Divinity: Original Sin Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD
Divinity: Original Sin Review    A couple of years ago, the Divinity franchise was resurrected from obscurity with Ego Draconis, a by-the-book RPG that had one amazing feature – you could turn into a dragon and lay waste to everything before you. Still, it wasn’t an especially inviting nor fascinating title, so its audience was spread thin, so to say. Definitely too thin to create a cult ...[Read More]

SNIPER ELITE III REVIEW
Sniper games have always held a certain fascination for me, the glorifying feeling of taking a soldier out from a great distance never gets old for me and the Sniper Elite series is admittedly my favourite among these games. Recently the series has extended onto the new generation of consoles in the form of Sniper Elite III from Rebellion and 505 Games. The major attraction for me, and so many mor...[Read More]
ABAN HAWKINS AND THE 1001 SPIKES REVIEW
Aban Hawkins And The 1001 Spikes is currently only available on the US store of Xbox. This is a huge shame as this platformer has so much to offer gamers it’s tantamount to robbing the developers when you buy it. Aban Hawkins is a man on a mission, quite a big mission in fact, in which you basically have to get through these catacombs of death the best way possible while leaving you the player wit...[Read More]

Qvadriga Review | MOUSE n JOYPAD
Qvadriga Review   Variations on a genre or a concept can be extremely different, especially given time and creative thinkers. For example, top down, or an eagle eye view, has always been a popular view for strategic games due to the nature of the genre and the availability of information from such a sight. Some developers may capitalize on this trend by making you, the player, a god-like entity...[Read More]
OUTLAST REVIEW
Few games over the years have made it into the list of what I would deem as a true survival horror, and fewer still have totally scared the crap out of me. Outlast is a game that now tops that list both on a scary level and on being a true survival horror. In fact, this game has probably scared me as much as any great horror movie I have ever watched. The developers of Outlast, Red Barrels, are ma...[Read More]
