Star Wars Squadrons – Pew Pew Pew

Within gaming, Star Wars titles seem to be extremely popular with some but not others. It is highly possible they could be Trekkies but there really is a mixed bag. As a big Star Wars fan myself, I can't help myself. It was exactly the same with Battlefront, I had to get my hands on a copy. Star Wars Squadrons is the latest title to be released by EA, and unlike Battlefront this time you are solely in crafts/ships (whatever you like to call them) in a fast-paced aerial battle. Star Wars Squadrons Is This The Game You Are Looking For? Having been excited for this release for a while it is finally here. Let's find out how I got on and don't forget you can always catch up with us on social media. If you have already had some hands-on time with Star Wars Squadrons do let us know your thought...

Serious Sam 4 – The Perfect Stress Buster?

I'd like to welcome our newest writer to the team, Aaron, who has taken Serious Sam 4 out for a leisurely stroll and possibly carved up an alien or two in the process! Serious Sam 4 by devs Croteam, brought so much nostalgia back for me! I loved playing these games as a kid and I’m glad I got the opportunity to play the newest Serious Sam. In this all-out fun run and gun game, I can guarantee you’ll have a lot of crazy fun and a few moments of frustration. As expected, Sam is still his badass quirky self you grew to love in the previous games. Fast and fun what else could you ask for! Gameplay As soon as you get into the game you are faced with a lot, and I mean a lot, of big aliens/monsters of all sizes. Armed with a massive minigun in your hand you have just one thing to do…..s...

Marvel’s Avengers – A Compelling Assembly

As somewhat of an MCU novice, I was excited to have the opportunity to review Marvel's Avengers, the superhero-packed action role-playing brawler developed by Crystal Dynamics and published by Square Enix. I say novice, but what I really mean is a total newcomer. Having only recently started to work my way through the Marvel movies (I've just finished Captain America: The Winter Soldier), I can confidently say I approached this game with an almost entirely blank slate and zero expectations. Whether or not that's a good thing depends on your position as a Marvel stan I guess, but if this game has shown me anything, it's that you don't have to exist in the world of the superhero to actually become one. Prior knowledge of this universe is helpful to some, but certainly not a prerequisite w...

Necromunda: Underhive Wars – Necromundane

There have been many games released set in the Warhammer 40k universe. There have been some particularly outstanding titles, but not all of them were winners. From RTS to shooters, and just about everything in between, Warhammer 40K has a huge library of games. Most recently released was Necromunda: Underhive Wars. Developed by Rogue Factor, and published by Focus Home Interactive for Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. For this review, I'll be taking a look at the Playstation 4 version of the game. So let's roll up our sleeves and take a look. Deep below the nightmarish, polluted hive cities of Necromunda, in the twisted, vertiginous, dark tunnels of the Underhive, rival gangs fight to the bitter end for personal power, wealth, survival and the honour of their Houses. Only the stron...

Swords ‘N Magic and Stuff – Skyrim Meets Minecraft

Developed and published by Kindred Games comes Swords 'N Magic and Stuff.

Mortal Shell – Or Mortal Hell???

Mortal Shell is a single-player action RPG made by new developers Cold Symmetry and published by Playstack. In their own words, it will "test your sanity and resilience in a shattered world". Combat is strategic, deliberate, and unforgiving". Mortal Shell is another game in the long line of "souls-like" games. The difference between this and previous games who try to deliver on the formula is, Mortal Shell IS a "souls-like" game, just smaller. There are enough nuances and unique features to separate it from its demonic brethren. It's like Dark Souls has a little brother, a brutal little brother, and his name is Mortal Shell. Gameplay Set in the world of Fallgrim, it is already apparent how different it is to other games who take on the Souls doctrine. Where others chose to hav...
