    Metal Gear Online is fun in small doses as a back to basics approach to online shooters, though a lack of content will undoubtedly upset and annoy some.

    If you're patient and able to get your head around a challenging set of rules, there's fun to be had with Blood Bowl 2. Otherwise, it's one that's only going to appeal when you're in the right mood. [Issue#130, p.84]

    Just don't expect to be blown away by its competent but uniformly forgettable local multiplayer component. [Issue#130, p.83]

    The vehicle sections really drag this latest Skylanders down. It's a disappointing addition to the series. [Issue#130, p.77]

    FIFA has PES beaten when it comes to attention to presentational detail and atmosphere, but maybe that isn't enough anymore. For flowing football, though, you should look elsewhere. [Issue#130, p.71]

    343 Industries is clearly passionate, but it’s shown a criminal misunderstanding of what makes the franchise work. Halo 5: Guardians has moments of greatness, but it’s a shadow of its former self.

    There is so much to love about LEGO Dimensions; clever design decisions, an excellent script and some real standout moments. But that paywall will either kill your bank account, or frustrate you.

    The beautiful wasteland is incredible to drive around, but leave the Magnum Opus and the excitement dips. This is nearly excellent, but instead is frustrating.

    Fun in doses and has a great presentation, sadly, Tembo falters as Game Freak looked to increase the game length in the most obnoxious way possible. [Issue#128, p.81]

    A half-finished game. [Issue#128, p.80]

    Relies heavily on the work of its arguably better predecessors. [Issue#128, p.79]

    The design flaws that held DMC4 back on release frustrate even more today, and even a raft of new content can't boost this to SSS status. [Issue#127, p.86]

    MotoGP 2015 has evolved, but it isn't the step up in class we were hoping for. [Issue#127, p.85]

    Represents its sport well, but it's just too mundane to ever be something of note. One for the fans and very few others. [Issue#127, p.83]

    Spectra's a fine little racer that'll help kill time while you wait for a download. If just a couple of niggles had been ironed out and changed however, this could have been much better. [Issue#127, p.82]

    F1 2015 absolutely nails the driving experience, with perfect controls and incredible physics. But the options are so limited, you're likely to get bored fast. Roll on 2016. [Issue#127, p.81]

    Not a game to be played for hours on end, Tower of Guns is still a fun and rewarding shooter, albeit one that takes a little time to really appreciate. [Issue#125, p.84]

    Lacks its predecessor's smarts and class. [Issue#125, p.81]

    New modes and better motion controls make it an improvement over its predecessor; just don't count on it holding your attention. [Issue#124, p.88]

    It's a joke that remains consistently funny, while still surprising in places. [Issue#124, p.84]

    • 60 Critic Score
    A valiant effort, but one that is ultimately let down by a series of technical glitches and a depressingly mute community. It is free to play, though. [Issue#124, p.83]

    A blend of Resident Evil old and new, Revelations 2 does itself, and the franchise, justice falling a little short simply due to a couple of poor episodes. [Issue#123, p.77]
    • X-ONE Magazine UK
    • 72 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A valiant attempt at doing something different with a revered franchise, but one that doesn't fulfill all of its goals or early promise. One for FF fans only. [Issue#123, p.74]

    Eight games in as many years, and Ubisoft has finally perfected the art of making a highly skilled and super badass assassin feel totally, entirely boring.

    Minor technical issues aside, Roundabout's unique concept and cheesy yet personable performances make it a pleasure to play. [Issue#122, p.81]

    A great fighting game at its core. [Issue#122, p.80]
