As it is though, Dynasty Warriors 9 is a game that’s just too sparse and too easy for its own good. But what’s worse is that it’s perhaps the worst performing game I’ve played on the Xbox One X. I can cope with janky gameplay and stupid AI during the...

I’m disappointed that I didn’t love Fe, and I hate being so harsh on a game I was very much looking forward to, but I can’t understate how frustrated the game’s issues left me. Though perhaps that frustration was compounded by the fact I was hoping for so much more....

The Longest Five Minutes isn’t quite all bad, though. The dialogue is written well and the music is reminiscent of old classic RPGs, but there’s simply not enough difficulty or uniqueness to keep players interested for the full duration. If you’re the most casual of gamers, then you may find the...

Monster Energy Supercross does a lot of things to impress then, but its lacklustre career mode takes a lot of shine out of the proceedings. If you’re a fan of the sport you’ll find a lot here to like, what with its worthy selection of real world tracks and bikes....

In Kingdom Come: Deliverance you’re just a small cog in a reasonably big world, but your actions feel like they have worth and impact. You’ll prove yourself to be helpful many a time, but often you’ll have to rely on others for assistance, or to even do the job for...

Overall, EA Sports UFC 3 is a great game let down by some modes that just don’t entertain as much as they should. If you have the patience to click through menu after menu or grind for cards then this is undoubtedly the best UFC game ever made. But if you...

The total package offered by Under Night In-Birth Exe: Late[st] is one worth checking out. With combos and accessibility akin to Dragon Ball FighterZ and deep, intricate mechanics like Tekken and Injustice, it truly caters to whoever chooses to pick up a controller. A diverse and unique cast, an electric...

If you were expecting Zwei: The Arges Adventure to be a hidden gem finally unearthed to play, you’ll be plenty disappointed. While there’s a lot to love within The Arges Adventure, it’s mostly superficial due to a frustrating combat system that forces most of the game to become a slog....

I don’t think that’s a bad thing, however. The Dissidia series has always defined itself by being an outlier and luckily, it has found its audience. Whether it’s made up of die-hard Final Fantasy fans or not is besides the point. Dissidia NT successfully builds upon what came before to...

After completing We Were Here Too, I couldn’t help but wonder if it took the series anywhere new, or whether it could have simply been classed as an expansion to the first. In the end, what I wanted from this title was more; I wanted to do more puzzles in...

Every other lie I, as Brandeis, told left a sour taste in my mouth and while The Red Strings Club’s linear storyline means you have no choice but to take on the aforementioned corporation, you don’t have the luxury of being in the right. Even though the game takes a...

If you’re a fan of the side-scrolling beat ’em up genre then Wulverblade certainly does enough for you to consider checking it out, but it just doesn’t feel mechanically sound enough to truly impress. It’s a shame, given the game’s strong art direction, historic bent and variety of gameplay modes.
