PC Building Simulator PS4 Review – PC’s for Dummies?

PC Building Simulator is the latest release from Claudiu Kiss & The Irregular Corporation and is the newest of the ‘Sim’ style games to make its way to the PS4 after Car Mechanic Simulator came out in June. At first glance, I was a little confused why a PC Building Sim would come to PS4, as it just feels like something PC gamers would be the market aim for such a title. I briefly had a try of the PC release that came out last year and had a bit of fun so I’m hoping the PS4 version doesn’t reduce the spec on me (or if so, then not by too much). Gameplay As the title suggests, the main aim here is to build and repair PCs. You have taken over a PC repair shop from your Uncle who has moved on to bigger and better things (or at least ‘things’ somewhere else). Customers will email th...

Pro Cycling Manager 2019 PC Review – Tour de France or Tour De Farce

Pro Cycling Manager 2019 Season is Developed by Cyanide Studio and published by Bigben Interactive and is you've guessed correctly, its a cycling management game which was released on PC on the 27th June. Gameplay When starting a new career game, you have the choice of managing a whole team or just a rider which you can create. Picking a team to manage allows you to choose from a selection of teams of varying skill/difficulty. Choosing to manage a rider allows you to create a rider, albeit, with a limited amount of customisation, you can adjust their level of skill and specialisation as well as their overall potential over their career. After setting up either, you’re faced with a lot of menus. For a new player, I would say this would be potentially overwhelming. There is pretty...

Steel Division 2 Beta PC Preview – Grand Strategic Gold

Over the past few weeks, I've had the opportunity to play some of Eugen Systems new World War II Real-time strategy game Steel Division 2. Having played the first Steel Division, I was thoroughly excited to give the sequel a proper try. This time around, the RTS action takes place on the eastern front, instead of Normandie. Steel Division 2 will be the first game from Eugen Systems to be independently published. I was a bit worried Steel Division wouldn't get a sequel due to almost half of the development team going on strike over unpaid wages in early 2018. Steel Division 2 was initially slated to be released on Steam on April 4th but was delayed to May 2nd. It has now been delayed again until June 20th so that the dev team could take player feedback and make changes to the game where ...
