Generation Zero is the latest offering from the developers at Avalanche Studios. It is a first-person co-op shooter developed for PC, PS4 and Xbox One. Generation Zero released on the 26th of March, 2019. Avalanche Studios has had a pretty solid track record in terms of making fun open world games. Mad Max and the Just Cause series are among the titles Avalanche Studios is known for making. Let's get on our rad clothes, break out the boombox and check out the bogus events following a weekend campout with friends. Gameplay I have been looking forward to getting my hands on Generation Zero since I first heard about it. I mean come on, Robots? The 80's? Scavenging for weapons to survive?

Pode PS4 Review – Teamwork Has Never Felt So Rewarding

Pode, by independent developer Henchman & Goon, is an amazing co-operative platform puzzle game that has been inspired by Norwegian culture.  Available on PlayStation and Nintendo Switch this exploration game is quite simply amazing and a breath of fresh air to me. Gameplay Pode features two main characters; a little rock called Bulder and a fallen star called Glo, together they must work together as they wander through the mysterious and magical Mount Fjellheim in a mission to help Glo get back into the sky.  Incidentally, Pode is Norwegian for "Graft"! Playing as either two-player co-op or in single player you must utilise each of the character's special abilities in order to activate and reach the exit on each level.  In the early stages, the basics of movement and jumping ...

Lego DC Super-Villains: Sometimes it’s good to be bad!

It is that time of year again when most gamer's attentions are on which of the mega Triple A titles they are going to spend their hard earned cash on. This year has seen some absolutely epic games released in what is always an exciting time for gamers. It is therefore very easy for games to slip under the radar and with yet another entry in the long running Lego series released you could be forgiven for thinking that it's not worth looking at. However, although many of the usual elements are present Lego DC Super-villains could be just the ticket if you fancy a break from endless horse riding or hunting down murderous Greek cultists. Gameplay To be fair to both Warner Brothers Interactive Entertainment and Traveller's Tales the Lego video games have been massively successful and popu...

Catastronauts Review – Space Madness!

Taking on space with the Catastronauts by Intertia Game Studios is great fun, a couch co-op experience that seems familiar but give you a great variation on the formula. Come with us as we embark on a space adventure unlike any you have experienced. Gameplay In traditional couch co op style, Catastronauts lets you and three friends take control of your own ship. After picking your character you are greeted with a basic tutorial which effectively is a screen that shows you the buttons. Simplistic is the best way to describe the controls. Pick up, Activate and run faster is pretty much all that you will be using. Once Catastronauts has taken you through the controls its straight into battle against an enemy ship.  So each round has a different challenge, you have to fire your weapon...

Human Fall Flat PS4 Review – A Stand Up Puzzler.

In these days of epic open-world games, narrative driven sagas with character depth and player investment, it makes a nice change to take a step back and play something completely stupid and fun. Human Fall Flat is that game. No need to worry about a plot-line or a skill tree, the biggest decision you have to make here is what colour hat to put on. So sit back, grab a cuppa, get ready to switch off and solve some puzzles as you steer boneless human Bob around his recurring dreams about falling. Made by No Brakes Games and published by Curve digital on consoles, Human Fall Flat is available on Mac, Linux, Windows, Switch, Xbox One and PS4, which is the format I played it on. Gameplay Bob has dreams about falling recurring dreams he can’t escape, but to move on through the game you hav...

The Incredibles Lego Game Review – Does The Formula Still Work?

Adding to the Lego gaming franchise that is brought to us by Warner Bros Interactive Entertainment and Traveller's Tales comes Disney Pixar The Incredibles.  Launched just in time with the release into cinema of the second instalment of The Incredibles movies, is the Lego gaming franchise still its humorous fun self or has it grown old and tired? Gameplay As ever, The Incredibles game follows the very much tried and tested Lego gaming formula comprising of witty dialogues, short dynamic cut scenes and essentially teamwork between characters to solve puzzles and complete the levels.  Here we get to play as The Incredible family, starting off with Mr Incredible and Elastogirl as we are thrown straight into the action onboard a huge tunnelling machine.  Now it is at this point I must ...

Sea of Thieves Review – The Seas Have Calmed

It has been a whilesince Rare’s swashbuckling title, Sea of Thieves launched. A highly anticipated title with many players, including myself being desperate to jump into the salty seas. However, to point out again, it has been a while since Sea of Thieves launched, and I feel it’s a good time to see how the game plays now that the tide of excitement has lowered. I saw Sea of Thieves grow from way back in the early months of 2017. Playtests had just got started in fact. I think I was the second wave of players to get accepted, but I didn’t get to play much. I knew from my short time with it though, that it was something nice and that the community was excited amongst one another in the private forums. February 2018 saw more playtests taking place as the game grew closer to launch,...
