I've just finished it. Nit picks and spoilers follow, so be aware before reading on. My thoughts:- The game is far, far better when it treads closely to the original. The redone story segments from the original and the reworked score a...

This has probably been done and if so I apologise, but I couldn't find anything in my search just there. Anyway, my top 3 would probably be: Castlevania: Lords of Shadow  Tetris Effect Hollow Knight I'd love to hear what other peo...

Let me start by saying I adored Ico and Shadow of the Colossus and that The Last Guardian has been a game that I have looked forward to for the longest time. I was that adamant that I wanted to play it that I went out and bought it fro...

I have waited years for a proper turn-based Final Fantasy in the vein of the old classics from the series. It came as a surprise to me when this title was announced to be in that style and as soon as the demo was released I downloaded ...

The 2013 reboot of the Tomb Raider franchise is one of the most successful of recent times and the quality of that earlier release got me very excited for the follow up titled Rise of the Tomb Raider. Sure, it was frustrating having to...

 Hatsune Miku is back for her third appearance on Sony's much maligned Vita handheld and for her first on PS4 with Project Diva X. Anyone who has played any of the previous iterations will find much of the same in this release, wi...

If you are here reading this then you probably already know all about the Hatsune Miku phenomenon. A VR songstress, she took off in a big way and sells out concerts and releases hundreds of tracks per year without actually existing. As a re...

IA/VT Colourful is another notable rhythm game to add to the growing number of similar titles available on the Vita system. Based around the vocaloid IA and produced by Marvelous! it utilises the usual rhythm game mechanics of requiring the...

I've played a lot of games. A lot. Over twenty-odd years I've lost count of the number of titles I've played through. Over that period of time, however, there have been a number of stages or moments in games that have stuck in my mind ...

To the best of my knowledge, Hatsune Miku Project Mirai 2 is set for release in the UK on May 29th on the 2/3DS. However, no matter where I look, I can't seem to find anywhere that is advertising the game for sale yet. Have I missed so...

I post this to get people's opinions after a recent discussion with a friend. Often Nintendo get typecast as a company that caters only for kids - we have the bright palettes of the Mario series, the cutesy Toad and Kirby models and th...

I first played Order 1886 at PAX Prime in Seattle last year. It had been a game that I had been greatly anticipating up until that point but the demo was so poor that it made me question how refined the finished product would be. I usually ...
