Uncharted 4 - A Thief’s End Finished the game in just over 17 hours. Pros * Stunning to look at. Everything from the character models to the environments is beautiful. Must be one of the best looking games ever. The character models are uncannily lifelike. * Although not as many big set pieces as in previous games the pacing is spot on. I liked the many quiet and puzzle sections just as much as the climbing and…
65 hours played Level 30 The Division is very Destiny-like. It is a third-person shooter with MMO and RPG-lite qualities. Set in Manhatten NY after a biological terrorist attack. You are a Division agent sent in to help the locals and restore order from the groups that have taken over. Pros * Real world setting is cool. I caught myself looking for areas I visited in real life to see how they looked in game. It is…
Quantum Break Playtime - 8hs 48 mins Completion - 97% Is it a game or is it a TV show? As it happens it is a bit of both. The lastest game from Remedy is a paradox in more ways than one. It is a third-person cover shooter Where you play as Jack Joyce (Shawn Ashmore - Xmen) who gets caught up in a time travel adventure where you are trying to stop the “END OF ALL TIME”. While visiting your brothers old friend you…
Bought this just before Xmas in the Steam sale. 50% off which is just as well. Was Telltale's first foray into the action genre worth the wait? Unfortunately it is a resounding NO. There are too many issues with this game to call it anything but a massive disappointment. The film is set sround the events of the original movie. Revolving round the canister of embryos lost by Nedry as he tried to flee the island. You…
Racing games are not normally my cup of tea. Just never been into them. However the premise of this game has always tugged at me. It's basically the "Cannonball Run", a cross country race across America. Genius premise that I can't believe they have never tried before. I wasn't willing to splash out on it on release so I picked it up cheap in the post Xmas sales. The game basically gives you access to a lot of fast…
Modern Warfare 3 (Single Campaign) The Behemoth of video games is back for another year, but without most of Infinity Ward's staff. Still didn't stop it selling $775m in 5 days. Is it bigger, better and more insane than last years action feast? Unfortunately the answer is a resounding NO. It's shorter (it took me 5 hours to complete one hour less than MW2), less interactive and instantly forgettable. The…
Rage (Single Player) RAGE is ID Software's latest shooter. It uses the ID Tech 5 engine to render Mega Textures to look fantastic (not without it's problems though) and maintains a 60 fps rate through the game meaning it runs smooth as a baby's bottom. Story Set in a post apocalyptic world where you are an Ark survivor (basically you were buried underground after an asteroid strike). You wake to a world overrun by…
