Around the world of PlayStation
If you’re looking for a big old slice of nostalgia with a hefty side order of absolute mayhem this week, Retro City Rampage DX has you more than covered. With nods to more classic games than I could count (Paperboy and the original Grand Theft Auto were standouts though), this is fantastic 8-bit fun – and what’s more, it’s incredible value as Cross-Buy gives you access to the PS4, PS Vita and PS3 versions for only one purchase.
With Fred away on holiday this week, it’s been down to the three stooges to hold the fort…
Corey: “All the Rogue One excitement of late has made me turn to . Turns out I’m kind of a big deal in the Resistance…”
Matt: “I picked up the Resident Evil Origins double pack last month and with my TV now fixed I can finally jump in to REmake. The good: for a 14-year-old game, it looks and plays fantastic. The bad: all of Barry’s classic one liners from the original RE have been rewritten. The ugly: his new one liners might be even cheesier!”
