6 / 10 - Betrayer
Apr 18, 2014

It's worth sticking with Betrayer to see through the devilish tales told by the NPCs and watch the conclusion come to a puzzling end, but most might find the trip a sour sweet hidden by a sugar coating.

5 / 10 - Daylight
May 10, 2014

It's a shame that Daylight has turned out to be fairly average, because the title has the atmosphere, the creepily produced audio, some promising ideas, and initial jump scares, but the overall package is brought down by issues with gameplay, its focus on random design, clichéd story and unoptimised performance.

7 / 10 - NES Remix 2
May 12, 2014

NES Remix 2 is a fun title that lets Nintendo fans reminiscent about the past greats on Nintendo's first home console without having to play the whole game or dig out old hardware to bring back those fond memories. So, Nintendo, how about that SNES Remix?

This mixture makes it one of my favourite MMOs of the last couple of years and one that certainly goes into my top three of all time.

With better MMORPGs already out there and seemingly more great ones coming, The Elder Scrolls Online is using the name to appeal to its large fan base, and I have no doubt some will enjoy, but for the rest, this game is an vacillating anomaly in a packed market.

The game isn't bad, it's just not great, and I was expecting a little bit more than a generic western fantasy RPG with competent combat from the studio that brought us the tantalising Of Orcs and Men.

If you're looking for great gunplay, an amazing visualised alternative Nazi ruled 1960s with a surprisingly good and appealing plot, and of course, want to shoot Nazis in the way of the old school, then Wolfenstein: The New Order is just what the doctor ordered.

It's not quite up there with the best in the business, but NeocoreGames should be happy with the steps they are taking to get there, and I have trust that Van Helsing III will be even better. Fans of the genre should fully enjoy what is on offer here, and newcomers who are looking for a few days of cooperative fun –  problems with pacing and small glitches aside – should gather some friends and sit back and enjoy a few evenings of Victorian dungeon crawling – it's finger clicking good.

7 / 10 - Space Run
Jul 1, 2014

This is a game worthy of your time for anyone who is tired of the genre or just wants to play something a bit different.

It's a shame that some pieces aren't as well designed or constructed, but with a limited market aimed for sniper players, there's really no way of putting it other than Sniper Elite III is the smartest and best sniper game money can buy. Now it just needs to step up to the plate and become more.

Hopefully that time will come, but for the latest One Piece video game, there is enough here to feel like you've had your worthwhile, you'll just wish that the final product was more masterfully crafted than what's on offer here.

Either way, no matter which version of The Last of Us you play, it still remains one of the best exclusive titles for Sony and one of – if not THE – greatest games of the last generation.

6 / 10 - Sacred 3
Aug 7, 2014

Sacred 3, as you can establish from this review, is a game that has moved away from its predecessor's roots to become more of a brawler with light RPG elements.

Console players of Diablo III are in for such a good time with Diablo III: Ultimate Evil Edition.

8 / 10 - Metro Redux
Aug 27, 2014

If you have never played the games, then this is outstanding value for money for two great first-person shooters with an amazing setting, brilliant atmosphere, fantastic graphics and solid gun combat.

Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate allows newcomers to see the start of the improvements to the Warriors series, which at one point was suffering from its own lack of ambition, and turn itself into a worthwhile hack and slash addict's wet dream.

Simply put, Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor is the best game based on The Lord of the Rings licence that brings solid combat, good sneaking mechanics and joyful side content, but above all, brings an innovating mechanic to the table that is so often hard to do in this current gaming climate.

Defense Grid 2 is more Defense Grid, meaning that this is one of the better entries in the genre that you can currently pick up on Steam. It brings back everything fans liked about the first title, while coming up with mechanics that ease the stress of failure that can come with the genre.

6 / 10 - Ancient Space
Oct 19, 2014

Some fans will find things to like about Ancient Space, but its gameplay isn't as infinite as the depths of space that surrounds us.

Endless Legend offers one of the more refreshing entries in the genre, and it will destroy your sense of time and disrupt your sleeping pattern. This should be a sign to anyone that Endless Legend is not only a successful turn-based strategy title, but also a great game.
