Platform(s): PS5 Genre: Third-Person Shooter, Platformer, Action-Adventure Gamers usually have video game franchises that they grew up with fond memories of, which were also instrumental and influential in making them the gamers that they are today. For some, it might be Mario, Sonic or something else. For me, however, it was Insomniac Games...
Platform(s): PC (Version played), Nintendo Switch, PS4, Xbox One Genre: 2D Shooter Tribute To Metal Slug, But With A Goose Sometimes, simplicity is the best policy. If you tell me that someone is making a 2D run-and-gun game in the veins of the classic Metal Slug series, but starring a cybernetic bounty hunter Goose fighting aliens instead of N...
Platform: PC Genre: Isometric action-adventure bug mecha-piloting chillax odyssey We know that mechas and mechs are huge lumbering walking death-dealing machines. However, the indie action-adventure game Stonefly (made by the same folks behind Creature In The Well) might change that perception. In this world where humans are Lilliputian in scal...
Platform: PC Genre: 2D Action Game At first glance, the Malaysian-made indie 2D platformer The Company Man starts off jovial and satirical. You play a corporate worker named Jim as he rises to the top, fighting co-workers in a big corporation in different sectors using his keyboard weapon like a sword and emails as projectiles. The first few...
Platform(s): PC Genre: Indie game, RPG, Survival game, Adventure, Simulation, Strategy One of my favourite game franchises is Creative Assembly's Total War series, and a huge part of that is playing siege battles in warfare. They are always exciting and fun, but they don't really bother to depict what it's like being a non-combatant during thes...
Platform(s): Xbox One (version played), PC, PS4 Genre: Sci-fi action RPG with furries I'll be frank: THQ Nordic and developer Experiment 101's big action role-playing game Biomutant took a few hours to click for me. Initially, you start off as an ass-kicking animal wanderer (whom you can customize from fur colour to class type) and are spoon...
Platform(s): Xbox Series, Xbox One, PS5, PS4, PC Genre: Extra 20 hours of last year's Ubisoft open-world game As if the original Assassin's Creed: Valhalla isn't massive enough, along comes the game's first DLC to make it a few more levels of "giant-sized". The Wrath of the Druids DLC adds more of what fans love about last year's AC game, but a...
If you aren't fatigued by the deluge of comic book movies and TV shows in 2021, Jupiter's Legacy will break your figurative back in that regard. This TV series Netflix adaptation of a Mark Millar and Frank Quitely comic book series in 2013 is about a group of old superheroes who want to pass the superheroics torch to their children. However, the...
Platform(s): PC, PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5, Xbox Series X Genre: Vertical Roguelike, Platformer Action Game, Indie, Bullet Hell This year alone, I've reviewed several roguelike and roguelite games, including Gods Will Fall, Nigate Tale, and Returnal. It seems like everyone's trying their hand at the genre these days, as it gets less a...
Army Of The Dead director Zack Snyder is probably best known for his comic book movie adaptations like 300, Watchmen, Man Of Steel and Justice League. Way before all of that, many might not remember that his very first movie (and directorial debut) was 2004's Dawn Of The Dead remake. After almost two decades, Snyder has returned to the genre tha...
Platform(s): Xbox Series (version played), Xbox One, PS5 (version played), PS4, PC Genre: Survival horror with loads of action beats The fourth mothership Resident Evil game back in 2002 really did spoil the survival horror market. Many games did try to emulate its success. Heck, even Capcom tried to one-up its impact with Resident Evil 5 and R...
Mythic Quest is one of the best and most refreshing sitcoms of recent times. Produced by the creators of It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia and Ubisoft Film & Television, the first season of the Apple TV+ series showed that it wasn't afraid to be both funny and over-the-top while also being hard-hitting and packing an emotional gut-pun...
Platform: PC Genre: Typing RPG If you miss games like Typing of the Dead and need a PC title that's a tad longer in the tooth, you may want to check out Nanotale: Typing Chronicles. Instead of a guy with a gun escaping a haunted house, you play a female wizard named Rosalind who wants to explore the world and uses spells to defend herself. N...
Platforms: PS5 Genre: Third-Person Roguelike Action Bullet Hell Game Returnal is the PS5’s first true exclusive in a while and it has a lot to prove. Developer Housemarque is best known for 2013’s Resogun and 2016’s Alienation), but this is their first attempt at making a AAA game. After finally playing it, I can say ...
Platform: PC Genre: Outspoken adventure game for your extended lunch break If you were to rate the indie title Say No! More just on its length alone, it gets a failing grade. The adventure game will take you at least two hours or so to beat in one playthrough. Despite its length, Say No! More wears its "one word, many languages" linguistic arca...
Platforms: PS4, PC, Xbox One Genre: Action RPG with crazy twists and turns Back in 2010, I had the pleasure of experiencing the action RPG that is Nier. For all of its rusty gameplay & subpar graphics, it boasts one of the best plots that require you to pay attention and play through to get the most out of it. Even then, it would be remiss ...
I have to blame Your Name for setting the bar for romance plots and anime works way too high. It makes judging judging other films in the same animated genre a lot tougher and saddling them with more expectations. That's fine and all, because every animator and story writer needs to aim for the top to stand out. But what about a film that's as g...
Review originally published on 8th April. We're bumping this up to this week since this film will premiere outside of SEA and on HBO Max this week. The Mortal Kombat fighting game franchise has been shocking the world with its blood and gore since 1992, but no live-action adaptation has managed to capture their full visceral violence so far. The...
Platform: PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, PS4, PS5 Genre: Expansion to 2019's best looter shooter game 5 expansions later, Borderlands 3 went from a great game to an even more packed one. So what else is there for a sixth DLC pack? How about something for or loot-and-shoot fans and Borderlands lore hounds alike? For the former; more guns & end...
Platform: PC Genre: Isometric roguelike dungeon crawler with magicians You have to hand it to last year's GOTY material Hades, a monumental feat of indie achievement that not only entertains and delight, but also will inspire many, MANY indie devs to create their own breakout isometric action game with roguelike mechanics. This isn't an issu...
