Mel Hawthorne's Reviews

Mel is a London-based copywriter that has been writing about video games for a few years now. After growing up in Vienna, Austria she followed her dreams and moved to London. Said dreams took her through a few different jobs (which included working as a web developer, shopkeeper and translator) before she settled on what she really wanted to do – periodically anger video game fans by expressing her opinions on games through various online publications. When she’s not writing about video games, she’s probably playing them... or walking her dog in a park. Since that depends largely on the English weather, Mel has plenty of time to indulge in her favourite games. These include but are not limited to Ark: Survival Evolved, Skyrim, GTA V, and oddly enough, Amnesia: Memories. She loves Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit. She thinks Star Trek is way better than Star Wars and isn’t afraid to admit it – Live long and prosper!

Overall the game feels like a lot of ambition but sadly lacks in follow-through.

Valkyria Chronicles 4 is a solid game. One that provides plenty of challenge and is suitable for both established and new fans of the series.

if you like shooting down hordes of enemies and having to think tactically this is a great way to spend your time.

This racing simulator is good but not great. It’s a definite improvement over last years MotoGP17, but it isn’t all that it could be.

Strange Brigade is immensely fun, doesn’t take itself too seriously and allows wonderful interplay between the characters.

There are some flaws in Sinking City, but there is plenty of clever content to keep the player interested.

One Piece World Seeker is an interesting game. It’s just probably not quite what fans of the manga and anime were hoping for.
