I'm one of those players who usually avoid survival games, which is perhaps why I took so long to get to We Happy Few. Eventually my gamer instinct whispered in my ear: "You have to play this someday! Apparently it's very similar to Bioshock - not only in terms of its graphic style …". So […]
Can violent games, which give us points for completing demoralizing tasks, be a great educational adventure? Will Angry Birds contribute to an increase in IQ of the population? Maybe yes, maybe no. But I can, without hesitation, say that games have always been a very good source of positive experience and useful knowledge. Hand-eye coordination […]
There was once a time in my life when I just wanted to finish games without respite and a shadow of reflection. Fortunately after some time my approach to games (and other media as such) began to change significantly. I started to respect them and desired to take a closer look at each of them. […]
I had a pleasure to hold a lot of controllers, but DualShock 4 is without a doubt my favorite. Not only because of the shape and the arrangement of buttons, but also because of pure practicality. Firstly - it's compatible with PlayStation 3, so when I want to play a game on the older generation, […]
It's been seven years since the launch of the revolutionary, but monotonous first Assassin's Creed. Today, we have new generation of consoles and a game you can't stop looking at with so greatly varied contents that pour out of the screen. It's a pity that it's choking all the time because of very poor optimization […]
For the last 10 years during the holiday season there was always a new Call of Duty. Not all editions of this series were particularly outstanding, but certainly it is one of the few series that keep their place on top. After the release of Advanced Warfare nothing will change in that matter because we […]
For the first time in several years Call of Duty has no competition in the pre-Christmas period, thus there is nothing to stop it from breaking further records in sales. In addition there is finally a breath of freshness in the series, with the most fun parts untouched. Right now, I'm after four hours of […]
Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor was a great unknown until the release day. And here it turns out that we have received a decent chunk of sandbox game which introduces a new level of gameplay depth - and does it well. The main character is Talion - a guard serving on the Black Gate. The orcs […]
#GamerGate is trying to tell us that some reviews are not always written in accordance with journalistic ethics. But wait, it's not the end of the story. We also learn that "the only true gamers are heterosexual men who like to look at sexy women and scenes full of bloody violence". I always thought that […]
Destiny is a strange game. Nearly the whole solar system at your fingertips, and players will just keep shooting into a cave. For hours. Literally. After mixing so many genres into one, the game has no hangover at all. But all that glitters is not gold. Destiny storyline is full of symbols and understatements. The […]
The first footage from Watch_Dogs revealed at E3 in 2012 was not only a great surprise, but, in a sense, visualized hopes on what will the so called next-gen games offer and look like. It is true that the six months release delay could arouse doubts, but ultimately it was worth the wait.
Assassin's Creed (IV): Black Flag is the first installment of the main series with a different modern main character. The only thing left after Desmond Miles are his memories. Abstergo Entertainment along with Ubisoft creates games and movies based on the data drawn from the ancestral memories stored in the genes.
The thing with animated movies is that there are almost always songs sung by the main characters. The trick lies in the technique of implementation them into the motion picture. Sometimes they can be really frustrating. Fortunately, Disney does the job with such grace and emotion that even the biggest opponent of musicals will not […]
I had to wait more than three weeks to write this review because I wanted to capture everything that is on the game disc - not just the singleplayer mode available from the beginning, but also GTA Online, which was released on the 1st of October. How does the latest Grand Theft Auto look like on the not-so-new generation of […]
Metro: Last Light is a game, which makes dark corridors and dungeons feel more safe than ever. And even a slight thought about an expedition to the surface seems to be worse than anything else.
Richard B. Riddick is back in a little repeated, but still a good shape. If the movie was not the official continuation of the storyline from The Chronicles of Riddick (2004), it would be difficult to not call it a remake of Pitch Black (2000).
We should know now for fact that a return to the roots and simple solutions may be better than the pursuit of new technologies and photo-realistic 3D graphics. Rayman Legends, just like two years ago Rayman Origins is strongly inspired by the original 1995 Rayman and although the second and third installments were created in […]
PS Vita starts to shine, but only because of correct approach of game developers. Sony created a pocket monster that is able to take a fight with awesome graphics, but it has to be given a chance. Killzone: Mercenary is a display of capabilities of this console, but not only.
With each passing day technological inventions combined with creative, but at the same time utilitarian approach make life easier for millions of people around the world who for several computerized years have naturally been adopting all the fruits of that development. The storm of new (not necessarily good) ideas does not go on par with marketing and […]
This time I have a pleasure to tell you about a Wild West game in Polish execution. The continuation of the Call of Juarez series titled Gunslinger is a come back to the roots after a not-so successful trip to the present in The Cartel. This time, it is neither a sequel nor a prequel […]
Over the last decade the whole genre of adventure games didn't have it easy, and the best titles were produced by independent developers. The Book of Unwritten Tales is also a work of an independent game studio, although when I look at this production I feel like it was made by of a well-known, experienced team supported […]
Guild Wars 2 is a game which was awaited by millions, virtually by the whole MMO genre, and I waited too - for more than five years. But relax, let's start from the beginning that is from the first Guild Wars, which in 2005, in a way, has revolutionized the MMO market. The game was original, but excelled in […]
Risen 2: Dark Waters is another game created by Piranha Bytes, which unfortunately repeats the same mistakes as the Gothic series and the first Risen. You'd think that the creators are doing it on purpose and treat these inaccuracies as their trademark. If so, they'd better stop.
The first Battlefield released only on consoles turned out to be not only a great shooter, but also introduced an extensive system of destruction of the environment that allowed to blow entire buildings. There have also been some changes in the single-player mode. Rather humorous than serious storyline leaves clear traces of a fairly charismatic […]
The game which like many others was supposed to tear off millions of players from World of Warcraft. Great universe, wonderful ideas, original execution and some bad decisions. This is the way to describe the MMORPG in the world of King Conan. Norwegian studio Funcom is known primarily from the two parts of The Longest […]
