In the last few days, one of the biggest stories in gaming has been the disastrous tale of the PC launch of Arkham Knight.  The game launched with a whole cavalcade of problems: locked-in 30 fps frame rate, textures with loading times, missing effects, a lack of anti-aliasing, and worst of all; graphical stutters and…

Splatoon I’ve owned Team Fortress 2 since 2008. It was the very first PC game I ever bought and was recommended to me by one of my best friends. It also happens to be the game that introduced me to every other mod brought to life by Valve who have continued to update the game…

Legend of Korra Back in October, Platinum Games released a game based off the animated series Legend of Korra, and it got mostly panned by critics and the fan response was tepid. The game had a lot of good ideas in it, and the mechanics within it were actually pretty fun. All of the different…

3DS Back in January of this year I decided to splurge a bit and pre-order the limited edition Majora's Mask New 3DS XL. It came in the mail about a month later just in time for me to finish off my playthrough of Majora's Mask 3D on it, and it was a good time. What…

Fallout 4 I don’t think it would be hyperbole to suggest that Bethesda killed it at E3 this year – which, for their first year as an event headliner, is pretty remarkable.

Nintendo If you ask anyone what they thought of this years E3, most will tell you that it was one of the better shows of late. Surprise announcements made about games long-thought forgotten, old favourites being lovingly remade and a general sense that over the next 18-24 months, gamers can expect to see some great…

Horror If you are a survival horror fan of games such as Resident Evil, Silent Hill, etc, and you haven't checked out Outlast, well. You are in for a terrifying ride of your life.Many games with the horror element are not all that spooky. I find they commonly rely on gruesome scenes and jump scares…

GTA Before I start this article, I want to make something clear – Rockstar is one of the best developers working today and not once did they release a bad product! No matter what genre they tackle: action, open-world or detective adventure, they always deliver polished and meticulously crafted games. And even considering all the…

Persona 5 According to the official website for Persona 5 the game is still coming out this year, which is simply untrue. 2015 is too vague and is more likely a placeholder date until Atlus gets a better idea of when the game actually comes out.Considering that we haven't really seen much of the game,…
