Telegraph's Reviews
It’s a game to savour and talk about for years to come, one that left me, just like the inhabitants of Kingdom, Virginia, speechless.
Gorgeous adventure ten years in the making sets the bar sky-high
Lara Croft's latest adventure is a smart, alluring thrill-ride through Siberia.
Team Ninja's Nioh is the kind of action game that comes along every once in a rare while.
The action is superb, the story is one of gaming's best, the atmosphere and tone are easy to get lost in, and the soundtrack is a marvel, with the end game credits song being one of the best in existence.
As you move around the country and the gang's predicament shifts, the complexion of both game and narrative can change to a startling degree. It is nothing if not carefully considered.
This is another flourish of a fighting game that is big on style. There is a saunter and character to its roster, to its stages that fizz and crumble under the weight of battle, it is kinetic and fun and easy to get into. And it might just be your new favourite fighting game... even if you have never played one before.
Stories Untold is a gloriously 80s homage which doesn't rely on too much familiarity or retreading old ground. It's a fantastic, fascinating example of interactive visual storytelling.
Mario Kart 8 is as deliriously entertaining as it was when it was released three years ago.
It's a personal, singular experience that everyone can take part in, and with all my heart, I hope you do.
From Destiny 2's first moments, it's a bigger, bolder and better game than its predecessor.
Wolfenstein 2, a first person shooter in which you can dual-wield shotguns to slaughter hundreds of robotic fascists in a secret Nazi facility suspended above the surface of Venus, is the most skilfully written game in years.
With F1 2017, Codemasters has reached that stable plateau you see from established sports franchise like FIFA or NBA. This is by no means a major overhaul – if you've bounced off of these types of racers before, F1 2017 won't try to re-convince you of any merits. But nor should it need to.
Any issues melt away as you leap whooping from your seat, punching the air after you slay a giant beast while on your last sliver of health. In Monster Hunter: World, those heart-pounding epiphanies happen with thrilling regularity.
In 2005 Shadow of the Colossus was a masterpiece and that remains so in 2018. This is one of the greatest games ever made and is an accolade that shows no sign of being detached from its monumental presence.
One of the most gorgeous, spectacular and impactful blockbusters of the generation
As a card-carrying member of the single-player society, it was with some trepidation I dived into Call of Duty:
It’s stylish. It’s cool. It’s supremely fun, fluid and rewarding.
Few games task you so harshly or dare to drive you to such frustration, but few games are as rewarding or exhilarating when you succeed.
Labelling this new version of Capcom's survival-horror classic a 'remake' somehow feels like an curious understatement.
