‘metal gear solid v: the phantom pain’ is stunning – but is it sexist?

‘Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain’ Is Stunning – but Is It Sexist?

I have a confession to make to all the MGS die-hards out there – up till now I’ve never played a single title in the entire history of the franchise. I’m a neophyte to the weird world of Big Boss, bipedal nuke carrying mechas, terror and counter-terror plots, and abounding corniness and pretension stemming from the…

Magic 2014 – Game Review

I’ve enjoyed Magic: the Gathering for a long time, so when MtG 2014 went on sale on Steam I decided to drop a couple of bucks and get it. Frankly, I’m not sure if I’m happy or disappointed with my purchase.  Initial Impressions On the one hand, MtG 2014 is just that: Magic: the Gathering….

DARK Review

I’m just going to go ahead and say this from the outset – DARK is not a good game. It’s so bad, in fact, that I couldn’t even bring myself to finish it. I tried. I really did. I just couldn’t do it. Is that unprofessional of me? Maybe, but honestly, at this point, I…

Gears of war judgement: review

Gears of War Judgement: Review

I’ve always been a Gears of War fan. Lots of alien blasting, curb-stomping, chainsawing, blood and guts, explosions etc. etc. If I’m in a certain type of mood, I can sit blasting grubs for hours at a time. It’s brilliant. It even throws an exciting and emotive story along side it all. What’s not to…
