The rebooted Tomb Raider was a much-needed breath of fresh air for the popular series, and as an origins story, it was good to see the hero that has become so iconic taking shape. It was also good to see the development team take the opportunity to modernise Lara, so…
Read MoreThe original Darksiders gave Zelda fans something a little more serious to dig into. Players got to take on the role of War, one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, who accidentally set it off the end of the world, then went about trying to fix that (fairly significant)…
Read MoreThere are a ridiculous number of things to see and do in Fallout 4, and while the game doesn’t represent the same leap forward that two to three was for the series, the adventure is still absolutely worth your while. Dozens of hours can easily be lost in exploration as…

There is a distinct quality about…
Read MoreWWE 2K16 rights many of the mistakes that showed up in last year’s game. The end result is an entertaining title that still has some room for improvement, but by and large offers redemption for a series that was in need of strong release this year. It is always a…
