Review Alan Wake 2: The Lake House (PS5) - Stellar DLC Paints a Path Forward for the Remedy Universe
The next step into the Remedy-verse
Remedy is the master of blending genre, tone, and style. It proved it with its seminal sequel Alan Wake 2 in 2023, and continued to prove it with its whimsical DLC Night Springs earlier this year. That streak continues with The Lake House, the conclusion to the world of Alan Wake (for now at least), which tightens...
Review Alan Wake 2: Night Springs (PS5) - A Short Yet Sweet Example of Remedy's Pedigree
Remedy has a (night) spring in its step
If you think Remedy Games is weird and wonderful, wait till you get a load of its episodic Alan Wake 2 DLC, Night Springs. After blowing us away with its horror sequel – one of the very few 10/10 games of 2023 for us – we’ve been dying for some more Remedy goodness. Now that it’s here though, is Night...
Mini Review Horizon Chase 2 (PS5) - Around the World in 80 Revs

A Remedy for success

We’re not quite sure where the page will take us, even though we have so much swirling around in our mind. That’s the effect of Alan Wake 2; a rip-roaring horror experience from Remedy...

Review Fall Guys - Battle Royale Mayhem At Its Very Best
The next Chicken Dinner
Fall Guys is one of those games that just clicks the moment you see it in action. Pitched as the Battle Royale genre meets Takeshi's Castle and Total Wipeout, you have to question how the concept hasn't already been capitalised on in the years since PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds and Fortnite took over the world. Luckily for...
Review Shadow Complex Remastered (PS4)
Press X to Jason
Today, independent and digital titles sit fairly comfortably alongside big budget games in terms of critical reception and public acceptance, but when Shadow Complex was released in 2009, it was customary to finish any sentence that started "It's great..." with a
Soccar
Rocket League is the most moreish multiplayer game since Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. Psyonix's vehicular soccer simulation adeptly illustrates the idea that simple concepts can succeed when expertly executed. And while it may have taken an entire generation for the seeds sewn by underrated PlayStation 3 exclusive Supersonic Acrobatic...
