    The foundation for Gigantic is great. Good gameplay, fun and visually appealing, but the lack of content is holding it back, so we'll have to wait and see how this promising experience evolves.

    For a genre that is continuing to grow thanks to the monumental success of Overwatch, Gigantic is a bigger splash than I expected.

    The fundamental gameplay is strong. Matches are fast and enjoyable. The characters are visually wonderful and mechanically distinct. But the overall experience just needs more. More Guardians, more maps, more modes. The heroes feel like they're in the right place, but the rest needs to be pumped up over time for Gigantic to truly stand tall among its competition.

    Gigantic is an accessible MOBA that admirably scales the genre down, but loses the magic that makes the genre so enticing. It lacks many of the myriad ability and character interactions that make learning these kinds of games so much fun, and the combat doesn’t find a comfortable center between MOBA and third-person action.

    A unique take on MOBA. Or should I say, hero-fighter and hero-shooter MOBA? It's different from the other battle arena games out there. YouA unique take on MOBA. Or should I say, hero-fighter and hero-shooter MOBA? It's different from the other battle arena games out there. You fight 5v5 on a arena with a rather different kind of layout, summon creatures and eliminate enemies and their creatures. There are no actual minions or towers, rather, players fight to death in an attempt to power up their own Guardians. The game ends when the enemy Guardian is killed.

    It has its fair share of flaws, but worth a try especially since it's free to play, you can then decide for your own afterwards if you want to invest real money, provided you enjoy it.    … Full Review »

The graphics are too flashy to the point of having a problem reading what's happening on the screen. Matches are drawn out. Matchmaking looks like it just throws 10 available people together without taking their skill into consideration (I'd say 10-20% of matches are fair, rest of the time you're either stomping or being stomped). Needs more maps. Bad balance. Combat feels overall good, but it's bit too hectic (mostly because of visual over-saturation) . Hopefully, they'll fix most of these things, but right now it' a "no".… Full Review »
