The Super Hot game was just released for PC, Mac and Linux on the 25th of February 2016. The Xbox One version will be coming sometime this March. There's no PlayStation 4 version. With that out of the way, we can talk about this unique first person shooter. I never thought I'd say this but in this FPS, standing still is way more important than running around and flanking enemies. Why? Because when you don't move time is slowed down to snail-like … [Read more...]

Street Fighter V Review – An Unfinished Game
Street Fighter V has been released on the 16th of February 2016. However, calling this title a full game would be lying. Capcom and Sony were forced - by themselves, mind you; to release Street Fighter V in February because they put too much money in e-sports. Missing the February tournament would have meant a lot of contractual obligations not met, and the competition put on hold. … [Read more...]
Far Cry Primal Review – More of the Same Old Good Stuff
Far Cry Primal is set in the Stone Age, shifting the medium from fast vehicles, radio communications and high-end weapons to clubs, bows, and taming animals. Hey, it's 10,000 BC, not only you'll not find any Wi-Fi signal, but maintaining any form of warmth and light means all kinds of peril. Takkar, who is the protagonist this time around, is relentlessly searching for members of his Wenja tribe, which got lost. They have been scattered all … [Read more...]
Unravel Game Review – Too Many Strings Attached
The Unravel game is one of the most quirkiest looking puzzle platformers we've ever laid our eyes upon.

Developed by Coldwood Studio, Unravel is Martin Sahlin's, the studio's creative director, somewhat personal project. When he took to the stage during E3 2015, with shaking hands grasping a woolly doll, he introduced the main … [Read more...]

Halo 5 Guardians Review – Feel Like a Super Soldier
Halo managed to spark my curiosity back in 2001. I remember that I was gifted an Xbox, and didn't really know what to do with it - being a PlayStation groupie and all. A friend of mine recommended me Halo: Combat Evolved, and immediately as I started it up I got sucked into its incredible universe. For more than half a year I was religiously playing Halo with my friends - all of our weekends were booked, and there was little to no time for other … [Read more...]
XCOM 2 Review – A Brutal Sequel
Train your soldiers to fight for humanity's survival, because, this time around, the human rebellion is on the offensive, and no longer a resolute defender. XCOM 2 follows in the footsteps of the critically acclaimed XCOM: Enemy Unknown, which appeared in 2012. You are in control of the human Resistance, commanding soldiers to rise up against the alien terror that has been ruling Earth for the past 20 years - the Advent. There are numerous … [Read more...]

Unless, you know, you want all of your loot stolen and zero chances at getting out of a Dark Zone area alive. The Division will be released on March the … [Read more...]
