Originally I was going to criticise the combat for similar issues, but the longer I played the game the more responsive I realised the combat was. Dodging will always give you invincibility frames, and clicking in the left stick will lock on to the nearest enemy. Also, the charged punch...
If you wouldn’t normally touch a hunting game, I’d urge you to view theHunter: Call of the Wild as the ultimate “walking simulator” and give it a fair shake of the shotgun. I don’t regret the many rewarding hours I ploughed into this engaging, immersive safari and can see myself...
Priced at £11.99 and set to support the Xbox One X when it’s released next month, Danger Zone is now a much more appealing package than it was months ago, and there’s even promise of more content to come. The excitement it provides is still some way away from that...
Destiny 2 is… broad. It is a showcase of improvement and compromise. It is a time vacuum. It’s hard to not enjoy playing Destiny 2, yet still possible to dislike a fair portion of it. This game is a resurgence of excitement and enjoyment that began to fade late into...
It’ll probably only take you two or three hours to make your way through Let Them Come‘s campaign, but it’s an absolute joy from start to finish. And with a wealth of additional content, you’ll find yourself going back time and time again. It’s one of those unassuming games that...
Packed with more content than ever, visuals that leave you astounded and a driving model that is exciting yet ever reliable, Forza Motorsport 7 is clearly ahead of the pack when it comes to racing games. There are some changes that may alienate legacy Forza Motorsport players, but prize crates...
Such issues that are very likely to be patched only serve to take the sheen off Project CARS 2 though rather than put a real dent in it. You can tell that there’s been heart and soul poured into the game, and while it’s sometimes a little rough around the...
It’s a LEGO game alright, and these small but meaningful changes make it one of the better titles in the collection. Even if the Ninjago franchise doesn’t interest you as much as Batman or Marvel Superheroes might, the gameplay and signature LEGO humour makes The LEGO Ninjago Movie Videogame well worth jumping...
But there is an unexpected bright side to Hidden Dragon Legend. It’s obvious just from looking at the game that its developers really cared for it. Someone loved it and tried to elevate it from the cloying mediocrity of its bland and tepid gameplay with some really rather good art,...
After experiencing the finished product, I’m pleased to see that Pankapu turned out to be such a charming and worthwhile adventure. It made me reminisce about the platformers of the past in the same manner as Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap, but it did so through the use of an...
WRC 7
For ardent rally fans then, WRC 7 is well worth a look. The often dull visuals are well worth enduring for the brilliant track design on offer, and after some tweaking the handling model is very rewarding. It’s doesn’t do much to improve on last year’s offering, but those after...
If you didn’t like the gameplay loop of Steamworld Dig, then there are probably not enough changes here to massively alter your opinion. But for those of us who did enjoy it, then Steamworld Dig 2 will happily suck us right back in, the refinements made creating the perfect balance between familiarity and...
