Layers of Fear Legacy is a decent enough horror experience, but it’s for horror fans only.

5.7 / 10.0 - Crackdown 3
Feb 14, 2019

Unfortunately, gamers have moved on. Crackdown 3 hasn't.

While Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair is a decent copy of a Donkey Kong Country it's not a patch on the real thing.

5.8 / 10.0 - Far Cry: New Dawn
Feb 13, 2019

For the full asking price, I certainly can't recommend Far Cry New Dawn, especially not with its weak narrative and uninspired take on the post-apocalypse.

Being inspired by and ripping off is a fine line and Lies of P does not tread it well.

Starfield is a less interesting Fallout in space with some serious design issues. It’s still very playable and easy enough to pick up and play for short bursts but it certainly doesn’t have the staying power of Skyrim or Fallout 3. It simultaneously tried to do too much and does too little.

Under the right circumstances and with the right people (and possibly the right alcohol) Samba de Amigo: Party Central is a smash.

6 / 10.0 - Redfall
May 2, 2023

Redfall is not the second coming of first-party AAA games on Xbox and it was never going to be. It's an average co-op shooter with half-baked ideas that never fully come together. It's fun for a few minutes but it wears thin very quickly. Give it a try on Game Pass but don't expect too much.

Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate is decent, but it’s a case of been there, done that. Only fans need apply

Sushi Striker is a decent puzzle game with an odd and somewhat charming theme. It’s not for everyone, but if you’re looking for something quick and easy to play on the move, this will definitely fit the bill.

A massive, hard strategy game, Nobunaga’s Ambition: Sphere of Influence – Ascension is a hard sell for anyone other than the devoted strategy fan

6.1 / 10.0 - Resident Evil 3
Mar 31, 2020

Resident Evil 2 set the standard for videogame remakes in 2019. Resident Evil 3 should serve as a cautionary tale for the pitfalls of videogame remakes in 2020.

6.1 / 10.0 - V-Rally 4
Sep 19, 2018

There are plenty of great moments to be had and the racing, at times, is first class. After such a long break it’s great to have V-Rally back. Hopefully we don’t have to wait as long for the next one.

Ultimately, let down by a lacklustre combat system that is far too repetitive and frequent, Paper Mario: The Origami King is only... ok. It's still worth playing for the wonderful visuals and excellent storytelling but don't expect a true Mario RPG.

6.3 / 10.0 - Rage 2
May 12, 2019

Rage 2 feels like a game from 10 years ago and I'm still not sure whether that's a compliment or an insult. It's certainly not the worst game you'll play, but it's never going to be the best.

6.5 / 10.0 - Dead Space (Remake)
Jan 27, 2023

In the moment-to-moment gameplay, it literally feels identical, but that's because it is. Anything new in Dead Space doesn't enhance the experience, it detracts from it. So, we're left with a worse version of a game that looks vastly superior.

If you’re after mini-games, you’re better off playing Super Mario Party, but Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 is a close second.

Degrees of Separation has a great hook that it, unfortunately, squanders through mindless, repetitive puzzle solving.

The visuals and audio are excellent and the gameplay is challenging and rewarding. If only it were easier to find your way around.

6.5 / 10.0 - WarioWare Gold
Aug 15, 2018

By and large, WarioWare Gold is a great collection of microgames with some funny moments and an oddly charismatic Wario. It’s certainly much better than Game & Wario
