Everything announced at the Dead By Daylight 8th Anniversary Celebration

There are just about enough modes to keep things interesting in Richman 11 but it isn’t brimming with content, even after ten other versions of it.

Cyber Citizen Shockman 3: The Princess from Another World Review

Unfortunately, Cyber Citizen Shockman 3: The Princess from Another World is simply another game for achievement fodder from Ratalaika Games.

Maize Review

I’m not sure whether it was because it was late at night, or whether I had watched one too many Children of the Corn films, but the opening to Maize was completely terrifying. Walking through tight rows of corn with blind corners everywhere, I was at my wits end wondering if anything was going to jump out at me. Thankfully though, the horror was all in my head and what followed was a short, but very pleasant journey through a unique game world.

SPLAT! INK has arrived on Xbox One!

The sequel to 2015’s racing simulator is available to download and buy now on Xbox One, PS4 and PC - and this time it comes promising more tracks, cars and events.

Surf World Series Review

Surfing has always been a strange concept in my eyes; it’s not like other ‘extreme’ sports in that this is much more weather dependant than far less ‘radical’ sports like Cricket or Golf. Maybe it’s because I was once very nearly sucked under by a wave off the coast of Portugal, one of the locations in this game. Or, maybe it’s because I am from a landlocked place - Leeds in the UK - and my nearest beaches on the East Coast such as Bridlington or Scarborough aren’t known as surfing hotspots. In fact, my nearest locale is about a seven hour drive away, which may well be the reason why. Which is why I am intrigued by Surf World Series. The way the waves serve up fluid quarter pipes for riders to get some air off, just like their skateboarding counterparts, sounds right up my street. But how does this transfer into a virtual environment?

Sonic Mania Review

Sonic Mania was announced alongside Sonic Forces last year to celebrate the titular character’s 25th anniversary. Whereas Sonic Forces will focus on the old and new versions of Sonic together, akin to Sonic Generations, Sonic Mania is a straight-up 2D side-scrolling platformer matching up with the series’ original titles. And this game really is a love letter for the fans of the original titles, led by project lead Christian Whitehead who was responsible for the ports of the first two Sonic games onto mobile, and later consoles.

5 Original Xbox games that must be on the Xbox One Backwards Compatible list

E3 2017 and many people tuned in to Microsoft's E3 conference to find out about the highly-anticipated Project Scorpio. Of course, we now know it as Xbox One X and it will be the world’s most powerful console. As we also discovered during the same conference, not only will the Xbox One X be able to run in native 4K, HDR, blah blah blah, but it will also be able to play games over 15 years old as part of the announced Original Xbox Backwards Compatibility! They confirmed that Crimson Skies: High Road to Revenge will be the first game available from the original Xbox and Microsoft have even gone as far to say they may be able to retrospectively add Achievements to first party games. So this got me thinking…
