REVIEW: 'Deus Ex: Revision' (Mod)
If you don't know, Deus Ex is one of my favourite games. It's a 2000 PC classic released at the peak of the Golden Age that combines shooting, roleplaying, and stealth to create an experience never seen before or since. Even it's inferior sequels/prequels/awful mobile games keep trying to scale things back down.

REVIEW: 'Floor 13 "Pretty Alpha"'
You'll recall that Floor 13 was my second review on this site. Like many retro games, it's not a masterpiece; but it without a doubt deserves a place in gaming history for what it achieved. And what it achieved was being a fascinatingly disturbing strategy game.

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?

ARTICLE: Why I Won't Review 'Grim Fandango' / Why GOG.com Is The Messiah
Remember
when I said I was going to review Grim
Fandango: Remastered this week, in a simultaneous attempt to keep up with
current releases whilst ticking off another entry in my ‘games I should
probably play before I die’ list? Yeah, things have changed…

RETROSPECTIVE: 'Floor 13 (and upcoming remake)'
Thought
Papers Please was the first game
where you play a small yet important part of a totalitarian regime, and the
gameplay revolves entirely around paperwork? Prepare yourself for a history
lesson.
