It's not helped by the fact that the storytelling is abysmal, as is the music and presentation. It's simply impossible to find a single part of Skull Island: Rise of Kong that doesn't border on record-breaking, which is why I'm forced to hand out our very lowest rating. This is...
Overall, Frank and Drake is a beautiful story with its secrets and moments, and masterfully drawn and looking better on a big screen than on a portable one.
The original Ghostrunner gave us a simple premise and great action which combined to give us a thrill we didn't know we needed. Its sequel then steps in much more confidently, fleshing out the world, introducing new characters, while still giving us the same irresistible formula that charmed fans in...
No, there's not much here to justify a purchase if you already own the twelve-year-old HD Collection, or the ten-year-old Legacy Collection. Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 is well-stocked but incomplete, containing great games that could have been updated, and putting money straight into the pockets of a...
I can look past some of the technical issues thanks to the studio's history of updating and building downloadable expansions. However, it's always unfortunate when games have these kinds of problems. If you can handle not running at the highest settings, you'll be fine. I also advise you to turn...
But, as I said, some of the time, if not much of the time, it works, and when it works, Laika: Aged Through Blood is top-notch entertainment in prime time, and proof that suddenly there is pure innovation on the indie scene worthy of mainstream attention. It didn't succeed all...
But the key thing to take away with when it comes to Super Mario Bros. Wonder is how it isn't really looking to rewrite the script of what we've come to expect from a Super Mario Bros. title, instead it's refining and perfecting the experience we've come to know and...
As scathing as I may have been on the gameplay, I do believe that Hellboy Web of Wyrd largely succeeds in being a faithful title to the franchise. However, this is down to its story, visuals, and performances, rather than the gameplay loop, which is a real problem for a...
At its best, The Lamplighters League is really charming with colourful characters and a somewhat clichéd but entertaining apocalyptic story. Unfortunately, it doesn't go all the way to the finish line and the repetitive structure is a bit of a let down, because this could have been much better than...
The theme of Wizard with a Gun is genuinely unique and interesting, and I do think it stands out in the indie space, but considering some of the absolute gems that we've have land from indie creators so far in this year alone, it's difficult to put Wizard with a...
Amazing, spectacular, superior, ultimate. All words that have been used to describe Spider-Man in his comic run and adjectives I could use to describe Marvel's Spider-Man 2. Insomniac's second major superhero effort easily swings into being one of the best games in its genre. For the majority of my time...
It's probably nostalgia talking, but as I said, I like the graphical style of the original game better, the new one is a bit too cartoony, and even though the new GUI objectively provides a better overview, I do miss the old one - but it's probably a matter of...
