The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt release date and system requirements

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt launches for Spring 2015 and gamers looking forward to this third instalment of the Polish developed RPG are very excited about once again filling the boots of the white-haired hero as they run about the land based on the series of fantasy novels written by Andrej Sapkowski.

Darksiders 2 review

It must be tough being Death. Everyone seems to be a bit scared of you and it must be oh so lonely. Even more so now that War has been taken away by the Council for his ‘crime’ of causing Armageddon and since then there’s been no-one left to reap, so it’s up to you to go and get him back. I know it all sounds a bit grim but actually Darksiders II is a very fluid action adventure game with more role-playing elements than the first game and some really creative fantasy worlds and creatures to shove the sharp...

The Baconing

The Baconing review

The Baconing is the third adventure for DeathSpank; more commonly known as the ‘hero to the downtrodden’. Now it’s not necessary to have played the previous two games in the series but the storyline and humour will make a little more sense if you have. DeathSpank himself is a strange character if ever there was one. He features the strength and brutality of Marcus Fenix, combined with the bravado and stupidity of Zapp Brannigan (Futurama). The game is set in a medieval world with a futuristic twist. One moment you can be battling orcs and dragons with a trusty blade,...
