Calturin is a hard game to pigeonhole. Coming from a developer by the name of Lasse Zacho Malver, it promotes itself as “a Bullet Hell Boss Rush” game.

It’s been a long time since The Wolf Among Us 2 was revealed (again) at The Game Awards 2019, but we’ll finally get to see the game in action in a behind-the-scenes stream this week.

Death’s Door is a great little game. I’ve been meaning to play it properly for a while, ever since I was told that you can slice signposts in half and then when you try and read it there’s only half of the text left. And so what better game, I thought, to test out the

I have a theory that a lot of games try too hard. Crackdown is not one of those games. Crackdown knows that it’s ridiculous. It has a story that wouldn’t look out of place in a ’80s action film starring Arnold Schwarzenegger. You’re a biologically-enhanced agent and, eh, I don’t know… There are some bad

With the recent announcement that Rockstar Games is developing GTA 6, some are questioning the validity of the rumored Bully 2 project. However, an industry insider has stated that the unannounced Bully project is still very much active, despite the fact that Rockstar is now working on three major triple-A titles at once. That being
Sifu is utterly uncompromising in its design, and that’s a sword that cuts both ways. It’s brutal learning curve and unique structure that demands you beat it in just one lifetime both loom as great barriers to overcome, but on the other side them is one of the best modern action games around.
