Mar 24, 2017

Simply put, Dead Rising 4 is going to upset the serious hardcore fans of the series who have enjoyed its quirky mechanics over the years.

Nier: Automata is a brilliant, slick action RPG pumped with so many cool and distinct features, and a story that that I could keep talking about all day, but let's not spoil what should be experienced, nor bore everyone with mechanics and finish up the review with a final statement.

Berserk is a nice fit for Omega Force's Warrior/Musou series, but I was left a little disappointed that they took a step back with the gameplay.

In the end, while there is a flat story with a protagonist that lacks any real personality, they aren't big enough issues to spoil where it matters most.

As a fan of Warhammer 40,000, it's a shame that Space Hulk: Deathwing has these issues that impede what should have been a great game.

Yesterday Origins is straight up a point-and-click game as they come, bringing all the things from the old days of the genre and does nothing drastic to change from the norm.

Coming to the end with my final thoughts on Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2. Dimps has created a sequel to Xenoverse that doesn’t quite feel like a massive advancement in the series, but there is no doubt that this is a larger and more improved experience.

6 / 10 - Root Letter
Nov 15, 2016

As the first entry in Kadokawa Game’s attempt at a visual novel mystery, Root Letter does succeed in bringing a engrossing story that manages to throw in a few captivating revelations throughout its short tale.

In the end, Mantis Burn Racing manages to bring effortless controls and a superb handling model, while being an enjoyable skill-focused racer that gets by just fine with its lack of funky weaponry that often features in these top-down racers.

Supplying great fan service is certainly not an issue with World of Final Fantasy, but instead, its problems are with its throwaway plot and eventually unchallenging combat.

Adam Wolfe Episode 1: The Ancient Flame does well as an introduction, and does the right things to keep you clamming for more of its mystery.

7 / 10 - WRC 6
Oct 21, 2016

WRC 6 makes a good step in the right direction, but it has a slight problem – Dirt Rally being around affects my recommendation of the game for people looking for an authentic take on the motorsport.

5 / 10 - Guards
Oct 2, 2016

Guards is an okay game to sink some free time into that can bring a modest amount of fun, but its downfall is its restricted gameplay that could have been developed that bit more to flesh it out.

Seasons After Fall gets top marks for its pretty painted canvas visuals that are, sadly, the main attraction of the game.

8 / 10 - Chime Sharp
Sep 22, 2016

Chime Sharp builds upon the original Chime by stuffing it with more game modes and improving the presentation. The series once again brings a consolidation of simple, but addictive puzzle mechanics and a wonderfully pleasing dynamic soundtrack that combines together with the colourful visuals to deliver a challenging treat for anyone who likes a stimulating puzzle game with fantastic music.
