AVICII Invector Review – Rhythmic EDM Awesomeness

AVICII Invector is a rhythmic action music-based game created by Swedish devs Hello There Games and published by Wired Productions. It is released for Playstation, Xbox and PC on 10th December 2019 and on Nintendo Switch in early 2020. The late artist AVICII (Tim Bergling), was a legend to me when it came to electronic dance music as he brought a very distinct uplifting melody and beat to each song that he created or remixed. His sudden death back in 2018 was gutting not only to his friends and family, but also to his fans around the world. For developer Hello There Games, they were in the middle of creating Avicii Invector with him, with development starting back in 2015. What began as a collaboration has in fact now become a legacy to AVICII. So what was this game they were creat...

Arizona Sunshine The Damed DLC PSVR Review – I’ll Be Damned!!!

New from Vertigo Games and Jaywalkers Interactive comes some further DLC for their Zombie shootem up /survival game Arizona Sunshine. The Damned is the second DLC released for the game and acts as a prequel to both the game itself and the previously released DLC Dead Man. So is this extra slice of Zombie slaying DLC worth a look? Read on to find out..... Gameplay First of all Vertigo Games must be congratulated on a puntactic game title as The Damned takes place, yes you've guessed it, on, in and around a huge hydro-electric dam in the Arizona desert. The game opens with you in the familiar airstream trailer from the main game and The Damned is started by inserting the appropriate named videotape into the VCR. This can be a mission in itself as you need to get to grips with how the c...

SuperEpic Nintendo Review – Supergood

SuperEpic, developed by Undercoders and published by Numskull games, is an action platformer with strong Metroidvania elements... wait, come back! Yes, Metroidvania games are ten a penny at this point, but SuperEpic innovates with its intriguing "cross-media" features, taking the experience beyond the console. Gameplay SuperEpic is set in an alternate reality in which a greedy company called RegnantCorp, which is literally run by pigs, have brain-washed the world's population into constantly playing terrible, loot-box and microtransaction-ridden games. You play as TanTan, a household object-wielding raccoon who rides atop a llama called Ola. I was initially put off by story of SuperEpic, which I found a bit too memey and ham-fisted (pardon the pun). These reservations melted away...

Terminator: Resistance Review – Come With Me If You Want To Live

Terminator: Resistance is an upcoming first-person shooter game developed by Teyon & published by Reef Entertainment, and is being released on November 15th on PC, PS4 & Xbox One. The story is set in a post-apocalyptic 2028 Los Angeles and is the prequel to The Terminator (1984) and Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991) films. The new Terminator: Dark Fate film that has just been released in cinemas does not have any connection with the Terminator: Resistance game, as the game is ignoring all Terminator franchise films after the original first 2 films, just like how Dark Fate is doing. “The machines are destined to lose, but at what cost?” - let's DUNDUN DUN DUNDUN jump on in. Gameplay The premise of Terminator: Resistance is you take the role of Jacob Rivers, a soldier in ...

Domiverse Nintendo Review – A Super, Space-based Slap-fest

Domiverse is the debut title from the wonderfully named Haunted Tie. It is published by the slightly less wonderfully named Plug In Digital and was released on Nintendo Switch on 17 October 2019 for £12.99. Domiverse is a multiplayer one-hit arena fighter which attempts to re-create the balance of chaos and fun achieved by games such as Super Smash Bros, and it's Steam version has already amassed an army of fans. Is the Switch version worthy of universal praise or should it be chucked into a black hole? Gameplay Domiverse features a starting roster of 8 fighters, each of which is completely different in terms of appearance and skills. The drone-like W8T has the ability to hover around the arena, firing a 360-degree laser and leaving mines in its wake. The cat-serpent hybrid Snakit...

Sniper Elite III Ultimate Edition Review – Hit Me With Your Best Shot

Sniper Elite III Ultimate Edition initially released on multiple formats back in 2014. It was perhaps inevitable that a Switch port would one day arrive, but I'm pleased to say that this is a quality conversion, and brings across extra content and improvements which developers/publishers Rebellion Developments have introduced over the years since it first came out. Sniper Elite III Ultimate Edition is set in 1942 in Nazi-bothered North Africa, which makes for a refreshing change from the usual dingy grey bunkers on dingy grey streets which litter games set during World War 2. You play as Karl Fairburne, a gruff-voiced man with a rifle which enters the room 10 seconds before he does. Your goal is to track and take down the fictional General Franz Vahlen, who is doing naughty things with ...

Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Breakpoint Review – Losing It’s Identity

In 2017, Ubisoft dragged the dying franchise of Ghost Recon out of the morgue and like Doctor Frankenstein himself, injected life into the franchise with Ghost Recon: Wildlands. Now they return with another entry in the series, but will this be the Boris Karloff monster we’ve been waiting for? or a limp and laughable Ed Wood style entry to the series? Upon starting the game, you are greeted with the character creation screen. I knew what I needed to do...create the baddest looking dude on the planet. I tinkered with his hair, added scars and obviously gave him an epic beard. He was ready. Generic action man was here to take down generic villain in a generic story with gravelly voices and explosions. My inner Arnie was excited. I tied my bandana, applied my camouflage and pressed star...

Conan Unconquered Review – Conquered

Founded in 2003 with veteran developers from Westwood Studios; Petroglyph brings us a real-time strategy game which is extremely reminiscent of the major RTS titles we all know and love from the ’90s. Conan Unconquered was published by Funcom and developed by Petroglyph, it was released at the end of May 2019 and is available via Steam on the PC. Due to the previous RTS games that some of the team at Petroglyph were majorly involved in (such as Command and Conquer/Age of Empires), it's safe to say I had fairly high expectations of the title. Gameplay As previously mentioned Conan Unconquered is a Real-Time-Strategy game, with 3 gameplay modes available it allows you to play the game how it suits you best. For single player, you have the ability to play scenario mode which is the m...
