REVIEW: ‘Mount And Blade: Warband’

This will no doubt make me lose a lot of credibility as a reviewer and gamer in general…but I don’t really like sandbox games. 

RETROSPECTIVE: 'Thief Gold' AND 'Thief 2: The Metal Age'

  

The Golden Age Of PC Gaming is thus named because it was a time when genres were both defined and created. First-person shooters had been around for a while, but it soon occurred that there could be more to these Doom-clones than just shooting armies of bad guys. For example: What if you take the two basic instincts of a gamer – killing and looting – but get rid of the killing part and make it all about the looting? 

REVIEW: 'SuperHOT' (Trial)

Once again, whilst waiting for the sequel to an indie game I really like, I’ve decided to discuss the original so we all get a bit of context. Except SuperHOT is different to Hotline Miami because it’s barely long enough to qualify as a game, and rather than a sequel we’re actually awaiting a version that has an actual plot. 

RETROSPECTIVE: 'The Secret Of Monkey Island' AND 'Monkey Island 2' (Special Editions)

 

With the headache that was Grim Fandango:Remastered still not quite gone, I thought that I would look at another LucasArts adventure game that’s been remastered . Well, that and the sequel – because when am I going to get the chance to talk about Monkey Island again?
