Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint PC review

The Ghost are back, this time trapped on a hi-tech island under siege by a one of their own, gone bad.

Ghost Recon Breakpoint is the follow up to 2017’s Ghost Recon Wildlands. The new game swaps the drug-fuelled warzone of Bolivia for the far less contentious fictional island of Auroa, the South Pacific Island paradise of tech billionaire, Jace Skell.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Complete Edition Switch review

Polish developer CD Projekt RED’s The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt still holds its own across console and PC, some four years after it’s initial release.

Incredibly, now owners of the modestly-powered Nintendo Switch can also sample this magnificent game. But how does a game that bought even the mightiest PC to its knees four years ago fair on Nintendo’s little handheld console? Continue reading The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Complete Edition Switch review

NBA 2K20 PS4 review

2K continue to push the envelope to give us yet another slick, gorgeous-looking entry to their long-running basketball franchise.

NBA 2K20’s gameplay is fast. And I found this more than a little daunting it having been a while since I last played an NBA 2K game. Compared to EA’s rival NBA Live series, NBA 2K doesn’t take prisoners. Whereas EA’s basketball games are easy to get into, they lack the depth compared to 2K’s games. The downside is that NBA 2K game’s really make you work for success. Continue reading NBA 2K20 PS4 review

Gears 5 Xbox One/PC review

Does the fifth instalment of the Xbox, and now also Windows PC, exclusive Gears of War franchise offer something new or is it more of the same?

After Microsoft purchased the Gears of War franchise from Epic Games back in 2014, they handed the reins over to their new in-house development studio, The Coalition. The Canadian outfit cut their teeth retooling the original Xbox game for re-release on Xbox One and PC as Gears of War: Ultimate Edition. Continue reading Gears 5 Xbox One/PC review

MXGP 2019 PC review

There’s no doubt that Milestone are the experts when it comes to motorcycle games, their MotoGP and Ride franchises capture perfectly the speed and handling of high-powered road bikes. Straight lining or leaning into a bend is all very well on smooth asphalt, but doing the same on dirt, dust and mud is a different thin altogether.

MXGP 2019 is the latest iteration of Milestone’s yearly licenced MXGP game based on the FIM Motorcross World Championships. The game includes all the tracks from the 2019 season plus a special playground area and a track editor for player to create their own track and share with the community.
