But none of this changes my opinion that Dead Space Remake is one of the best remakes we've ever received. The technological, audio, and graphical improvements all do wonders for the level of immersion that this game relies on, and the quality and polish is so welcome when considering some...
And that's the key thing to take away: Dread Templar is an outrageously fun retro FPS. It's straightforward, simple, thrilling, action-packed, and exciting, and is the perfect sort of game for anyone who is solely looking for an old-school Doom-like title - fitted with a blood-pumping metal soundtrack - to...
But, despite the clear positives and places where Children of Silentown excels, I can't ignore the moments that make me want to bang my head against a wall. The narrative and dialogue is well written, the town strikingly drawn, the plot deep and unsettling, there are just too many moments...
Which is a shame because there are some interesting and entertaining elements to be found in Soccer Story. The idea is a unique one, the way that football has been incorporated into exploration has potential, the world design is vibrant and crammed with activities, and the progression creates a degree...
As you can see, there are moments in Evil West that impress, but generally speaking, this is not a title that will blow you away at all. The best way to describe Evil West is to think of it like a movie directed by Michael Bay: sure, it's entertaining at...
Does it feel AAA? Yes. Is it flashy and pretty? Yes. Is the third-person mode a nice touch? Yes. Is proximity chat one of the best and most hilarious features added to Call of Duty ever, arguably better than death comms? Absolutely. But is Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 a...
It's a game that right now is very fun and friendly to the user. Will it remain this way as the seasons progress and more mechanics and features are added? Well... that's the real question, but if Second Dinner can keep things simple, fast-paced, and as thrilling as it is...
There is a lot of Harvestella that I appreciated and enjoyed. I like the farming systems and how they connect into the wider gameplay, the combat, Job system, and variety of enemies that keep exploration interesting. But, the world doesn't beg to be explored, the pacing is so steady, and...
If it wasn't for the very clear, overlapping similarities with the incredible 2018 game, then I would probably dub this a true masterpiece. The quality of narrative is near unmatched, the combat and gameplay elements still excellent, the art design and visual offering remarkable. Santa Monica Studio has not disappointed...
Between the shockingly barebones offering (I managed to earn 10 of the 12 Trophies within 40 minutes of gameplay...) and the strange design choices on top, I can't see any reason why you should play this game over other shooters currently on the market. Even looking solely at the free-to-play...
But generally speaking, it's clear that Shadows of Rose has fallen into the same trap as Village. Like the main game, this expansion is fun to play and has its highlights, but does it really feel like a Resident Evil game of old, does it excel in horror elements and...
The original Kingdom Battle is still a very fun game, but there's no denying that this is a step up in pretty much every conceivable way. From the more fluid combat to the countless more exploration opportunities, to the extra playable character options and how Sparks are both charismatic and...
