There's a lot I like about this game, and I am glad AA games are still being made, but sadly it's just a bit average

Carlton is truly a pathetic and embarrassing football club. The longer they persist with Voss, the more irrelevant they'll become.

Always a blast recording these episodes, and getting to chat and learn about Absolum, one of the best games of last year, was great fun

Excited to get back on the horse and had a great chat with the Bang Bang Bang team for this. Content *should* start dropping tomorrow...

Bloody reviewers ruining games with their early access

Apparently Albo has paid us to hate on Korean games

The comments section is such a funny read when gamers aren't happy with a review score

Crimson Desert's open-world is beautiful and full of content, but its gameplay loop lacks the fun factor

Key Fairy’s striking hand-drawn visuals, quirky score, and tight, satisfying gameplay create a truly unique experience

Our review: www.well-played.com.au/key-fairy-re...

Loved my time with Resident Evil Requiem. Grace is great, and Leon always delivers. It feels like Capcom has captured all the best bits of the recent games (mainline and remakes) to create an almost perfect action survival horror formula.

Sure he may have turned Xbox fortunes around after the Xbox One debacle, but both he and Bond have played a significant role in the state of the gaming industry today. A tenure remembered for consolidation, cancellations and mass layoffs.

Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection is swinging for the fences to prove that the 'Stories' sub-format of Monster Hunting is far from just a forgettable side experience
