Mick Fraser's Reviews
Aer is a pretty game, but ultimately there's little to do and not much to compel you on
An entertaining game for kids best enjoyed in short bursts
Young children are going to find plenty to keep them invested with or without it. It looks lovely and there's lots to do, but it feels a little safe by today's standards.
An adventure that will only appeal to people who really miss the old ways
Transcripted is a fun game with some nice ideas, but it'd be far more at home on a tablet or handheld without all the boring dialogue.
A cool shooter with some great ideas - we just wish there was more of it to begin with
Fun and frustrating, often in equal measure, Ruiner is polished to a high shine but still won't appeal to everyone.
A fantastic expansion to an excellent game, Dishonored: Death of the Outsider is a macabre joy to play from start to finish.
Big, bright, bold, and bursting with content and heart.
Obsidian's modern masterpiece is less shiny on console, but still a sprawling RPG worth exploring
Not the most thrilling game, but a powerful, well-told story nonetheless
The Saints Row vibe is strong, but Volition's latest is still a brilliantly bonkers blast-fest
Dovetail Games have produced a solid fishing game with intuitive controls that might just be a little too sedate for some.
A solid effort from CI Games, Ghost Warrior 3 is a series-best, but hamstrung by long load times and a dull story.
Dead Rising 4 is a lot of fun, but the challenge and tension that made the first few games so unique are dead and buried.
The Dwarves is hard to recommend to any but the most diehard RPG fan, due to poor combat and terrible performance.
An arbitrary remaster collection that fails to do justice to the memory of the originals.
A masterful re-up with a great story, a beautifully grim world and exciting, fast-paced gameplay. And that price point makes it essential.
So much freedom leads to inevitable bugs and AI glitches, but this is still a tremendously fun and empowering stealth-em-up.
Quest, hunt, explore, get married, build a house, invest in property, slaughter entire villages – it’s up to you how you spend your time in the frozen north, and it’s absolutely worth a repeat visit.
