I’ve always been fascinated by the concept of robots and A.I., just the idea and imagery of a robot or android with it’s own intelligence adapting and learning enhancements, is an incredible concept.

Aqua Lungers is a cute little 2D action game, published and developed by WarpCore Studios, and while it was originally released on PC, the game has made its way to Nintendo Switch. Aqua Lungers can be played alone, with the player racing to collect gold from the monsters of the

“Borderlands: Legendary Collection” is the first three games of the muchly loved, first-person, looter shooter franchise developed by Gearbox Software and published by 2K Games, in one quaint little bundle. Like most fans, I was luck enough to have played the original title quite a bit on the Xbox 360,
All the way back in October 2019, I was given the opportunity to review ‘The Outer Worlds’, by Obsidian Entertainment. I was genuinely shocked at how much I adored the game, with its beautiful art style and immersive game play, it was basically the Fallout franchise in space, and we
Some games or series are iconic, it does not matter what genre you like, you know that these games are supposed to be played, that they have something no other game has or had at the time. That is 2K’s Bioshock series. A few years ago, I was given the
The recently released ‘Predator Hunting Grounds’ by Illfonic, has had its first DLC drop, known as ‘Dutch’. This DLC sees the return of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Character, Major Alan ‘Dutch’ Schaefer, from the first Predator movie. Now, I did not know this at first, but it is not just a skin
Growing up, every person surely had this experience: Either your relative, neighbour, friend or that kid you were forced to sit and play with at play time had this basic, run of the mill, army kit. The kit was flooded with green army men, all of which were holding various

You will encounter everything; from ominous plague doctors, burly boxers to even a innocent-looking damsel that carries around a mysterious suitcase
Growing up, I always wanted to be a pilot. I’d spend countless hours playing flying simulators or building model aircraft. My biggest price and joy was a balsa wood glider I built with my father, cutting each piece to size, gluing it all together and wrapping it in tissue paper
I was very late to the Minecraft craze, I was pessimistic that something that looked like a kid’s game could have any sort of depth or complexity that I for one crave as a gamer. Boy, was I wrong. I eventually jumped onto that bandwagon and wow was I obsessed.

Saints Row: The Third published by THQ, is a 2011 action-adventure game developed by Volition and is now remastered for 2020. I have fond memories of the Saints Row franchise and for a while it even replaced GTA as I was drawn more towards the crazy, outlandish story and characters.
GORN is a gladiatorial simulator designed for VR developed by Free Lives and published by Devolver Digital. Initially released on steam for early access in 2017 and then leaving early access in 2019, this game can be played with the Oculus Rift or HTC Vive and has now has finally
Given its remarkable similarities with the Grand Theft Auto franchise, it’s a wonder why I hadn’t tried the Mafia series all those years ago when it was released. As we approach the 10th anniversary of Mafia II, games developer Hangar 13 have been working on something in secret, something many
As a kid growing up, I used to love diving in the sea or a swimming pool and having that weightlessness slowed down sensation that you feel whilst being underwater. How time seemingly slows down, all your actions are intensified and any underwater play fights are genuinely like you’re forever
Oddworld: Munch’s Oddysee redeveloped and republished by Oddworld Inhabitants, is a 2001 classic that has been recreated for the Nintendo Switch. Many older games over the last few years have been popping up, games of the past, causing gamers those epic feelings of nostalgia. Some games have been completely revamped
To start this off, Touhou Mechanical Scrollery, or I like to say TMS, is the latest in Bullet hell mid-air hunting shoot-em-ups, and for those familiar with Tougou games, this is no exception. With its action RPG, an interesting storyline and graphically stunning gameplay, TMS really has the spirit of
Being a bit of an older gamer, I was around when first person shooters started making their way onto computers. The likes of Duke Nukem 3D, the very first DOOM title, Wolfenstein 3D, and my personal favourite, Redneck Rampage. These were the games that every aspiring gamer had in their

Streets of Rage (known as Bare Knuckle in Japan) was one of the most recognised ‘Beat ‘Em Up’ games in the arcade scene, back in the 90‘s. Its simple but effective gameplay and iconic soundtrack helped it stand out from the rest and had a big influence in people buying
‘Obey me’ developed by Error 404 Game Studios and published by Blowfish Studios is a game I was super stoked to see when it appeared in my inbox. It’s no secret that I’m a massive fan of just about anything Blowfish Studios is attached to, so with that being said
This mysterious and magical focused game sets up a challenging and meaningful encounter everywhere you go. The plot is narrated to you and the narrator also serves as your guide through a journey of discovery and intrigue within the vast castle set before you. From what I’ve experienced thus far
To break the proverbial third wall here, I’m a huge fan of storytelling. If the action in movies or games is poor, but you have a good story, I’m hooked! Thankfully, the team at Afterburner Studio are in agreement with my fandom (plus the gameplay action is just as awesome!)

Zombie Army Trilogy has been out for some time now, since 2015 in fact, but like many games already in the marketplace, it has made its way to the Nintendo Switch.
With a few notable exceptions, remakes and remasters of games are rarely a good thing. Sure, we get to benefit from some incredible updates to graphics, but it is unlikely to have any game changing results, often just recycling the game play and ultimately feeling like the game wasn’t as
Most zombie based multiplayer games will have teams of players facing up against countless zombies, blasting away without worry for ammunition and simply trying to get from one safe room to another. One of my personal favourites was Left 4 Dead, pitting four players against a seemingly limitless supply of
