Shaun Munro reviews Mario Tennis Aces… Mario Tennis Aces will undoubtedly be the introduction to the Mario Tennis franchise for many Nintendo Switch owners – this reviewer included – and though far from an unqualified success, it nevertheless proves itself a surprisingly nuanced and less-surprisingly addictive sports title overflowing with personality. This certainly isn’t a tennis […]
Video Game Review – Unravel Two
Shaun Munro reviews Unravel Two… Less than 24 hours before I put fingers to keyboard to write this review, the world had no idea that Unravel Two even existed, let alone that it was finished and would be instantly released during EA’s 2018 E3 conference. Don’t let the lack of hype fool you, though; this sequel to […]
Video Game Review – Onrush
Shaun Munro reviews Onrush… With the PS4 suffering through a dearth of quality racing titles for casual gamers, Onrush really couldn’t arrive at a better time. Developed largely by ex-Evolution Studios (Motorstorm, Driveclub) employees, this nifty new car combat offering combines the scuzzy energy of their former title and the neat polish of the latter to deliver […]
Video Game Review – Immortal Redneck
Shaun Munro reviews Immortal Redneck… Though it doesn’t reinvent the wheel, this kooky collision of classic FPS mayhem and roguelite survival proves just nimble enough to largely please fans of both. While it lacks a distinct sense of personality, Immortal Redneck nevertheless serves up breezy shooting and a fiendishly addictive progression system, both of which make […]
Video Game Review – Laser League
Shaun Munro reviews Laser League… While calling any multiplayer sports title “the next Rocket League” is clearly intended as a term of endearment by fans and critics alike, it can have the unfortunate consequence of dooming a game to fall short of lofty, misplaced expectations (case in point, last year’s solid-but-already-forgotten Disc Jam). Though Laser League perhaps invites […]

Video Game Review – God of War
Shaun Munro reviews God of War… Some eight years removed from the release of the last core God of War game, the blood-soaked hack n’ slash franchise has been effectively rejuvenated by series veteran Cory Barlog with this staggeringly creative – if decidedly tamer – soft-reboot. Though perhaps not quite the radical, Resident Evil 4-esque reinvention some […]
Video Game Review – Yakuza 6: The Song of Life
Shaun Munro reviews Yakuza 6: The Song of Life… The Yakuza series won itself a whole new Western fanbase last year with the release of the meteorically successful Yakuza 0, and last summer’s remake of the original game, Yakuza Kiwami, cemented the franchise’s newfound popularity in a void still awaiting the next Shenmue game. While this latest instalment is as […]
