Mini Review Crysis Remastered - A Poor Remaster of a Pretty Important Game
Not-so incredible Crysis
Everyone remembers Crysis, of course. But what’s easy to forget is Crytek’s PC shattering behemoth of a technical marvel released 13 years ago. The industry has changed rather a lot in that time. For example, 13 years ago, Crysis was a pretty good game. Now? Well, it’s complicated. Memes aside, the PS4 can mostly...
Mini Review Unrailed - Simple Train Survival Game Runs Out of Steam
Do the locomotion
Unrailed is a co-op survival game in which you must keep a train going for as long as possible. It's a novel twist on the genre that sees you and three other players protecting a locomotive rather than yourselves. It even has the usual trappings of survival games, such as procedural level generation and crafting, but it keeps it...

Review Tennis World Tour 2 - A Winner
Match point
Tennis games tend to be a lot of fun, but even the best ones struggle to capture the intricacy of the sport. In franchises like Virtua Tennis, the emphasis is on baseline rallies rather than pin-point ball placement, and so matches devolve into a battle of attrition as players slug it out from left-to-right until the angles no longer...

This latest piece of DLC is said to be fairly significant, except it comes out on the same day as the Xbox...

Review Spelunky 2 - Rock Hard Roguelike Is a Superior Sequel
To the moon
Spelunky is the definition of "harsh but fair". A roguelike platformer with a myriad of moving parts, the procedurally generated underground worlds have a strict set of rules, and you must follow them, lest you be punished in surprisingly gruesome ways. It's of course very much the same with Spelunky 2, a sequel that builds upon the...

Review WWE 2K Battlegrounds - Rubbish Wrestling and Microtransactions Galore
World Wrestling Spendertainment
Honestly, there's something sinister about WWE 2K Battlegrounds.

No, there's a nefarious aura surrounding this game because...
News UK Sales Charts: Mario Forces Avengers and Tony Hawk Down the Top 10
All-Stars
Marvel's Avengers has been sitting pretty atop the UK's physical games chart for two weeks in a row, but it's now been dethroned by a certain moustachioed plumber.

Hands On Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Couldn't Be More Different
A step back from Modern Warfare?
Despite the fact that some will undoubtedly scoff at the idea, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War might be the biggest deviation the franchise has made in quite some time. That's in terms of both feel and gunplay inside its multiplayer suite, and we don't think the change is for the better. Last year's Call of Duty:...
News Your Marvel's Spider-Man Saves Can't Be Carried Over to the PS5 Remaster
Treated as a new release
Marvel's Spider-Man: Remastered sounds like a pretty significant upgrade on the original PS4 release, boasting 60 frames-per-second and numerous graphical enhancements.
