Does this peaceful atmosphere conceal some dark secrets?
As a videogame reviewer I usually undertake some background research into the game I’m reviewing before I put pen to paper, especially if it’s a title which has been part of a series that I’m not overly familiar with.This helps me to see the how the game has evolved over time and grants me with sufficient knowledge to be able to deliver a balanced appraisal of the latest title.
