Comic Book Review – Excellence #1

May 9, 2019 by Sam Thorne

Sam Thorne reviews Excellence #1… Magic has always had an odd place in the pantheon of comic book tropes. In regards to comics, most of us probably think of brand name magicians such as Dr. Strange, Zatanna or Dr. Fate, all of which are characters who typically fade into the background when placed near their […]

Comic Book Review – Doctor Who: The Thirteenth Doctor Vol. 1

April 29, 2019 by Sam Thorne

Sam Thorne reviews Doctor Who: The Thirteenth Doctor Volume 1… I think it’s fair to say in retrospect that the first season of Jody Whittaker’s tenure as Doctor Who was somewhat of a mixed bag. More than anything else, it seemed that there were too many companions and not enough screentime meaning that every character, […]

Comic Book Review – Bloodshot Special FCBD 2019

April 28, 2019 by Sam Thorne

Sam Thorne reviews Bloodshot Special FCBD 2019… Free Comic Book Day is an absolutely great way to advertise a new series, particularly when that series has a related movie coming out the year after starring Vin Diesel. The brooding man with the crimson patch is due to burst into cinemas in 2020, thus it’s not […]

First Impressions – Call of Duty: WWII Beta

August 28, 2017 by Sam Thorne

Sam Thorne with some first impressions of the Call of Duty: WWII beta… Call of Duty as a franchise has always performed and sold better when attached to military conflicts and situations relating to the world we inhabit, as opposed to the franchise’s more futuristic and improvised entries such as Call of Duty: Black Ops […]

Prey and the Decline of Linear Single-Player Experiences in Gaming

November 30, 2017 by Sam Thorne

Sam Thorne on the decline of linear single-player experiences in gaming… Prey is a great game, probably the best game this year that most people will never play. The first-person-shooter developed by Arkane Studios, published by Bethesda, should have been one of this year’s biggest titles, drawing heavily on critically acclaimed games such as Bioshock […]

Video Game Review – Monster Hunter: World

January 25, 2018 by Sam Thorne

Sam Thorne reviews Monster Hunter: World… Capcom have been in a state of flux these past few years, not really knowing what to do with their key franchises, despite the fact their games are generally good. Dead Rising 4 flopped horrifically after abandoning many of the main features that made the predecessors so appealing. Street […]

Thoughts and Opinions on Nintendo’s ‘Mini’ Direct Announcements

January 11, 2018 by Sam Thorne

Sam Thorne on Nintendo’s ‘Mini’ Direct announcements… Nintendo have certainly upped their marketing & PR game in recent months (and years), playing up to several rumours since the turn of the new year regarding a Nintendo Direct in January. As you probably know, the Nintendo Switch is selling like hot cakes, but it does need […]

Video Game Review – Blossom Tales on Nintendo Switch

December 21, 2017 by Sam Thorne

Sam Thorne reviews Blossom Tales… One reason for the Nintendo Switch’s ‘indie gold rush’ period, as many people have coined it, is due to the sheer lack of storefront curation or quality vetting on other digital marketplaces like Steam. Every indie game coming to the Switch seems to be of reasonable quality – at least […]

Video Game Review – Yooka-Laylee on Nintendo Switch

December 14, 2017 by Sam Thorne

Sam Thorne reviews Yooka-Laylee… You’ve got to feel a little bad for Playtonic games. The studio formed from several former key players at Rare during their golden years launched an insanely successful kickstarter campaign, to fund a spiritual successor to Banjo Kazooie, but only received lukewarm praise at best. To make matters worse, they missed […]

Video Game Review – Resident Evil: Revelations HD

September 1, 2017 by Sam Thorne

Sam Thorne reviews Resident Evil: Revelations HD… Since Capcom first struck gold in the PSX era with the original Resident Evil trilogy, the series has suffered an extensive, ongoing identity crisis. Resident Evil 4’s critical acclaim and influence caused the series to head further in that new direction, and has nervously skirted the border between […]
