Xardion review
Its shortness is its strength, and there's no chance of getting bored since each stage only consists of a few screens. However, that's also its weakness, and it's a shame they didn't make more use of the three characters, or introduce some…

Xargon: The Mystery of the Blue Builders review
Ah the good old days, when games didn't have to have titles that made sense... or settings that made sense... or decipherable sprites. Yes, the days when floppy discs doubled as coasters after installation, and the days when a single…

X-Blades review
Ayumi has to be somebody's wet dream. The press releases talk-up the sexy art style, and emphasize how both action and anime fans will slobber over her figure and fighting moves. And no doubt, some people will be drawn to her brash…

X-COM: Apocalypse review
First, there was naught. Then God came and said: “Fiat Lux”. Next, He created the Earth. Then he populated Earth with Man. Seeing his beautiful creation, God became very proud. So proud, in fact, that some 2000 of His years later he sent…

XCOM: Enemy Unknown review
Whoops! Did you forget to upgrade your interceptors? Because now there's a UFO over Russia that you're not equipped to take down, and transferring or manufacturing more jets will take more time than you have. Oh, and the craft is going to…

XCOM: Enemy Within review
The biggest difference is that you can now do all of this with mechs, because if you're going to add one thing to a winning formula, it should probably be mechs.

X-COM: Enforcer review
I’m in a habit of paying no attention to Steam’s frequent pop-up advertisements that bring to light the various discounts the service offers on games I generally don’t care about, but the announcement that all five titles in the renowned…

X-COM: Terror From the Deep review
This is the difference Terror from the Deep presents. It takes valid threats from Enemy Unknown and overdoses them with huge injections of improved AI, accuracy and toughness. The oppressive alien fleet is back to wipe humanity from the…

X-COM: Terror from the Deep review
You start the game with bloody harpoons guns! The only way to close the vast technologic gap between races is to slaughter in mass number, steal the weapons from their corpses, and have your boffins at home make you human-friendly versions.

X-COM: UFO Defense review
X-Com gives you quite the daunting task to undertake in saving the entire world from invasion. But despite the many challenges it presents, playing it is an enormously rewarding experience that, even in this day and age, has yet to be…

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 review
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 presented me a sprawling, sometimes punishing adventure that I didn't want to see end.
