It’s all right there in the title but Session: Skate Sim is, unsurprisingly, a skateboarding simulation. However, that doesn’t mean that Montreal-based Crea-ture Studios haven’t surprised the hell out of us with this game. Like every other right-minded gamer, we grew up on the Tony Hawk games and while they taught us a lot […]

Session: Skate Sim – PS5 Review

Review of the base game can be found here. The third DLC for Graveyard Keeper has been released and it’s the most involved yet. It adds new quests, items, locations and story and is worth checking out. The first aspect you’ll probably see from the new content is that the […]

Graveyard Keeper – Game of Crone DLC – PS4 Review

Graveyard Keeper has been out on PS4 for a couple of years so why review it now? Well a new DLC has released, Game of Crone, and it just made sense to cover the game in its entirety and then tackle the DLC separately. All three DLC integrate into the […]

Tennis World Tour 2 is the sequel to Big Ben Interactive’s poorly received tennis game Tennis World Tour. We actually reviewed the PS4 version of this sequel last September, giving it 4 out of 10, a score that was in range of its Metacritic rating but Nacon have given the game […]

You probably know this by now but I’m a sucker for hardcore race sims. There’s something about the act of driving that I want to pursue. Unfortunately, life as a cowardly pedestrian has left me resigned to playing at being a boy racer virtually. More often than not, the good […]

More and more strategy games are finding a home on consoles with the slower paced, mouse based gameplay often translating well to the control pad. Two Point Hospital has now made the jump to PS4 and continues to prove that this style of game works very well outside of the […]

We’ve all fished in a game at some point but this is my first foray into a dedicated fishing simulator. Fishing Planet has been a fairly accomplished free-to-play effort that’s found a home on the Playstation Store for the past couple of years. Now the powers that be have decided […]

With Zen’s third pack of real-life Williams tables for their masterful Pinball FX3 hub, comes our third review of these things and so far we’ve had mixed feelings with these packs. Mainly this has been down to us not really having the familiarity with those real tables and also because they’ve been […]

We’re probably not required to tell you that Snooker 19 is a snooker simulation but it is and it comes to us from Leamington Spa-based indie studio Lab42 who have a mobile and porting based softography behind them but are now trying their hand and simulation of the relaxing sport […]

It’s September and that can only mean one thing. PES has had a few weeks to shine, and shine it did, but now FIFA is back, ready to suck all of the oxygen out of the genre and to try to establish its place at the top of the pile […]

After the quarter that EA have just had, what better way to let off steam than with a game where you punch people in the face? That’s right, EA’s UFC series is back. And if you think EA had a rough 2017, the Ultimate Fighting Championship had a worse one. […]

I’m going to ‘fess up right away. This game isn’t for me. I’ve never romanticised the idea of being a truck driver on the open roads and back routes of America (even less so the Eastern European mudlands of this game) and roughly sixty seconds into firing up Spintires: Mudrunner I […]
