How Scary Is… The Evil Within?

Evil Oh yes indeed. This is the big one. Buckle up, guys and gals.Prior to release, The Evil Within was hyped ‘til it could be hyped no more. This much ballyhooed return to survival horror’s roots was being helmed by Shinji Mikami, after all. In the world of dark hallways, befuddling puzzles and angry maniacs…

The VGamerZ Monster Files: The Vampire (Dungeon Keeper)

Vampire Why yes, vampires and zombies and all of those ghastly dead things are ten a penny in video games. Are they special enough to warrant inclusion in the VGamerZ Monster Files? Usually not.We’ve previously taken a look at Plants Vs Zombies’ take on the undead, which at least lent a toontastic cutesy spin to…

Is ‘Super Smash Bros’ the Biggest 3DS Game Yet?

Super Smash The 3DS, as we know, had a fairly humble beginning. Words like ‘disastrous’ and ‘reputation-mangling’ could be used, and there were many nervous Asian businessmen in Kyoto for a while there. What with the price, and rumours that the 3D super smash effect was made by the devil himself and will melt your…

The Six Biggest Missed Opportunities In Destiny

Destiny Destiny is a unique and innovative mammoth of a game, but it has unfortunately released with too many questionable design choices. The game has been severely held back from its full potential by Bungie. While not not surprising, I can't help but feel a lot of disappointment. The game tends to shine in several…

‘Soul Sacrifice Delta’ and the Lure of the Platinum Trophy

Sacrifice For many of us, the lure of the trophy/achievement is a powerful one. It grabs us by the man-plums and squeezes relentlessly. In some extreme cases, the trophy hunter is born; a dangerous breed of player enslaved to their gamerscore or... y’know, PlayStation’s little percentage counter thing.As for me, I’m a little more selective.…

You wouldn’t hit on his huge scaly girlfriend, that’s for darn sure.The Rathalos is a species from Capcom’s much ballyhooed Monster Hunter series. For the uninitiated, these titles are arena combat/action RPG affairs, pitting…

The Beauty Of: Dark Souls II

Dark Souls Dark Souls II had an unfortunate pre-release tease that displayed graphics unlike anything we'd get in the final product. When the fans got their hands on the game, it left many feeling disappointed and lied to.
