PC Reviews

Condemned: Criminal Origins has a lot of great influences with the biggest three being Twin Peaks, Silence of the Lambs, and Seven. That's quite a big platter to pull from but let me just start by saying that...

Ember was such a nostalgic trip for me but can definitely be enjoyed by almost anyone, regardless of nostalgia. Ember hearkens back to games such as Baldur's Gate and Planescape Torment - and I couldn't be more thrilled. I'd...

There seems to be a void that everyone is trying to fill now days. With Left 4 Dead 3 unlikely to happen for quite some time, there is a long line of developers coming into...

Goo Saga HD Edition is an HD version of a popular mobile title developed by Toka Loka Games. This HD PC port provides puzzle-platforming gameplay across 20 levels. Can you help Goo find his creator?...

I was really impressed with the first Assassin's Creed release. From the beginning, Ubisoft showed us they had something special with the cinematic trailers that helped capture everyone's attention. I remember my parents (who never play...

Never Ending Night has some big aspirations and it does things right that are honestly usually missed by other games and that's what separates this game from the rest of them. Atmosphere and tone are...

Due to the combination of preparing for EGX and reviewing a good few September releases, I've been feeling rather stressed. I've plagued my usual online haunts with banshee-like screaming about one thing or the next....

Auralux: Constellations is casual yet complex and it's such a great thing to have in a game, especially on mobile platforms. It starts very accessible, easy-to-learn, and kind in its approach to teaching you the mechanics,...

Puzzle-Platforming has taken on many different forms over the years. Games like Braid, The Oddworld series, and even Portal have attempted to expand our minds and change the way we play. Four Sided Fantasy is...

I love the desperate last stand. It is the adrenaline rush of desperation cranked all the way up to 11. The ultimate stakes have been raised and your life is laid down on the line...

Dumb Chicken 2 has some big aspirations and it manages to be a decent game in all honesty. There are just some things that hold it back from being as great as it could be...

In a world where everyone wants to be represented fairly in movies, gaming and even novels (yeah, there’s been cases of that before) we do tend to forget that there are some who don’t have...

Plenty of games have been made with bird protagonists: Angry Birds, Banjo Kazooie, Animal Crossing and the Star Fox series just to name a few. Never before have I seen a robotic flamingo take on other avian...

When a powerful civilization collapses, a vacuum of power and influence is left behind. What does that do to the civilizations that come next? What happens when all that is left are echoes of what...

Zombies aren't scary, at least, not anymore. A few years ago, when pop culture was at its zombiest, they were on every TV, movie, book, cell phone and bumper sticker. You couldn't throw a zombie...

For me, some games are a pickle to describe why I love them so dearly. I must have written this introduction in my head twenty times, each time trying to find a way to describe...

I was interested in checking this game out the second I saw the trailer just by how much fun it looked like it was going to be. It reminded me of Super Meat Boy but...

It's nearly impossible to get through Armikrog's opening sequence and keep a huge smile off of your face. Everything about the game from the art to the music to the writing is whimsical and reminiscent...

Deus Ex is a fascinating series\universe in my eyes. Having only played Human Revolution, my knowledge is sparse, but I've experienced enough to appreciate what the franchise has created. However, I was quite a bit younger when...

It seems as though noir detective tales are a big theme for gaming recently. Everyone has their take on it and now we get to see how a cute, cuddly bear with a drinking problem...

"Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known." - Carl Sagan No Man's Sky is finally here, and it has completely divided critics and gamers alike. It feels strange to be writing those words. Since...

I have played a ton of video games over the years. RPGs, visual novels, rhythm games; you name it and I’ve probably dipped my feet in the genre. Never in my life have I seen...

I’ve played a lot of RPGs over the years, and many of them have romance elements in them somewhere. Yet Conception 2: Children of the Seven Stars takes it a step further, blending elements from...

There are plenty of games out there that have you in the shoes of police officers. The SWAT and Police Quest franchies come to mind, as well as the likes of Rainbow Six. These games all have common themes, however. Rainbow...

It's a great time to be alive if you're a fan of Doom and Wolfenstein. Bethesda made sure we got some wonderful updates to the series and, well, if for some reason that isn't enough for you...

About eighteen months ago, I gave the lowest score of my career to a game that rode the “you get what you pay for” train to an infuriating degree. Since then I've been wary of...
