Ultimately the Amnesia Collection feels caught between essential and outdated

8.4 / 10.0 - The Surge 2
Sep 23, 2019

The Surge 2 keeps what was great about the first game and improves upon it many times over. It still has some issues but The Surge 2 is an incredibly enjoyable, hugely playable game

6.2 / 10.0 - NBA 2K20
Sep 23, 2019

I’m tired of complaining about this game but it’s a big no from me. While the gameplay is still classic NBA 2K, this iteration has nothing new or exciting going for it.

6.6 / 10.0 - Niffelheim
Sep 23, 2019

Niffelheim is a deep and complex survival game that offers a wealth of gameplay and longevity. Though how long you ultimately spend playing it depends on how easy it is for you to overcome its flaws.

8.7 / 10.0 - Untitled Goose Game
Sep 20, 2019

Untitled Goose Game is an absolute masterpiece. Those few hours you spend as the world’s most obnoxious Goose are some of the best you’ll ever spend gaming.

Playing Link’s Awakening is so simple that anyone can do it and everyone SHOULD do it. It’s that good.

The bones of a great game exist within the second entry, even today, but lop-sided gameplay and uninspired presentation obscure them far too much.

Unscored - Daemon X Machina
Sep 10, 2019

So far, Daemon X Machina has a lot of promise. The combat is a lot of fun and gets increasingly better as you fight bigger and smarter enemies.

Pillars of Eternity on Switch is my favourite way to play the game and it's yet another great reason to own a Switch.

6.9 / 10.0 - Damsel
Sep 9, 2019

There’s lots to love about Damsel and on Switch, it’s perfectly suited to playing on the train, tram or backseat of the car

7.9 / 10.0 - GreedFall
Sep 9, 2019

In some ways, Greedfall has the makings of a classic. It has all of the pieces of the puzzle, but there's just not enough of them or perhaps the puzzle just isn't complex enough.

Monster Hunter: World – Iceborne is everything a Monster Hunter: World veteran could want – more monsters, harder fights and of course more options for weapons and armour.

8.1 / 10.0 - Gears 5
Sep 3, 2019

Gears 5, is a decent addition to the franchise. Fans will love the story and lore and will equally enjoy the combat. It doesn’t reinvent the COG but then again, it doesn’t have to.

Age of Wonders: Planetfall takes a tried and tested formula, and flips it on its head. I can appreciate the guts it takes to strike out and try something different to what you’ve done before, even if others have already trodden that way before.

Sep 2, 2019

After playing this I’ve decided that I’m not a fan of scary games. If you are, boy do you have a treat here?!

Final Fantasy 8 Remastered is exactly what it is supposed to be; a great updated release of a classic JRPG with a unique battle system that will please old fans and hopefully create a whole lot of new ones.

I like Space Invaders, so I like Doughlings Invasion. The RPG touches and variety of enemies add a little something extra to the mix

I honestly can't fault Catherine: Full Body and if you're a proponent of games as art then this is definitely a game for you. It's a stunning achievement and one that I'm glad to have played through.

The shorter narrative and anthology presentation suits the title better than a standalone full-priced title
