So far, Atomic Heart is a solid spin on the BioShock formula though it does seem to be a little lacking in cohesion. I'm not quite sure whether a more open-world approach really suits this style of gameplay and I'm not quite sold on the combat or the way it's been implemented. That being said, I'm still enjoying it and am looking forward to finishing it, so that's always a good sign. Stay tuned as we update our review and give Atomic Heart a final score over the next couple of days.
Wild Hearts is a game made for a very specific audience and one that I’m not part of.
Not everyone is going to be a fan of the changes and I'm certain many fans will be incensed with the way Blizzard has monetised Overwatch 2 but I'm also certain those some fans will be booting up the game on day one and playing until their eyeballs bleed. Overwatch is back and it's better than ever.
It appears there may be an endless number of things to do in Elden Ring and that's fine by me. I never want it to end.
So far, Daemon X Machina has a lot of promise. The combat is a lot of fun and gets increasingly better as you fight bigger and smarter enemies.
A complete and utter surprise package, RiME is brilliant.
Overall, Assassin's Creed: Mirage is a decent game in the series, but a largely forgettable one. After the dizzying heights of Odyssey and Valhalla, Mirage takes too much of a step back and relies too much on gameplay the series has long moved on from.
As a non-racer, I have been incredibly impressed by what's on offer. While I still prefer the open-world shenanigans and quirky Burnout-inspired Horizon series, I can see what's so appealing about these types of games thanks to this latest entry.
We Happy Few is a bad indie game masquerading as an AAA title. It’s not worth your time, nor your money. Avoid at all costs.
Death Stranding is not entertaining. As such, it fails as a video game, it fails as a narrative and it fails overall.
Overall, there is very little in Forspoken worth mentioning. Seemingly a product without any clear direction and with any and every idea allowed to be added, Forspoken is a muddled, boring, toneless mess.
It looks and plays like a mobile title, which is exactly what it is.
I had high hopes for No Straight Roads. Its rock v EDM plot with a city powered by music is certainly right up my alley but it never capitalises on its potential. This is one of 2020’s biggest letdowns and a game that will forever be remembered for what could have been.
Fans will get a kick out of seeing the update but everyone else would be better off giving this one a miss altogether.
The Deer God is a good exmaple of good intentions not coming to fruition
If you were hoping this would be the second coming of Dead Space, you’ll need to wait for next year’s remake.
Amongst the like of Super Mario Odyssey, Yooka-Laylee, Sonic Mania, Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy and even Cuphead, Super Lucky's Tale trails far behind. If you only own an Xbox One and are desperate for some platforming, then you'll have a decent time with Super Lucky's Tale
Pikuniku is not likely to be worth your time
Windbound had a tonne of potential but the finished product is more Titanic or The Perfect Storm than a soothing day at sea.
It's not that Brain Training Switch is a bad game it's just that it's not as relevant or interesting as it was over a decade ago. It's worth checking out if you want to test your Brain Age or as a gift for Grandman but there are plenty of better games you could be playing.
