With its rising popularity, my saying that my favourite Pokémon is Mimikyu feels like a much more basic answer than it once did. The little creepy dude who is a fairy and ghost type in the games has always appealed to me for its sad design and the echoes of horror tropes in his disguise. When…
You’ll have to forgive me, but I’m pretty new to the Mass Effect trilogy. For whatever reason the series passed me by back in the day, but I’ve finally been able to catch up and see what all the fuss is about thanks to the recently released Legendary Edition. I’m very happy to say that I can…
Big shocks were in store for readers of Marel comics as the publisher and creative teams recently revealed that Miles Morales has a daughter. Yeah, we’re just as shocked as you are. There are some spoilers to come in this article, where we’ll discuss Spider-Man: Reign 2, so scram if you want to go…
Pokémon fans are theorising what the next mainline game could be like, not Pokémon Legends: Z-A, the game beyond. As far as we’re all aware, the next Pokémon game will be Pokémon Legends: Z-A which will presumably be a launch title for the Nintendo Switch 2 sometime in 2025. Check out the brief…
Legendary Star Wars villain General Grievous has been unmasked and fans are freaking out. Making his debut in the animated series Star Wars: Clone Wars (2003) before making his live-action debut in the movie Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith (2005), he’s been one of the most popular…
Doing the job that I do, reading certain articles and trawling social media on a daily basis, one thing is becoming more and more likely: GTA VI is never going to live up to expectations. Let’s look at this objectively and take in a few stats. GTA V has sold over 200 million units worldwide, which…
If you were to ask me if I like Grand Theft Auto, I’d give you a hearty yes. As a teenager when the original game dropped onto PC and PlayStation back in the 1990s, I played each title as the franchise evolved from a top-down arcade adventure to a fully-fledged 3D epic. When GTA IV came out in…
Prime Video’s Fallout didn’t just make for entertaining TV viewing. It encouraged us all to venture back into Bethesda’s acclaimed video game series. In fact, we flocked in our millions and while the dust now may have settled on that particular moment in time, I’m imagining that some of you out…

It is hard to believe that it has been almost thirty years since The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time was first released but now thanks to one fan, we can play it in Unreal Engine 5 for the first time. First released in 1998 for the Nintendo 64 before receiving an “enhanced version” for the…
PlayStation 5 owners are experiencing a major issue following the recent system update. There’s been a lot of discourse surrounding PlayStation lately, though the majority of it has been regarding the now unveiled PS5 Pro. Not only do its performance gains seem minimal, but its price and potential…
Black Myth: Wukong performed well critically, garnering a score of 82. With that in mind, it always felt like a game that was destined to somewhat perform well commercially. I say somewhat because let’s not forget that the game was marred with controversy, namely over influencers being told not to…
Sometimes, waiting before you cash in all those Xbox points pays off. Xbox users have been left in awe of one gamer’s financial savvy skills after said gamer ended up with $400 worth of free store credit. As distracting as it is to learn that a major 2024 Xbox release is headed to PlayStation, you…
As much as I enjoy exploring other genres, I always return to cosy games whenever the land calls to me to don my straw hat and wellies once more. Yet, as much as I love the good life it conveys, the genre has become stagnant of late. Too many developers have attempted to capture the magic that…

The Walking Dead television show may have finally ended back in 2022 but with multiple spin-offs airing since, it seems fans are still eager for more of that zombie action. Running from 2010 to 2022, The Walking Dead was a hit horror drama set in the wake of a zombie apocalypse. Check out the…
Tales Of The Shire is an adorable little title that seems almost perfect for fans of Lord Of The Rings and Stardew Valley. The Lord Of The Rings and The Hobbit films have treated fans to some iconic locations, many of which are places fans have wanted to visit in real-life for years. Out of all of…
I was recently in the beautiful city of Gouda where, quite by chance, I found myself one of the few England fans in a square full of Netherlands supporters for the Euros semi-final. I know: a football story at the start of a video game review? Stay with me, though. I like to think we were congenial…

Need For Speed Underground fans can enjoy a brand-new mode as part of a surprise update, and it’s available right now. As far as racing titles go you might often associate the genre with Forza or Gran Turismo, and as you should, they’re fantastic. Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door remake is out…
Batman: Arkham City has never looked better thanks to a remaster mod you can download for yourself right now. If Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League left a bad taste in your mouth, I’d highly-recommend cleansing your palette with another playthrough of the Batman: Arkham Trilogy, you’ll have a…
It's been a while since the Need for Speed series has been at the top of its game but if you've still got a taste for the old-school entries, then this gorgeous remaster may be worth your attention. Back in the 2000s, it was certainly a golden era of video games with the likes of Halo: Combat…
