Nick Gillham's Reviews

Nick is an avid video game entusiast and has been since his mum first allowed him to play on the Atari 2600 she never touched. To this day he's had the pleasure of playing on a vast array of different gaming machines. He's a recovering WoW-holic and when he's not playing games he's talking about games, reading about games, writing about games, watching videos about games, watching his son play games or chatting rubbish on Twitter. A lover, not a fighter and an all round good guy (he would say that, he wrote this after all), he's happy to be here as part of GIAG.
9 / 10.0 - Muse Dash

Easy to pick up, hard to put down. Muse Dash is a brilliant slice of musical goodness.

I won't tell any lies here, Telling Lies is another excellent piece of narrative game design from Sam Barlow and I sincerely hope there's more to come

9 / 10.0 - Minecraft
May 18, 2017

Releasing Minecraft on the Switch was a real no brainer for Microsoft, the game has found a natural home and is worth yet another purchase.

8.5 / 10.0 - Rocket League
Nov 17, 2017

Rocket League on Switch is a bit like Sloth from The Goonies, it's ugly, but it's lovable and gets the job done.

It's been a year, and the coming of The Taken King has finally made Destiny the game it always should have been.

Transformers Devastation is a fantastic love letter to G1 Transformers fans, and a great game in its own right.

8.5 / 10.0 - Night in the Woods
Mar 2, 2017

Witty, smart and great to look at, there are many worse ways to spend your time than a Night in with Night in the Woods.

Not the longest or hardest game ever, but it’s a thoroughly good time while it lasts.

Minor crinkles can’t stop Paper Mario from being a frankly excellent experience and one that you, yes you, should play.

8.5 / 10.0 - I Am Setsuna
Jul 19, 2016

Neither original nor groundbreaking, but if you’re one of those people who want a 90s style JRPG on home systems, then I Am Setsuna is the game for you.

8.5 / 10.0 - Worms W.M.D
Nov 23, 2017

Loading times are a minor niggle though, and while the single player does fall a little bit flat it does a good job of educating you on weapon usage and game mechanics. But, let's face it, multiplayer is where Worms has always shined and it's no different here. Get a bunch of friends together and duke it out; it gets a bit chaotic with more than four people playing, but with friends chaos is fun.

Put aside any misconceptions you may have about the idea of re-selling old games in shinier coats, this is no lazy rehash and it was always a dang fine game to boot!

Jul 26, 2017

Hey! Pikmin isn't a long game but throughout it'll capture your heart just as regularly as Olimar captures Pikmin.

An excellent reimagining of an age old title, it's great to see Samus back after such a long hiatus, please don't go away for so long again.
