    When I picked this up, I hadn’t really played a Far Cry game extensively since the second one (I dabbled a bit in Far Cry 3), but I was really attracted to the prehistoric setting, and so was really excited for this to come out. Since I’d been out of Far Cry games for so…

    When I started playing this game the other night I complained on Twitter that I was finding the first mission much harder than when I played it in the Beta, before the game’s release (which isn’t too surprising, as a lot of games make their demos/betas slightly easier, so as not to frustrate potential customers).…

    I’ll just join the masses in singing the praises of this game, which I really quite enjoyed. To its credit, after being absolutely exhausted following my first week of work at a new job, on Friday night, it still managed to suck me into its world to the point where I played pretty much the…

    I really enjoyed my time with Braid, and I was definitely interested to see what Jonathan Blow’s follow-up game would be like. I might not normally have bought this, since I’m not really big into playing puzzle games, but my wife loves them immensely, and so I figured that this was a game that we…

    I’ve just had a quick taste of Nom Nom Galaxy – also part of this month’s PlayStation Plus lineup – but it definitely feels nice to be playing a PixelJunk game again (my last one was Shooter 2). It’s not generally the style of game I’m attracted to – building/developing – but just like I…

    I first experience Nova-111 a few years ago at BitSummit in Kyoto, while also recording a PechaKucha presentation with its creator, Eddie Lee, and I really liked what I played. I’ve finally gotten around to playing the full game – it’s offered this month as part of PlayStation Plus, and I’m playing the PS4 version –…

    I’ve been itching to get into a big racing game of late – outside of my regular Mario Kart online playing, the last racing game I played extensively was Driveclub – and so when I saw that Project CARS was on sale this week on the PSN Store, I jumped on it. My first taste…

    I’m embarrassed to say I never got around to playing the original Vita version, but was quite excited at the prospect of the PS4 version – looking all pretty like it does – and finally picked it up over the holidays during a PSN sale. In my post about LittleBigPlanet 3 I was saying how…

  • LittleBigPlanet 3

    I love this series so damn much, and as I’ve said before, I think it’s one of the best art directed bunch of games ever (although I’ve just started playing Tearaway Unfolded, and that’s blowing me away as well). I finally got around to playing LittleBigPlanet 3 over the holidays – grabbing it during one…

    There’s no denying that Destiny has played a huge role in my gaming life this year – it also has the distinction of being the game I’ve played the most, ever (total hours). Sometime in late October I did finally burn out on it – partly in frustration that I wasn’t managing to level up…
