LEGO Creator 3 in 1 Wild Safari Animals Review

When The LEGO Group reached out and asked if we would like to review the LEGO Creator 3 in 1 Wild Safari Animals set, I admit I wasn’t overly enthused. I’m a bit hot and cold on 3 in 1 sets – I think some are fantastic, particularly the houses you can get – but I find most of them don’t peak my interest like other LEGO sets do. I said yes for two reasons. First, LEGO reviews perform really…

Are We Really Doing Handhelds Again?

Remember the PlayStation Vita? That was an awesome little device. Nobody bought it. Sony didn’t support it. Now Sony and Microsoft are working on new handhelds. We’re supposed to be excited.  This time it’ll be different, we’re told. There won’t be any dedicated software. It’ll all be stuff you can play just fine from the comfort of your home. Hell, most of it will be on the Switch 2, if that isn’t just a myth at this point. But THESE…

Windmill Valley Components Overview and Impressions

If there is one thing I know as a person of Dutch descent, it is that there are a few things that you understand are “Dutch” in every way, shape and form. Wooden shoes, Sinterklaas, Dropies to name a few. And if none of that means anything to you, well I completely understand. Two other things that scream “Dutch”? Windmills and Tulips. When I saw Windmill Valley coming from Board and Dice, I knew it was something I needed to…

More Thoughts From Me: Its Almost Morphin’ Time

The Power Rangers was one of my favorite tv shows as a kid. I watched that show every day and even went to see the movie. Soon Digital Eclipse is releasing a brand new Power Rangers game and I’m pretty excited about it. I get nostalgic and try to explain why I’m excited for the new game. Flashback to the 90s: I’m a kid and I’m riding the bus home from school. I can’t wait to see the Power Rangers.…

The Birth of Portable Gaming: A Digital Revolution

In the early 1980s, handheld gaming emerged as a groundbreaking concept that would forever change how people experienced interactive entertainment. The first true milestone was the Milton Bradley Microvision in 1979, a clunky but revolutionary device that paved the way for portable electronic gaming. However, it was Nintendo’s Game & Watch series, introduced in 1980, that truly captured the public’s imagination. These simple yet innovative devices featured single-game LCD screens with basic electronic designs that became instant collector’s items. The…

The Flood Components Overview and Impressions

The Flood is one large and heavy game, but just because a box is packed with goodies doesn’t make those goodies come together in a way that’s fun or entertaining. I have played a few games of The Flood already and can confirm it’s a lot of fun, but that’s not what this article is about – let’s take a look at the game’s various components and see whether they live up to the Kickstarter hype! The Flood was sent…

When I was told that Sonic Generations was the weakest part of this package, I let out an audible sigh. SEGA remasters are always met with these kinds of comments.

9.0 Demon’s Souls

 

You may have heard that Demon’s Souls is pretty tough. That’s not entirely accurate. The truth is that Demon’s Souls is very, very simple. Everything about it is signposted. It wants you to exploit every inch of it. Enemies show what they’re doing from a million miles away. There’s always somewhere to hide, or to run to. And now, with the arrival of the remake on PS5, you have over ...

 

8.0 Walking Dead Season 2

 

Last year, Telltale elevated point and click games to a new level with their first season of the award-winning The Walking Dead. Creating a follow-up to that fantastic set of titles was a difficult task for Telltale, and they mostly succeeded. While there are moments of brilliance, season two doesn’t reach the level of excellence that season one was able to achieve.

 

6.5 NASCAR ’14

 

Racing games can generally be played in a variety of ways. While those that love Gran Turismo the most might play it as a simulator, it's just as easy to experience it as some approximation of Mario Kart, crashing into other vehicles on long bends or swinging onto the grass when necessary. NASCAR '14 is all about tight lines and clever driving, a fact that makes it both very playable and undoubtedly niche.

 

9.0 Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster

 

Cybernet was a video game focussed TV show here in the UK back when the PS2 launched. When they weren't showing and reshowing the opening of Metal Gear Solid 2, they were showing and reshowing clips from Final Fantasy X. Look at the graphics! Look at the characters! And, oh, they've got voices as well!

