    I picked this up a while back during a PSN sale, but hadn’t gotten around to really spending time with it until recently. I gotta say, I’m having a really good time playing this. I absolutely love the stealth gameplay in 2D, and the art direction is really fantastic, deeply inspired by traditional Chinese art.…

    During last week’s PSN holiday sale I picked up telltale’s Game of Thrones for a steal (as well as Tales of the Borderlands), and started playing episode 2 last night on PS4 (I played episode 1 on iPad when it first released last year). I quite enjoyed the first episode, story-wise, and what I’ve played…

    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…

  • The Order: 1886

    I had always been curious to play this, and at 10 bucks during a recent PSN sale, I finally took the plunge. I’ve only played an hour or two so far, but it’s certainly one of the nicest looking games I’ve seen – realistic-looking graphic fidelity doesn’t get much nicer than this in games, me…

    Like the rest of the planet, I’m playing Fallout 4. After an initial big night of play of 4-5 straight hours, I’ve decided to take it easy, and just do 1-2 hour sessions every once in a while. I want to slowly savor it, but at the same time, I find that it’s a pretty…

    I used to play all of the Telltale games, but finally got to a point where I was burnt out on them – it even happened before, and then I felt a spurt of interest when Game of Thrones and Tales of the Borderlands launched, but after playing through the first episode of each, even…

  • Destiny

    I don’t usually revisit a game here, especially one that I’ve owned for about a year, but a strange thing happened with Destiny. I had given up on it fairly early on, despite getting really excited for it after I played the Alpha release in the summer of 2014. I loved many aspects of the…

  • Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris

    I liked the first Lara Croft game in this series, and although I was interested in playing Osiris, it’s only now that it’s come out as a PS+ free game that I’ve gotten to play it. I haven’t had a chance to play co-op yet – which is where these games really shine – but…

  • Galak-Z

    Another game I was quite excited to finally get to play was the long awaited (mostly because I had been following its development) Galak-Z. I really liked Skulls of the Shogun (from the same studio), and knew that this game would have a fantastic visual sense (which it does), but it’s also a joy to see…

    I love platforming, but I’m not particularly attracted to games that punish me – I only truly got into Dark Souls once I was able to play it with a couch co-pilot, who coached me through it. I always liked what I saw from the N series, but never ended up playing it that much…
