The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is a game developed by CD Project RED. It was made available for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. The Witcher 3 Xbox One version came out on May 19, 2015, just like the other versions available for the other two platforms.

Super Hot Game Review – It’s Super and It’s Hot
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...]
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. Unfortunately, it' just that, and while the game unfolds, you quickly realize how poorly knitted Unravel really is. 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...]
Enjoy the Bad Spooky Teen Drama in our Oxenfree Review
Oxenfree is a gorgeous game, with an absolutely stunning art-direction. It looks like its backgrounds, characters and objects are painted on a canvas and transposed to the digital medium. The score that accompanies the beautiful setting really sets the mood for a horror game, with well-chosen music and top-notch sound bites. I was so eager to play it and I even cancelled plans to hang out with friends, but, in the end, I wished I didn't. I … [Read more...]
Fallout 4 Review – A Beautiful Wasteland
Calling Fallout 4 a captivating game is an understatement. Deep within Bethesda's title, gamers will find an engrossing world filled with mystery and adventure. The gruesome wasteland is riddled with mutants, vicious animals and the worst kind of monster there is - other human beings. Step inside the post-nuclear world at your own peril. Your character will evolve from an eager go-getter to a jaded wasteland warrior by exploring the Boston … [Read more...]
Rebel Galaxy Review – Get on Your Ship, Space Cowboy
Rebel Galaxy is a space combat action RPG that reminds me too much of Firefly - die-hard fans know how hard it is to be remembered of the best space western to have ever seen the light of day. Only Cowboy Bepop and Serenity live to its standard - and one of them is a Firefly movie. But I digress, as usual. My first impressions of Rebel Galaxy weren't that good. My ship was moving way too slow, boosters depleted too easily and I couldn't kill … [Read more...]
Mad Max Video Game Review – Witness me!
The Mad Max video game was developed by the same studio that brought us the Just Cause franchise - Avalanche Studios. After becoming obsessed with the movie, I just had to see if the game was on par. The game starts with Max fighting for his life - and car; unfortunately, the intro scene isn't playable at all and it leaves you a little bit jaded. I still don't understand why the developer didn't make it a quick-time event, but at least it was … [Read more...]
The Witcher 3 Hearts of Stone Review – A Satisfying DLC
The Witcher 3 Hearts of Stone brings a new Geralt to the table - a not-so jagged beast hunter, but a more humane witcher. If you haven't played the base Witcher 3, stop what you're doing, read this review, and get the game NOW! It starts by introducing Geralt's main antagonist Olgierd von Everec, who is one of the most alluring characters you'll ever find in the game series. I might even go as far as saying that he conveys the archetype of a … [Read more...]
