The Star Wars Uncut project is a massive fan collaboration to remake the Star Wars movies. This crowd-sourced project started in 2009 when Star Wars: A New Hope was cut up into segments, lasting only a few seconds each, and divided amongst thousands of fans to remake in anyway they chose, then stitched back together...

The Witcher is an action RPG based on a book of short stories by the same name. It’s a Polish game and uses Polish folklore providing a different feel and monsters you will not have encountered in other games. It’s low fantasy within a believable, feudal world stricken by war, poverty and plague. Witchers are...

Tomb Raider 2013 is an Origin Story for Lara Croft and a reboot of the Tomb Raider franchise. This is a reboot done right and it streaks ahead of any of the previous games in the series. It keeps Lara’s character concept and the 3D platformer gameplay but everything else is reinvented for the new...

Dear Ester is an experimental indie game built with the Half Life engine. In fact some have argued it shouldn’t be called a ‘game’ at all; the only mechanic is exploration. You walk along a largely linear path and are rewarded by a poetic voice-over every so often. You can look at things and take...

The Ball is an Indie First-Person Action/Adventure/Puzzler where you play an archaeologist who has fallen down a hole, finds a massive Ball and decides to play with it. Let’s face it: we’ve been dying for another ball-based puzzle game since Marble Madness...

It’s time for one of them awesome cross-webcomic events. It’s summer and time for a Swimsuit Special with lots of webcomics participating. Please check out the links below to see some fantastic swimsuit-themed art! We at United Webcomics are a very body positive crowd, so some NSFW. I think mine gets by – just! This...

You may have heard of Pet Shaming – where pets are photographs next to notes explaining their bad behaviour. But what about those misbehaving dice, eh? Shouldn’t they be ashamed of ruining your winning strategy with their terrible rolls? Well fear not – because Dice Shaming is now a thing and it’s catching on! This...

Risen 3 has just been released, but this is a review of the original Risen released in 2009 for PC and Xbox. In a reversal of the usual trend this is a great PC game with a terrible port to console, so if you’re thinking of getting it for PC – absofiggin’lutely! Xbox? Give it...

Zeno Clash is a surreal first-person brawler set in the fantasy world of Zenozoik. You play the role of Ghat who, seemingly, has the whole of this strange world against him save one faithful companion, Daedra. Ghat has murdered a hermaphrodite creature called ‘Father-Mother’ who is, yes, both Father and Mother to himself and a...

‘Talk Nerdy to Me‘ is a parody of the song/music video of Jason Derulo’s ‘Talk Dirty to Me.’ It’s getting added to my Geek Mixtape, that’s for sure. It had me at “Hey, listen!” and Starfleet uniforms. It’s funny and clever and speaks to me. Yes – nerds are sexy! There’s references to Star Trek...

This is a review of the PC version of Alice: Madness Returns from Steam. I want to make that clear because the game was written for the Xbox console and it’s possibly better on that. The port to PC, however, is poor. The keyboard controls are practically impossible requiring too many keys to be pressed...
