PC Previews

Armored Warfare Preview   Armored Warfare is under development by Obsidian Entertainment and My.com, and is a free to play tank shooter much in the style of World Of Tanks which we all know. Recently I was able to get some hands on time with the game, and also have a chat to the guys from Obsidian Entertainment and My.com on what they are trying to achieve by bringing Armored Warfare to th...[Read More]

Albedo: Eyes from Outer Space Preview The first impression one gets as they launch Albedo: Eyes from Outer Space and watch the introduction for the first time is of cheesy 1960s TV sci-fi horror movies. However, get past that initial impression, stick with it a little longer and give it a chance – you will find a rewarding puzzle-cum-first-person shooter type game. As the description of&Ac...[Read More]

Randal’s Monday Preview   Grass is green, sky is blue and Daedalic Entertainment is very fond of point ‘n’ click adventures. Coming from a long line of games published by Daedalic that were usually among the second best in this ancient genre is Randal’s Monday – a rather quirky adventure that looks towards the Groundhog Day for inspiration. I&aci...[Read More]

This War Of Mine Preview    Without trying to state the obvious, wars are terrible things. Fighting, killing, soldier against soldier. Sometimes entire nations are against each other, while civil wars make countries tear themselves apart. Many games refuse to acknowledge the grittier side of war, when it isn’t all about bursting into houses guns a blazing, shooting bad people for “democr...[Read More]

Warmachine Tactics Preview    Warmachine Tactics is Privateer Press’s foray into electronic gaming. They have taken one of Privateer Press’s most popular tabletop games, and translated the core gameplay on to PC with a fair amount of success. By translating core gameplay I don’t mean bringing the tabletop game in its exact form onto a virtual board. There are simply a different set of...[Read More]

Beyond Flesh and Blood Preview   While at EGX I spent some time with the guys from Pixel Bomb, playing their upcoming title Beyond Flesh And Blood. I am very interested in this title for a number of reasons, one of which is the setting, Manchester.Beyond Flesh And Blood is set over 200 years into the future, where most of mankind is living on a station, called The Tree Of Life, orbiting the p...[Read More]

Gang Beasts Preview      Name one thing the current PC gaming scene is sorely missing at this time and age. I won’t take any guesses because I’m slightly fearful of what you might have noted – instead, let me tell you what Gang Beasts is all about: hot seat multiplayer. Imagine WWE, but where all actors are so drunk that they can barely stand on their two shuddering legs. Instead of ...[Read More]

Son of Nor Preview    Terraforming. The art or act of shaping the earth or ground at your feet. This hasn’t always gone hand in hand with gaming. There have definitely been exceptions: Minecraft and Terraria spring to mind, since they technically allow you to freely break and re-arrange the ground. The only problem is that these games use a grid-like system, restricting terraforming to b...[Read More]

Bomb Preview   Dog-fighting games aren’t all that common. They never really were or have been either. Sure, there are flight simulators and modern jet fighting games (like the H.A.W.X. series) but not many with the old rickety planes from the WW2 era. The Industry as a whole seems to be geared towards modern warfare, with fancy auto locking missiles and new fangled gadgets. Then there’s ga...[Read More]

Vector Thrust Preview    Flying is one of those abilities none of us would actually mind having. Well, except for those who suffer from altitude sickness, I guess. Good thing is – planes exist, and stuff, so we can all just go ahead and get a pilot’s license! Oh, wait. No. No we can’t. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why flight simulators exist. To provide us shambling humans a fracti...[Read More]
