82 / 100 - Atomfall
Mar 21, 2025

Rebellion have tried something different with Atomfall and have brought a really good game to us. Maybe it lacks direction, but that's where the developers have gone with this and there will players that absolutely love this.

100 / 100 - Split Fiction
Mar 14, 2025

Hazelight Studios have continued to expand their portfolio over the years and we have seen their co-op games become increasingly popular and with good reason, they are fun, easily accessible and incorporate visual storytelling in a co-op game, something that is rarely seen if at all and even when it is it usually isn't done well. Split Fiction is a game that had taken my expectations and exceeded them massively.

83 / 100 - WWE 2K25
Mar 14, 2025

WWE 2K25 builds on last years foundations, with increased polish and upgrades to provide an experience that plays better than last years whilst trying out some fresh new modes. The Island probably needed another years work for a more seamless, enjoyable playthrough.

‘Monster Hunter Wilds’ is one of the best games in the franchise to date. Excellent combat that has never felt better, thanks to the ability to aim attacks. A plethora of quality of life adjustments making the game more accessible for new players and more convenient for veterans. The new assortment of monsters are both originally designed and fun to fight. It’s narrative feels like a retread, but it’s rewarding end game will keep you engaged. Performance is questionable and sadly does effect the otherwise brilliant experience.

With some fantasic puzzles met with some fustrating level designs, control mechanics that are improved but still feel flawed (in modern) this is a release that will please fans itching for more expeditions. Aspyr have done a fantastic job fixing up the graphics and presentation of the game, to bring it upto a relatively sound PS3 looking title. Tomb Raider IV-VI remastered looks great in 4k and runs smoothly in 60fps.

Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii doesn't take itself too seriously, the story is light-hearted and some of the characters you come across are ridiculous, but in a good way, you can also find moments throughout the game that can increase the bond between Majima and his crew. In the beginning the game can feel a little repetitive, but the world soon opens up when you get your ship, and with the introduction of subplots to complete, mini-games to play and treasure to find there is always something to do if you want to take a break from the main story.

85 / 100 - Two Point Museum
Feb 25, 2025

A brilliant business management game in setting that I don't believe has been tackled before. Quirky exhibits and museums really add to the game. 'Two Point' does expect a little bit too much involvement for some exhibits. All in all a great tycoon game giving that 90's gameplay with modern day quality of life.

60 / 100 - RPG Maker WITH
Feb 21, 2025

While I will always advocate playing the PC versions of RPG Maker due to being more user friendly and allowing you to import your own resources as console limits this, I would say if you wanted to give making your own RPG on console a go, I would opt for RPG Maker MV over RPG Maker WITH as it feels closer to a PC Maker and is more user friendly but on console that is a hardly a great statement to stand by.

Trails Through Daybreak II is a slightly disappointing sequel to the first part into the Trails through Daybreak story arc. While I enjoy the character building and grinding the optional dungeon to unlock everything the game has to offer, the campaign itself feels bloated and seeing the same scene and rewinding time overstays its welcome long before the game would reach its conclusion.

I loved every moment of Dynasty Warriors: Origins and it’s an amazing return to form for the franchise that defines a genre and I can’t recommend it enough, I’d wholly recommend taking charge go the battle field and indulging in the romance of the three kingdoms in the best way Omega Force and Koei Tecmo know how, unrelenting 1 vs 1000 action.

Momodora: Moonlit Farewell may certainly be its final farewell but it is one that has gone out with a bang! If Bombservice plan to bring a new game to us in the future then I am all for it.

Nintendo serve us up yet another helping of Donkey Kong Country Returns HD. Whist it doesn't feel like a full remaster, it still plays well and has me pleading with Nintendo to make a full new DK game when the Nintendo Switch 2 arrives.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is a mastercraft of an RPG, delivering a hyper-accurate recreation of Medieval Bohemia that is oozing charm, finesse and style out of every pore. Featuring an enthralling open world, mastercrafted combat, a superb narrative laden with political intrigue and deception, all brought to life by an amazing score and soundtrack from the excellent Jan Valta that immerses you in the world like never before. You owe it to yourself to pick this one up, as it’s easily one of the greatest video games I’ve ever played.

Citizen Sleeper 2 is a simple and yet challenging game, with an in depth story full of interesting characters. The controls are easy to use and remember as they appear on the screen next to the actions they control. The management aspect of the game is beautifully done, and the addition of the stress system and permanent penalties gives a need for caution and a real sense of risk to your actions.

Phantom Brave: The Lost Hero is a fun tactical JRPG with a great story and many systems to get to grips with for a fun pirate adventure, it may seem a bit complex for anyone not familiar and not all systems seem to be explained in depth, if at all, but once you get to grips with it theres a lot of fun to be had.

70 / 100 - FAIRY TAIL 2
Dec 21, 2024

Fairy Tail 2 is a good game but not spectacular. Anyone wanting to find a new JRPG having never delved into this series may have a good time but it's hard to recommend as this is for a niche audience, mainly those familiar with the Manga series. As a player who is not however the narrative was lost on me pretty early on and the gameplay didn't grip me enough to keep me interested enough to come back.

While Flint: Treasure of Oblivion had a few frustrating moments, I found the experience to be thoroughly enjoyable and a great pirate game, with an engaging story and a unique way of telling it.

Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered is a love letter to fans of the franchise, showcasing the love and passion that the community have for one of gaming’s most beloved, yet forgotten franchises. Featuring renewed textures & stellar performance, Raina Audron and Aspyr have reinvigorated two of the best games ever made for the modern audience, and even though the gameplay is a bit outdated and archaic, it doesn’t detract from what is arguably one of the greatest stories ever told.
