Mick Fraser's Reviews
Battlefield 2042 isn't a bad shooter, but to release in this quarter of this year it really needed to bring its A-game, and it hasn't done that.
Ultimately, Sniper Elite VR has the goods where it counts. If you can find the right level of comfort or, perhaps, the right position, the sniping is very good.
Red Solstice 2: Survivors is a decent game hindered by iffy AI, spiking difficulty, and a feeling of disconnect between player and game.
Hyperbrawl Tournament is an enjoyable enough sports game, but in its current state, it's a little bloodless and uninspired.
In an era where first person shooters continually push the envelope in terms of genre tropes, visuals and mechanics, Disintegration is a few years late and a few dollars short.
If you're able to ignore the hokey storyline and amateurish writing, Obey Me is a decent action game.
Fans of the original Talisman board game may find the Digital Edition enjoyable, but the fact that so many characters are locked behind microtransactions, and the overall experience often amounts to a high-speed gankfest, I find it hard to recommend Talisman to anyone but the hardcore fanbase.
Despite a nice aesthetic in the missions and a handful of interesting concepts, Conglomerate 451 just doesn't do quite enough to stand out and be noticed.
If you're a huge fan of The Dark Crystal you may get a kick from Age of Resistance Tactics, but it doesn't do nearly enough to stand out in a fairly busy genre
Despite some new ideas and a core gameplay loop that does its best to carry the experience, Anthem is ultimately a bit of a disappointment from BioWare
Thief of Thieves is a stylish stealth thriller let down by dodgy AI and a lack of real imagination
A lacklustre first offering that gets by on a few star turns and the same stirling gunplay.
A decent blast of fun let down by a slew of frustrating elements
An arbitrary remaster collection that fails to do justice to the memory of the originals.
This is an easy game to recommend to a certain type of gamer, one who hackers for retro stylings and borderline-unfair difficulty, but those who like a modern touch, it's unlikely to satisfy.
A brainless shooter that manages to be fun despite poor aesthetics and a host of technical issues.
An authentic enough adaptation, Mordheim is deliberately hard and borderline impenetrable to the initiated. Approach with caution.
Neither game really does anything wrong, but this remaster does nothing whatsoever to justify its existence, in some cases running worse than the originals.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance is vast and ambitious, but won't please everyone no matter how hard it tries.
A brainless slasher partially saved by a handful of good ideas and cathartic combat.
