Latest Reviews
The LEGO franchise has always had the ability to create pitch perfect parodies of the various creative works it has come up against, from Hobbits to super heroes there have been so many spot on observations and perfectly timed comedy beats in the games to date. In fact it wouldn’t...
Thief
Despite its slow and dreary start, Thief builds to deliver an experience that most stealth fans will lap up. However, most Thief fans will mourn the loss of the reboot’s freedom and choice. That said, Thief is ultimately a game that delivers epic highs and mediocre lows, and for the...
Strider
I’m old enough to remember Strider when it first hit consoles in 1989. The SEGA Mega Drive version blew my mind. It had a stunning futuristic aesthetic, a pumping techno soundtrack and an acrobatic ninja hero, making it a world away from the cutesy platformers of the time. I loved...
Rayman Legends
It’s almost impossible not to smile while playing Rayman Legends. Whether you’re leaping, floating and slapping your way through Michel Ancel’s sumptuous 2D platformer in single-player or co-op, there’s a kind of madcap, anarchic and joyful exuberance to it that’s undeniable. It’ll make you grin from ear to ear.
The short version of this Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII review is this: If you haven’t played FFXIII or FFXIII-2 then don’t bother with this. Frankly the storyline is likely to be a perplexing quagmire even for those who are au fait with the series, so newcomers would be best...
Fable Anniversary
There’s nothing quite like the Fable series. While many roleplaying games draw on the fantasy of Tolkien and George R.R. Martin, Lionhead’s leading franchise imbues fairy tale and folklore with the youthful adventure of the Harry Potter books, the irreverent buffoonery of Monty Python and the bawdy humour of Chaucer....
Boasting a strong female heroine in Aveline, Assassin's Creed: Liberation is worth the asking price, but only just. The fragmented story was excusable on PS Vita, but on Xbox 360 and PS3, Assassin's Creed: Liberation's myriad cracks and flaws are glaring. Aveline may be a thinly-drawn character, but she's one...
When Microsoft purchased Danish developer Press Play back in 2012, there was always the question, “why?” With very few franchises under their belt or much triple-A experience, it was a questionable choice. Now we know why. To create a successor to their original hit, Max & the Magic Marker. Interesting....
A solid port of its mobile and PC counterparts, Halo: Spartan Assault is an enjoyable twin-stick shooter that provides little in the way of real longevity or value for money. Still, if you've nothing else left to play on Xbox One, you could do a lot worse.
Peggle 2
At face value, we'd have never thought that Peggle would unapologetically consume hours of our life and never give them back. But lo, it did upon its release back in 2007, and still does today, as we dip into it on occasion to satisfy our Peggle cravings. And now it's...
Fighter Within
Better than Fighters Uncaged, but that wasn’t too hard. Fighter Within works, and that’s the only positive thing to say about it. For £50, you’re best off paying for a session of S&M with your local masochist. It’d last longer.
Need for Speed: Rivals
Drifting around a long, sweeping coastal road in Need for Speed: Rivals, behind the wheel of a roaring, tyre-screeching Ferrari 458 Spider, with cop car sirens blaring in your ears, supercars breathing down your neck and waves crashing in the distance, has to be one of the most enjoyable next-gen...
