Layers of Fear 2

I boarded the ship of Readers Gambit, to experience the hells and terrors of Layers of Fear 2, but in essence, what I really discovered was…. myself..

The Red Strings Club (PC)

 

The lads at Reader’s Gambit asked me to venture down to the Red Strings Club to see what lay there.

Black Mirror (Xbox One)

In a dark Scottish manor, dark things be brewing, so I takes me good self to the place, for the Reader’s Gambit laddies.

 

Raiders of the Broken Planet (Xbox One)

The Reader’s Gambit crew asked me to fly to the outer rim and help Raid some Broken Planets, or indeed, to play a broken game.

Addendum- This game has since been rebranded as: Spacelords

Why Dragon’s Age 2 is great, and you are probably wrong about it

A few weeks ago I took my final steps from the soaring stone city of Kirkwall. From the towering heights of the Gallows and Chantry, adorned with giant bronze figures and fluttering banners, to the dingiest depths and recesses of Darktown, where the thieves and cut-throats hid amidst the filth and refuse.
I’d spent a long time there; either 60 hours, or 6 years, depending how you looked at it. In that time it had become my home, a noose around my neck, a place of bitter sadness and even a few scant moments of jolly fun.

In short, I had completed the much maligned game that is Dragon Age 2. An experience that I enjoyed far more than I did the first game, and one that it seems the average Joe & Jane gamers disliked intently. On that account, I’d like to redress the balance a little by putting forth a few thoughts on why Dragon Age 2 is well worth your time, and in fact might actually be the best game idea that Bioware have ever conceived.

Gabriel Knight – Sins of the Father 2014 (PC)

One of the games that plagued me with it’s difficulty as a lad, remade in modern engine!

Is it good? Is it up to scratch? Is it still frustratingly difficult and often silly?
Find out in my SquareGo review, or read below the cut:

BioShock Infinite: Burial at Sea – Episode 2 (XBOX 360)

After the stomach-churning finale of Burial at Sea’s first episode, the story in now continuing through the eyes of Elizabeth, and with a new aim and a new debt to pay.

Trying to tie together all the story strands of the first and third BioShock games is a pretty tall order.

Will it live up to the promise? My review below, First published at SquareGo, will tell you.

Football Director

Dreaming of being the man in charge of your favourite Football team is surely one of the most widely enjoyed spheres of back seat management.

First Impressions: Ducky Fuzz

Simplicity is often thought to be the key in gaming. And what would be more simple and relaxing than enjoying the simple bob of the ocean, with something as innocuous as a rubber ducky?

BioShock Infinite: Burial At Sea – Episode 1 (XBOX 360)

Under the sea….. oh Under the Sea….

Darling it’s better,

down where it’s wetter,

Take it from me…..

Yes we’re going back under the briny with the new DLC for BioShock Infinite,

This time instead of the city in the clouds, the story is returning to the underwater landscape of Rapture.

Will it live up to the hype or drown in it’s own glory?