 

6.5 Pac-Man Museum

 

Video gaming's first yellow circular celebrity has turned 30 this year, and instead of getting trashed with friends Inky, Blinky, Pinky and Clyde, he's taking a trip down memory lane, through the highlights (and low-lights) of his prestigious career.

 

6.5 Killer is Dead

 

Killer is Dead is a hard game to pin down. You play as an executioner for a government agency that hunts out murderers for the general public. It plays a little like something from Platinum, a third-person action game with an anime flair. That flair runs deeper than just the visual style though, and a unique fantastical twist makes it all the more unusual. Expect blood, whimsy, sex, adventure and intrigue.

6.0 Harry Potter Quidditch Champions:...

 

I have loved Harry Potter for as long as I can remember. I love books. I love movies. I love games. As a sports guy, I always enjoyed the idea of Quidditch, even if the sport itself seemed completely absurd. The thing is, to read about Quidditch and to play a game of Quidditch feels like two different things. I was willing to give this game a try, and thanks to Warner Bros. we got that opportunity over the ...

The biggest change to the Borderlands formula in Pre-Sequel - aside from the game's setting, which affects gameplay and aesthetics in a number of ways - are the game's character classes, all based on characters previously seen in the series. These new classes will still serve familiar roles on the battlefield

With the upcoming launch of Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition on Nintendo Switch, we thought we would re-share some of our old Xenoblade Chronicles reviews, starting with Xenoblade Chronicles X on the Nintendo Wii U! If you haven't played this game, and have access to a Wii U, it's a fantastic experience!

 

6.5 Revenant Saga

 

Revenant Saga is rpg developer KEMCO's newest game for the Wii U. I played this game and now I can tell you all about it! Is Revenant Saga a good rpg?

 

6.5 Animal Gods

 

Wii U indie games are starting to become a rare thing. Whenever a new Wii U game comes out, I find myself smiling and hoping that its a good game. Anmal Gods for Wii U came out last week. I have been playing it for review and I'm finally ready to share with what I thought of the game.

 

8.5 Back to Bed

 

One of the best things about Indies is that they are not afraid of being weird. Indies generally take more chances than third party developers and create games that are unique and interesting. Not all of these unique and interesting games are good, but I love how Indies are willing to experiment. Take, for instance, Back to Bed for Wii U. You would not see a third party, maybe not even a first party developer, ...

 

8.0 Plantera

 

If Harvest Moon and a cute 2D tower defense game had a love child, it might look like Plantera for the Wii U and 3DS eshops. Build a garden, add animals, and defend that garden like crazy from outside threats! Plantera sounds like it might be a good game for simulation and tower defense fans…but is it? The Wii U and 3DS versions of Plantera have some differences but the basic gameplay is the same between ...

 
 

4.0 Z-Run

 

To many people, the Playstation Vita is a system known best for only its Indies and its ports. When I saw the trailer for Vita Indie game Z-Run, I was shocked to find out it wasn't a port from a mobile game. With its poor visuals, simple Temple Run style gameplay and lack of depth, I was sure that Z-Run was a zombie re-skin of some dime-a-dozen endless runner, build for mobile technology and quickly ported to ...

 

8.5 Danganronpa Trigger Happy Havoc

 

Danganronpa Trigger Happy Havoc is a zany experience filled with boundless creativity. Developed by Spike Chunsoft (the studio responsible for similar games in the Zero Escape series), and originally released for the PSP all the way back in 2010, Danganronpa has spawned an anime and manga over in Japan before its port to the Vita this year; and it’s easy to see why.

 

8.0 Surge Deluxe

 

The match 3 puzzle genre has been lacking innovation as of late. Thankfully, Futurlab has an extraordinary habit of changing up the ‘norm’ and Surge Deluxe is certainly no exception!!

 

9.0 Tearaway

 

Tearaway is, simply put, a creative gem. It’s a game solely created to showcase the power of Vita’s hardware, and just how pleasant of an experience a videogame can be.

