As a fan of the anime Attack on Titan, this game was an absolute must for me to pick up. With epic titan killing in all its glory, it just seemed so right. But how does Attack on Titan 2 compare to my expectations? Let’s just say, hype doesn’t necessarily...

Have you seen the trailer for Past Cure? It pulls you in with its antics and promises a game that does the Thriller genre justice. But the question remains: does this indie title from Phantom 8 Studios have what it takes to not only grab hold of it’s generated interest...

Riptide GP: Renegade, or Riptide for short, is similar to games like Hydro Thunder, Wave Race and the SSX series. As I spent countless hours playing these games growing up, I needed to get my hands on this game. While not quite the same as the games listed above, Riptide...

Nowhere Studios did a great job marketing Monochroma as all of the trailers and initial gameplay show off the stunning graphics and a promising game premise. These are the aspects that caught my eye originally. Unfortunately, while Monochroma looks great, it doesn’t play half as great. The game premise and...

After reading the review written by Nicholas Plouffe on our site I was curious how Shadow Blade: Reload would perform on a console instead of the PC. As he suggests, it is a lot easier to maneuver around the levels having the mobility of a controller. I found that the...

After playing the first Azkend game on my android I was interested to see how the second one played on the Xbox One. The original Azkend was fun, but simple, and I hoped Azkend 2: The World Beneath would be a bit more complex. Thankfully it is, bringing more to the...
