A review of Sonic X Shadow Generations on the Nintendo Switch.
Sonic Superstars
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nK18JdBKFQA Superstars celebrates and modernises the look and feel of the original Sonic games. Tight, responsive controls and a few excellent levels/boss fights are real highlights. Unfortunately, a baffling use of Chaos Emerald...
Disney Illusion Island
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5FnoHrzjT-s A tight, responsive platformer adorned by beautiful hand-drawn animations and enchanting music. Humourous writing and great voice performances spotlight the whole cast and a good selection of multiplayer options make it a...
Lego 2K Drive (Offline)
A review of Lego 2K Drive as played on the Nintendo Switch OLED. This review focuses on the offline, single-player content of the wacky open-world Kart racer.
Sonic Frontiers
Sonic Frontiers' venture into an open world (especially on the Switch) is a really promising but occasionally flawed experience. While it's already a (mostly) enjoyable game, it is the obvious potential it shows for where the series could go in the future that has us...
Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope
Sparks of Hope, while a little slow to start off, is the definition of a good sequel (keeping the good stuff while making some welcome changes to the old formula). By adding layers of strategy it is sure to keep fans of the genre engaged and by including a multitude...
Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak
All in all, Sunbreak is an excellent addition to the Monster Hunter franchise. We’re spoiled with new endemic life, new characters, additional fighting players, and, of course, monsters. Players will not be disappointed. With each new day, sunrise signals birth and a...
Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes
FEWTH happily let's you spend more time with your friends in Fodlan, although some might miss the stately strategy being replaced with brutish hack and slash. Still, there is enough here to keep you collecting friends and going on picnics with them. I don’t think I...
Sonic Origins
Other than having some content locked behind frustrating pay/pre-order walls, this is an almost perfect nostalgic collection. If you love the original Sonic games, Origins is simply one of the best ways to revisit them! Growing up I was (as you've probably...
LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga
Clearly made by and for fans of the series, The Skywalker Saga freshens up the LEGO formula just enough to provide an outstandingly enjoyable tour through the Star Wars stories, punctuated by some wonderful humour, familiar gameplay and an energetic pace. Like so many...
Triangle Strategy
While the combat of games from yesteryear like Final Fantasy Tactics have been given new life and fresh polish in Triangle Startegy providing a load of fun, the rest of the package needs some work. When I first heard about Triangle Strategy, I thought it was a dream...
Chocobo GP
AN INTERESTING AND OFTEN QUITE UNQUE ALTERNATIVE TO MARIO KART WHICH GETS A LOT RIGHT (ESPECIALLY IF YOU'RE A FINAL FANTASY FAN), BUT DUE TO INTRUSIVE & QUITE PREDATORY MICROTANSACTIONS SIMPLY CANNOT BE RECOMMENDED As a crisp and fun looking kart racer and a...
OlliOlli World
A FREE-FLOWING SKATER THAT FEELS SIMPLY FANTASTIC WHEN MASTERED, BUT SOME RATHER UNIQUE CONTROLS AS WELL A PECULIAR ART STYLE AND STORY MEAN IT MAY TAKE SOME GETTING USED TO. Skateboarding games have become a genre in themselves. We've all probably played a video game...
SkateBIRD
AN UNDOUBTEDLY CUTE AND EVENTUALLY (REASONABLY) FUN SKATING GAME BOGGED DOWN BY A FRUSTRATING INTRODUCTION, SOME CLUNKY CONTROLS AND AN INFURIATING IN-LEVEL QUEST MECHANIC. A chilled skating title featuring a variety of adorable birds is a pretty fantastic premise for...
