Ultimately as it is, Tower of Guns is best played in short bursts, with your finger never leaving the trigger. Creating a sea of destruction from an unceasing stream of pulsating projectiles can become utterly dazzling, especially since the 60 frames per second that rarely drops. With infinite ammo guns...
Overall, Blue Estate is a fun little shooter that has a sense of humour, but ends too soon. I did enjoy the game but also did feel that it got a little too repetitive. If you’re a fan of on rail shooters this is sure to please. If not, it...
Stealth Inc 2 was not only something different, but it was something different that worked. It isn’t easy to merge several styles, but Curve Studios went for it and it more than paid off.
But to let the technical issues affect your opinion of Omega Quintet is to miss the point. This isn’t a blockbuster. This is, effectively, an independent game from a small, creative team. And it’s a massive success at being that. It’s a deep JRPG mixed with both satire and humour,...
For people who enjoy getting into the multiplayer side of the Souls experience, it’s worth nothing that Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin ups the number of players that can join in to six – up from four in the original game. I’ve never got on with the...
So, while I was very late to the Borderlands party, this “HD Remaster” of the two later games in the series have converted me to the franchise. If the FPS genre moves this way en masse (and we are seeing that happen with the likes of Destiny), then I might...
Despite these issues, Ironcast is a very solid game and worthy of putting a good few hours into. It mixes genres nicely, but it has other features that really work to dampen the enthusiasm that even the most ardent RPG fan might have for it.
Overall Rack N Ruin is a game with much unmet potential. After clearing out the same area for the twentieth time, players will realise just how little effect they have on the gaming environment. No single enemy becomes interesting to corrupt or destroy when it is immediately resurrected by walking...
As a spiritual successor to some of my favourite RPGs of all time, Pillars of Eternity does those games justice with its ultra-traditional story, presentation and mechanics. But I recommend other people check it out as well, as it offers a sprawling world to explore, and a fantastic cast of...
Paperbound is an incredibly fun game that gives a gravitational spin on the same kind of competitive insanity that inspires Smash Bros. or Towerfall. Its amazingly simple aesthetics work well, and the simple nature of the game means anybody can pick it up and have a crack at it.
Overall L.A Cops is okay, if you don’t go in with high expectations. And there’s potential in the mix for the developers to patch things up and provide more consistent experience. Even with those requisite patches the game will be limited, but then at $15 it’s not asking you to...
Capcom are very lucky. It’s rare to have a formula that works so well. From the episodic formats, (not to mention the brilliantly produced “previously on” and “next time on” segments), to the strong enough gameplay, there’s enough content here for a lot of people to enjoy. I am disappointed...
