Read MoreLego Horizon, I suspect it is bit of a coup for Sony, getting Lego so on-board with their Horizon franchise.
Up until now Lego games have been reserved for the biggest of IPs, like Marvel, Lord of the Rings and Star Wars. And with a couple of caveats, I can say Lego: Horizon Adventures is a worthy entrant into this storied sub-genre of games, especially with how next-level gooooorgeous it is.
Read MoreStarship Troopers: Extermination was in early access on PC in 2023 and was officially released to console and PC in Oct 2024. This 2024 release however resulted in it being sent into the wild with a fatal weakness.
That being, the very similar Helldivers 2 arrived 6mths earlier, and Helldivers is better than Starship Troopers in every single imaginable way.
So, a tough place to start from.
Read MoreCall of Duty season rolls around again, its almost Christmas and that means its time for new Black Ops.
After a couple of years with Infinity Ward helming the charge through Modern Warfare territory, and let’s be fair the 2023 instalment should have been DLC and a multiplayer update.
It is refreshing to be back in the hands of Treyarch, which as a die hard Infinity Ward fan caught me by surprise.
Read More“Torn” is the word that comes to mind as I muse about Dragon Age: The Veilguard.
It is without question a fantastic game, and certainly a return to form for Bioware after many years of not being at their best.
Read MoreBig thanks again to guest writer, Nina. Who sat down to a few sessions of scares, before flitting off for a month long holiday in Thailand!
When Until Dawn first released back in 2015, it was quickly considered the best-in-class thriller of its kind, especially in the mainstream space.
It makes sense, then, that Sony would want to put out a next-gen version of the game.
Read MoreUntil the Fusion Pro Wireless controller dropped into my post box I can safely say I’ve never thought about how a controller could be a work of art. I’ve had customisable controllers in the past, but I never really got on with changing weights and sticks. It just all seemed so faffy.
Programming back buttons, yes, that’s something Ive been able to get behind, more so when you can transfer a stick click to a button press, especially when its right next to a lazy, redundant finger.
Read MoreIf you remember the good old days of 2002, and were a fan of real-time strategy games, chances are you played Age of Mythology, a classic RTS from Ensemble Studios.
Fast forward 22 years, and it’s back with Age of Mythology Retold, a remaster that slaps on a fresh coat of paint – using the graphics engine from Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition – and it does an excellent job for anyone feeling nostalgic for those RTS days of old.
Read MoreStudio Santa Monica’s God of War from 2018 is one of my favourite games in recent memory (despite what the dear editor of this esteemed site thinks of it), which they deftly followed up with God of War Ragnarok.
I sank numerous hours into the original game, featuring grizzled and rough-edged god Kratos (although he’s trying to find his softer side) and his son Atreus, and then did the same with the sequel in 2022.
