Campaigns in Call of Duty have always held a special place in my gaming history. The remake of the original Modern Warfare is still one of the greatest challenges when […]
Death Stranding is one of the most divisive games that has ever been released. Some who bow at the altar of Kojima will buy this and love it unconditionally just […]
Recently big games have been getting a bad press. Ghost Recon Breakpoint is apparently an unfinished mess, Modern Warfare takes nearly a day to install and WWE 2K20 is an […]
Like ‘They Are Billions’ Frostpunk has been a popular strategy game on PC for a while. It has finally made it to consoles so old strategy gamers like me can […]

‘He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into […]
As it’s World Cup year the annual scouting for wonderkids and best young players for 2019 can begin in earnest. Because of the trials of PES master League and needing […]

Shadow Of The Colossus is a fantastic game and an even better remaster. Rebuilt graphically from the ground up for PS4 it is simply stunning and the definitive version of […]
Leaving the Midnight showing of The Last Jedi was a completely different experience than the Force Awakens. Applause and happiness were replaced by conversation. The Last Jedi is a film […]
The knives are out for Battlefront 2 and rightly or wrongly it will stop people playing one of the best gaming experiences of the year.

It has crept up on us slowly but now it is here. Mario Kart 8 and Prey are the last two big releases before the E3 period. Most gamers […]
What really makes this a formative film to me is the way Boyle, taking inspiration from Alien, 2001 and the original Solaris, tried and succeeded with his first effort in the Sci-Fi genre. Unfortunately, because he hadn’t prior success in the field people didn’t view it as kindly as it deserved despite it showing that a director who studies other films of the type can make an original film in his own right to add to the masterpieces.
A week after the dust has settled on the Undertaker retiring at Wrestlemania 33, I suddenly realised this was a milestone for myself. Despite watching wrestling my whole life, The […]
Now I have spent a decent amount of time looking over the hardware of the Nintendo Switch and enough time in the amazing world of Zelda Breath Of the Wild […]
This past week has been spectacular in gaming. Two of the best games in recent years have been released in Horizon Zero Dawn and Zelda Breath Of The Wild. Releasing […]
Horizon Zero Dawn is with us, but there is no point in doing an in-depth review. It is such a good game and the developers Guerrilla were so confident that […]
When the original Halo Wars released, I was hooked. An accessible, simple RTS with an IP I loved on a console. This was the time when only the excellent Tropico […]
Unfortunately, as many thought, the mass amount of PSVR games at launch has not been added to as stock shortage and the lack of profit for developers on the system […]
The tagline outside the cinema read, ‘They woke up for a reason’. Naturally, this led me to expect some form of antagonist in the latest sci-fi drama starring Hollywood darlings Chris […]
SPOILERS FOLLOW Rogue One A Star Wars Story features some of the best environments and special effects ever seen. Unfortunately, there are a few points which are so poorly done […]
Finally, the last of the big four shooters this fall after Infinite Warfare, Battlefield One and Modern Warfare Remastered we come to Titanfall 2. A game, that manages to surprise […]
In the third review of the big four shooters this fall after Battlefield One and Infinite Warfare we get the full HD remake of one of the best first person […]
If you have the time to devote Battlefield One will be the only shooter you need this year. It has a token excellent campaign and the deepest most enthralling multiplayer matches available on the console to date.
In an effort to get PSVR Move controllers, I traded in my PSVITA. With the resulting money, I had intended to get myself some move controllers. Alas, they were out […]
Mafia 3 has landed at a perfect time. With a new GTA not even on the horizon and other open-world games not delivering, Mafia 3 is here to soak up […]
Forza Horizon and the sequel were amazing games. Taking the precision driving from the Forza series and placing it in an open world setting was always going to equal success. […]
When I review any football game, I am immediately reminded of my favourite advertising phrase. ‘If football is your only religion, worship at the ultimate altar.’ That was for PES […]
The first Homefront game, by THQ, was a throwback to the classic 80’s film Red Dawn. Instead of Russians invading the US mainland it was the North Koreans, referred to […]
The first brand-exclusive PPV of the new era delivered a number of crowd-pleasing moments. It delivered with a shorter more focused event that the bloated mess that was Summerslam 2016. Here […]
Deus Ex Human Revolution was a triumphant return for a series long forgotten. When released on the previous generation of consoles, the Blade Runner stylings, and introduction, of multiple pathways […]

With the release of PES 2017, the new football season in full swing and Euro 2016 finished. The savvy player will already have a list of Master League young players […]
After receiving the excellent collector’s edition of this game I have been lucky enough to get an extended playtime with it. It is the perfect Hitman game for me, however, […]

When I played Splatoon, I was excited at the prospect but ultimately disappointed at the end product. A number of Nintendo only traits ruined what could have been a great […]
They Are Billions is a game that I have looked on fondly from afar. Along with the soon to be released Frostpunk, Bad North and Conan Unconquered they have taken […]
There was a choice of racing game to keep you amused over the summer months. F1 2019, Dirt 2.0 and Wreckfest all had their merits, but in the end, Wreckfest […]
