Steve Wright's Reviews
Go out and get Donkey Kong: Tropical Freeze immediately.
Casey Powell Lacrosse 18 is a solid sports title that newcomers will find engaging and enjoyable.
God of War is a truly engrossing, enjoyable experience.
A Way Out mightn't be all I wanted it to be, but it is competent and different.
If you love Origins, you'll get a big kick out of "Curse of the Pharaohs". Simple, really.
In addition to offering up a rewarding and enjoyable sci-fi city-building experience, Surviving Mars is rife with detail.
Consider this an earnest recommendation: go and expand your horizons with Discovery Tour. You won't be disappointed.
Seeing Assassins presented as the enemy casts the game in a much different light and humanises the Templars at the same time.
Star Allies isn't bad, it's just dull. Perhaps that's worse.
Despite a lacklustre remaster (I'm looking at you, textures), returning fans will feel right at home in Paradise City with Burnout Paradise Remastered. Though newcomers to the franchise may be a little disappointed at first because of its last-gen mentality, there's still a lot to enjoy with this neat little package.
It's not perfect, but it's still pretty fun. With single- and multiplayer offerings and a wealth of nostalgia, it's hard to do wrong with Age of Empires: Definitive Edition.
Fe is simple yet complex, stylised and engaging. A six-hour affair, it's perfect for those who found delight in Journey and, to a lesser degree, Ori and the Blind Forest. For others, it might be too much style over substance.
This is one for Bayonetta hardcore fans or those who've missed out on the originals. It's also a brilliant way to get ready for Bayonetta 3.
A game of Rise and Fall makes you feel like everything you have done has really mattered. That every action taken mingles with those of others and changes the world. It's great.
While it's true that Shadow was starting to show its age in 2011 and is continuing to do so in 2018 — even rebuilt from scratch — those who've played the title before will revel in the new life that Sony's breathed into the classic. For those unfamiliar with the game, it'll be a harder sell — but that said, stick with it.
While Career gives AO Tennis some life, it still has the same issues as the game proper — major wins are celebrated the same as minor ones, and winning a tournament is hardly acknowledged at all.
The Inpatient has a solid core that is coupled with a gimmick that detracts from it.
Ultimately, the game is a mish-mash of concepts and half-cooked ideas that are never fully developed, wrapped up in a cutesy aesthetic that is at odds with its (at times) dark and disturbing themes. This is one to avoid.
This one definitely gets our recommendation, especially if you're into the genre.
Bush Hockey League is great fun — a reason to invite a friend over
