SoulCalibur V Review (PS3)

SoulCalibur V delivers some excellent fights and intense action, offering a level of depth and complexity unseen in previous entries. But there isn’t enough variety within the matches themselves for it to be considered among the top-tier fighters on the market.

Batman: Arkham City Lockdown (iOS)

Asylum was great, wasn’t it?

E3 2011 – Hulk Hogan’s Main Event Preview (Kinect)

Hulk Hogan’s Main Event was one of the surprise games at E3 for me.

Fabulous atmosphere, even though it was [...]

TheFluffyFist dips his toes into the murky waters of fighting games once again. Is SNKs latest offering any good?
