Scott Watson reviews Strike Vector EX… Oh this is glorious… this is war, this is balls to the wall air combat dog-fighting, this is a first person shooter strapped into mech-inspired craft. This is the free-flying combat joy of Strike Vector EX and I love it! For a long time I’ve been crying out for a dog-fighting game […]
Video Game Review – Dino Dini’s Kick Off Revival
Scott Watson reviews Dino Dini’s Kick Off Revival… Nostalgia – a wistful desire to return in thought or in fact to a former time in one’s life, to one’s home or homeland, or to one’s family and friends; a sentimental yearning for the happiness of a former place or time. When Dino Dini’s Kick Off […]
Report – Play Expo at Braehead Arena Glasgow
Scott Watson reports from the Play Expo at Braehead Arena Glasgow… Replay Events have been running the Play Expo series of gaming festivals across the UK for a number of years now, but this was their first visit to Glasgow with the event. It felt very much like they were finding their feet with it as well on […]
Video Game Review – TurnOn
Scott Watson reviews TurnOn… Have you ever wondered what life would be like without electricity and light? Simple things we take for granted such as me typing this review on a laptop persistently connected to the internet, or my son asking if wifi is available wherever we go, would be completely lost. These are some of […]
Video Game Review – Rocketbirds 2: Evolution
Scott Watson reviews Rocketbirds 2: Evolution… Putzki is dead. Or is he? Hardboiled thought he had nailed the evil megalomaniacal despot at the end of the first Rocketbirds. It seems though that psychotic killer owls from outer space had other plans and look to have brought Putzki back from the dead to once again take over […]
Video Game Review – Planar Conquest
Scott Watson reviews Planar Conquest… Planar Conquest is definitely one for the purists of this genre. I’ll get that one out there right now. This turn-based fantasy strategy apparently let’s you “eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate” it announces from its site. Trouble is, before you’ve even started the game you feel weighed down by the […]
Video Game Review – Wondershot
Scott Watson reviews Wondershot… Wondershot takes me back. It takes me back to Friday nights with my mates, a PlayStation, a multi-tap, some beers and a ton of fun. The fact that it draws to mind these nights of local co-op fun brings a smile to my face. It plays on my nostalgia. It reminds […]
Video Game Review – NOT A HERO
Scott Watson reviews NOT A HERO… BunnyLord wants to be Mayor. He wants to be mayor so badly that he’s traveled back in time from 2048 to enable him to save the world from absolute obliteration and alien invasion. The only problem is, in order to convince the populace he should be elected he has […]
Video Game Review – Star Wars Pinball: The Force Awakens
Scott Watson reviews Star Wars Pinball: The Force Awakens… You’ve all seen that new Star Wars movie right? It feels like everyone on the planet has or almost everyone has. I certainly have, twice so far. So, with great vigor and much enthusiasm, I attacked Zen Studios release of two new virtual pinball tables in […]
Video Game Review – The Escapists
Scott Watson reviews The Escapists… The start of 2016 hasn’t been particularly pleasant for me. Banged up for a crime I’m sure I didn’t commit, I’ve been stuck in a persistent routine of waking up for daily roll call, sharing my meals with some Grade A troublemakers, wandering around the grounds of the prison without […]
