    I still think that Sorceress character is embarrassingly ridiculous, but I’m sure having a good time playing this on Vita. I really do love the art style – as I do with all Vanillaware games – and it just feels like the perfect thing to be playing on a portable. I’ve played a couple of…

    First, what I didn’t like. I still think Scarlett Johansson is just horrible as Black Window, she just couldn’t be less convincing as a kick-ass international superspy. And this only affects French speakers, but it’s so annoying to see someone who is supposed to be French talking with a Quebec accent. OK, other than that? I…

    This was really great. Unlike the last Appleseed movie, this one goes for a super realistic CG look, and the visuals are just fantastic. I sure love me some tech-heavy sci-fi, and you get plenty here, with great looking mech/android designs, and well done action sequences. It’s a nice little story too, and I hope…

    Unlike Death on the Nile, I do have memories of watching this when it came out in the 80s – maybe even at the cinema, with my parents – and although I didn’t remember how it ended exactly, I did recall bits. What I like about going back and watching these movies from the 70s…

    This is a new free-to-play MOBA that is available only on iPad, and having gone through the tutorial and played a few rounds with bots, I’m quite liking it so far. I do like playing MOBAs, and the reason I don’t play DOTA 2 or League of Legends is mostly because they don’t run great…

    I’ve enjoyed the Duels of the Planeswalkers games, and was looking forward to the new edition, but so far I’m just not really feeling it. I’ve been playing Magic on and off pretty much since the start, and do still play the physical game with friends. What I liked about the Duels games was the slick…

    This is so the shooter for me. As I’ve said many times, I’m not that into shooters anymore, but Destiny that has really sucked me in. It starts with the aesthetics of the world and tech, which I really love, but then continues with the fun gameplay and feel of the weapons – people keep saying…

    What to say about this documentary. As someone who loves games and grew up with them, I did have fun watching this, reminiscing on things, but it doesn’t really come off as anything else than a celebration of games, there’s no drama or interesting storyline. Even the history lesson is pretty brief, and although I…

    As much as I wanted to play this when it came out – I do consider myself a fan of the series – I absolutely refused to buy it because I didn’t want to support the pricing scheme. Charging $30 for this would indicate that you are getting half of what you would get from…

    I love Corto Maltese, and although I do love the books, I also quite like the animated films that have been done (five I think), and re-watching them during the summer always seems appropriate. I started off with La cour secrète des Arcanes, and just loved it so much. The quality of the animation is…
