Guitar Hero is still a lot of fun, more so than we remember, so perhaps the hiatus has done wonders. The new guitar works out really well, and it feels like a quality build, though the clickety-clack of the strum bar is very loud (yes, we tend to hit it...
In spite of its problems, Rock Band 4 is still an entertaining game, and if you've played other games in the genre, you should know exactly what to expect. We would, however, advise genre newcomers to consider it's not cheap to get all of the necessary instruments to make a...
Overall Duck Game is a near perfect multiplayer game, and it comes with plenty of wacky charm and rock solid mechanics that ensure a fast and fair experience. The online side of the game is decent, only dragged down by the lack of host migration and slow lobby times, thus...
There's no denying that PS4 is perhaps not the ideal canvas for something like Disgaea 5: Alliance of Vengeance, which by its nature would have found in an ideal habitat on the PS Vita, like Disgaea 3 and Disgaea 4 before it, themselves games that were a better fit on...
Hyrule Warriors and Pirate Warriors 3 are much more absorbing games, and they come with much more interesting modes to play. To top that off, the previous game can now be found at a discounted price. Samurai Warriors 4-II can only be recommended if the aching in your musou-tooth can't...
A couple of concerns aside, we're satisfied with Arkane's offering. Dishonored has stood the test of time, thanks largely to an effective plot and a rock solid combat system. This is an interesting appetiser for Dishonored 2, a game expected in the second quarter of 2016. Although we think that...
In the end Transformers: Devastation is a mixed bag. Our Transformers-loving heart was completely overwhelmed to hear the old voice actors from the original series reprising their roles, we enjoyed the music from Vince DiCola (composer for The Transformers: The Movie), and we engaged with the refreshingly straight forward story...
I simply can't recommend Skyhill. It's priced too high on Steam and I would be furious if had stumbled on it for the amount it currently costs. For couple of quid on an iPad, or as a free browser game it would be worth a try but on PC you...
Still, we're glad Gaming Minds accepted the challenge and left their comfort zone. Grand Ages: Medieval does a lot of things right, and the presentation is nice. Although many elements could do with more depth and detail, none of what's here is unnecessary or annoying. A few areas will surely...
But how are you able to measure if you're improving? Well, again as we do in real golf, by a handicap rating system. After playing five rounds, you will establish a handicap rating. From here you increase or decrease your handicap score depending on how well you're playing. This makes...
However, these bugs aren't even the worst thing about Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5. The worst thing is that the game, on more than one occasion, froze and then cleared out our save game, which forced us to start from scratch several times. All this is of course totally unacceptable...

What we liked best, however, was the lack of cheap scares. This is a game built entirely of tension, mystery and story, and as such we enjoyed taking our time over it, savouring each hour or two spent navigating this underwater nightmare. There's moments of genuine fear in there, sequences...
