Watch Dogs 2 has created an immersive world, disturbingly close to the real one. It’s still a fictitious San Francisco, but sometimes it’s difficult to tell which bits are made up. With rich, in depth missions, colourful characters, and fun open world gameplay, this might just be the best game I’ve played this year.
Another year, another outstanding sports title
For a more arcade-style (but surprisingly deep) baseball game , check out our review of Super Mega Baseball! - Ed.
I suppose, if I was trying to find a flaw and be picky, I would say that Child of Light feels like an incredibly good mobile game. But really that's such a minor criticism, I can't even put any weight behind my statement.
Overall, Super Time Force is "Super Timely Fun!". Gunning and running and meeting up with your past selves to cause as much destruction as you can.
Titanfall is just so full of things. The world is beautiful and detailed, the maps are detailed and confusing, the giant robots have plenty of places to hide. Take your time to drink it all in as the bullets zing around and into you.
I finally got to live out my dream of being very tall.
In terms of story, while there is an abundance of nested fetch quests they do feel important. There's no "why on earth is Ripley doing this?!" Ripley is always trying to escape almost from the instant she gets onboard.
We're still left with a good RPG, but one that's held back somewhat by tedious quest design and an overreliance on sexist cliches.
[T]he DLC is actually a fair amount of fun.
This game has set me on the path to becoming a basketball fan.
Assassin's Creed Origins shakes up the series' combat, loot, and progression, while retaining the atmosphere, impressive open world, and historical bent that has made the franchise so beloved.
Overall, this is a pretty good game. There was a lot of what seemed like Resident Evil in-jokes and nods to previous games that went over my head, but nothing that was required to understand the story. It was a fairly enjoyable romp through a monster killing field with a decent storyline. And really, want more do you want from Resident Evil?
In this sense The Evil Within becomes less of a game and more of a haunted house ride, where you just roll with the changes and wait for the scares.
Overall though, it's a fun new game mode. And for Killzone - it's an interesting experience working as a squad, rather than a group of individuals. There is no question that you'll need to work together to win the game.
"Wow that little guy sounds like Barry White!"
I feel also that Tengami is a game that would be better played on a tablet, to give you a sense of actually turning the pages, of discovering what's inside this magical book. At certain times, if you go exploring, you can find the edge of the book.
Overall, DR3 is fun game with awesome amounts of zombie smashing but it also has a bunch of annoying things which distract from the aforementioned smashing.
The games are probably a bit too young to be considered retro or nostalgic, (Infinite is only three years old), but they do bring with them a lot of fond memories. If you’ve never played them before, the series feels fresh and new. As a set the games compliment each other and, while not a trilogy, the stories are intertwined – even if only by a common idea. This collection may become a must have for new console owners.
