    This is one of the offering’s from PS+ this month, and I’d actually been quite looking forward to playing it, having heard good things – I remember one friend in particular, who’s judgement I trust, saying how much he enjoyed it. Well, it’s indeed a blast to play, feeling like what a Gauntlet game should…

    Yet another PS+ free game I was happy to get, I’m having a lot of fun with CounterSpy so far. I remember that it got so-so reviews when it came out, but I was always really attracted to the stylish art direction, 2D gameplay, and, well, I just really like spy stuff. I’ve only had…

    Yet another great PS+ release this month, this time the updated version of Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee, called New ‘n’ Tasty. Abe’s Oddysee was one of my favorite PS1 games, and I even played it again 3-4 years ago on PSP. How’s this update? Fantastic. This is more than just a simple HD upgrade, as it…

    Even though I’ve played a few of them, I was never really that into the Tony Hawk games – or even the Skate series, which I admittedly liked better, the first one – but I was interested to play the first OlliOlli when it came out, as the 2D gameplay looked refreshing. I never got…

    Just take a look at the screenshot above. This game has such a fantastic look to it, and the greek/roman history geek in me just can’t get enough of it. In terms of gameplay, it did take some to get used to it – at first I didn’t really like the way the character controlled,…

    The HD remake of this game was a recent offering on PS+ – I’m not sure if it’s still available – and I’m sure glad I gave it a whirl. Although I’m well aware of the original, I don’t think I had ever played it, and so never had any particular attachment to this. The…

    This is the PS4 offering from PS+ this month, and I’ve been having a blast playing it (I think I’m almost done). It’s basically a modern take on the point-and-click adventure genre, and so the game is all about encountering characters and solving puzzles, which amount to you finding items, and then giving them to…
