Review - XCOM: Chimera Squad (Part 1)
23 Sep 2020
23 Sep 2020
I haven’t done a game review in a while, mainly because I don’t play games close to their release dates any more. They’re just too expensive and I’ve had too many disappointments in the past. However, I not only bought XCOM: Chimera Squad soon after it was released, but I also...
Mass Effect: Andromeda - First Impressions
19 Aug 2017
19 Aug 2017
Bioware’s controversial Mass Effect sequel released a few months ago. They got a serious - and possibly well-deserved - slating from critics and gamers alike for releasing an “unfinished” game, full of bugs and animation problems. I actually cancelled my pre-order as a result of the media sh*t-storm, which is something...
XCOM 2: First Impressions

10 Feb 2016
I can’t remember being as excited for a video game as I’ve been about XCOM 2, the sequel to Firaxis’ XCOM: Enemy Unknown (one of my favourite games of all time). I’ve been soaking up all the preview videos and developer livestreams and now I’ve finally got my hands on the...

Last year saw the release of XCOM: Enemy Unknown, a sequel to a popular gaming franchise from the creators of Civilisation. I didn’t expect to become a fan of this game, but (as with Civilisation) I ended up getting sucked in. This month sees the release of the game’s expansion: Enemy...
Review: Guild Wars 2

22 Aug 2013
Blizzard’s MMO giant World of Warcraft is now 8 years old and it is finally starting to lose its players, yet it is still the most successful online game out there. A few contenders have come along, but whether they were not as well-made or well-written or just lacked whatever it...
Review - Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm
15 Mar 2013
15 Mar 2013
It’s been nearly three years since Starcraft 2 - Wings of Liberty was finally released. It was the sequel to a game that is one of the best-selling and most critically-acclaimed strategy games of all time and a personal favourite of mine. It was also a sequel that, itself, was released...
