7 / 10.0 - How We Soar (VR)
Dec 15, 2016

There's a lot of potential, but it would be much cooler with dragons. And fire.

If senpai doesn’t notice you, give Kokurase a call.

7.2 / 10.0 - Steep
Dec 13, 2016

A jarring contrast between epic beauty and controller destroying frustration.

Dec 12, 2016

Celebrate Xmas by skewering zombies with a swordfish. Mindless, stupid fun.

Dec 9, 2016

Ten years is a long time, but Final Fantasy XV is well worth the wait.

A heartfelt journey that's much more than the sum of its parts.

Completely self-supporting; and that’s okay.

I still don’t understand why the storm has teeth.

If you want to dive into it, there’s plenty of depth when it comes to customising and perfecting your party. That’s one of the reasons why, as much as World of Final Fantasy is a game aimed at Final Fantasy fans, it has enough to appeal to people who’ve never played the series before as well. You could strip away all the Final Fantasy-ness, and you’d still be left with a captivating monster-collecting game with an intriguing story, deep RPG and collecting mechanics, and a robust battle system. This game is a wonderful celebration of all things Final Fantasy that won’t just entice old fans, but will also create a whole generation of new ones as well.

Three games for the price of one is a great buy, but be prepared for shoddy looking characters.

Paints a beautiful picture, but it’s a small one.

A tale about evil, but not as you know it.

Sort of like that dream you had once about being a bird, but with more feather collecting and fish.

Does what it sets out to - just don’t expect a revolution, Dance Dance or otherwise.

Challenging, immersive, and fun, Dishonored 2 hits the mark in all the right places. A masterpiece.

9.7 / 10.0 - Watch Dogs 2
Nov 14, 2016

Watch Dogs 2 has created an immersive world, disturbingly close to the real one. It’s still a fictitious San Francisco, but sometimes it’s difficult to tell which bits are made up. With rich, in depth missions, colourful characters, and fun open world gameplay, this might just be the best game I’ve played this year.

Fun, but too much emphasis on ‘sandbox’ rather than a narrative that would justify monthly episodes.
