If you're looking to get a taste of the Luigi's Mansion series, turn your sights to the third game instead, as you'll have much more fun with it when compared to this HD remaster. Or at the very least, play this HD version before the third game, as it's very...
Destiny 2: The Final Shape is not for everyone, it's for the veterans and the players who have stuck by this game year-after-year-after-year, and it's precisely this that makes it such a brilliant end product. It's crammed to the brim with content, has hugely impactful and important story developments, takes...
Capes
I do think that with an undo button in combat and perhaps an adjustment and tweak to the difficulty, or perhaps the sheer number of enemies that Capes throws at you, it could be a top turn-based strategy title. As it is, with its few pitfalls, it isn't quite as...
Ubisoft has something very special on their hands here, but if this launch version of XDefiant is even a marginal sign of this game's future, it will not survive. It's free so check it out and play it for a couple of days, but you'll probably go back to Call...
Sure, the ethereal jazz soundtrack is a blast to listen to and feels perfectly designed to suit this game world, and the fact that you can customise Hauntii with different hats and clothing items brings a bit of personality to the game. Yet, I can't help but feel as though...
I have still enjoyed my time with Galacticare though. This is one of those games where the hours can fly by without you ever really noticing. There's a lot of brilliance, charm, and potential with this game, which is why it's a bit frustrating that the presentation holds it back...
The best way to describe King Arthur: Legion IX is that it's just more Knight's Tale, because there's not enough truly unique and fresh elements to make this game stand out above or beyond its predecessor. That's not exactly a bad thing, because Knight's Tale is a pretty competent strategy...
But it doesn't change the fact that this game just lacks a fun factor. Lunar Lander Beyond struggles to entertain and engage the player, mostly due to the fact that the core and base gameplay feels outdated and sluggish. While we can all thank Lunar Lander for being the predecessor...
Sons of Valhalla is a great strategy game and definitely a title worth taking a look at during this steadier April. It's not a flawless project and it has its vices, but the setup, the simplicity, and the minor elements that all work hand-in-hand to make this feel more premium...
Botany Manor is an ideal Game Pass game. It's easy, charming, vibrant, and sweet. This is a puzzler that has just the right balance of challenge and simplicity, and the first-person setup and the wonderful presentation make for an immersive experience in a world you want to explore. It doesn't...
It's for these reasons that I'm at a bit of an impasse with Pepper Grinder. I don't think the length is its biggest issue, but it's definitely something that stands out when the game lacks narrative, world-building, and complex level design that asks the player to explore. It's a bit...
Despite the fact that Princess Peach: Showtime! has some brilliant elements and is effortlessly fun, it is clear that it feels like a safer and more rudimentary offering from Nintendo. But, for younger folk or those less familiar with gaming or the world of Mario, there is heaps of fun...
