Out of respect to the casual or artistic game developers, I have decided to a review a game that fits into both of these categories: ‘Flower.’ Because of its focus on artistic development I feel like Flower really deserves an honest review to show its value as a game. Also, with the [...]

Skyrim lag issues patched
Usually when you hear the term lag you think of online games that are completely ruined by one guys crappy connection, or some poorly hosted servers. Bethesda gave the word a new lease of life by reminding people where it originated, in single player games. Several PS3 owners reported issues with frame rates that made the game Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim almost unplayable. Games got worse depending on how [...]
REVIEW: Uncharted 3
Naughty Dog’s Uncharted series are some of the best games on the PS3, in fact I would go as far as saying Uncharted 2 was my favourite PS3 exclusive, beating off the likes of Metal Gear Solid 4 and God of War 3. The game has a sense of fun, adventure and story that is [...]

REVIEW: Batman Arkham City
Batman is becoming hot stuff right now. Since Chris Nolan showed a re-invented version of the camp crusader with Batman Begins and The Dark Knight it seems that everyone wants a piece of him. Rocksteady proved themselves with Arkham Asylum, creating an engrossing game that captured the story, atmosphere and characters from DC’s universe. With [...]
REVIEW: El Shaddai: Ascention of Megatron
When I heard that one of Okami’s leading artists was directing a heavily stylised action game my ears pricked up. Nowadays games seem to have a limited pallet, sticking to darker colours with monotone schemes that make you wonder if game designers have ever seen a dulux colour chart. El Shaddai has you play as [...]
