A well-written story that doesn't quite gel together properly and a lack of actual things to do make this a sub-par start to this potentially great sequel.
An excellent, painfully brief piece of storytelling, with some decent characters and a lot of heart.
Immerse yourself in Detroit's wonderfully realised world, engage with its characters and stories, and you'll love this game.
A very strong multiplayer offering tarnished by overly complicated character progression, and a lavish, beautiful story campaign lacking in substance or subtlety.
Wolfenstein 2 offers slick shooting, plenty of spectacle, and heaps of fun characters to interact with. The plot is far from perfect, and levels are a touch dull, but overall it's a must-play.
Rugby 18 is a dire simulation of the sport, with a paper-thin selection of modes, and relentlessly poor presentation.
A thrilling, authentic recreation of Star Trek that brings out the team player in everyone. Just a shame it's such a pain to set-up.
Andromeda provides an interesting premise and story, but is let down by poor combat, excessive padding, and over-complication
A wonderful recreation of Skyrim, which remains - despite rough edges and badly-aged elements - one of the greatest RPGs ever made.
There's a definite delight to claiming the spoils of your killing, though. The Division scratches that 'gimme slightly better loot' itch, hard and fast. You're constantly bagging vaguely superior gear and flicking into the menus to equip it and make your character slightly more powerful or useful.
