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.
8 / 10.0 - Miitopia
Jul 27, 2017

Miis aren't for everyone, but Miitopia is easily the nicest and most accessible RPG ever made, and for that it deserves considerable praise.

Oct 19, 2017

Even if you're not a fan of bullet hell you should give Earth Atlantis a try, this really doesn't deserve to sink without a trace.

Sit down, fix yourself a stiff drink, and get ready to open up. The Red Strings Club is an establishment worth visiting.

8 / 10.0 - Octahedron
Apr 16, 2018

Octahedron can take a while to click, but once you're past the early stages and get over the denial of your abilities it really surprises with its inventiveness.

The team behind Olliolli try something new and produce a hit, Laser League could well be a new eSport darling.

Valkyria Chronicles IV's playbook is a beautifully illustrated, tactical delight.

8 / 10.0 - Pode
Jul 6, 2018

While Pode can be frustrating in it's lack of communication it is a rather beautiful thing when experienced with others.

8 / 10.0 - Danger Zone 2
Jul 21, 2018

It's great to see crashing as a major game mechanic back with a bang, Danger Zone 2 is the smash ‘em up we've been waiting for since PS2 era Burnout.

A very welcome return for Capcom's beloved mascot and a hope for a Sonic Mania-esque revival.

It's not going to be known quite yet if Life is Strange is essential, but early signs are that this sequel is going to be as good as season one was.

Bright, colourful and a lot of fun, Taiko no Tatsujin is a beat 'em up I can really get behind.

Get ready for adventure again with this bite sized extra episode for our pint-sized rambler, great value at the price of a London pint.

8 / 10.0 - PAWARUMI
Jul 24, 2019

How this hadn't been done before I will never know, but Pawarumi's melding of rock, paper, scissors to a shooter is quite frankly, a blast.

Sirlin Games' Fantasy Strike is looking to make pros out of all of us with a simple pick up and play style that hides considerable tactical depth.

A shorter episode, but still a good one. Life is Stranges continues to be hella good.

A decent stab at the Monster Hunter template, and a decent entry point for anyone considering the genre.

7.5 / 10.0 - LEGO Jurassic World
Jun 15, 2015

Not a change from the same old formula, but is that really a bad thing?

No longer a Tiger Woods game in name, but you do wish they had retained more of the older ideas. But while there's not much content here, it still plays a superb game of golf.

Dragon Quest Heroes is like watching TV shows on Dave. It's great at the time, but repeats itself all too often.
