Being a massive Doctor Who fan, I was really looking forward to the 60th Anniversary specials. The Star Beast on Saturday night did not disappoint. David Tennant and Catherine Tate were always a favourite of mine, and they had lost none of their chemistry. Rose Noble is a great new addition to the series, and […]

Date:
CowBoys vs Vampires. What’s not to love? Forget Daniel Craig and Cowboys Vs Aliens, with Evil West, Flying Wild Hog has brought us Electro-Steampunk Cowboys taking on Vampires in this old school third person shooter. It’s colourful, it’s loud, it’s cheesy… It’s like being back in the old PS2 days. If ‘splodey cartoon gore is […]

Staying in a replica of H.H. Holmes Murder Hotel. What could go wrong… Supermassive Games is one of my favourite studios. Since Until Dawn back in 2015 I’ve bought all their games in the Dark Pictures Anthology upon release, so it’s only natural I picked up The Devil in Me on release day. I really […]
