Wolfenstein The Old Blood review

Wolfenstein: The Old Blood is a prequel to The New Order and sees our hero BJ fighting the Nazi cause over two parts and 8 chapters, originally designed to be DLC for the main game. This is now a piece of standalone content which means you don’t actually need the main game to play it and because it’s a prequel, you don’t even need to catch up on the story. The first four chapters see you infiltrating Castle Wolfenstein to retrieve an important document that points towards Deathshead’s stronghold you’ll be going after in The New Order. Things don’t quite...

State of Decay Year-One Survival Edition review

Zombies again. Will we ever get bored of them? If you’re not yet sated for shuffling nasties that want to eat you, State of Decay on the Xbox One may be worth ago. If you missed it the first time around on the Xbox 360, this version includes both the DLC packs and apparently updated graphics, although it does look very dated indeed. You start the game being attacked by zombies as you beat them down and find your way to relative safety and are then introduced to the mechanic of finding a vantage point to scout around your location...

Mortal Kombat X review

The recent reboot of Mortal Kombat in 2011 was a great success. Combining visceral punchy combat with an actual story for once in a fighting game instead of some stills and juxtaposition made for my favourite fighting game, especially since it had so much more to offer as well. Mortal Kombat X expands on this with a roster of brand new fighters, graphical improvements and some very imaginative fatalities! Single player sees another fight between the Earth Realm and the Netherealm as Shinnok comes back from where he was sent in the last game to do all sorts of naughty...

Slender The Arrival review

Anyone who watches my reviews knows I’m a sucker for horror games but oddly enough I’ve never really played any of the true survival games that have come out recently apart from Alien: Isolation. Slender: The Arrival isn’t exactly new, but this remix for the latest generation of consoles delivers a couple of new chapters and ideas to the game which sees you exploring a house, nearby wood and more in search of your friend who has gone missing. Armed only with a torch, what seems like a nice sunny day soon turns into night and things get really creepy....

Battlefield Hardline review

I’m a big Battlefield fan but let’s be honest, there’s never really been a great Battlefield single player campaign. Visceral who have a pedigree of storytelling and character development now have the helm and you know what? I think they may have cracked it. Instead of putting the player in a war scenario, we’re plunge into the murky world of cops and robbers where, as police officer Nick Mendoza, you become embroiled in a drug and turf war on the mean streets of Los Angeles and other far away locations. This is actually one of the first game’s I’ve also...

Zombie Army Trilogy review

Zombies, don’t you just love ‘em? Well, they seem to love you as they’re always shambling towards you with arms outstretched. Maybe they just want a hug? Oh no, wait, they’re trying to eat my brains, aaaggggggh! But seriously, if that’s possible when talking about hordes of the undead – aren’t we bored of zombie games yet? Well, Zombie Army Trilogy puts a new spin on things and it’s actually quite fun as you attempt to save Germany from the rotting Third Reich when Hitler suddenly does something very different to all the Downfall meme videos on YouTube and unleashes...
