Yoku’s Island Express (Review). Team 17’s Newest Game with a Novel Idea.

Beast June 1, 2018

31 0

There are not a whole lot of games that can credibly claim to be novel ideas. Of course, novelty alone does not guarantee that the concept is a good one. That is why I was pleasantly surprised when I first booted up Team 17’s newest game, Yoku’s Island Express. Team 17 is most closely associated […]

Whether you’re a newbie Fortnite player jumping onto the survival shooter trend or a confused, out-of-touch parent wondering what that $9.99 “Epic Games” charge on your credit card is, Fortnite’s battle pass is a thing worth knowing about. First things first: Fortnite is a free-to-play video game for PC, Xbox, PS4 and iOS in which the last player standing wins. Think Hunger […]

The Review for Call of Duty: WWII is in. Check it here! Hardcore Gamer is putting the Germans to the test.

Call of Duty is proof that there can be too much of a good thing. After a spectacular four year run, gamers were tiring of the WWII setting of the series and embraced the announcement of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare with open arms. Modern Warfare was a massive hit that made Call of Duty a worldwide name, […]

Review: Road Redemption. Hell Yes! This is the Road Rash Successor you’ve been waiting for!

If you’re a thirty-something year old gamer like myself, it’s likely that you have fond memories of a game series called Road Rash. Developed and published by Electronic Arts from 1991 through to 2000 (apart from 1999’s Road Rash 64 which was developed and published by THQ), the Road Rash series provided point-to-point motorcycle races with a difference; you could […]

Cuphead (Review) only for Xbox One and PC: A Classic Run and Gun Action Game. An Artistic Refreshment for the Gaming Industry: inspired by Cartoons of the 1930s with a focus on Boss Battles!

Beast October 2, 2017

Imagine an arcade game that has parallels to the 1928 cartoon, Steamboat Willie or the 1933 film Popeye the Sailor and this Xbox One title not only pays homage to this area but creates a very artistic and enjoyable side-scrolling shooter experience. Unlike games of today which are totally rendered by computers, Cuphead uses hand painted backdrops and animation […]

Check here the Review of the Nintendo Classic Mini: SNES . Fantastic line up of games including Star Fox 2!

While Nintendo are widely known for their child-friendly, brightly coloured range of games and characters, as an adult fan the company is a little more fickle. An amazing new Mario Kart here, a dreadful phone app for voice chat there, there simply isn’t any consistency to what can only be called “The Nintendo Way”. So the release […]

NBA 2K18 (Review) Once again king of the court!

Beast September 22, 2017

Sports games have long been maligned for their tendency to rely upon the mechanics and modes of the previous entries, while still charging a full price each year for what some consider to just be a mere roster and slight graphical update. Yet, what happens when the sport that the title is mirroring is itself […]

Divinity: Original Sin II (Review PC) One of the best RPGs ever created.

Beast September 19, 2017

Divinity might not be the biggest name in the gaming world, but when the sequel to the critically acclaimed Divinity: Original Sin was announced on Kickstarter, it met its funding goal in under twelve hours and eventually went on to vastly exceed it. One can only imagine the reaction Larian Studios had to this quick and enthusiastic […]

Observer (Review) Bloober Team’s latest horror game.

Observer is the name of a little known unreleased prequel track to Snow’s ’90s hit, Informer. >Observer_ on the other hand, is Bloober Team’s latest horror game. First of all, see that extraneous punctuation? We’re going to ignore that and call the game Observer for the rest of the review. Try not to confuse it with reggae. Bloober Team previously created […]

Sonic Mania (Review). Sequal we've been waiting for a damn 23 years!

In 2014, we were introduced to Shovel Knight. Yacht Club’s ode to the eight-bit days of Mega Man and the like ended up being an absolutely superb platformer with a terrific cast and rock-solid gameplay that had just the right level of difficulty. It perfectly captured the feeling of older titles before it, and basically winded up […]
