Predator: Hunting Grounds isn’t a terrible game. Not at all. But it’s just not good enough.
If you can look past the few technical issues – which can hopefully be ironed out with a patch – you’ll find a worthwhile story about overcoming loneliness and self-doubt, cherishing your friendships and rediscovering who you are.
If you’re a fan of JRPGs you’ll find a lot to like here. It looks great, it’s easy to play, and it’s not the longest slog in the world – you’ll see the credits roll in about 20 hours. Sure, there are a few frustrations, but it remains true to the Mana series and overall provides an enjoyable – if a little uninspiring – adventure for fans of the genre.
With a beautiful marriage of puzzles, story, graphics and sound, Deliver Us the Moon is a unique exploration game that anyone with a fascination with space will enjoy.
Take nostalgia out of the equation, and Streets of Rage 4 is the best entry in the series yet.
Truckin’ ain’t easy but if you jump into SnowRunner’s driver’s seat, you’re in for a great ride.
As far as party games go, Moving Out is one of the best of recent years.
Gears Tactics is the best Gears of War game since the original trilogy came to a close.
A unique combination of genres, Sakura Wars is ultimately a compelling adventure that’s greater than the sum of its parts.
Lacklustre animation aside, Pirates Outlaws is a great addition to the strategy card game genre.
All in all, MotoGP 20 is undoubtedly the best MotoGP game yet.
All things considered, then, Obey Me is… fine.
Heal isn’t a long game; it’ll likely take you only a couple of hours to reach its conclusion, with a pause to shout at that one frustrating puzzle. But you’ll still be engrossed by this OAP’s otherworldly outing.
I wouldn’t go as far as calling Hot Garbage, well, hot garbage. But it’s certainly not great, and it’s somewhat tarnished my otherwise excellent experience with Journey to the Savage Planet.
Needless to say, if you enjoyed The Division 2 and are looking for more content to stick your teeth into, consider The Division 2: Warlords of New York an essential purchase.
Stick to Left 4 Dead in the meantime; Resident Evil Resistance is better left buried until its developers have reanimated it with some much-needed updates.
Final Fantasy VII Remake is the best JRPG from Square since Final Fantasy VII.
There are a few highlights, but Disaster Report 4: Summer Memories has so many rough edges, broken mechanics and frustrating, counter-intuitive elements that it’s anything but memorable.
Perhaps I was just extra-emotional while playing, but few games have had the impact on me that Lost Words: Beyond The Page has.
Few Rogue-like games have grabbed my attention quite like HyperParasite has.
