iBomber Defense Review

iBomber Defense Review

Tower Defense games on the iOS? That's a first. Well, not really. iBomber Defense for the iPad is a pretty awesome game, but the main reason why I feel that way is because I adore tower defense games... Read More

I Am Alive Review

I Am Alive Review

I Am Alive has had a turbulent history. Announced to be in development in 2008, the game since slid in and out of public consciousness, often being relegated to the status of vaporware, another title ... Read More

SoulCalibur V Review

SoulCalibur V Review

The biggest problem with SoulCalibur V is that it does the exact opposite of what many other cash cow franchises are doing these days- it takes the core mechanics of the formula, and it doesn't dumb t... Read More

Shoot Many Robots Review

Shoot Many Robots Review

Shoot Many Robots is an, uh, interesting name for a 2D sidescroller. When I first heard of this game, I'll admit, I brushed it away thinking it will be generic. The market is flooded with 2D side scr... Read More

Street Fighter X Tekken Review

Unit 13 Review

Unit 13 Review

Unit 13 is a third-person shooter from Zipper Interactive, and just by hearing the developer's name, you can probably guess how the game will look like. Yep, the visual style is a lot like SOCOM 4, ... Read More

SSX Review

SSX Review

SSX Tricky was one of the biggest and brightest titles of the sixth console generation and whilst not the latest title in the series, it's certainly the most memorable and even a whole 10 years on, is... Read More

Mafia Rush Review

Mafia Rush Review

Mafia Rush is a free game for the iOS, and is pretty bad. The main reason is obviously the controls. It's a dual-stick shooter, and you know how much accurate they are. There are four main gameplay m... Read More

Pinball FX2: Epic Quest Review

Pinball FX2: Epic Quest Review

Epic Quest is an RPG themed table for Pinball FX2, and that is quite a weird mix if you ask me. Of course, these RPG mechanics are just for show, and the main attraction is still the pure unadultera... Read More

Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 Vita Review

Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 Vita Review

Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 is a great showcase of the PS Vita's capabilities. The content is basically same like its PS3 brethren, but there are a lot of new control mechanics, and the general nove... Read More

Asura’s Wrath Review

Asura’s Wrath Review

Games like Metal Gear Solid, Uncharted, Final Fantasy and God of War are all deep set in cinematic storytelling- that’s their main purpose, to tell stories and tell them very well. But, contrary to ... Read More

Binary Domain Review

Binary Domain Review

Robots, robots and robots, that’s what you’ll encounter in Binary Domain. I was slightly being dismissive of this game earlier, because it looked cheesy and undercooked, but boy, was I wrong! The... Read More

Catherine Review

Catherine Review

With but a brief glance at the Catherine boxart, you'd be forgiven for presuming that Catherine is nothing more a game of breasts and misogyny and prior to playing the game, that's exactly what I expe... Read More

Smash ‘n’ Survive Review

Smash ‘n’ Survive Review

Let me tell you a secret - I was actually dreading the thought of playing this game, Smash 'n' Survive. There's a reason for that. It's made by an Indian developer. Now, people who don't know what t... Read More

Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning Review

Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning Review

Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning has had the honour of being compared to several esteemed games- like Fable, God of War, World of Warcraft and Elder Scrolls. Developers have been hyping it as the next bi... Read More

Syndicate Review

Syndicate Review

The First Person Shooter genre is so saturated now that we groan every time we even hear of a new FPS game. When it was announced that the 1993 classic strategy franchise was being rebooted, and tha... Read More

Forza Motorsport 4 AMLS Pack Review

Forza Motorsport 4 AMLS Pack Review

There's not much to write about when it comes to monthly DLC that adds new content to the game. What makes this one stand out is the fact that one of my favourite cars - Mazda 787B makes its way to ... Read More

Start the Party! Save The World! Review

Start the Party! Save The World! Review

You'll be pleased to hear that I won't once be mentioning the tagline to a frankly overrated, poorly paced hit US super-hero drama, in this review. Start The Party: Save The World is Supermassive Ga... Read More

Reality Fighters Review

Reality Fighters Review

If you buy a PS Vita, you will receive some AR cards in the box. It's pretty much unmissable. They're can for this game called Reality Fighters. If you own a Nintendo 3DS, then you already know how t... Read More

Everybody’s Golf Review

Everybody’s Golf Review

Everybody's Golf needs no introduction. It's one of the most successful Sony franchises ever, especially in Japan. There is just something about this series that makes you keep coming ... Read More

Mario and Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games 3DS Review

Mario and Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games 3DS Review

Some game series just don't make sense. Sometimes an idea that sounds great on paper fails to have a satisfying execution, sometimes a sequel fails to deliver a new experience over the previous game a... Read More

ModNation Racers: Road Trip Review

ModNation Racers: Road Trip Review

Some would say that the ModNation Racers franchise has always been under the shadow of greater beings, such as Mario Kart, and to an extent, LittleBigPlanet. In fact, a lot of people would say that, a... Read More

Little Deviants Review

Little Deviants Review

Little Deviants is probably the weakest game in the PlayStation Vita's launch line-up. The main objective of this game is to sell you on the Vita's varied control inputs, and BigBig Studios has taken... Read More
