dark souls

Gods Will Fall is a new Rogue-like title with some interesting ideas. The titular gods have started to get greedy, asking for more and more sacrifices and man has had enough. An army sails towards the island that the gods inhabit but the majority don’t make it, the gods destroying […]

Gods Will Fall – PS4 Review

Remnant: From the Ashes does stick in my memory as a highlight of the now last generation. At times it was frustrating and it’s main gimmick of randomised events didn’t always work in its favour but the gunplay was fun and discovering the different events was rewarding. At the time […]

Chronos: Before the Ashes – PS4 Review

Arguably the highest profile release at the start of this new generation is Demon’s Souls. How it’s come to this I don’t know, a remake of game that at one point wasn’t even going to be released in the West has come to spearhead the exclusive line up at a […]

Demon’s Souls – PS5 Review

Remnant: From the Ashes has been a good time. The previous DLC, Swamps of Corsus, was not really what I was expecting. Adding more events and bosses to an area that was already in the game was a little disappointing but the addition of Survival Mode was excellent with a […]

Remnant: From the Ashes – Subject 2923 – DLC Review

I’ve played quite a few Souls clones in the past few years and I generally enjoy them. I played through Code Vein relatively recently and ended up not liking it very much, whilst The Surge 2 I find to be fantastic. Mortal Shell is an indie take on the formula. […]

Mortal Shell – PS4 Review

The Surge 2 came out just over three months ago and I enjoyed it. As with the first title Deck13 are supporting the sequel with DLC and the first has just arrived called The Kraken. Be aware that the DLC requires you to be at the latter stages of the […]

The Surge 2: The Kraken DLC – PS4 Review

While EA’s Star Wars: Battlefront titles have kept sociable gamers relatively happy this generation, we’ve all been crying out for a decent single player Star Wars game for years now. The recent re-release of Jedi Outcast reminded us of how much fun it was to run around a virtual world with a lightsaber, […]

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order – PS4 Review

November 24, 2019 in PS4 tagged dark souls / fallen order / jedi / lightsabers / star wars / third-person / uncharted by Richie

The Surge was alright. The limb severing combat was an enjoyable take on the Souls formula and the sci-fi setting made it stand out. It was not without its problems however, with too many similar environments that became a chore to navigate. Deck13 have taken the criticism on board and […]

The Surge 2 – PS4 Review

Dark Souls gets thrown around as a comparison far too much these days. Any game which has the audacity to kill you (in game, obviously) is automatically compared to From Software’s now classic series and as such it’s lost most of its meaning. Annoyingly I now have to compare Remnant: […]

From Software are back with another game in the Souls mould. Much like Bloodborne before it Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice makes some major changes to how the game plays whilst keeping the the atmosphere and exploration that makes the likes of Dark Souls 3 so popular. What are those changes […]

Brought back from the brink, the Darksiders franchise once belonged to THQ (RIP). The franchise (and THQ’s name) were bought up by Nordic Games and ex-members of Vigil Games (developers of the first two Darksiders games) formed Gunfire Games and have created Darksiders III. Whilst the first two titles were […]

A year and a half after release The Surge is getting a second DLC. The last one, A Walk in the Park, released at the end of last year and offered a location drastically different from any in the base game whilst offering new armour, weapons and story. The Good, […]
