Steve Wright's Reviews
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.
On the whole, Resident Evil: Revelations is perfect for fans of the franchise who don't own a 3DS or didn't take advantage of the last-gen release.
It uses humour that kids will appreciate, but parents and adult gamers will get more from. Best yet, it doesn't hold your hand, demanding a carefully-planned strategy to accomplish your goals.
The Lost Legacy is a great little addition to the franchise, ideal for newcomers or fans alike.
Agents will lose most with its humour, juvenile, distracting and frustrating.
There's not much to Matterfall, but there doesn't need to be. Once again, Housemarque has made a tight little game with polished mechanics that's sure to delight.
In the end, Infinite Minigolf is a simple, engaging little title that will keep you entertained for hours on end. While it mightn't provide the endless experience its title claims to provide, its price point should be enough to forgive it. Optional virtual reality (VR) on PS4 with PlayStation VR and PC with Oculus Rift, HTC Vive doesn't hurt either, though we weren't able to test these options on Xbox One.
The main mantra of Splatoon 2 seems to be 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it', and this is fine. This new Switch offering is robust, full of content and fun. Go and feed your hungry home-handheld hybrid.
Action, adventure, variety — those looking for a decent Ultimate Alliance fix need look no further than Marvel Heroes Omega. It's great.
In short, Final Fantasy XII was a great RPG, swapping out gunblades and epic, world-destroying storylines in favour of ones revolving around political intrigue; it remains as such. It's as fun to play now as it was back in the dying stages of the PS2, and is perfect for returning fans or those who missed out previously.
Ultra Despair Girls is repetitive, clunky and worst yet, overly long. An animated film that gathered up all the cutscenes would have served as a better continuation of the world of Danganronpa. This one's for obsessives only; all others need not apply.
World Series really embraces an Overwatch format, presenting each of the game's 12 vehicles as a different personality and build.
