7.5 / 10.0 - Strange Brigade
Aug 28, 2018

Despite a largely forgettable story, Strange Brigade has a lot of charm because of its campy nature and likable, chatty characters. While best in groups, this will also suit patient types who've got a good shot and lots of time to kill.

Once you get the hang of it, Guacamelee 2 really is for everyone — challenging, but not too challenging

Unscored - We Happy Few
Aug 9, 2018

I can't help but think that early access has potentially soured the experience for those who were as excited for this game years and years ago as I was. If you're in that group, I implore you to give the game another try — it's certainly worth reconsidering.

8.5 / 10.0 - Overcooked 2
Aug 7, 2018

Playing Overcooked 2, it's evident that Ghost Games understood what worked and what didn't in the original. New mechanics feel like an evolution of core gameplay rather than the likes of a DLC pack that adds a couple new chefs or kitchens. Even new recipes like different varieties of sushi feel fun and fresh, with different components that need to be left raw or cooked.

8 / 10.0 - INSIDE
Jul 2, 2018

Playdead has greatly improved how it delivers a story, but hasn't moved away from ambiguity. The latter three-quarters of Inside cheapens the otherwise refined package, only saved because the studio is the undisputed master of horrific puzzles. Ending aside, it's definitely worth a look.

Ultimately, Donkey Kong Adventure is more Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, even if it overstays its welcome just a little bit.

Jurassic World: Evolution is a decent movie tie-in with amazing potential; if Frontier can equip players with the knowledge they need to tackle its increasingly difficult island chain, this one will have some legs.

I'm not about to ruin how Captain Spirit feeds into Life is Strange 2, but let's just say this: it's apparent, by the end of this experience, what to expect from Dontnod's next title. I reckon you won't be disappointed.

1.5 / 10.0 - Agony
May 31, 2018

In reality, poorly developed mechanics are your enemies in Agony, not the demons you're supposed to be afraid of.

If you're a huge Zelda fan you might get a kick out of Hyrule Warriors and if you're a Dynasty Warriors fan you're sure to find something to love. If you missed this on Wii U, it's worth a go, but if you've been there and done that, you're probably best saving your money for something else

Bungie promised big things for Destiny 2's newest DLC, Warmind, and has only partially delivered. Par for the course, really.