 

8.0 Street Fighter X Tekken

 

Street Fighter X Tekken was kind of a big deal when it was first announced, and perhaps even helped the Mortal Kombat remake to herald in a new wave of fighting titles. Along with its companion title, the long presumed dead Tekken X Street Fighter, Street Fighter X Tekken was going to combine two of the biggest names in fighting, dozens of the most recognisable characters, all within a blended style that meant ...

 

9.5 Persona 4 Golden

 

Atlus has always been known to deliver niche JRPG experiences; games that don’t sell well but are critical darlings. They have plenty of exceptional titles under their belt such as Catherine and Shin Megami Tensei IV, but Persona 4 is quite possibly their finest work yet. The fourth entry in the Persona series originally made its debut on the PS2 back in 2008. The game was met with immense critical reception, so ...

 
 

9.0 Yo-Kai Watch 3

 

Although the Yo-Kai Watch franchise is gaining some traction in the West - more so in Europe and less so in the United States and Canada - there are still many gamers and anime fans out there who know little, if anything, about the franchise itself. To them, the name Jibanyan and Whisper mean nothing, and if you mention the town of Springdale, most people are likely to ask, "Do you mean Springfield, like in the ...

 

9.0 Mario and Luigi: Bowser’s I...

 

In my preview for Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser's Jr's Journey I mentioned that I had never played Bowser's Inside Story before. So when it came time to do my review, I decided to not compare the game to the original. In fact, I decided to not compare the game to previous Mario & Luigi games at all. Basically I wanted to ask: Is Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr's Journey a good game(s)?

 

8.0 WarioWare Gold

 

I’ve been playing video games for a few decades now, and I’m ashamed to admit that I’ve never played a WarioWare game in my life. When the game launched a few weeks ago, I began watching video of our good friend Abdallah Smash, and instantly thought, “That looks like a lot of fun.” Well, now I have played it; what did I think? Let’s dive in!

 

9.5 Dragon Lapis

 

I’ve been enjoying Dragon Lapis for the 3DS a lot. Check out my preview of the game here. And now its time for my review of Dragon Lapis. Is this a 3DS rpg that you’ll want to download? I like how Dragon Lapis starts with a cutscene that gives us background into its world. As the game continues, we get a lot more world building and interesting plot twists. All of the characters in this game are ...

 

8.0 Detective Pikachu

 

Even if you are not a long time fan of the Pokémon franchise, there is one thing you probably do know: Pokémon don’t talk to humans and humans don’t talk to Pokémon. Sure, based on emotions of a Pokémon - or even their actions - a good trainer can determine what a Pokémon is thinking or feeling; but to actually talk to one? That is basically unheard of. So when we learned about the popular Japanese Detective ...

 

7.0 Machine Knight

 

There are not too many developers releasing 3DS eshop games at anymore. Most of the developers have switched over to the Switch. One of the developers that it is still putting out games for the 3DS is KEMCO. Their newest game for the system is called Machine Knight. It is a jrpg. What do I think of it? Read on to find out! Machine Knight has an interesting story, although I do wish it had a little less ...

Over the past week, I have been doing a lot of two different things – playing EA FC 25 and reading previous reviews I’ve written for past soccer titles. And there is one constant across all the reviews I’ve written, at least for the last few years. And that constant is, if you are a hardcore fan of EA FC then purchase this year’s iteration; if you are a casual fan and you own last years game, just ...

Dynasty Warriors Could Be a 2025 GOTY Hit

In a year that’s offering up Grand Theft Auto 6, Death Stranding 2, Avowed, Assassin’s Creed and a new Monster Hunter, Koei’s hack and slash series may not be an obvious GOTY contender.

Queen by Midnight – Quarter Past

That was my feeling when Skyrise landed on my table over the weekend, but despite not having all the deluxified buildings and pieces, the retail version of Skyrise is absolutely stunning! Let’s start with the boring stuff – the cardboard boards you’ll be using to build…

White Castle Components Overview and Impressions

Devir Games makes some truly amazing games, and we’ve had the pleasure of reviewing a whole whack load of them – they all have the same components issue, the fact that there is so much game and without an insert it’s hard to get it all back in the box.
