I reviewed Dynasty Warriors 3 Remastered. Despite the loss of a crucial feature, the game still manages to be a great time. I'm glad, since DW3 means so much to me. Dynasty Warriors 3: Complete Edition Remastered - New Bu (Review) (The Jimquisition)

I reviewed Silent Hill: Townfall. At times it's utterly brilliant, at others it's creatively frustrating and bloody tedious. So much greatness, yet so many caveats. Silent Hill: Townfall - Staying Silent (Review) (The Jimquisition)

I reviewed Onimusha: Way of the Sword. It's got some of the best sword fighting in the action genre, let down only by the surprising amount of recycling it does with its own material. On the whole though? Great game. Onimusha: Way Of The Sword - Oni The Best (Review) (The Jimquisition)

Marvel's Wolverine came out and it wasn't very good. It's the last thing Sony needs right now, but in fairness, Sony was the last thing Wolverine needed too. Sony's Wolverine (YouTube)

This episode is really funny. The jokes just don’t stop!

I reviewed Marvel's Wolverine, a game that's just rather mediocre and offers one of the most rubbish versions of Logan ever witnessed. Marvel's Wolverine - Old Bland Logan (Review) (The Jimquisition)

I reviewed Serious Sam: Shatterverse. It's stunning in its complete lack of ability to justify itself. A wasted opportunity and the most tenuous use of the "roguelite" label I've ever seen. Serious Sam: Shatterverse - Dimensional Disappointment (Review) (The Jimquisition)

I reviewed Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2. It's more fun-if-janky horde shooting with a big expansion made to player options and character building. It's pretty good. Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 - Resupply Or Die, Folks (Review) (The Jimquisition)

I reviewed the bizarrely rereleased Lord of the Rings: War in the North. A rubbish game back in its day, this pointless waste of time is even worse now. The Lord of the Rings: War in the North Legacy Edition - Piddle Earth (Review) (The Jimquisition)

Dead Island lurched so Dying Light could parkour. While history has placed it in the shadow of its successor series, Dead Island has more going for it than many might assume. It's a game with genuinely dark horror elements, a great central premise, and some incredibly underrated sound design... even

Hello you court-appointed parsnips! First of all, I’d like to apologize for the lack of material, be it video or writing.

I reviewed Splatoon Raiders. It can be fun and there are some great systems, but it has some of the worst level design I've seen in years. Splatoon Raiders - Damp Squid (Review) (The Jimquisition)

I reviewed The Adventures of Elliot, a game that asks a simple question - can voice acting ruin a videogame? It's certainly determined to answer in the affirmative. The Adventures Of Elliot: The Millennium Tales - Shut Up, Shut Up, Shut Up! (Review) (The Jimquisition)

I reviewed Slots & Daggers, a super cute roguelite that fuels its turn-based fights with a slot machine. It's pretty great! Slots & Daggers - Casino Battle Royale (Review) (The Jimquisition)

I reviewed 007: First Light! A delightful spy thriller with a very relevant story, it's an impressive spy romp from a studio that's perfect for the job. I gave it more than 7/10, header title aside. 007: First Light - 007 Out Of Ten (Review) (The Jimquisition)

They'll tell you "life's not fair" but they're actually lying to you. Life's neither fair nor unfair, it merely exists in unfair systems designed by unfair people. It's okay to say something isn't fair, and it's more than valid to tell game publishers and AI-humping investors that they have no moral

I reviewed Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream, a game I've used to make myself laugh way more than I should. While it offers more than the last one, it does have a shelf life that you'll blitz through unless playing very casually. You can draw a lot of cocks though. Tomodachi Life: Living The Dream -

Alien: Rogue Incursion: Evolved Edition. A reworked version of a VR game, it's a boring mess that stacks up against Colonial Marines and manages to come out the loser. A real shame. Alien: Rogue Incursion: Part One: Evolved Edition - Attack Of The Colons (Review) (The Jimquisition)
