Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is one of my favourite games of all time to play but unfortunately it is not for the reasons most of you would normally love a game for. The single player experience in this game is sub-par, which definitely does not help the game out as much as it could have.…
It’s 2135, only 100 years after the asteroid 99942 Apophis had hit our planet Earth and destroyed almost all human life. You are an unnamed hero, an Ark survivor, awakened from stasis in an underground shelter (an Ark). Saved by a local who is quick to “befriend” you and let you know the world has…
The game selection when the PS4 launched, for lack of a better phrase, left a lot to be desired. As such, if you were a PS+ subscriber within the launch window, then you are probably already familiar with the title Resogun.

Releasing on the 100th anniversary of the start of the war, Valiant Hearts delivers a highly involved and emotional story as seen through the eyes of four protagonists. Each playable…
It is no secret that I am a fan of retro video games and because of that I was eagerly anticipating the release of Shovel Knight by Yacht Club Games. Were they able to capture the essence of playing an old school game from the SNES era? I can safely say that for better or…
