Update 2018
As you can see I’ve taken a break from blogging due to life and work in general. However, I am now back on the case with this and I have been keeping busy as well. So, you should see plenty more being added to this as the weeks and months go by.

Marvel Online Update
Here is my Marvel Online update, the game has been live now for around a week and signs are that it’s a good game with bags of potential. Originally I reviewed it during its pre launch and as expectedit WAS full of issues. Thankfully the support team have worked hard to iron things.

The Look – still 7/10
Originally I gave it a solid 7/10 and I think this is still about right. The artwork on Marvel is pretty good but not difficult. The theme has been captured well a...
