So when the creator of this amazing cosplay – Clare Costigan – agreed to answer some questions I had about her cosplaying I was estatic. We covered questions focusing on her cosplaying, the challenges and rewards associated with being a cosplayer, advice for those wanting to try their hand at cosplaying and more. Read on for her […]

masseffect3

Here we are. Almost to the end of another year and it’s that time where we reflect on the year that was and decide which games were the standout in 2012. Our staff and contributors have chosen the game that they believe was the best game they played during 2012. ‘Best’ is perhaps an understatement here – these games are those which offered the most intriguing, most involving, most affective experience – the games which became more than simply ‘games’.
