When Batman Arkham Asylum came out in 2009, it blew me away. Admittedly I had very low hopes for the game. The fact that it fulfilled every bat-fuelled fantasy I had as a kid made it one of the best games I have ever played period. However, when details about the sequel started to leak [...]

Ninjas. I’m just going to let that word hang for moment. As a kid… alright dammit I admit, even as an adult, I can’t think of anything cooler. Except maybe cyber ninjas. But I digress. Total War: Shogun 2, makes it possible to recruit and command an ARMY of ninjas. That’s like, a whole army [...]

(This is a re-write of the Crysis 2 review which was supposed to be published on the 27th of April but ended up getting lost in internet limbo. The game since then has been updated to v 1.8 which brings a lot of tweaks to the multiplayer side of things. As such, my criticisms of [...]

Well hello world! I should explain why I haven’t been seen here for a bit. There is no way of saying it without sounding lame but, for what it’s worth, here it is: I had way too much happening at once. The last 60 days have been beyond hectic. And a little unfortunate as well. [...]

I remember going on an awkward date once. It was with a lovely young lady I had known for a while and who I thought, knew me pretty well. But on that particular day, everything went wrong from the moment we said hello. I was dressed the way I always did when I was 18 [...]

I recently read an article by one of my favorite games journalists. Someone whose writing I have been following for around a decade. Tom Francis, who writes for PC Gamer, has always struck me as the kind of person that seems to eloquently (and often hilariously) verbalize exactly how I feel about games and the [...]

Day three begins with me making some drastic changes. Every forum I read over the course of the weekend had confirmed that my character build was flawed from the very beginning. A sorcery- melee build will always be an uphill battle. I could focus on damage dealing and be fine in PvE but with power [...]

Compared to day 1, the next couple of days were a mixed bag. For starters, I had to look at this as I tried to log in: In a way its good news, people are obviously playing the game and there should be no dearth of players to team up with. A healthy player base [...]

When DC Universe Online was first announced my first thoughts were anything but positive. The very idea of being a spandex wearing peon grinding through dull urban environments was enough to make me gag. Besides, I don’t really like MMOs to begin with. With the sole exception of Guild Wars, my attempts at trying to [...]

2010 was a great year for the PC. We were treated to some truly splendid titles and now that 2011 is finally here, I can give some thought to what I think was the year’s best. It goes without saying that this post will be a little redundant for those of you that have been [...]
