Joylancer: Legendary Motor Knight Preview | MOUSE n JOYPAD

Joylancer: Legendary Motor Knight Preview    Joylancer is a new early access 2D indie platformer currently available on Steam and itch.io. While half of this introductory sentence may have you thinking this is a contrived play on your nostalgic heart and purse strings.

CALL OF DUTY: ADVANCED WARFARE REVIEW

The yearly update to the Call Of Duty franchise finally arrived last week, a franchise that has been getting yearly releases since 2007.

Let’s Play Borderlands The Pre-Sequel | MOUSE n JOYPAD

Let’s Play Borderlands The Pre-Sequel   I ask you to once again step into my sanctum sanctorum and spend some time with me, Tickles, as I blast my way through Borderlands The Pre-Sequel. Low gravity fighting has never looked as inept as it does when I take control of Wilhelm for this Mouse n Joypad Let’s Play.

Randal’s Monday Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD

Randal’s Monday Review    It’s really nice to see the classical point ‘n’ click adventures standing on their own two feet lately. With Telltale experimenting with a more dynamic gameplay style, Pheonix Online and Daedalic are free to employ other, less known devs under their wing and share the spotlight. With this “struggle” going on, it’s no wonder new, inventive games (at ...[Read More]

Nosgoth Preview | MOUSE n JOYPAD

Nosgoth Preview    *Note: I’ll only be talking about the standard setup for each class Vampires have fallen into obscurity recently. What I mean by that is you can now move 10 feet in any direction without being overwhelmed by the vampire-related books, films and TV shows that used to swamp the entertainment industry.

Why I Love Steam

There’s a reason people love Steam. It may not be all that dependable, it may not be goddamn perfect, but it’s sleek, it’s nice and it keeps ALL of your games nicely prepped up for playing. There’s a reason people don’t love Origin. Do you know what that is? It’s not a bad service per se, not by a long shot. It’s nice, they’ve got sales and all that. But the thing is – it’s not Steam. It forces me...[Read More]

HALO: THE MASTER CHIEF COLLECTION REVIEW

Before I start with the review it will benefit you to know that I am essentially a grumpy little man, I dislike most companies’ executions of DLC, pre order bonuses and so-called “HD remakes”. Most of the time it looks to me like nothing but money grabbing and I generally moan about it endlessly, much to the annoyance of anyone who will listen. I say this not to bore you or even so you can get to ...[Read More]
