Even the Blade Runner version of 2019 looks like a dream compared to 2022. No pandemic, no crazy politics – just murder robots and really bad pollution. Oh, and new coke. So visiting it in video game format for the first time in 20 years felt like it was going to be a real treat. And in many ways it was. This enhanced edition of the original PC point and click game was a labour of love for the developers…

Growing up I was a massive Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle fan, and yes I mean the old show. I’m part of that generation, where we would get personal pan pizzas from Pizza Hut and even bought the musical album they put out as well as the tour video…I had it all, tons of figures, bed sheets, and video games. The Ninja Turtle video games have always held a special place in my heart, especially the arcade ones. Back when arcades…

Want to feel nostalgic for the good old days? Be a PlayStation Plus subscriber in Europe and suddenly it’ll feel like the year 2000 all over again. Message boards are full of excited people analysing the minute details of Sony’s new subscription service. Japanese and American fans are comparing lists, celebrating engorged backlogs, and wondering what fantastic PS1 and PS2 games will be coming next. And us here in Europe are watching from afar, like the DnD King at a…

Dungeon Defenders: Awakened is co-op Tower Defence combined with epic Action RPG combat. Which to me definitely sounded like an odd blend for sure. Back in the day when I would do a lot more PC gaming, I would often really enjoy tower defence games, something about them was relaxing and almost therapeutic. This is not quite the same. While at it’s core foundation it’s definitely a tower defence, you select the types of traps, shields, whatever you want to…

Sony’s new subscription model is live in both North and South America today! Are you still confused with the new structure and pricing? If so, we got you covered. First up is Playstation Plus Essential – this is basically what Playstation Plus was already, access to online gaming, exclusive discounts, cloud gaming and a couple of free games monthly for PS4 and PS5.  There are no changes for anyone in this plan already and pricing remains the same: PlayStation Plus…

Rose-tinted glasses have hurt the discourse around The Last of Us: Part I, the pretentiously named remake of the original PlayStation classic. I enjoyed it too back in 2013. I enjoyed it less this decade. In the last ten years, games have changed enormously. Naughty Dog games have changed enormously. The Last of Us feels old. Even putting the remaster in 4k can’t change the cobwebs in the level design. I’m taking the comments about The Last of Us but…

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Shredder’s Revenge finally has a release date! June 16th. Not only that but it had a new character revealed and a new mode too. Check out the Summer Game Fest trailer below. During Summer Game Fest today, it was revealed that Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Shredder’s Revenge would be coming out on June 16th. And this was at the end of a trailer that shown off some new aspects of the game. For instance, it was…

Playstation had an all-new State of Play today. And it was…well it was okay. It wasn’t the worst State of Play they’ve had nor it was it the best. There were three big announcements though that really saved it. Of course, the game that put it over the top was Final Fantasy 16! But what about the other two? Let’s talk about today’s State of Play! WOW. Did you see that Final Fantasy 16 trailer?! That was pretty amazing right?…

The first look at Sonic Frontiers has proven to be quietly popular with fans – it is a Sonic game after all. Panic comes later. The disappointment traditionally comes with every subsequent trailer. And then even with release. It is a Sonic tradition. Personally, I hope this one bucks the trend, but we’ll have to wait and see. I feel slightly more expert than most on this topic. Long-time readers (Hi Mom) will know my wife and I are in…

This morning, rumors began to swirl around the brand new Fable game being developed by Playground Games. The rumor is that because of an inability to work with the current engine, the development team has had to scale back the quality of the game. Rumors are just that, rumors. But it does highlight one major problem with the video game industry - the announcement of games too early.
