These individual parts feel like they should have led to a better game, but Escape Dead Island can never really seem to decide what it wants to be when it grows up. With a little more attention to the insanity aspect of the game and a greater feeling of actual...
That being said, The Marvelous Miss Take is so good because it’s a rare thing in games – it’s a unique twist on an established formula. You’re forced to think far more cleverly if you want to see success in this game than most stealth games, and it’s the better...
I am very happy to see that PES has come onto the new generation of consoles in style, and of a quality that is competitive with a series many times its budget. The world would be worse off without this alternative to FIFA, and without an alternative that presents a...
With plenty of levels, several endless modes and multiple characters, there’s a lot of replay value to be had in Rollers of the Realm. The relatively toned back violence makes this a game I’d readily recommend to younger audiences, and the story is very good on the inclusivity front with...
LittleBigPlanet 3 is not a perfect by any means, and since it is a platformer at heart it may not appeal to those who are not a fan of that particular genre. However, it is a well-designed game that lacks some polish but at the same time presents a world...
LEGO titles look like they are made for kids, but they really are aimed for almost everyone. Beyond Gotham could have stood for some more innovation, but it’s impossible to deny that it’s a charming game with its tried-and-true.
BioWare achieved everything that it needed to with Dragon Age: Inquisition. It revitalised a series that had suffered real brand damage in Dragon Age II, and the third game in its fantasy trilogy easily stands as the best RPG we’ve seen in years. There is absolutely no reason to miss...
Peggle 2 is an addicting game packed with silly fun that anyone can manage. If you haven’t played Peggle before, this game will hold a higher value than if you had. There were several areas which could have been improved upon to help maintain the community’s interest. I would recommend...
Yes, it’s a game that looks aged on release thanks to the decision to drop it on last gen consoles (though I’ll bet my house a remastered version of the entire trilogy lands on the new gen consoles at some point… hopefully with Liberation as well). But Rogue has something...
Unity plays well, but it’s not really good enough for a AAA-game to play well, and this especially applies to Assassin’s Creed, which has always been a franchise with stronger narrative and thematic value than its counterparts. I see potential in a Napoleonic-era trilogy for the Assassin’s Creed franchise. As...
Tengami is an arthouse game. It’s the kind of experience that, like Gone Home, people will dismiss for lacking action or having a narrative that doesn’t treat its players like idiots, but it’s also the kind of game that shows that the games industry is growing up and pushing the...
