Ultimately, XCOM 2: War of the Chosen buries even the most tactically-sound gamer under a mountain of entertaining challenges and adds not only several hours of content to play through, but well-neigh infinite replayability as well - we can't wait to restart the fight and see how a new batch...
Life is Strange: Before the Storm Episode 1 is an incredible first look at the new season, and promises much for the future. Deck Nine is clearly capable of taking over the reins from the excellent DONTNOD, and despite a switch in developer, a change in Chloe's voice actress, and...
During the 20+ hours that can be plugged into Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle's campaign, fans will be exposed to a funny and visually engaging world worth exploring that features some genuinely challenging portions of combat. Reoccurring enemies may weigh down an otherwise varied universe, but the end result of this...
While the long, immersion-breaking load times and repetitive nightmare sections are disappointing, horror fans will still find a game worth sinking their teeth into with Observer. Observer's story is reason enough to play the game to completion, but even those that aren't driven by the disturbing cyberpunk tale may still enjoy its...
All in all, though, F1 2017 is another extremely strong entry in the series from Codemasters. Although newcomers to Formula One in its entirety might find it a little challenging to grasp, particularly when it comes to the in-depth Career Mode, racing fans and Formula One fans in general should...
Miitopia is certainly unique in its execution, but the core RPG framework for the title is far from innovative. In that regard, the it's one of the more accessible turn-based role-playing games currently available on the Nintendo 3DS, and this is made even better by the often-bizarre blank canvas that...
Despite these flaws, Agents of Mayhem truly does offer a unique and fresh spin on the Saints Row world. By distancing itself from the main franchise's core characters and conflicts, the game is able to embrace its own aesthetic and create a new world that is just as weird and...
Some puzzle areas are a bit more open and allow Senua to explore off the trail. Although the punishing combat received a lot of attention during the early gameplay reveals, the bulk of gameplay in Hellblade is actually focused around solving a variety of puzzles that open doors to gated...
Tacoma
Severe technical problems aside, anyone that's a fan of "walking simulators" will likely enjoy Tacoma, but it won't win over critics of the genre. The game's technical problems on Xbox One are a real shame, especially since the game is console exclusive to Xbox One, but those looking to look past...
Pyre
Like the award-winning Transistor and Bastion, Pyre is a superb effort by Supergiant Games, and cements the studio as one of the industry's premiere indie game developers. Even if players aren't excited by its sports-like gameplay features, Pyre has a wonderful cast of characters and an engaging story that make it hard to put...
Orcs Must Die! Unchained
Even with these console-specific issues, Orcs Must Die! Unchained from Robot Entertainment is one of the better free-to-play games on the PlayStation Store. The controls may be tighter on PC and there's clearly room for improvement in some other areas as well, but Orcs Must Die! Unchained is still worth taking the time...
All that would have been lost had the gameplay not been up to scratch, but rest assured that Sundered is a gem of a Metroidvania title, with addictive and more-than-a-little challenging gameplay. Mix that in with a neat repetition and level up system and - best of all - the...
