Format – PC Version: 0.4.0.14 Top-down shooters are always a lot of fun but are often criticized for lacking depth.

Format – PS Vita It’s eight years since the last Micro Machines game, V4, came out. I knew it had been a while, but that came as something of a surprise when I looked it up. Perhaps four games was enough at the time, but now several years down the…

Format – PC I haven’t played, nor was I aware of, either Sacred 1 or Sacred 2. You could – rightfully – say I’m at a disadvantage picking up the story on Part 3, but never deterred, I blunder on in and take up the challenge of – hopefully – being…
Format – PC Version 1.01 After spending a good few hours with Gods Will Be Watching, I came to a brutal conclusion about the current state of the video games industry. Independent gaming has not only buried AAA, but it has stamped, weed and crapped all over its grave. AAA…
