When I first purchased my PS5, the game that grabbed me the hardest and justified why I’d just bought the new console was Astro’s Playroom. Now sure, that may have been because it was a pack in title that everyone got with the console, but that point aside, Astro’s Playroom wasn’t just a small gimmick demo, it’s still one of … Read More

Nintendo had the world pondering the possibilities when it unveiled its ‘Who is Emio?’  campaign earlier this year. The creepy trailer had everyone wondering what this horror experience would turn out to be. Thankfully we didn’t have to wait long to find out, and I’m even more thankful that we didn’t have a multi-year long wait to actually get the … Read More

It’s no secret that ever since Disney has taken over ownership of the franchise, there’s been no shortage of Star Wars media coming at us left, right and centre. Some of it clearly better than others and when it comes to the movies and tv series, it’s showing no signs of slowing down. When it comes to video games though, … Read More

Japanese RPGs have an amazing ability to get you completely immersed in grand fantastical worlds, largely thanks to their vast worlds, engaging characters and mesmerising plots. I’m a massive fan of the genre, which will be to the surprise of no one that’s checked out my previous reviews here. But one series that’s always been on the backburner was the … Read More

When I reviewed Elden Ring when it released back in 2022, I praised it for it’s incredible design and worldbuilding and said that it would be a game that I would likely return to for a long time to come. And I did, as do many, many others. To this day, I continue to find new areas and enemies that … Read More

The Sand Land series has seen a lot of love recently. In just the past year, it’s gone from being a small and fairly niche piece of Akira Toriyama’s catalogue thanks to a film, anime series and now a video game adaptation. As I mentioned back when I previewed the game, I was initially worried that due to the original … Read More

A new Final Fantasy game never fails to excite me. Sure, over the years the series has certainly seen it’s ups and downs, and some of the spin-off titles aren’t super great by comparison, but the series still holds a big place in my heart given it’s been a staple series I’ve loved since childhood. And after experiencing the original … Read More

It’s no secret that I’m a fan of the Persona series. There’s just nothing like getting attached to a great cast of characters, managing day-to-day activities, fusing and raising Personas and getting to uncover the overarching mysteries that feature within their games. Yes they are very long games (hence the delay on this review) but I’ve never seen that as … Read More
