Review MediEvil - A Successful Resurrection of a Flawed But Fun Adventure
Undead and loving it
Remakes of fondly remembered favourites always have a tough call to make: should they remain faithful to the source material, or make improvements and changes to modernise the old-school design?

Hands On Iron Man VR Is the Next Big Thing for PSVR
Stark would be proud
It feels like major PlayStation VR releases have dried up as of late.

Review The Outer Worlds - Fallout: New Vegas Meets Mass Effect in This Role-Playing Masterclass
Spacer's choice
The Outer Worlds borrows a lot from Fallout. More specifically, Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas, the latter being developer Obsidian's own creation.

Hands On Marvel's Avengers on PS4 Assembles One Helluva Set-Piece Opening
A real Marvel
Marvel’s Avengers has come under intense scrutiny since its official unveiling at E3 2019 – strange, considering the Crystal Dynamics developed superhero smash opens in the most eye-popping manner imaginable.

We are the lazy generation
Criterion Games made a name for itself with its blisteringly fast racing series, Burnout.
