Broforce Review – A Bromance with Disaster
Broforce is just about the sloppiest kiss you could get of 1980s nostalgia today. Surely, the over the top presentation wears thin rather quickly, but in the window of time it’s in effect, you’re bound to have a good time in this game with friends or randoms, via drop-in drop-out multiplayer, or by playing solo. As…
Galak-Z Review: Strapped in for the long haul
There’s a sense of profound satisfaction when you make it through one of Galak-Z‘s mission. It’s not only because they are difficult and thrilling to play, but also because everything is on the line all the time. One death means complete and utter failure in Galak-Z, and unlike any game I might have happened to…
The Beginner’s Guide Review – Emotionally inventive
Franz Kafka. You’ve probably heard the name before at the very least, even if you haven’t read any of his works. Kafka is regarded today as one of the most influential writers of the 20th Century, writing a large collection of short stories alongside several novellas such as The Metamorphosis and The Trial. Kafka’s writing…
Persona 4: Dancing All Night Review – Stretch, stretch, stretch your franchiiise!
First rule of storytelling: Is this the most interesting part of your protagonist’s life? If it isn’t, why aren’t you showing us that? Persona 4 way back in 2008 was a fairly fresh RPG with an eclectic and timeless cast. Then Atlus followed up a few years later with Arena and its fantastic sequel, and…
Mad Max Review – An average day, I’d say
Of all film franchises that have had any influence of videogames, the one that I can imagine have made the deepest contribution has got to be the Mad Max series. Games like Borderlands and The Last of Us have painted gorgeously distopic experiences, each on their own unique way, based somewhat on what Mad Max…
Ghostbusters Puzzle Fighter Review – Please cross the gems
Who is the target market for Beeline Interactive’s Ghostbusters Puzzle Fighter? I’m not being facetious or rhetorical; I’m genuinely curious. Ghostbusters Puzzle Fighter is a by-the-books match-3 puzzler that aims to rope players into spending more money on unnecessary, fleeting bonuses to a mediocre game. It’s textbook free-to-play. It has you lead a team of…
Capsule Force Review – Multiplayer mayhem
Back at E3 I said Capsule Force was some of the most fun I’ve had with a local multiplayer game. For as much of that was born of out of the circumstances – the atmosphere, the people – I still stand by that statement. Developed by Klobit Games, Capsule Force pits two teams of two…
Batman: Arkham Knight Review – One bat too many
Rocksteady has finally put the conundrum they themselves created to bed. Their new Batman game, Arkham Knight, proves that there can be too many Batman games. Granted, they have been on a steady decline quality-wise ever since the original, fantastic Arkham Asylum, but the series is far from being considered anything remotely close to bad….
Submerged Review – Sink or Swim
The 2001 film A.I: Artificial Intelligence, is a fascinating, if flawed film. What the film does have in spades is memorable set pieces. In one such example, the robot boy David and his robot friend Gigolo Joe (Haley Joel Osment and Jude Law respectively) fly across a flooded Manhattan, the abandoned skyscrapers jutting out of…
