Spin-offs are dead handy. You take an established character that’s already known, stick them in a new environment full of fresh characters, and you’ve got yourself a Frasier. Bingo bango, job’s a goodun. It’s a format that’s done the business in television, so no wonder video games have followed suit. Read more

One person’s three star review is another’s seven out of ten, so it’s just better to evaluate games via text. However, there are a lot of folks that think otherwise. They enjoy giving scores to games. And, without them, we wouldn’t have a Mystery Steam Reviews this week. So, thank you, score-givers. Read more
