Steve Wright's Reviews
While it’s great on your own, I’d imagine that those that can play the likes of Overcooked with loved one without wanting to murder them will be right at home.
All things considered, it’s still a polished and worthwhile affair, doing many things for many different people.
It’s polished beyond belief, offering immaculate sound design, tense highs and crushing lows. Speedrunners will have a field day with it, and I’m sure clever tactics will make for some choice livestreams. It’s trouble is that it follows so closely to Resident Evil 2, that it pales in comparison on nearly every front.
Hopefully, little tweaks like these – ones identified and eventually fixed by the likes of Overwatch – find their way into Bleeding Edge sooner than not.
Definitely a game that needs to be experienced rather than described
Darksiders Genesis truly surprised me
If you ignore the presentation, there’s something in here for dungeon crawl fanatics, but you’re better off going with something like Darksiders Genesis for a far more enjoyable experience.
Journey to the Savage Planet balances ridiculousness, humour, and exploration to present something that has really clicked with me.
While the original AO Tennis released in a horrendous state, the same isn’t true of AO Tennis 2.
Need for Speed Heat is ultimately enjoyable, an experience that can provide some high highs alongside some fairly low lows.
Set your expectations accordingly and Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 will likely provide some fun and frivolity as you eagerly await the real thing next year.
A bargain price benefits this remastered re-release; while it’s better without motion controls and a majority of uninspired mini-games, there’s not a terrible amount to do in the end.
Despite its annoyances, Luigi’s Mansion 3 is a hauntingly good time, packed with charm everywhere you look. As someone who has once dabbled in the franchise, I’m already hooked — I can imagine those already in love with Luigi (and Gooigi!) will find this a trick rather than a treat.
Afterparty should be commended for its diabolical sense of humour and elegantly crafted conversations. While it’s definitely the wrong time of year for additional playthroughs, I’m most certainly coming back when I find myself with some precious free time, slamming down some different drinks and picking new decisions just to see how things will play out in my newly-created alternate timeline.
The Outer Limits has something for everyone — like intricately designed RPGs that have come before it, I found myself plotting my next moves while at work or even playing hockey, desperate to get back into its world and continue my journey.
The bottom line is that Overwatch is easy to pick up and understand, and amazingly fun to play.
John Wick Hex is a no brainer. It’s a layered strategy game perfect for long sessions or short stints.
Despite the gimmicks, Concrete Genie is beautiful, endearing, charming and simply adorable.
All in all, Ghostbusters: The Video Game was great back in the day and remains the same in 2019.
This time around, Playtonic has swapped out the retro 3D stylings of the original for something that plays more like a Donkey Kong Country sequel, offering a variety of levels where skill and strategy are necessary to succeed.
