Warhammer: Chaosbane Slayer Edition – PS5/PS4 Review

November 23, 2020 in PS5 / Reviews tagged Chaosbane / Clone / diablo / nurgle / unclean / Warhammer by Grizz

The Torchlight series has made a reasonable name for itself by offering its own budget take on the Diablo experience, growing while its inspiration does too. We reviewed Torchlight II back in September of last year and while we appreciated its solid gameplay mechanics, it was just a bit too staid, offering nothing […]

Torchlight III – PS4 Review

Torchlight II is a port of a 2012 Diablo clone which was itself the sequel to the 2009 original. Although the series has always debuted on the PC, Torchlight did eventually make it across to the previous gen of consoles and I played through it on the Xbox 360. The sequel has now […]

Torchlight II – 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: […]

It’s not often I venture into fantasy ARPGs but there’s usually a relaxing, low-effort feel to a dungeon crawl against scores of disposable enemies. Warhammer Chaosbane comes from EKO Software who are looking to add Game Workshop’s universe to an already tried and true formula. With it’s inspiration very much […]

Hungarian dev squad Neocore aren’t exactly strangers to the ARPG (action role-playing game) and have already put out a bunch of them as part of their Van Helsing series. Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor – Martyr is their latest effort and, for a reviewer like me at least, the good news is that there […]

Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor – Martyr – PS4 Review

August 22, 2018 in PS4 tagged arpg / diablo / looting / shooting / Warhammer by Richie

There is an almost insurmountable, theoretical mountain that greets any isometric action RPG developer currently. Said mountain is named ‘Diablo’. Blizzard managed to knock the world for six when the Diablo series debuted and it has maintained a stranglehold on the genre ever since then. Many have stepped up […]

Vikings: Wolves of Midgard – PS4 Review

The Witch and the Hundred Knight: Revival Edition is an enhanced port of the PS3 game of similar name. I never played the original release so can’t directly compare the two but, being a fan of Disgaea, an action RPG from Nippon Ichi Software seems like a treat, or was […]
