While its predecessor's floaty, unsatisfying combat remains, and its enemy variety is lacking, Revenge of the Savage Planet's freedom of movement and exploration make this short-but-sweet, eccentric Metroidvania well worth a go.
Moving Out 2 is going to be a hit with those that enjoyed the first game. For me, it didn't quite stick the landing and led to more moments of frustration than fun. Those looking for a new multiplayer party games will likely have fun with it in short blasts,...
I truly wanted Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life to feel like the true 2023 evolution of the game 10-year-old me treasured so much. But this is still very much a basic farming/ slice-of-life sim from 2003 with a fresh lick of paint to the visuals and a handful of...
Redfall feels like a victim of the great, Game Pass machine. A game with heaps of style and potential that ultimately falls short in core areas like story, mission variety and technical performance. I can't help shake the feeling development may have been rushed in order to fill a gap...
All in all, Burning Shores is a solid expansion to Horizon Forbidden West that fans of the series will want to play before the inevitable sequel. It's teeming with more sci-fi story goodness, and Los Angeles is a stunning new environment to explore, complete with all of the Horizon side...
All in all, Road 96: Mile 0 feels like a missed opportunity. Rather than building on what the original game had done so well, it deviates to tell an uninspired story with a gameplay mechanic that just doesn't really feel all that interesting to play. Road 96 fans will find...
God of War Ragnarok is the epitome of cinematic gaming experiences. It's an unforgettable, magical adventure teeming with treasures to find, legendary opponents to slay and relationships to forge along the way, all built upon a near-perfect core gameplay loop that sinks its Chaos Blades into you and refuses to...
As Dusk Falls is a mixed bag. I really admire it for trying to tackle difficult subject matter head-on, and in fleeting moments it does this excellently. It has a fantastic voice cast that help bring the characters to life, but then it undoes all of its work with clichéd...
F1 22 is another solid instalment in Codemasters' Formula 1 simulation series, even if the tweaks to the on-track gameplay aren't all that noticeable. It feels very much an annual EA sports title. Updated 'rosters' in the form of its tracks and driver ratings, a few very minor adjustments to...
The Quarry is a reminder of just how great Supermassive's games can be when given the time and the right amount of polish. A longer runtime over previous The Dark Pictures Anthology titles allows for more character-building and thus you're more invested in them and their plight. A number of...
Trek to Yomi feels like a victim of its own cinematic inspirations and artistic ambitions. While satisfying at times, the combat is ultimately pretty one-note and begins to outstay its welcome by the time you've reached the end of Hiroki's journey. I'm a sucker for artistically driven indie experiences, but...
Every once in a while, a true indie gem comes along. A classic for the ages lauded by critics and players alike. One inspired by classics, taking their best mechanics before refining and crafting something wholly unique and simply unforgettable, for better and occasionally, for worse. After more than 15...
