Act of Aggression Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD

Act of Aggression Review    Act of Aggression is something special. If I had to choose my favourite RTS, if my life depended on it, I would only be able to narrow my choice down to two titles – Supreme Commander (Forged Alliance) and Command & Conquer Generals: Zero Hour. Two relatively similar, yet entirely different examples of the given genre from back when it was still one of the most...[Read More]

CALVINO NOIR REVIEW

Mystery is one of those genres I don’t think any studio has gotten right when it comes to modern video games. Probably the closest example to an entry doing it correctly is La Noire and Ghost Trick. It’s a shame too, because I spent hours back in the day playing Infocom classics like Deadline, Moonmist and Suspect. These games, despite not having any graphics, did mystery and discovery right, rely...[Read More]

One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3 Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD

One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3 Review    One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3 is an action game developed by Omega Force and published by Bandai Namco. It is, in many ways, a typical Bandai Namco game but it is one that I have grown rather fond of during the time I have been playing it. Bandai Namco have a reputation for making games out-with “The West” and it is fair to say that some games have had ...[Read More]

Imagine playing something like Supreme Commander from the perspective of a low-tier mech. Practical? Hell no. Awesome? Absolutely. Mind you, this has been done numerous t...[Read More]

Gryphon Knight Epic Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD

Gryphon Knight Epic Review    Gryphon Knight Epic attempts to revitalize the nostalgia for older games piece by piece; first, with pixel art and chiptunes, then with classic bullet hell gameplay, akin to so many games that have since been nearly forgotten. But, to be truly faithful to the source material, the difficulty must be high, and the resulting frustration immense – Gryphon Knight Epic...[Read More]
