Driveclub had a rocky start, that's for sure, but now it's a great racing game that I personally love. I had yet to use the club feature until recently when I thought it might be nice to connect with fellow members and visitors of Dest...

So, as you all well know, the 20th Anniversary PS4 was limited to a production run of 12,800 in order to celebrate 20 years of great games on the Playstation platform. The USA got some, and so did the UK, and other countries, too!&nbs...

Welcome one and all to 'Ben Grady's Games of 2014', sponsored by YOU, the loyal fans. It's been a fun-filled, exciting year in gaming, so let's get down to it!   Alien: Isolation I've only got as far as the medical bay section in...

I've recently been playing through GTA V for the second time. The first time I didn't really think much of it and generally passed it off as average, but this time I've grown to like it a lot more. My second playthrough also encouraged...

Recently I needed to transfer some old Sony Hi8 video tapes onto a contemporary format, all videos of my childhood. This proved to be the perfect excuse to spend money on an Elgato Game capture HD, and thus I would finally make a foray...

Vib-Ribbon was released on PSN in Europe last week, and as soon as it became available I bought and downloaded it. Before even that 25mb download had finished I had created and burnt my own playlist to disc. Below is my first playlist...

I'm a bit of a sucker for progress in games. That is to say, I hate it when I have to repeat things. Bioshock 2: Minerva's den made my PS3 freeze and as a result I lost roughly ten minutes of progress once. That was six months ago and ...

Back again, for the very second time. Here's my last-gen port report for all of you poor bastards still stuck on the machines of yesteryear. This time it's 'The Evil Within', another horror game for October, but is the performance as ...

UPDATE: Here's a video of a game-stalling bug which causes Ripley to fall through the floor, I'm not aware of any other instances but something to consider; this was recorded on the 1.0 release (skip to 4:50):  I've now had my '...

In this age of modern military shooters, single-button combat mechanics and increasingly frequent checkpoints, it's easy to become accustomed to the simpler, dumbed-down gameplay that has become the norm rather than the exception in wh...

Back before I began reading about games on great sites like Destructoid (ahem), I walked into a shop one day and saw a shiny cover for a new game that had recently come out for my new PS3. It had one of those shiny cardboard covers wit...

Super Mario what? Castlevani-huh? N6-for what?    As my terrible wordplay above demonstrates, I'm relatively new to gaming compared to most people, as I perceive it, on this website. My first console was in fact the Game boy colour, the spe...
