Throughout the history we have learned that no matter how great and important your gaming franchise is, there will be a least one game in your franchise that will be considered bad. In the Souls saga you have Dark Souls 2, in the BioShock saga you have BioShock 2 and in the Devil May franchise you have Devil May Cry 2 (because in this house we think that the DMC reboot is very good). It is funny because there 3 games I mentioned before are very solid games in their own right but let’s get more serious since these are…

When we say Castlevania, we’re really referring to two very different gameplay styles. The original Castlevania was released back in 1986 and is a linear platformer in which hero Simon Belmont must traverse a series of levels full of hazards and enemies. Beginning with 1987’s Castlevania II: Simon’s Quest, however, and continuing with 1997’s Symphony of the Night, a more non-linear gameplay style emerged for the franchise. Fear not: whichever of the two styles you prefer, you’re covered on the Switch. Here’s our list of the best Switch games like Castlevania (whichever type you like!) in 2022. Bloodstained: Ritual of…

If there’s one genre for which VR is absolutely perfect, it’s horror. There are few gaming genres that can inspire such visceral emotion as horror, so removing one of the barriers to immersion – that is to say, the player’s distance from the action – makes things even more tense and thrilling.

Nintendo’s N64 console was the first venture by the company to embrace true 3D. While games like Star Fox had flirted with rudimentary forms of the technology before, the N64 presented fully polygonal environments for players to explore in games like The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Super Mario 64.  Happily, if you were the kind of gamer who liked to have friends round for a few bouts of something competitive (or co-operative, of course), the N64 also boasted four controller ports without needing to buy additional peripherals.  Of course, that also meant it was important for the…

Music is an integral part in our lives and it is also a very important aspect in video games. Going from “bleeps and bloops” to orchestral pieces of arts, the soundtrack in a video game is something that adds a lot of weight when you are playing or just reviewing a game.

The PS3 was a console that brought a lot of joy in my teenager days and I’m sure that applies to many of you. It is not only one of the definitive consoles of the previous decade, but also one that proved the maxim that not everything needs to hit the ground running to work. Despite the slower start compared to the great PS1 and the universally acclaimed and almost immortal PS2, Sony was able to turn the tables and release one amazing exclusive after the other, but we are not here to talk only about the exclusives. We are…

Gaming can be an incredible medium for storytelling. Interactivity means that a video game can tell stories in ways that other media simply can’t; they can make us inhabit a character intimately and personally, feeling every action they take and every decision they make with a connection that non-interactive media can’t give us.  As you’d imagine, there are many games out there that take advantage of this incredible potential, so let’s take a look at the 20 best story-driven games to play right now. 1. Final Fantasy VII Many Final Fantasy games have come and gone since the seventh…

If modern AAA games just aren’t doing it for you, rest assured that you’re not alone.

The vaults of retro gaming are full of treasures both appreciated and underrated, so without further ado, let’s take a look at 20 classic retro games that are well worth revisiting. 1. Super Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Island We’re going to try to limit ourselves to one game per franchise…

For many months now, speculation has swirled regarding when Nintendo is planning to announce its Switch successor. Many say that the current console is underpowered, pointing to games like Pokemon Scarlet and Violet as evidence that the Switch simply doesn’t have the technical prowess to keep up with graphical and performance advances.  If you ask us, though, the Switch still has plenty of life left in it; the console is perfectly capable of playing most indie games, and it can run Nintendo’s own first-party endeavours just fine, too. Here are the best Nintendo Switch games arriving in April 2023. …

There was a time when anything free in the world of gaming would have been regarded with suspicion. If a game was free, it was either a demo, a shareware product, or too good to be true.

With that in mind, you’ve got a lot of options if you want to game without spending any money these days. Here are the 20 best free-to-play games available online right now. 1.

Rest in peace, Kinect: we hardly knew ye. The Kinect was originally introduced in 2010 as an additional accessory for Microsoft’s hugely popular Xbox 360, bringing motion and voice control to the console. A lack of killer apps for the peripheral, as well as some strange missteps on Microsoft’s part when it came to the Xbox One, led to Kinect’s pretty much complete failure, but that doesn’t mean there were no decent games for it. Here are the 25 best Xbox 360 Kinect games you can play. 1. Dead Space 3 In retrospect, Dead Space 3 wasn’t a great game…

Real-time tactics is a rather curious genre. It essentially takes the basic idea of real-time strategy gameplay – ordering units around a reactive map – and removes resource management and base-building, instead choosing to focus on a highly specific set of specialised units with their own special powers and abilities. Into this storied genre have come excellent games like Desperados, Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun, and Commandos, and now, developer Mercat Games is throwing its own tricorn hat into the ring with Frigato: Shadows of the Caribbean. In essence, this is a real-time tactics game with a strong emphasis…
