-Man) humanity and real world issues are the exact reasons I
personally love the character and why he has remained a favourite for many comic
fans for the last sixty-five years.

LEGO THE INCREDIBLES

Review Posted 26|Jul by David Turner


A DAD'S-EYE VIEW

I've managed to avoid the world of LEGO games up until now.

Not that I've been trying to. I've always loved the idea of them. A gentle
parody of a beloved series is right up my street. It's just none of them have
been based on a franchise that could justify me sitting down and spending time
with a kids game.

PODE

Review Posted 19|Jul by James Farley




Couch co-op games have recently begun to come back in style. For a while it felt
like they were gone for good as developers began to focus almost entirely on the
online experience. However, a new breed of independent developers are filling
the gap left by the bigger publishers with experiences that can only be played
by people in the same room. 'Henchman and Goon's' Pode reminds me to a great
extent of a rather forgotten PS2 game released early in the console's cycle,
Kuri Kuri Mix. Both games focus on navigating platforms cooperatively whilst
solving puzzles. However, Pode's design is significantly more forgiving,
although its puzzles are rather more esoteric.

FORGOTTEN ANNE

Review Posted 21|Jun by Shane K. Firth


THERE'S AN ACTUAL CITIES OF GOLD REFERENCE IN HERE

A sock carelessly forgotten under the bed - that is how Forgotton Anne's
unforgettable story begins. The world is a busy place and we lose possessions
all the time, but what happens to those things? That shoe you saw in the middle
of the road that isn't there the next time you walk by? Let me introduce you to
The Realm.

ONRUSH

Review Posted 14|Jun by David Turner


OVERWATCH ON WHEELS

Not many games instantly grab my attention in an overwhelmingly positive way.
The last game to do so was Titanfall. I played it at an Expo and it was as if
everything that the game was trying to do poured straight into my head.

SHANE SUCKS AT EVERSPACE

Feature Posted 8|Jun by Shane K. Firth


BUT HE THINKS IT'S PRETTY NEAT ANYWAY

As someone who reviews video games I face a unique conundrum - what do I do if I
suck at a game I'm reviewing? If I was playing it for my own amusement I could
just give up and move on, but that doesn't cut it when you have copy to get out
the door.
