When Compile Heart Got Serious - Mary Skelter 2 Review
Returning to regular programming, I have decided to cover a certain series, which also happens to be a personal favorite, but, I can already see you wondering, why am I covering the 2nd game in the series first? You see, I am going to cover this series, in the recommended play order, it isn’t too complex really, just play 2, then Nightmares (1), then Finale, the fact 2 has a remake of Mary Skelter Nightmares makes things far easier, and that’s the one I will be playing next, but I am getting...
A Niche Halo Clone Yet A Fun Game On It’s Own
The news of Halo finally coming to PlayStation made quite a stir, which reminded of this clone or some might say a total ripoff. N.O.V.A. Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance is a first person shooter developed by Gameloft. For those who are not familiar Gameloft is the mobile game subsidiary of Ubisoft (yeah I know yikes!). Primarily Gameloft developed and published the mobile “ports” of all well known Ubisoft titles such Rayman, Rainbow Six, Splinter Cell, Assassins Creed and so much more as well...
Need for Speed ProStreet - The Supposed Black Sheep of the Franchise
Back when I was a wee babby, I didn't have access to many games. If anything, I was surprised that I even had access to videogame consoles. Granted, most of them were gifts from people outside of my close relatives (meaning my dad, mum and sister). As a result, if I got a game and I ended up liking a lot, there's a big chance that I'd exploit the hell out of it. So, it was... 2007, I believe. I was allowed to get one PS2 game (for my birthday, most likely). Naturally, I had my eye con Grand...
MediEvil: A silly spook tale about honor, courage and chicken drumsticks
Gargoyle’s quest… Reviewed already Castlevania on GBA… Reviewed already too Yume Nikki… Also Man, I ran out of good material for the review section’s Halloween Special and is the great day already, man, if only I got a clue of what to upload... *Sees a Jack Skellington-disguised kid trick or treating in his window, after that he sees another one disguised as Artorias*… I got an idea… *A Jack-o-lantern sits in a desk next to a candy bowl, grey smoke and purple light comes out of it...
Clive Barker's Undying; Dark Fantasy Horror Mayhem
Halloween is upon us. The night where the spirits of the other side are ever so close to our own, their wavering, spectral forms drifting through the moonlight as they bleed into our world to bring us bad dreams, or something like that at least, it's a little unclear. This month has seen us tackle many forms of terror in these Halloween reviews, and by many I mean four games and like maybe two different forms of terror. We’ve tousled with some vampire brides in some really sheer dresses that...
Pokemon Crystal but open World ?! (Pokemon Crystal Clear review)
Pokemon has one of the biggest Romhack and Fan game scene, but when most people think about Pokemon Romhack people generally think of the GBA Romrack, while Romhacks based on the GBC games exist they are certainly less common than the GBA, today we will talk of one of them, Pokemon Crystal clear is a Romhack of Pokemon Crystal for the Gameboy colour, with the twist that is open world. The game starts with a character creation screen, of course it isn't as complex as modern day pokemon...
Japan Goes Supernatural - Paranormal Syndrome 2 Review
I am back with another sequel, this time as you can see, Paranormal Syndrome 2, a very impressive game in more ways than I initially expected. Paranormal Syndrome 2, was released in 2015, 4 years after the 1st game, by the time in which the RPG Maker Horror craze of the 10s was slowing down, mostly due to oversaturation of both games, and youtubers let’s playing the same games over and over (it is unreal how many lps of Ao Oni and Mad Father you could find at the time). Between Paranormal...
An Interesting Take On Folklore Horror - Paranormal Syndrome Review
I return, with yet another RPG Maker game, this time, for once, its one I have actually never played before, but, it has been on my backlog for ages, so, its about time I gave it a go. Paranormal Syndrome, was released in 2011, yet another one of the RPG Maker Horror craze of the 10s, made in RPG Maker 2000… Even though better versions of the engine already existed at the time, still, popularity wise, wasn’t as big as its contemporaries, but it did decently in Japan, with the dev still...
Highest way to Hell
Diablo II and it's expansion Lord of Destruction is the undisputed cream of the crop as far as hack and slash looters go. Apart from aged CGI cut scenes the game remains perfect to this date. There is even a remaster that touches the game up to modern graphical standards not that it needs it. The visuals of the original is stunning and macabre. The soundtrack drenched with melancholy is sure to stir dread in your soul as you embark on your journey against the Prime Evils (Mephisto, Diablo...
