Evening, all! It’s time for another discussion piece. We aim to do something a little different each time, and certainly we’ve not got much coverage of Japanese RPGs on this site in general. So today we’re looking exactly at just that sort of game, with Ys: The Oath in Felghana.

Discussion review: Mass Effect
Hi and welcome to the latest in our ongoing series of game discussions. This time we thought we’d try ourselves against a big-name, relatively recent title. If (like us) you live under a rock and don’t keep up with modern gaming, Mass Effect is an action-RPG from the prolific Bioware. It uses third-person cover-shooter type […]
Alpha 1 is down!
Hello everyone. I finally caved in and bought Skyrim a few weeks back. And have of course been playing obsessively, running jobs for the Thieves Guild, slaying dragons and shouting bandits off clifftops. So not a lot of retro-gaming going on, alas. However I did make myself take a break long enough to play some […]
Mangle WON’T succeed!
Hello everyone. We’ve got another discussion review for you today. If old platformers are your thing, take a look at Bio Menace. Might be a few more discussions yet, hopefully looking at a range of types of game. If you’d rather read a “proper” review then don’t worry, those will remain the main feature. The […]
All of this discussion
We had quite a bit of fun last year with our series of discussion reviews, looking back at games we’d previously covered over the years. Ideally we’d have liked to have done one or two more, but these things take time, and ultimately we considered that going back and re-playing games we’d already covered, and […]
Let’s play ball
Hello. We’ve got something a little bit new for you this evening – for the first time ever, Stoo and I have co-written a discussion review. The game in question is Hardball III – so be prepared to be hit with the combined force of our baseball knowledge. We’ve also posted a little explanation of […]
I love Paris, in the fall
Hello. Our series of retrospective discussions continues, as Stoo, Jo and myself take a look back at Broken Sword. We hope you’re enjoying these, and hope to do more, but watch out for some brand-new reviews in the near future.
Bravery is not a function of firepower
Hello all. Because we like playing at features that proper professional gaming magazines and websites do, we’re continuing our series of discussion reviews. The idea is to revisit some of the games we’ve covered in the past 10 years, to celebrate this site lasting that long (hurrah for us). So far we’ve covered an ancient […]
The linesman has raised his…flag
Good evening. Tonight, as part of our 10-year anniversary-thing, we continue our look back over some of our favourite games, and reviews, of the past. This time, Stoo and I talk about Puma World Football. Hope you enjoy it – there’s more to come.
Happy birthday, to me
Hi there. Did you know that we’re 10 years old this year? Well, we are. No, don’t you worry about a present. We’ve got a few things planned. The first thing we’re going to try, though, is a series of discussions of some of our previously-reviewed games on the site, starting with 4D Sports: Driving […]
