Steve Wright's Reviews
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
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 isn't a bad game by any means, but it's one that only die-hard JRPG fans will love.
In the end, I wish Hidden Agenda was more of a traditional PS4 game rather than a PlayLink gimmick. Still, with a solid (yet slightly predictable storyline; at least, the one I played through), it's well worth a go. Supermassive is quickly becoming my favourite Sony developer.
It's fun to play at some times, and frustrating in others.
Unlike a lack of response (or urgency) after the launch of Star Wars: Battlefront, I truly hope that lessons are learned quickly and implemented before Battlefront 2's player base walks away in protest. Again.
Super Lucky's Tale is by no means bad — it's simply good; fun, but easily forgettable. If it was released at a different time than Odyssey, it may have made more of an impression, but alas, here we are.
Just Dance 2018 is relatively inoffensive; it's a great purchase for those who didn't grab last year's iteration.
Just like The Stick of Truth, The Fractured But Whole is 100% South Park. This is a must for fans of the show, while those who enjoy a challenging RPG will delight in cranking up the difficulty and working through its many systems.
It's a solid, emotional romp filled with challenge and scares alike. It's certainly recommended.
Lord of the Rings fans will eat this up, as will those who like to delve into a game world and walk away, hours and hours later, without ever coming closer to completion of a main quest mission. If you can ignore all the glitches and bugs, this game is for you.
This is a nice mixture between rigid simulator and cruisy arcade racer, accessible to all.
I had very few gripes with Sparkle 2.
In the end, Cuphead proves to be everything I wanted it to be — challenging, stylised and fun. It's a tough, tough game — but unlike Dark Souls, my failures in Cuphead made me want to keep playing. Bring it on.
Death of the Outsider is polished, yet largely forgettable when compared to its previous iterations.
Those who passed on the original title because of its weak launch will find this is a completely different experience
Despite its shine, Knack 2 is bland — a well-polished bit of blandness, mind you — but one you could easily skip over.
