Video Game Review – Elite: Dangerous

by

Martin Carr reviews Elite: Dangerous… Elite: Dangerous should come with a health warning. This game is not designed for the novice. Ported over from PC with no graphical compromise and minimal lag, Frontier has offered up an open world experience Xbox One style. That it comes with a list of YouTube based training tutorials, which […]

Video Game Review – Prison Architect

by

Villordsutch reviews Prison Architect… Prison Architect is a funny game. I’d say funny little game, but it isn’t that.  I first encountered it around three ago at my first PLAY Expo and I can honestly say, after walking around the stand a few times rather confused, I thought this was an educational game, which involved […]

Video Game Review – PES 2016

by

Andy Naylor reviews PES 2016… Last year’s PES [read our review here] was promising. It showed some footballing intuition, it felt better than any PS3/360 incarnation ever did.

Villordsutch interviews Philip Muwanga, Project Lead on Beyond Flesh and Blood… The Beyond Flesh and Blood stand at PLAY Expo is extremely well supported and is teaming with people trying to get a seat or interested parties trying to grab a minute with any of the Orange-Shirted, Pixelbomb Games people around the monitors, lucky for me […]

Video Game Review – Ghost Blade

by

Ben Rayner reviews Ghost Blade… The SEGA Dreamcast was easily one of the greatest home consoles ever to grace our living rooms. I’ve never shied away from my love of the original online gaming console but it’s not simply just my opinion, it’s also a widely regarded fact that has kept fans amassing huge collections […]

Villordsutch reports from PLAY Expo at EventCity in Manchester… PLAY Expo, at EventCity in Manchester this year has to be possibly one of the best events Replay Events have produced to date.  From a visitors perspective this event is going to be a very difficult couple of days to top.  Everything was catered for whatever your gaming […]
