If you eat Elden Ring for breakfast, have at it, but the rest of us mere mortals will have to approach Skelethrone: The Chronicles of Ericona much more cautiously.
Some of the checkpointing is quite unforgiving at times and the physics occasionally feel off, but power through GRAPPIN and you'll find a decent view from the top.
Sure, it’s on the unfairly punishing side, and both the controls and the weapons could have done with more work, but this is a worthy rewind to the time of the Dreamcast. Pick up Rainbow Cotton on the Xbox and save yourself that £300.
There’s no doubt that Terminal 81 is a very unique and charming indie game. It has an unusual setting and plays with the idea of horror in a realistic setting with proficiency.
Ready, Steady, Ship! is an uneven experience, albeit a fairly substantial one. It’s a little more fun when you get a friend involved, but there are other titles in the genre that have done it better.
There’s no doubt that Full Metal Sergeant is an interesting game, but its big drawback is in its length. It doesn’t take long to figure out what you need to do to get your guys mission ready, and once they have accomplished their objectives, that’s it.
Capes is a pretty accomplished tactics game, and while the story keeps you playing, all as you look to see what is going to happen, the hook to drag you back afterwards is a bit weaker.
