I'm the owner and editor of GameSpew.com, which I created alongside my partner in 2015. I write news, reviews, features and list, along with wrangling code, fixing technical issues, drowning in emails and everything else that goes along with running a website. Previously, I was the production editor of Kotaku UK and Gizmodo UK. Away from games, I also run ThatBrickSite.com, a Lego-focused site, and I freelance for Space.com and LiveScience.com.

It’s not all bad though. Republique tries to do something different, and although the story doesn’t feel fleshed out enough to be completely engrossing, it’s still got a few hooks to keep you playing; eager to find out more about Hope and her strange surroundings. Fans of stealth will likely forgive the...

It’s probably safe to say that Catlateral Damage is a bit like Marmite: you’re either going to love it or hate it. If you’re a cat person, you’ll surely find several hours worth of novelty entertainment here, but otherwise you might just miss the point of the game. It’s not...

Far Cry Primal is an epic adventure that really encourages you to sink your teeth into the incredible world it offers up to you. Despite a “few” historical inaccuracies and silly nuances, Primal‘s world is believable and immersive, even down to the language spoken – there’s no English accents to be found here....

Despite my misgivings of the LEGO franchise, there’s no denying their success and popularity. It may reuse an age-old template, but it’s one that works and that never fails to bring some kind of enjoyment, no matter your age or gaming preferences. Anybody can pick up and play a LEGO...

Sparkle 2 isn’t going to be a game that you’re going to stay up all night playing, nor is it a game that you’ll call in sick to work for, but it is a game that you won’t be deleting from your hard drive any time soon. It’s the type...

Those that played Amplitude back on PlayStation 2 may be able to gleam some nostalgic enjoyment from its modern offerings, but unfortunately, in a world where Rock Band and Guitar Hero rule the music rhythm game genre there isn’t much room for a little spaceship and its collection of repetitive techno tracks. Had...

It’s hard to find anything to dislike about Persona 4: Dancing All Night. Its captivating storyline will likely have you hooked, and the unique gameplay makes it stand out from the crowd. If you’re a fan of the Persona series, it’s a no brainer that you need this in your collection....

I can’t help but love Guitar Hero Live. The more mature, and frankly flawless, visuals of the game coupled with the new controller works much better than I could have anticipated. The fact that everyone is, once again, a complete newbie is refreshing; we all get to enjoy those small victories...

Perhaps it comes down to the fact I was forced to live out decisions that I didn’t want to make. Perhaps, after having built bonds with these characters over the last nine months, I didn’t like the fact that the game made me experience consequences that I didn’t want to...

Whilst Armikrog may be a short experience, and it may not be the most realised or polished game ever made – for example, the menus are pretty sparse and your in-game cursor is just the standard system cursor – these things don’t detract from the overall experience of the game....

Despite its downfalls, Tearaway Unfolded is a fantastic platformer that any fan of the genre should check out. Its gorgeous visuals go a long way into making the janky controls forgivable, and the delightful character designs, excellent storytelling and unforgettable soundtrack all add up to one very pleasant platform experience that PlayStation...

But these negative points are barely even minor blemishes to what is otherwise an incredibly well accomplished open world experience. In terms of value for money, Mad Max offers upwards of 50 hours’ worth of content, and you can’t get more bang for your buck than that. The sheer breadth...
