It’s difficult to know just how well PSVR is doing because while there is a very steady stream of indie titles for Sony’s VR headset coming out every week, the big ‘triple A’ titles are few and far between. Owning a PSVR is a bit like being a Switch owner, […]

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 […]

Warhammer Chaosbane – PS4 Review

I remember describing Layers of Fear as a spring-loaded ghost house. It was an interesting horror effort but the story seemed to play it’s hand too early and some puzzles impeded the game’s flow. Polish developers, Bloober Team are back with a sequel and, second time around, things come together […]

Warlock’s Tower – PS4 Review

In some ways, Bethesda’s original 2011 shoot ’em up was everything you’d expect from a crossover project between them and Id Software, the original FPS masters who pretty much defined the genre with Wolfenstein and Doom before their Quake games set the template for pretty much every online shooter ever […]

Rage 2 – PS4 Review

Back in 1995 bucks the trend of indie games by not using 8 or 16 bit 2D graphics to tickle your nostalgia bone but 32 bit 3D graphics. The birth of home 3D graphics ushered in some truly timeless classics and gave us survival horror. It is specifically this genre […]

From developer No Code comes Observation, a science fiction thriller. It has an interesting concept in that you play as an AI watching the plot unfold through cameras rather than being the focus yourself. The artificial intelligence you embody is called Sam, short for SAMOS. You are the AI on […]
