Watch Dogs

4/6/2014   It's always refreshing when a developer and a publisher take a chance on a new intellectual property, and even more refreshing when the public get excited for it. 'Watch Dogs' from Ubisoft Montreal and Ubisoft was announced at E3 2012, and had been steadily gaining interest since...

Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle

15/5/2014   Normally with a game review you can have a rough idea in your head of what to expect. Despite being slightly familiar with the 1993 anime Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, I was still taken aback by how wonderfully insane 'Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle' on the PlayStation 3 is....

15/5/2014   It's not often you see RPGs hit digital stores such as the Xbox LIVE Arcade and Playstation Network Store, and aside from Torchlight, I don't recall the last time I was impressed by one. 'Child of Light' from Ubisoft (developed by four Ubisoft studios) is a game that wears its...

12/05/2012 Doctor Rocket Developer: Rippleware Platform: Android The best thing about Angry Birds is that it inspires people to make games that normally wouldn't even think to make. The lack of logic that goes into birds being shot via sling shot doesn't even comprehend why Doctor Rocket...
