SD Gundam Battle Alliance – PS5 Review

Alright, I have a confession to make. Despite Gundam existing for over 40 years, I've never actually experienced anything from this franchise before writing my review. This gives SD Gundam Battle Alliance an excellent opportunity to introduce a total Gundam newbie into an extensive franchise. Let's hope this newest entry can successfully condense content pulled from over 4 decades of potential history. Welcome to "G" Universe Let's be honest, giant robots going up against other big robots will always be cool, no matter what age we may be.

After a few battles, the duo also gets introduced ...

The Dark Prophecy – PS5 Review

The Dark Prophecy is a 2D pixel art point-and-click adventure-type game designed to play on our fond memories of the style of games from the 80s/90s, like Kings Quest, Broken Sword, and Monkey Island, to name a few. The game has been developed by Start Warp and published by Meridian4 who both have offered up this dose of nostalgia, which was released on 28th February 2022 and is available now available to buy on Steam. Gotta foresee it to believe it I always gravitate back to point-and-click games, as they always take you back to where brainpower was key to advancing through the game, not just solely skill. Combining items and discovering items that maybe could work with something you discovered previously. It's a great feeling that revelation and, dare I say it, thrill when you make tha...

Developers Spiders bring us Steelrising. A souls-like title, developed on their in-house Silk Engine, and published by Nacon/BigBen Interactive it was released on the 8th September 2022.

Wonder Boy Collection – PS4 Review

When we think of iconic Sega characters, it's easy to ignore all the ones overshadowed by Sonic the Hedgehog. We may also think of Alex Kidd, Kiryu from Yakuza, or Ryu Hazuki from Shenmue, but rarely do with ever think of Wonder Boy. That's a sad fact because the series has seven main games. That doesn't include the three recent remakes. Six of these games were released on various systems between 1986 and 1994. The last released in 2018, Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom. So, what do we have in the Wonder Boy Collection? Wonder Boy Collection - A Wonderful Journey Back To The Past The Wonder Boy Collection has been carefully curated to include four of the best arcade and Mega Drive ports from the olden days.
