All reviewsAPB Reloaded2010
3 out of 5 starsThe City of San Paro is not host to a traditional MMO, though you could be forgiven for the confusion. Realtime Worlds has created a game with more similarities to the Free Roam of Grand Theft Auto than World Of Warcraft , and this differentiation is to the games credit. The gameplay is fast, brutal and lacks the intimidating grinds and level caps that would normally be associated with any game asking for a monthly…
Sleep Is Death2010
3 out of 5 starsSleep Is Death sounds morose as fuck. It's an Indie adventure game which is designed to be played with 2 people. Think dungeons and dragons except you make everything up in realtime. The premise is that each player is given 30 seconds to react to the actions of the previous player. Because there is no AI and no NPC's every action, object and line of dialogue is completely contextualized by those of the previous…
The Passing: A title ripe for parody.
4 out of 5 starsI appreciate I should have incorporated a hilarious pun into the title. Something about " not passing up on the passing!! ". A brilliant opportunity missed, I fear... Oh well. The Passing is a three chapter DLC campaign for Left 4 Dead 2. And it's one last chance for you to fapp over Zoey . The campaign is set amidst a tropical storm and looks fantastic with all the bright neon signs cluttered around, but don't…
Age of Booty2008
4 out of 5 starsI don't usually write reviews or impressions or anything like that, but I feel this game deserves my over-valued attention. So here we go; Having played Age Of Booty for many hours, I am continually impressed with this neat little team based action strategy game. After booting up the game I hopped straight into a 4vs4 multiplayer match (there was 1vs1 and 2vs2 options also available). Finding a group was painless.…

All articlesI watched the Uncharted Movie and I Did Not Enjoy It Much
May 10, 2022
~ Mild spoilers ~ To be clear, my expectations were low. The cast has been thoroughly ridiculed since it was first announced, and the trailer didn't inspire much hope; Nathan Drake, who is supposed to be 31 in the first Uncharted game and 40 years old by the last, is played by Tom Holland, a boy who will look 16 years old for the rest of his life. At one point in the film there's a "15 years ea...
Let's Get Healthy 2021: Feb Update
Feb 17, 2021
As some of you may know, I'm trying to start a fresh save on my lifestyle by investing in some real workout classes and nutrition . You can read about the start of that adventure here, but I wanted to check in (with myself I guess) just so I have a log of how things are going a couple of months later. Well, I guess right off the bat the good news is that I've lost a bunch of weight. I've never...
Twenty big dog run, no bones about it: Let's get healthy!
Jan 11, 2021
I've always thought New Year's resolutions are pretty silly, but this year especially there's a much greater sense of urgency for change - a combination of the enthusiasm we collectively feel to distance ourselves from the last 12 months, with a desperate optimism that comes from knowing things need to get better. I currently live in Melbourne which, as of writing this blog, was home to the lon...
Should games reviews acknowledge poor studio conditions?
Jun 14, 2020
As I'm sure many of you are aware Kotaku/Jason Schreier ran a pretty revealing and insightful piece into the shitty studio conditions over at Naughty Dog . For those of you that aren't up to speed, here's the highlights; - Naughty Dog encouraged rolling crunch for months at a time causing widespread burnout and depression among their developers “It’s an amazing creative environment,” said one d...
Star Wars Jedi: Falling Over
Jun 4, 2020
For a game that places so much emphasis on freedom of movement, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order (I feel like that colon is in the wrong place but it's not and that's upsetting) has some pretty terrible platforming. Many times I found myself repeatedly plummeting to my death as a result of clipping through geometry, Cal stubbornly refusing to grab on to pipes and ledges that were clearly, often off...
