Overall there is a lot of fun to be had with Crackdown 3 but it is slightly mindless fun and won’t stimulate you a great deal, its just a shame that this has been in development for so long everyone expected more from it, including me, just switch off your brain and enjoy the mindless fun while it lasts because you probably won’t come back to it for a long time.
If you really like puzzlers then it will have something for you but be prepared for the odd frustration. And also bear in mind whether you will be playing this solo or linked up with a friend, the latter will probably keep your blood pressure down a touch.
Overall this is a competent and enjoyable tactical strategy game, the story is good even if the missions can become a little samey, the game isn’t going to live up to the much more polished games in the genre but given the price difference this is well worth the money.
Overall I had a really good time playing Far Cry New Dawn, the story is just enough to follow on from last years game and gave me some good feelings of déjà vu as I wandered around the world seeing what had become of it after my last visit.
I have to say that I really didn’t enjoy any of my time with Crimson Keep, all I got from it was Crimson Mist as it just made me mad with frustration, I really can’t bring myself to recommend the game in any way.
Overall I’d recommend this if you enjoy platform puzzle games and just want something to pick up and put down when you feel like it, it wont take up too much of your time but also won’t keep you coming back for a long time either.
If you like shooters in any way shape or form I’d totally recommend this, even if you don’t like shared world shooters this is perfectly playable throughout the campaign in solo but it definitely becomes more fun if you get a little squad together and roam the streets of Washington together, the depth of the content here is vast and there is a huge amount of enjoyment to be had in the world, looking at Ubisoft’s pedigree with Games as a Service this one looks like it will run for a very long time.
The difficulty can put a lot of people of but it can also attract people who really want to be challenged and although this might not be as difficult as the original souls games it is certainly up there.
Overall this is really good game that just doesn’t quite hit the lofty heights it could do but there is a lot of entertainment to be had and it very well crafted, especially for the asking price.
Overall I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone other than the most die hard RPG fans, there are some decent flashes of ideas in there such as the magic but everything and I mean everything in the game is a grind and lacked enjoyment for me.
Overall I would recommend this as a fun experience, the storyline will play out in about 6-7 hours but the real enjoyment comes from the Co-op mode so grab your buddies and get slaughtering those Z’s
Despite the fairly cheap price and the fact that I did actually enjoy playing the game for the short time it took me to play the lot I cant really recommend it strongly to anyone other than the real achievement hunters out there, especially when you will likely see it reduced even further within a short time.
Even at the pretty low price of £4.99 I wouldn’t overly recommend this other than to hardcore achievement hunters as I can’t really see one specific audience wanting to jump on board this
Overall I really enjoyed the game, there a few minor quibbles in terms of the guided nature of the flow and the fact that towards the end you really do realise that you cant really go too wrong. There are not too many consequences to making poor choices either but I wouldn’t let this put you off what is essentially a very good game.
Overall I have thoroughly enjoyed my time with Rage 2 and stayed with it through the story unlike the previous game, great fun.
Overall this is a great remake of three wonderfully animated and enjoyable games, just don’t expect that you are going to get hours and hours of enjoyment out of them, it is likely to be a little shortlived.
Essentially this really is a Diablo 3 clone with the Warhammer licence slathered all over it, unfortunately it doesn’t have the polish or the depth of Diablo 3
Overall the game is pretty enjoyable puzzle game and should last most people about 6-7 hours to get through the storyline and its different puzzles, you just need to be able to see past the frustrating elements to get the best out of the game.
Overall given this has a fairly hefty price tag albeit not top end at £35 this is not what you would expect to get for your money, the frustrating element of all the issues means that its hard to really get a lot from this game and it just isn’t good value for money.
There is a lot of fun to be had in the game and you could easily suck 100+ hours out of it if you really wanted to explore and unlock everything, in all likelihood most people won’t stay with it for that long but regardless what time you do spend with it will likely be enjoyable.
