Hi there. We’re heading to the newer end of our normal reviewing territory today (so about 10-ish years ago), although there are plenty of echoes of older games here, in Wadjet Eye’s sci-fi adventure, Gemini Rue.

Hello and welcome to the latest Discussion: [indie game] (spoilers!), a series which, I’ve just decided, needs no further explanation in the introduction. I’m sure you can work it out, readers, even if you’re new around here. Today’s game is Telling Lies, a spiritual sequel (of sorts) to the subject of our very first indie […]

Hi all. There’s a new Jurassic Park film out at the moment (or are these new ones technically Jurassic World films?) After re-watching the old movies I was in the mood to give Telltale’s 2011 game a go too. So, that’s today’s review. [We really must have a meeting about these review intros – Ed.]

Soundtracks is where we take a look back at the use of licensed music in games. Go here if you want to know more. Hello and welcome to Soundtracks. Today’s game is Burnout Paradise, a 2008 racer from Criterion that lots of people seem to like but which we found to be competent, but slightly […]

Hello everyone. Today’s game is a return to the Need for Speed franchise, and a remake/reboot of a previously successful instalment. Here’s a review of the 2012 edition of Need for Speed: Most Wanted. Plus, a reminder that we have a brief history of all of the Need for Speed games we’ve covered here, the […]

I’ve recently had to downgrade my awareness of modern football games from ‘slightly out of touch’ to ‘haven’t really played one properly for 10 years or so’. Since PES 2010, and a brief flirtation with FIFA at around the same time, it’s largely been a case of buying one or other of the two big […]

Hello once again and welcome to Discussion: [indie game] (spoilers!), a series with a title that should be self-explanatory but which still prompts me to attempt further elaboration at the top of each and every piece. If you like fairly rambling discussions about indie adventures with a story, you’re in the right place. Be careful, […]

Cricket games were once released so infrequently that I used to end up buying pretty much each and every one, at some point. If there was one that I thought might be good, I’d get it on release, but even those that I was fairly sure would be disappointing, I’d look out for in sales […]

Hi everyone. It’s the Winter Olympics! In real life! Right now! Which is all the incentive I need to dust off some old tie-in game in search of some virtual glory. Here’s a look at Vancouver 2010.

Hello again, and welcome to our latest instalment of Discussion: [indie game] (spoilers!), a series which usually involves a moderately lively back-and-forth on the topic of a relatively modern indie title. Having covered one particular type of game pretty much exclusively so far, we’ve drawn a line under walking sims for now, capping things off […]
