I was all ready to click ‘Buy’ on the new ‘Enhanced’ edition of Blade Runner… until the reports of those who were keener and quicker to do so put me off. To be honest I’d sort of forgotten about it – the last time we wrote about Blade Runner here it was to note that […]

Happy Friday everyone, hope you’re all doing well. Today’s review is the 1996 racing sequel Screamer 2.

Hello everyone. Today’s game is a return to the Need for Speed franchise, and a remake/reboot of a previously successful instalment. Here’s a review of the 2012 edition of Need for Speed: Most Wanted. Plus, a reminder that we have a brief history of all of the Need for Speed games we’ve covered here, the […]

Soundtracks is where we take a look back at the use of licensed music in games. Go here if you want to know more. Today’s game needs no introduction, although it’s going to get one anyway, because that’s how these things work. Despite generally being regarded as part pastiche and a bit of a light-hearted […]

Hello. As regular readers (if they, indeed, exist) will know, when we review a game here at FFG, we make damned sure that we get straight on with reviewing the sequel. Covering a series of games in a timely fashion, and in the correct order, is our top priority, and we will not compromise that […]

I’ve recently had to downgrade my awareness of modern football games from ‘slightly out of touch’ to ‘haven’t really played one properly for 10 years or so’. Since PES 2010, and a brief flirtation with FIFA at around the same time, it’s largely been a case of buying one or other of the two big […]

Hello once again and welcome to Discussion: [indie game] (spoilers!), a series with a title that should be self-explanatory but which still prompts me to attempt further elaboration at the top of each and every piece. If you like fairly rambling discussions about indie adventures with a story, you’re in the right place. Be careful, […]

Soundtracks is where we take a look back at the use of licensed music in games. Go here if you want to know more. And we’re back! Just as the last ‘proper’ instalment of this series promised that we would be, er, 18 months ago. Believe it or not, I do have a plan, of […]

Hi there. I’ve been RPG-ing (and Star-Wars-ing) again. With possibly too many references to Mass Effect and an unwitting segue into the merits or otherwise of recent Star Wars films, here’s a look at Knights of the Old Republic.

Cricket games were once released so infrequently that I used to end up buying pretty much each and every one, at some point. If there was one that I thought might be good, I’d get it on release, but even those that I was fairly sure would be disappointing, I’d look out for in sales […]
