Reviews[]
Game Title | Format | Reviewer | Pages | Pg No(s) | Rating (%) | Summary |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Doom | PC | Ben Griffin | 6 | 60-65 | 90 | Meaty multiplayer and a campaign that plays like a sustained electric shock. Eye wateringly fun. |
Total War: Warhammer | PC | Matt Elliott | 2 | 66-67 | 92 | A richly-crafted recreation of the Warhammer world and the best Total War game in years. |
Homefront: The Revolution | PlayStation 4 | James Nouch | 2 | 68-69 | 69 | An interesting but underwhelming take on the open-world shooter - novel but seriously janky. |
The Walking Dead: Michonne | PlayStation 4 | James Nouch | 1 | 71 | 70 | The miniseries format has its charm, but Michonne fails to live up to the superb franchise. |
Battleborn | PC | Ben Griffin | 2 | 72-73 | 62 | A chaotic, middling effort that should be low on your team-based shooter priority list. |
Overwatch | PlayStation 4 | Matt Sakuraoka-Gilman | 2 | 74-75 | 94 | Simply the best multiplayer shooter to come along in years. Pure, joyous fun. |
Stellaris | PC | Robin Valentine | 2 | 76-77 | 90 | A stunning first step into space for strategy's superstars - and a great gateway to their other games. |
Shadow of the Beast | PlayStation 4 | Keith Andrew | 1 | 78 | 55 | Unfortunate proof that the classics of old don't always hold up well when dropped into the modern day. |
Shadwen | PlayStation 4 | Matt Clapham | 1 | 79 | 37 | Repetitive, buggy, and hamstrung by underbaked design, Shadwen feels like an unfinished product. |
Koi | PlayStation 4 | Jen Simpkins | 1 | 80 | 52 | N/A |
Offworld Trading Company | PC | Matthew Elliott | 1/2 | 81 | 86 | N/A |
Valkyria Chronicles Remastered | PlayStation 4 | Matt Sakuraoka-Gilman | 1/2 | 81 | 82 | N/A |
