Steve Wright's Reviews
Okay, but not great
If you’re after a cute time rather than a genre-defining one, this’ll work just fine.
While I’d love to see out the whole thing – the main story, not the time sink endgame – coop, it’s how The Division 2 performs as a single-player campaign that may ultimately decide how far I take this fight.
The traditions of survival horror have been modernised, resulting in something that's all-too-familiar yet always manages to keep you on your toes.
Touchdown's beam katana is back and will need to be recharged during combat.
At the end of the day, Darksiders 3 is four years too late and four years behind current game design.
That said, I mightn’t know the songs I’m dancing to, but Ubisoft’s done a wonderful job in picking upbeat, fun songs to dance to regardless. Like last year’s offering, Just Dance 2019 is an inoffensive, exercise conducive title fun alone or in pairs. If you want to boogie, consider it.
11-11 is a unique (and relatively inexpensive) title that’s worth picking up.
So far, Fallout 76 seems like a half-baked, early access entry, equal parts buggy as ugly
Those who’ve played Nintendo’s original Pokémon game(s) will find Let’s Go very familiar, from maps, to the original 151 Kanto Pokémon and even story beats.
There's not a lot to do in Spyro the Dragon
Otherwise, let’s put this one to bed: those who reveled in IO’s last Hitman title will delight in a return to Hitman 2 and those who gave the soft reboot a miss will find a pleasant surprise in this title. It’s hard to go wrong with Hitman 2.
As frustrating as the experience can be, there's a lot of enjoyment — and potential — to actually be had..
Super Mario Party has far more mini-games – and ones of higher quality, too – but it's too time-consuming and tedious to get into them. Couple that with Nintendo's (usual) aggressive hand-holding and the party fizzled out fast.
Forza Horizon 4 is delight to play, packed with incredible visuals, a colourful narrative, myriad customisation options, a star-studded soundtrack and a tremendous sense of style. It will easily keep any gamer engaged.
All of Stone's systems work to create a quirky little game with a bunch of things going for it and almost as many things that can detract from it.
It's not a normal movie in that the interactivity of a video game provides a personal connection to what's going on. It's not simply a video game because it plays with standard conventions, and — similar to standouts like Alan Wake — manages to leave you with more questions than answers. I might not need to play it again, but I sure as hell want to start discussing it.
There is a lot of difference between 18 and 19 — an improvement on the relative holding pattern that the franchise went into last year — but when you boil it right down, 5v5 hockey remains largely the same.
Shadow of the Tomb Raider is more of the same Tomb Raider experience we've known since 2013, and that's precisely why you should be making the trek to Paititi.
Spider-Man is a heroic masterpiece, and one certainly worth playing.
