Scott Watson reviews Sniper Elite 4: Deathstorm Part 2: Infiltration… Hats off to Rebellion, they’ve done a damn fine job with keeping those of us in need of our Sniper Elite fix entertained. The drip feed of season pass DLC and additional free content in the way of maps, modes, weapons and skins has been pretty […]
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 […]
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 – 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 – 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 […]

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 – Urban Trial Playground
Scott Watson reviews Urban Trial Playground on Nintendo Switch… They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and with Urban Trial Playground, Tate Multimedia nods heavily towards Red Lynx’ Trials series in so many ways it’s a surprise they’ve not called for their IP back! If you’ve played Trials, or any of Tate Multimedia’s […]
Video Game Review – Shadow of the Colossus
Scott Watson reviews Shadow of the Colossus… It’s been over 12 years since Fumito Ueda first brought his masterpiece to life on the PS2. That’s a long time in gaming, and with it nostalgia can at times be a cruel mistress. Thankfully, and in no small part once again to the talented team at Bluepoint […]
