Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition (PS4) Review

But not having a lot of games to play on my PS4 I thought why not pick it up and see if the game really looks that much better and you know what? It does.

Archangel (iOS) Review
When I first saw previews for Archangel my mind thought, great another Diablo inspired game. But once I started playing the game I realized that it may look Diablo at heart it is in fact an easy and fun dungeon crawler that is very easy and fun to play.
