Once again, this is our final review, an updated version of our earlier review in progress, based on eFootball PES 2020 with the latest patches, transfer update, and online modes.
We have yet to play multiplayer with the pre-release version, but we'll update this review with impressions soon.
All in all, Spiders has created a solid addition to any RPG lover's digital shelf. It's a stunning story, brought to life with excellent characters and acting, and the combat is fun too. The sad thing was the facial animations that, for us, just soured the experience. The other minor...
If you love the idea of being a scallywag in space, running deliveries here and there, shooting policemen and pirates, selling contraband, trading your goods, and then upgrading your ship with your hard-earned coin, then Rebel Galaxy Outlaw could well be the sci-fi adventure that you've been looking for. It's...
WRC 8
All in all, WRC 8 has delivered. It's a deep rally sim with lots of modes and plenty of things to do. Managing your team and making business decisions adds an interesting dynamic, and the career mode is very deep and involving. It looks, feels and sounds great, with the...
Gears 5, like a phoenix rising from the ashes, is back and in top form. The Coalition has added in the most important ingredient that the series seems to have lacked since Epic released the two first games, and that's ambition. It's technically brilliant with engaging battles that we can't...
The audio-visual design, coupled with the variety of upgrades, enemies and playable characters, makes Dead Mage's family-focused adventure a joy to play. The biggest issues come from the difficulty of pushing through hefty dungeons alone, which can be easily overcome by joining up with a friend, a move that makes...
Rich in '80s nostalgia, Knights and Bikes is a thoroughly enjoyable tale of unlikely friendship and supernatural events that we would urge you to try in co-op. The narrative captures the wonder and curiosity of being a child whilst almost delving into more sensitive subject matters and we enjoyed how...
Overall Telling Lies is a good FMV game that makes you use your brain to put together the pieces that are strewn all over. It's not easy and it's certainly not straightforward, but Barlow leaves enough clues to give you threads to follow, while still hiding details in there for...
Oninaki could have been a great JRPG, but a poor script and dull characters make the whole thing a monotonous and repetitive affair. Sadly, third time is not the charm in this case. It appears Tokyo RPG Factory has become a mass producer of mediocre RPGs rather than the connoisseur...
Even with the disappointing ending, we can thoroughly recommend Blair Witch. It's Bloober Team's best work to date and is a treat for not only Blair Witch fans but horror enthusiasts as well. It's effective and really put us on edge as we made our way through the forest, just...
Astral Chain is not a wild experiment like Star Fox Zero, it's not as introspective as Nier: Automata, and it's far from as extravagant as Bayonetta, but it has something else. We don't know if we could put Astral Chain on the top of the pedestal as Platinum's best game,...
