A quiet kind of horror — SOMA review

After the resounding success of Amnesia: The Dark Descent, fans have been waiting with bated breath to see what Frictional Games will come up with next. SOMA, their most recent survival horror title, is a step in a different direction that is both refreshing and utterly unnerving. Unlike the Amnesia

Dance your own dance — Persona 4: Dancing All Night review

Never has a game put a smile on my face faster than Persona 4: Dancing All Night. While it’s hard to deny this rhythm spin-off of the RPG series is anything more than unabashed fan service centered around Persona 4’s excellent soundtrack, what it offers is an incredibly
