Author: Aaron Potter

When Aaron isn't busting out his parents' old Sega Megadrive and playing way too much Mortal Kombat II in an attempt to re-live the classic days, he usually spends his days up to his neck podcasting about movies, covering events and of course writing about video games. Primed to take on anyone who critiques the genius of 2005's Timesplitters: Future Perfect, Aaron is the epitome of the term "Pop Culture Nerd" with the collection of comics, games and statues to prove it.
  • Utawarerumono: Mask of Deception Review

    If there’s one thing you can say about Atlus, it’s that the publisher will almost certainly continue to defy all expectations, transporting many beloved Japanese games to a Western audience, no matter how niche or unorthodox.

  • How The Japanese are Clawing Back the Game Development Crown in 2017

    If you were to glance your eyes over a list of games you’ve played so far this year, it’s highly likely that you’d recognise a theme: the majority of them were made in Japan. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Resident Evil VII, NieR: Automata – the list goes on. For the longest time, there…

  • Blue-Collar Astronaut Review

    The one word I kept coming back to each time I willingly chose to return to the experience Blue-Collar Astronaut provided me was “Why?”. More specifically: “Why was I playing a game in 2017 that doesn’t have an ounce of identity?”, “Why am I continually fighting with my ship’s handling controls to make even the…

  • Remembering Insomniac’s Resistance Trilogy

    “Halo killer” was a common term during the unparalleled heights of the previous generation’s console wars. Let’s be honest though, looking back now it was all just a little bit silly. Released by developer Insomniac as a PS3 launch title back in 2006, Resistance: Fall of Man saw the launch of the series, with many Halo naysayers…
