Review Pneuma: Breath of Life (PS4)
A breath of fresh air?
In Pneuma: Breath of Life, you are a god. Not a deity, not a Kanye West-style god - you're the creator of the universe, omnipresent and omnipotent in all your glory. Yet for some reason, you don't have access to all of these powers; you merely walk around jaw-droppingly rendered Roman-style chambers and halls, pulling levers,...

Manga madness, millionaire heroes, feudal Japan, and lots of guns
Wow, and we thought that May was a weak month. To be fair, the rules of Game of the Month state that we can't include re-releases of any kind that have appeared on a PlayStation console in the past, so the likes of the great Devil May Cry 4: Special Edition missed out on a chance at...

Keep franchises, those you love, close to you
Shenmue III's crowd funding campaign has been a little strange.
