"It's the same as last year's game" is something one would normally hear when people comment on EA Sports' latest football game. Another oft-used quote would be "It's just a roster update", alluding that very little change has been made to EA Sports' legacy franchise which received a rebrand following the dissolution of their long-standing with the...
Here at Kakuchopurei.com, smartphone reviews typically take a couple of weeks to complete. This is due to the time required to not just get acquainted with the new device, we also use this period to identify the unique quirks which separate the product from the rest. How does it perform as a daily driver? How does it hold up to its predecessors and...
It's not every day you get to see two sides of the same coin back-to-back. In this instance, I'm referring to a recent Milestone/Plaion game hands-on event where we got to play two racing games, each clearly catered towards two different markets. Let's start with the one I enjoyed the most. Hot Wheels Unleashed 2: Turbocharged Hot Wheels U...
The Payday series relies on players teaming up to pull off the best money heist ever, robbing banks and getting away with it mostly unscathed. If you end up firing guns mid-mission, well, you'll have a harder time going through the police, but that's the fun of the series. The newly-announced third game of the series plans to add more mechanics ...
If you think From Software's next game in its long-revered Armored Core franchise is going to accommodate new players who want it free and breezy, think again. According to the game's lead producer Yasunori Ogura and producer Atsuo Yoshimura, Armored Core 6: Fires Of Rubicon is still going to make its player base work for its wins: instilling th...
Genndy Tartakovsky is no stranger to the animation world. With hits like Dexter's Laboratory, Samurai Jack, and Primal, you expect his name to mean quality animation work and an epic storyline unlike any other. Nowhere is this more apparent and daring than his latest work 20 years in the making: Unicorn - Warriors Eternal. The premise is simple:...
I do yearn for the days when Titanfall 2 had a better single-player campaign that's more memorable than its multiplayer mode. In fact, the late 2000s era of single-player shooters was not short of spiffy ideas even if they're all cribbing from either the first-person Call of Duty mould or even the Gears of War third-person structure. This is why...
When you think "PC" and "real-time strategy games", you think StarCraft, WarCraft, Dune, and Command & Conquer. When you think "consoles" and that genre, what immediately floods my mind are "half-assed ports of existing PC RTSs", "Brutal Legends", and "Halo Wars". The latter two points are what made the genre viable on a controller-based platfo...
Update: Video review-in-progress added. Within the 10 years since Diablo 3, the action RPG genre has seen its fair share of takers to the throne. Notable ones born out of Diablo's gaming DNA include Path of Exile (which is still going strong) and Grim Dawn (the Titan Quest successor). Other entries that literally changed perspectives and beat-to...

Thanks to the kind folks over at Electronic Arts, I got early access to Wild Hearts ahead of its release and comparing it to the hands-on preview I did on it back in October, I've got to say, I'm extremely pleased with how the game has turned out. Check out the hands-on preview we did back in October In case you don't already know Wild Hearts is ...

Tchia was originally announced back in 2020 during The Game Awards from Awaceb, a developer from New Caledonia, an island located in the Pacific Ocean. Courtesy of publisher Kepler Interactive, I spent some time with a demo for the survival adventure title. What is Tchia? Well, it's essentially an open-world sandbox adventure game set on the island...

I managed to experience a few hours of the new Italian Dynamic Campaign, an expansive single-player experience featuring a brand new ...
Deja vu is rather common in the gaming scene where sequels are a dime a dozen. After all, it's a company's surefire way to sell millions rather than with a risky new IP; that is the nature of the business. Having said that, sequels to big games can be labours of love if given the time and care. Our early hands-on with Sony Santa Monica's magnum ...

The best way to describe this game is probably Left 4 Dead in the Warhammer 40K univer...
We got hands-on with a demo for Electronic Arts and Koei Tecmo's first joint venture together, a revolutionary take on Capcom's Monster Hunter franchise Wild Hearts. In the demo, we got a little glimpse into the story but things that everyone's keen to hear about are the monsters or Kemono as they're dubbed in the game. When fighting the kemono ...
In 2016 and leading up to its release, Street Fighter 5 tainted everybody's perception of Capcom's meal ticket fighting game. It launched with less-than-usual features, was rushed out of the gate, and had terrible post-game content for 2 season's worth, at least for Street Fighter standards. Capcom fighting game guru Takayuki Nakayama and his te...
