VG247's Reviews
Dynasty Warriors 9 is a perfect example of why you should be careful what you wish for.
Pac-Man Championship Edition 2 remains exhilarating fun, but some of its new additions prove bigger doesn't always equal better.
The sense of speed is akin to watching Bruce Lee flail his nunchucks about while high on amphetamines.
I am sitting cross-legged in a watchtower, praying the crew searching for me doesn't realise I'm here.
Ever since Far Cry 3, Ubisoft's open-world series has been about the bad guys.
Detective Pikachu doesn't offer an enormous amount of actual game to play, but what's there is hugely charming and entertaining.
There's a scene in God of War where Kratos decapitates someone to free them from a magical cage within the mangled roots of a tree.
The story of Kazuma Kiryu is over.
Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze may be a simple port, but if you didn't own a Wii U this title is a must-buy.
Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire, within the first couple of hours, contains the phrase "Cannon-fucking your boat to sodden splinters." Pirates might not make everything better – you wouldn't invite them to a booze-free wedding – but they've done wonders in Obsidian's RPG sequel.

The first episode of The Walking Dead's final season is an excellent start, but that's usually the case.
If Blizzard manages to keep up the momentum it has built here, the future's looking strong for the ruling monarch of the MMORPG. I'm not entirely sure who's looking at World of Warcraft after fourteen years and only now deciding to jump in. But if you are, you'd be hard-pressed to find a better time than right now.
A strong port and the best way to play these flawed yet brilliant classics
