Review Silent Hill F (PS5) - Brutal Survival Horror Walks a New Path
Fatal framing
13 years after the two failures that killed the franchise for a generation (the one-two punch of Downpour and Book of Memories), a new, traditional, and safe entry in the Silent Hill series must have been a tantalising prospect for Konami. It’s just got the fanbase back on board with an excellent remake of Silent Hill 2, and only a...
Review Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater (PS5) - The Best Version of an Undisputed Classic

Salamander is, of course, the spinoff series of...

Fortunately, if you're not familiar with...
Review Deliver At All Costs (PS5) - Special Delivery with Mixed Results
Return to sender
While the world waits patiently for GTA 6, it seems smaller developers have started to turn to the origins of Rockstar’s open world juggernaut for inspiration. The Precinct recently proved that an isometric crime caper can work, and now we have a similarly presented package in Deliver At All Costs – albeit with an emphasis on...
