Terry has finally made his way onto PlayStation in his comical adventure, Tiny Terry's Turbo Trip. Originally released on Steam last year (check out our PC review here), Tiny Terry can now cause chaos on PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch as of February 13th 2025. Join me as I explore the wacky world of Spranklewater and help Terry achieve his dream of going to space.

After accepting a job as a taxi driver, purely for the car of course, Terry can begin his mission. This introduction to some characters of Tiny Terry's Turbo Trip immediately sets the tone for the humour and dialogue of the game.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 – PS5 Review

The original Kingdom Come: Deliverance was released back in 2018. With all the time that has passed since then, how has Warhorse Studios expanded on such an iconic game? Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 sees us carry on Henry's journey of revenge. But how enjoyable is that journey for the player? Let's take a dive into the 15th Century and find out! Gritty, Gruesome, Glorious With a rich open world, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is one of the most detailed RPG's that I've played. But is it a good follow on from the first, or should it have been left? Gameplay Having sold over 2 million copies in 2 weeks, you may believe that Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is a perfect game. Well, in my opinion it isn't. Not for me anyway. I've been playing for quite a while and I feel that I've not really scratc...

Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to close the book on the Momodora series of games, with Momodora: Moonlit Farewell. After spanning 5 games and almost 15 years, developer Guilherme Melo Martins aka rdein has decided to conclude the story with this latest entry. It's not often that I pick up a game at the end of a series without having played previous games, but in this case, Moonlit Farewell looked too good for me to pass up. Farewell, Momodora, I Hardly Knew Ye The Black Bell tolls ominously 13 times, beckoning death and darkness. Momo Reinol, high priestess of the village Koho, must track down the bellringer to stop the onslaught of demons.

Tails of Iron 2: Whiskers of Winter – PS5 Review

Following up on the success of Tails of Iron, Manchester based Odd Bug Studio has developed and released a sequel, Tails of Iron 2: Whiskers of Winter. Published by United Label, it was released on 28th January 2025 on PC (Steam), PlayStation 4/5, Xbox One/Series S&X, and Switch. You can read our review of the first game in the series here. Whiskers of Winter by Stuart R.R. Little The story begins with a little history lesson. In the not too distant past, The North had fought a vicious war against the Darkwings, The War of The Rift. Eventually, the warden of Winter's Edge had done enough to win that war, and peace had followed. A long enough peace for the Rats of The North to forget about the Darkwings. Unbeknownst to them, their enemy had been rebuilding strength, and now once a...

Codex Lost – PlayStation 5 Review

Feathers and magic await in Freemana's new souls-like magic game Codex Lost and is currently £19.99 on the PS Store. I was super excited to get a hold of this game, as I've been waiting for someone to make a magic-focused souls-like game. I also like owls quite a bit which is definitely a selling point for this game. This new semi-open world game introduces you to different types of magic and a story of bosses with too much power. Codex Lost Float like a butterfly, sting like a bird curator with lightning magic I'm a big souls fan so I knew what I was getting myself into when I downloaded Codex Lost, but how well does it run and is it a true souls-like? Gameplay Codex Lost introduces you to the Curator and the story through an opening cutscene. As the chosen Curator, it is up to y...

NINJA GAIDEN 2 Black – PS5 Review

Wow, KOEI TECMO, First Dynasty Warriors and now a stealth drop for NINJA GAIDEN 2 Black. It returns with a new engine and newer, better visuals. Once again, step into the tabi (shoes) of Ryu Hayabusa. As he aims to stop the return of the Great Archfiend at any cost. If you’re looking for a fun and challenging hack & slash game, then you can pick it up on the PSN store for £39.99. A side note for those unaware they did also announce NINJA GAIDEN 4. Warning! This article contains GIFs with flashing images. Those of the Dragon lineage are not so easily forgotten. I have played the franchise NINJA GAIDEN before and specifically this title twice. Once was on PSvita and another time a little more recently with the PS3 Remastered collection. The gameplay is something I enjoy, but the c...

FREEDOM WARS Remastered – PS5 Review

Thanks to Bandai Namco, we get to see the return of FREEDOM WARS. Originally released back in 2014 for the PlayStation Vita, it arrives back into your life on consoles and steam. I’ll be checking out the PS5 version for this review and to see how well it runs compared to its handheld counter-part. If you’re looking to try it for the first time, then you can grab it for £32.99. A contribution pack is also available, which will give a few in-game items. Sometimes being alive is crime in its own right. I played FREEDOM WARS on the Vita when it was given away for PS+ a while back. I remember enjoying it and finding the concept interesting. I didn’t get far through it however, as I don’t play portable systems that much. But when I saw that FREEDOM WARS Remastered was releasing, I thought,...

Sniper Elite: Resistance – PS5 Review

From the first cutscene that shows a failed bombing run, Sniper Elite: Resistance proves it doesn't miss the target but hits it. I'm a big fan of the long-range Rebellion-developed World War II combat shooter and always look forward to a new entry where I can pop Nazi skulls like a jelly-filled balloon. The game arrives on the 30th of January 2025 for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series, and PC with two editions: the regular and deluxe. The deluxe edition includes the season pass, though its content is still unconfirmed. UNABLE TO RESIST(ance) Gameplay Sniper Elite’s bread and butter is of course its 'X-Ray' kill cam, which lets you watch your bullets pass through enemy bodies in gory anatomical detail. It is just as visceral in Sniper Elite: Resistance, with blood spurting like an overactive fount...

Dynasty Warriors: Origins – PS5 Review

I don’t know about you guys but I found Dynasty Warriors 9 terrible with the open-world side of things. But KOEI TECMO seems to have changed their approach with the newest entry to the franchise Dynasty Warriors: Origins. I played the initial demo released prior to launch, and I really enjoyed the gameplay, so here’s hoping the full release is the same! The game has two versions available on PS5. One is the base game (costing £64.99) and the other is the digital deluxe. The deluxe nets you the soundtrack, 72-hour early access, letters, and the official art book. However, it will also set you back £79.99. Warning! Gifs used in this article might contain flashing imagery. Someone has to play mediator to the three kingdoms. I’ve played the Dynasty Warrior franchise since the good old o...
