Ah Diablo. The game that spawned an entire genre. There’s just something about going clickaclicka clickaclikca clickclick that speaks to a very primal reason why we play games. That simple and predictably repetitive activity becomes compulsive once players figure out that by doing it, they’re earning rewards.
Greenheart Games does need to be commended as they’ve crafted a solid, intelligent and well researched first entry into game design. Management genre fans will have much to love about Game Dev Tycoon, as it’s not afraid to punish players for making irresponsible decisions and squandering resources in a market...
The plot doesn’t require a back knowledge of the One Piece series, though it helps give each of the characters personality. Ultimately though, the only people that would even look at this game are fans of One Piece, and the game does a good job of recognising where its potential...
Real Boxing is a perfect example of why I love what the Vita is becoming. It’s one of the many indie games that are finding its way onto the console, and while it’s not worth buying a console for, once you have one of Sony’s powerhouses in your hands it’s...
Anyway, I’ve challenged, questioned and probed all I can. I’ve tried my best to criticise EU4 and only managed to moan about a few minor issues. Therefore, the only reasonable conclusion is that it’s a masterpiece. And it is. It’s Paradox’s best game to date, and they deserve to be...
Suda continues to be the preeminent surrealist of the games industry. His work is always interesting, and even though Killer is Dead’s gameplay itself is a little too unrefined for its own good, the thematic strength of it is enough to make it an interesting curiosity to sit on any...

A Realm Reborn is packed wall-to-wall with Final Fantasy-style costumes, chocobos, moogles and yet another brilliant music score. For lifelong fans of the Final Fantasy series, such as myself,...
It’s unfortunate that the fact the game is so unattractive and that the plot is as obtuse as what is found in most forms of high art, like opera and ballet. It’s unfortunate because it meant in the first round of reviews the rich story and themes flew over the...
Despite stumbling out of the gates early on, Shin Megami Tensei IV turns out to be a very entertaining JRPG title for the Nintendo 3DS, and is definitely worth a look for fans of the genre or the series itself.

I was really worried about this game. In an era where developers seem more interested in boiling every beloved franchise down to a cookie-cutter shooter, it takes real bravery to break out and do something different. Bringing a legitimate tactics structure into the third person shooter genre has given us...
