The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom was like a breath of fresh air, offering an experience that somehow goes beyond what its predecessor, Breath of the Wild, delivered. Not only revisiting the charm and vastness of Hyrule but enhances every aspect, making the familiar feel new and fresh. That first skydive from the […]
My love for Pokemon is years-long and runs deep. I’ve played everything from Blue, onwards (with exceptions of non-base games like Ultra Moon and Ultra Sun). I haven’t finished them all, mind. Pokemon Black was just enough to bore me to tears, and I’ve not finished Apha Sapphire. However, I did finish the original Ruby, […]
Where on earth do you draw a line under Super Smash Bros. games, to be able to confidently give them a review? A seemingly endless game, packed-full with fun, collectibles, game modes and spirits. Worse still, how do you review a game in a series as iconic as Super Smash Bros? Easy, really. All Smash […]
The Legend of Zelda has been at the centre of my gaming life for as long as I can remember. When I first got my Gameboy, the only game I wanted was The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening. I had no idea what it was, I just thought the box looked amazing. Bearing in mind […]
Sometimes we have an experience with something that ends up either being so profound, or perhaps exceptional, that we struggle to leave that world. I’ve had it happen with books, films, TV series and of course games. What’s the problem? As I mentioned before, sometimes, you just give up and get on with your […]
After falling back in love with Lylat Wars (Star Fox 64) on my 3DS, it seemed like the perfect time to jump into Star Fox Zero on the Wii U, which I was gifted a few months ago. Does it stack up? How does a modern Star Fox game look? Is it worth a go? […]
My first proper console was the Nintendo 64, and one of the many fond memories I have of it, is playing Lylat Wars (the European name for Star Fox 64). I’m about to embark upon the Wii U Star Fox Zero, but having been away recently, I jumped back into games in my 3DS collection, […]
Yesterday, I decided I’d had enough of the mobile games I’ve been playing (Pokemon Go, Boom Beach and Fallout Shelter), and wondered if there was anything new worth trying. Then, as if there were some divine intervention at work, my phone pinged up a notification, letting me know the Animal Crossing Pocket Camp is now […]
Who knew that a hack-and-slash style “Warriors” game could be so much fun?! Honestly, I didn’t have high expectations for this game, at all. I’ve played a couple of titles, a little bit, from the “warriors” games, and never really thought much of them. I enjoy the power trip of taking out swarm of enemy […]
Who knew that working out how to get a screenshot on a Wii U would take so much effort?! There’s no quick “snap” button or combination of buttons, to my knowledge, and there were no helpful hints on how to do so that were immediately apparent, anyway. So it took me a few minutes of […]
