It says a lot about the quality of Rocksteady’s previous Batman games that, despite not really being a fan of comics or superheroes, I consider them essential to any self-discerning gamer. Combining open world gameplay with stealth, a unique combat system and investigation elements, Arkham Asylum and Arkham City are exemplary examples of the action-adventure…
When it was originally released in August 2013, Payday 2 was highly praised by critics for its co-operative gameplay, combining tense stealth with heart-pounding first person shooting action.

Whilst the general perception of the Playstation Vita is that it’s a format on its death knell, in fact it still looks to have a healthy stream of titles trickling through thanks to support from the indie community and its fervent popularity from Japanese audiences. It’s rare for a week to go by without some…
With its retro style pixelated graphics and catchy yet repetitive music, Big Pixel Studio’s Mega Coin Squad wears its heart on its sleeve. This is an old school, back-to-basics platformer that places emphasis on addictive and challenging gameplay, and I’m happy to say it’s also a huge heap of fun. Single player mode is the…
You know how it is. Sometimes you get home from a hard day’s work and all you want to do is chill out, maybe plough some fields and sow some seeds. Well, thanks to the Farming Simulator games you can do it all – right from the comfort of your living room, without the smells…
There’s no doubt about it, the act of bullfighting is a very divisive subject, and quite rightly so. To some it’s nothing more than blood sport, a vile act that sees entertainment in the suffering of a living creature. To others, it’s a fine art; a deadly dance between a powerful beast and an elegant…
A game we’re very much looking forward to here at GameSpew, Until Dawn finally has a release date: it’s set to be released on 25 August, exclusively for PlayStation 4.

It’s all about girl power in Omega Quintet
Released to critical acclaim for the PC in 2014, action RPG Divinity: Original Sin was a resounding success for Larian Studios who partially Kickstarted the title. Fortunately for console gamers, they hope to recreate that success in 2015 by releasing an updated version by the name of Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition. Local co-op and…
Opening with a truly heart wrenching sequence, Ori and the Blind Forest may have some players struggling to start the game before it has even truly begun. It’s quite amazing to consider that this is independent developer Moon Studio’s first game, as the level of visual storytelling on display here is unrivalled within the industry….
We’re glad to pre-order the latest games, and here’s why.
Bullet hell, or just hell?
Having grown up with video games since the 80s, it’s amazing to see how far they have come. Where once I would have been blown away by the audio-visual splendour of Frogger, these days a game has to have realistic cloth physics, a cinematic soundtrack and graphics indistinguishable from real life to simply keep up…
Less woop-woop, and more uh-oh. Battlefield Hardline is a disappointingly dull cop drama.
