They may not have the highest of profiles, but between dedicated horror games such as a new Flight Simulator, indie rock adventures in No Straight Roads and flinging a foolish samurai into battle against an ancient evil, I'm digging what I'm seeing so far.

By Darryn Bonthuys

Sucker Punch's samurai simulator has layers of raw emotion bubbling beneath the surface, turbulent explosions of emotion that manifest throughout the journey and a soundtrack that enhances those themes with its own audio journey that is both subtle and explosive when it needs to be.

Paper Mario: The Origami King Review – Paper Jam

By Darryn Bonthuys

There’s a lot of joy to be found in Paper Mario: The Origami King, but its largely shallow combat and monotonous nature makes for a shallow experience that crumples under pressure.

Destroy all Humans Review! – Invader Sim

in :  Features, Gaming, Reviews
2

It may be a bit of a stretch to see if any game holds up after 15 years, but Destroy All Humans! is still a mindless romp of manic mass destruction that excels in the replayability department. A brilliantly polished slice of nostalgia, Destroy All Humans! knows exactly where to focus its energies with its silly story, updated gameplay and a graphical overhaul that is light-years ahead of the original invasion.

Rock of Ages 3 may falter in the gameplay department thanks to repetition, uneven AI and a wobbly foundation for its strategy, but its madly charming presentation and a dedicated community of fans should be able to sculpt something gneiss out of this brave and boulder game.

Ghost of Tsushima is a game that tackles some big themes throughout its many hours, pointing players in a direction that allows them to revel in a massive world under siege, embark on lengthy campaigns and wage war against impossible odds. It’s all typical of the genre, but where the game truly finds its groove is in the beats between those humongous setpieces.

Here’s everything that Nintendo announced in their sweet and short Direct yesterday

Nintendo popped a surprise Direct announcement online yesterday, one that was as short as it was sweet. Focused more on the indie side of gaming instead of massively-anticipated high profile games, it was still a focused slice of games that are on the horizon. With an eye on quality and brands that have made a comfy home on the Switch and definitely not any of the roughly three trillion shovelware titles that currently infest that marketplace, the road ahead looks pretty darn good for fans of smaller scale games!
