Metroid Dread Samus Aran 583 Figma Review



It felt inevitable that a Figma would appear for Samus in her Dread suit - and so it has! It took a while, preorders opened at around November 2022 and it was released almost a year later.
Here's a quick review with our thoughts.

Sega Megadrive Mini Review


The release of retro, mini consoles continues. This is probably the best one yet!

Resident Evil 2 Review


Resident Evil 2 is a complete remake of the original game in Capcom's RE Engine - the one which powers Resident Evil VII. Over 20 years have passed since the release of the original RE2, making it a good time for both longtime fans and newcomers to the game.

Max Factory Metroid: Other M: Samus Aran Figma Action Figure Zero Suit Review

A few years back we looked at the Varia Suit Samus Figma, it was in fact one of the first reviews on this blog. I loved it. Now after some time, we get the Zero Suit version. Let's take a look.

Ubermosh Review


Ubermosh is like a drug - you'll always be chasing a better high (score). The pumping soundtrack serves to put you in a trance, to better slay all before you. It's a fantastic way to get a quick and satisfying rush. Read more and check our gameplay video below.

The Vanishing of Ethan Carter (Redux) Review


The Vanishing of Ethan Carter is an adventure game that has you taking on the role of detective Paul Prospero, who is searching for a missing child - Ethan Carter.
The game is set in the beautiful (and largely abandoned) Red Creek Valley. It's a good thing that the game looks gorgeous because you will be walking around a lot. I didn't find this boring though. Exploring the world was soothing and awe inspiring but there was always a sense of something sinister lurking ahead.

Bloodrayne Betrayal Review


Bloodrayne Betrayal is an excellent game and is far better than the Steam and critic reviews suggest.

1/7 Sallya Sarya Tharja Fire Emblem Awakening Good Smile PVC Figurine Review


Here's Sallya/Sarya/Tharja or however you want to spell it, from Fire Emblem Awakening (Kakusei). It's a funny thing with Japanese names, nobody agrees on how to localise the spelling in a manner that satisfies everyone. Enough boring talk! We have an alluring dark mage to look at!

Mai Shiranui King of Fighters Skytube Black 1/6 Figurine Review


It's been a few years since we've seen a good Mai Shiranui figurine. The release of the excellent King of Fighters XIII a couple years back makes this an excellent time for this to be rectified.

Psycho Pass Review

Psycho Pass

The Last of Us Review


Gaming, from a technical standpoint, has evolved expectedly rapidly over the past few years. It's still startling to see the results of this progress, with games managing to create almost uncanny characters and environments. Sadly, creativity in gaming has not followed suit and indeed many agree that the reverse is true, with games using this technology to emulate Hollywood blockbusters along with all that is wrong with it. But, just like those blockbusters, loads of money is generated from these shallow and sequential franchises, giving little incentive for publishers to ask for anything more. Is it possible for us to have our cake and eat it? The Last of Us proves that it is.

Bioshock Infinite Review - I thought I hated this game!

BioShock Infinite is one of those games which does pretty much all of its storytelling right at the end.

Tomb Raider Review



Tomb Raider (2013) is the reboot to the long running and beloved franchise. It aims to present the defining events that shaped Lara into who she is. Can they pull it off and can they do it without
upsetting too many people?

Kampfer Anime Review

Kämpfer (German for "Fighter")
