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.

4.2 / 5.0 - Mortal Kombat 11
Apr 30, 2019

Must-play for fans and newcomers looking for an in-depth fighting game with shamelessly over-the-top violence, time-travelling shenanigans, and creative ways to beat foes to a bloody pulp.

A great puzzling platform game that works perfectly either handheld or on the big screen with a bevy of levels that represent great value

That all being said, what a wonderful first release from Salix Games.  It may not have been overly hard to play, perhaps missing a few more side missions or puzzles and need refining of a few technical issues but it was a joy to play especially with the intriguing twist to finish the game.  For any fans of historical games or point and click adventures, I'm sure you will enjoy this game as much as I did and I genuinely look forward to what they will release in the future.

4 / 5.0 - Heaven's Vault
Apr 26, 2019

All in all, this game was quite fun to play and discover the secrets of the ancient language.  I enjoyed the freedom of choice and the flow-on effects of those choices.  This is a game for anyone who is interested in adventure games – it definitely would appeal to a wide-range of players.
