Capcom's fighting game brings big changes to the series.
Despite a multi-player mode that’s difficult to love and a pretty atrocious story, Call of Duty Advanced Warfare pleasantly surprised. It adds enough to the core of the game – the infantry action and gun-play – that the campaign never felt like a chore and none of the set pieces...
MotoGP 14
MotoGP lacks the polish and sheen of the expensive-but-it-shows car racing games that dominate the genre.

The game feels like with a bit more depth, length and ambition it could’ve given us a pretty unique experience. Instead we get monkey/parrot taskmasters and their trivial...
Company of Heroes 2
For Company of Heroes veterans, Company of Heroes 2 feels a little like coming home. Yes, the game sticks closely to the formula that made the original such a triumph, but in this case familiarity fails to breed contempt. Whether you’re coming to Company of Heroes for the first time,...
