“Despite the tone, despite the irritants that will stop you giving hours to it at a time, The Crew 2 isn’t a bad game; I can’t stress that enough. Sure, it’s well made, but it’s uninspiring and, too often, just boring, eschewing the Inception-like world bending the pre-release trailers promised for simple street racing, a…

6 games that desperately need a battle royale mode – VideoGamer
“Sure, Battlefield 11 and Call of Duty 15 (I’m not including the non-main-series games) have the mode coming to their latest and greatest versions, and we’ll always have PUBG and Fortnite (and hey, maybe keep an eye on that Realm Royale: little tip there from old Uncle GamesWriterMan, there) but we want new experiences. New…
Hollow Knight review – VideoGamer
“It’s deep and rewarding, but also brooding and destructive. It’s a shame that, very occasionally, the precise platforming is ruined with a random push of the jump button registering a second too late; resulting in damage from spikes, but you can’t have it all, I suppose.” Read the full review on VideoGamer.
The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit review – VideoGamer
“There are some heart-wrenching moments and there are poorly executed ones, but as a palette cleanser from Chloe and Max’s story, and something to tease season 2 of Life is Strange, it does its job. I’m just not sure where Captain Spirit himself fits into a full season, and it’s possible there may even end…
Fortnite on Switch: The beginner’s guide – VideoGamer
“Nintendo Switch is a very popular platform right now. After an immense opening year, Switch owners are being treated to Mario Tennis Aces, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate later this year, and a little something called Fortnite. A surprise announcement at E3 2018, Nintendo and Epic have joined forces, bringing the even-more-popular-than-the-Switch Fortnite to the console,…
These are the 10 best retro game cheats ever – Red Bull International
“Imagine Dark Souls with cheat codes. You’d get to Ornstein and Smough, input a command on the controller that made you to 10,000 damage per strike, reducing them to nothing more than a joke as you laughed in their faces. What about notoriously difficult rogue-like Spelunky? What if you could pop a code in that…
Assassin’s Creed can become a 10/10 series if it does these 5 things – VideoGamer
“With more entries than a Love Island contestant’s little black book, Ubisoft’s flagship franchise is returning sooner than expected, hitting Xbox One, PS4, and PC on October 25, 2018. The reason it’s such a surprise is because 2017’s Assassin’s Creed Origins came after a year-long break, and that’s something video game companies just don’t do….
Mario Tennis Aces guide: How to beat Blooper and Boom-Boom – VideoGamer
“Nintendo and Camelot’s latest foray into the world of Tennis, Mario Tennis Aces, is pretty good, you’ll be pleased to hear. But if there’s one thing that does really bring the overall experience down a notch, it’s a difficulty spike here or there. For most of the game’s Adventure Mode (read: Story Mode), it’s plain…
Mario Tennis Aces review – VideoGamer
“Mario Tennis Aces is a lot of fun away from that Adventure Mode because the mechanics are deep enough to offer a game with longevity in multiplayer. Nintendo has listened here, and made a better game than last time, but the difficulty in that single player mode really does sour things.” Video also produced for…
These are our predictions for E3 2019 – Red Bull International
“Now the dust has settled on another incredible E3, we’re left thinking about a show that brought us Gears 4, Forza Horizon 4, a glimpse of a new Halo, gameplay demos for Spider-Man and The Last of Us: Part II, as well as all that incredible Nintendo goodness. E3 truly is gaming Christmas, and we’ve…
10 games that were missing at E3 2018 – VideoGamer
“Whichever camp you sit in, 2018’s Electronic Entertainment Expo sure did showcase a lot of games. Maybe not as much gameplay as you’d like to see, with very few stage demos which didn’t stop everyone talking about Cyberpunk 2077’s behind-closed-doors hands-off demo which, by the way, was incredible. We got the resplendent re-reveal of the…
7 times Ninja’s Fortnite Battle Royale skills blew us away – Red Bull International
“Epic Games’ Fortnite Battle Royale is showing no signs of slowing down. In fact, it’s actually getting bigger thanks to the fact it’s now available on basically every platform you can imagine, including the Nintendo Switch. If you need someone to watch to get some ideas on how to up your game, look no further…
