Beyond Light is a fun campaign on a beautiful and expansive new world, but Destiny 2 is still some way from being the best version of itself.
A successful resurrection of Hitman. Deft systems design and great levels, slightly let down by production issues and online restrictions.
It's let down by lacklustre combat and some annoying enemy design, but Prey is still a compelling, beautiful immersive sim.
An entertaining but unambitious sequel that collects up the best features of previous games and adds in some interesting new twists.
The setting of Onomichi proves that the long-running series still has some tricks, making Yakuza 6 a worthy finale for its main protagonist.
Not a dramatic reinvention, but still an enjoyable game of construction, economics and election fraud.
An entertaining and efficient strategy game that improves on its predecessor—just not all that much.
More good Hitman, although the repetition of style and presentation is taking the shine off the experience.
A novel perspective on totalitarian surveillance. Orwell may not make you think, but it should keep you entertained.
A well-formed slice of noir mystery, beautifully presented. Some writing issues aside, A Case of Distrust is well worth your time.
A worthy end to Dragon Age: Inquisition. A lengthy quest with a satisfying pay-off makes up for some unimaginative encounters.
Beautiful, touching and messy. Life Is Strange is good—not great—but I'd recommend it to anyone.
Not the best, biggest or neatest expansion in the series' history, Shadowkeep nonetheless sets a solid foundation for what's to come.
Despite being a smart progression of Blood Money's ideas, Hitman feels unrefined and unfinished in lots of small but important ways.
Not the best or most intricate level, but a welcome departure from previous episodes.
Burial at Sea, Episode One is good but not essential - the only piece of BioShock story content you could say that about.
A fun, if lightweight, stealth combat game. The turn-based fighting isn't perfect, but remains entertaining enough to be worth a look.
Suffers in comparison to Yakuza 0, but is still a compelling drama and an important part of the series as a whole.
Not particularly difficult, and its mobile roots are showing, but Hitman GO: Definitive Edition is an entertaining puzzle spin-off.
Beamdog has proven they can continue the Baldur's Gate story. In doing so, they replicate the antiquated nature of the Baldur's Gate games.
