Review: Play a part in the wretched side of scum and villainy with Star Wars Outlaws
Star Wars Outlaws is a serviceable open-world game that makes great use of the license, but fails to provide much of a reason for non-believers to jump in.

Review: It’s a marvel that Dead Island 2 is out and an even bigger one that it’s good
Following a novel-worthy journey through development hell, it’s a miracle that Dead Island 2 turned out as well as it did.
Sunshine, Sarcasm, and Secrets Await in Lego City Undercover
Imagine climbing to the top of a tall tower, studded with Lego bricks. Upon finally reaching the top, you find a small Lego pig with wings and immediately hop on and ride it off the tower and into the town square, where a large cannon is conveniently waiting for you to load it in and…
Bokida: Heartfelt Reunion Review – Adjusting the contrast
Bokida’s vast, beautiful world is an absolute joy to explore.
Breath of the Wild embodies the spirit of exploration
In the time since finishing The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, I’ve occasionally loaded the game up and just wandered around Hyrule. I’d take a quick survey of where I was and pick a direction to set off in, never using the map to chart my path or scout for any particular destination….
Watch Dogs 2 Review: A hack above
Watch Dogs 2 is a game that doesn’t take itself too seriously. Unlike its 2014 predecessor set in Chicago, San Francisco’s turn at being the stage of open world hacking shenanigans is anything but a silly romp, and it’s great for that.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Review – Witching for more time
Reviewing a game like The Witcher 3 is more than just sitting down, playing a game and then writing about its ifs, whats, buts, and whys. Coming in as a fan of both the original game in a limited capacity and having considered Assassin of Kings, the previous entry in the series, one of my…
State of Decay Review
Grand Theft Auto 3 is undeniably one of the most influential games of the past decade. It basically started out what we have now come to call ‘open world’ games – with time, each of them becoming increasingly bigger and more ambitious than what came before. Undead Labs took that concept and married it to…
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim – Dragonborn Review
Dragonborn is a microcosmic manifestation of Skyrim, strengths and weaknesses alike. An unrepentant love letter to the Bloodmoon expansion pack of Morrowind, Dragonborn brings you back to Solstheim, the Nord colony besieged by a malevolent, unknown force. It also features an atrociously controlled, roller coaster-like addition in the form of dragon riding, where ‘overwhelmingly disappointing’…
