Impulsegamer's Reviews

For combat strategy fans who revel in difficulty and challenge, this game is a fantastic opportunity to perfect your tactics. The missions are long, complicated and will require multiple attempts to earn those all important medals and sense of accomplishment. For those short of patience or who don't like repeating missions, the basic graphics, poor storyline, and limited music will keep you away.

4.5 / 5.0 - American Fugitive
Jun 13, 2019

Like a spiritual successor to GTA2 American Fugitive will see you running afoul of the law with a touch of Dukes of Hazard thrown in.

A focus shift from the main character to an important supporting character helps to flesh out the world and story whilst giving the player a change of pace.

1.8 / 5.0 - House Flipper
Jun 10, 2019

House flipper's formulaic play style is quickly exhausted, leaving you with nothing but the memory of the time you wasted playing it.

4.5 / 5.0 - Observation
Jun 4, 2019

Overall it’s a fresh change from the standard jump scare, or shooter mechanic that we have so much of today. It’s a compelling story and one worth putting some time into puzzle solving to uncover.

I thoroughly enjoyed A Plague Tale: Innocence from start to finish and cannot fault this title at all. While the gameplay is fluid that is accompanied by excellent graphics and audio, where A Plague Tale – Innocence shines is with its characters and the way it tells their story. So if you're upset at how Game of Thrones ended and need a story that is told correctly, A Plague Tale – Innocence does that flawlessly.

Angry Birds Vr: Isle of Pigs is just the "you are there" ticket for a fast step in and out of a game distraction with the fun twist of VR.

Sniper Elite V2 gets a remaster but the changes might be as easy to spot as a sniper in a ghillie suit.

Still and if you're desperate for sniping on the go…then Sniper Elite V2 Remastered  is perhaps your only choice. Plus, it does feature all of the title's DLC. I would, however, wait for a price drop and/or enter with lowered expectations.

3.5 / 5.0 - Rage 2
May 20, 2019

Over all, Rage 2 is a good game, but not worth buying if you’re already an established fan of open world games.

If you are a fan of point-and-click RPG, hilarious storytelling, or you would like to try a point and click for the first time, then you really can’t go passed this game. It is brilliantly written, carefully designed and put together; and most of all, seriously brilliant satire.

Final Fantasy XII The Zodiac Age is great. It was great in 2017 on the PS4. It’s greater now on the Switch. It looks amazing and the frame rate is consistent in the dock and in handheld.

3.4 / 5.0 - Bus Simulator 18
May 15, 2019

It takes a certain kind of person to enjoy driving a bus for hours. This is as close to the real thing as you can get!

Swords of Ditto: Mormo's Curse addresses many of the issues that plagued the original release. It also runs great on the Switch.

4.2 / 5.0 - Days Gone
May 8, 2019

Days Gone offers fun open-world exploration and survival-horror gameplay elevated by a compelling post apocalypse narrative and top-notch presentation.

Overall it's a very solid packaged. Both games are fantastic in their own way and still hold up. The feature upgrades available in Final Fantasy VII and Final Fantasy IX are nowhere to be found when they would have been most welcome. Considering the upcoming Final Fantasy XII remaster also contains these features makes this package stand out all the more. It is also a steep price point. Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster may include two full games, but charging $80 seems a little ridiculous. Despite this it still comes highly recommended. Maybe just wait for a sale first.

1.8 / 5.0 - Fade to Silence
May 3, 2019

All things said and done Fade to Silence is not a game that will inspire you to keep playing it. There are just too many issues with graphics, control and hit box contacts. It looks and feels clunky, and I am not sure it can be saved with a patch any time soon. Sadly I would suggest that eventually this game will do what its title suggests; Fade to Silence.
