Review: InFamous: Festival of Blood

November 14, 2011 in Featured, Games, PS3, Review

You’ve got to give a developer props when it has a tried and tested formula and jettisons it all for a new look and play style (for the better). This stand-alone adventure for bros Cole and Zeke has a decidedly Halloween edge with a strong Nosferatu lean. It’s InFamous like you’ve never seen it before and while it may be a bit short, it’s more fun than staking a vamp in the nude. Read the rest of this entry →

Show: Bastion video review – Live from Studio 33

September 25, 2011 in Featured, Live Show, PC/Mac, PS3, Review, Studio 33, Video, Xbox 360

There’s something to be said for setting the tone with narration. A rumbling baritone can help serenade the player with its dulcet tones and cement the experience. Case and point? Bastion. Logan Cunningham voices your guide and his voracious velvety vocals vivaciously bring your actions to life as you move through this hacky-slashy RPG world. Plummeting to the Bastion from the lofty heights of Studio 33, the people’s champs Josh, Nathan and Dave work their way through the gorgeously coloured wonderland in an attempt to bring it back to its former glory.
