If you haven’t played either Bayonetta or Vanquish, now’s the best time. Despite the visuals showing their age at times, both games play brilliantly on an Xbox One X. Most importantly, the action is just as thrilling now as it was back in 2010.
Two Point Hospital on the Switch is an absolute delight. The humour is spot on and will keep you smiling, while the mounting challenge of each new hospital will keep you glued to this enjoyable simulator for hours on end
“If you set your expectations a little lower, then Warcraft 3 Reforged is a game worthy of your time and money. Sadly, for many of us out there, we were expecting a little more”
While audio issues stop it from reaching its full potential, The Suicide of Rachel Foster is a dark and intriguing walk-‘em-up that will keep fans of the genre on their toes. Just be ready to weather some frustrating technical problems to get to the good bits.
Patapon 2 Remastered suffers the same affliction that its forebearer did, it’s too true to its origin, and despite being a brilliant title, fails to engender itself a new audience. The heart is still there and beats strongly, but it’s missing a few key appendages in 2020.
Zombie killing is always better with friends and Zombie Army 4 doesn’t buck that trend. Don’t buy this if you lack playing partners but if you have some Zombie slaying mates it is a blast.”
This re-release might serve as the best opportunity for many prospective players to dip their toes in and discover a classic JRPG that in the current day, is still deserving of your time.
Overall JTTSP was a fun game that had me eagerly taking control of my unnamed explorer to further plumb the secrets AR-Y 26, and spend time just wandering around killing various alien creatures.
Layers of Fear isn’t trying to be anything that it isn’t. Know that you’re walking into, a horror story told in a way to let your imagination get the better of you and build an increasingly scary setting.
The Switch release of Oddworld: Strangers Wrath has proven that this is a game that is truly timeless. There is no doubt in my mind that it is cool to be odd.
AO Tennis 2 is a deep and rewarding simulation that offers much for the hardcore tennis fans. An initial difficulty wall will likely put a few players off, but for those that persist, there is a rewarding and deep game of tennis to be found.
everything Genesis does, it does quite well, and over the ~15-20 hour playtime (depending on how thorough you are) you’ll find it quite hard to identify moments of weakness. For existing and prospective fans alike, there’s much to love about Darksiders Genesis.
Bubble Bobble 4 retains lots of things you loved about the series but didn’t add a whole lot more. It’s over in the blink of an eye and its asking price isn’t justified
Contracts is a signal to the world that the Sniper Ghost Warrior franchise is no longer content on being a niche franchise. It is coming for the stealth big boys
Your mileage will depend on your tolerance for digging through layers of text, but if you can stomach that you will find a wonderfully satisfying zoo experience. Come for the cute animals and stay for the satisfaction and pride found in creating a thriving animal sanctuary.
Plants vs Zombies:Battle for Neighborville didn't have much marketing leading up to its release. Admittedly this might be the exact thing it was missing to make it fully enjoyable as there are hardly any players.
“A massive return to form for the long-running franchise. It is wonderful to find joy in a NFS game once again”
Luigi’s Mansion 3 continues to prove Luigi’s ability to be a leading man, even if he has to do household chores (badly) to be one. A pleasure from start to finish.
As a time capsule it’s wonderful but the 1998 issues it brings with it can’t help but relegate this 2019 take on Medievil to the middle of the pack.
Many expect things of Hideo Kojima, but it takes a degree of self-confidence to deliver something else instead. He left Konami because he wasn’t allowed to take the time and spend the money to make the game he wanted, so it is depressing to see Death Stranding make so many mistakes that appear on some level to be dictated by what people expect.
