Generic and boring, Terminator: Resistance's only redeeming feature is its fan service.
Bethesda's attempt at Fallout multiplayer is, like so many of the series' vaults, a failed experiment.
Street Fighter 2 on Switch is a disappointing release made worse by the rip-off price.
Vanguard won't join the pantheon of Call of Duty games, but it's a decent stop-gap for those waiting for Modern Warfare's return.
Solid gameplay improvements overshadowed by the fact EA Sports still hasn't tackled FUT's loot box problem.
In desperate need of depth and content, Destruction AllStars is at least a fun whiz around the corner.
At launch, ahead of the release of the game's first season, Black Ops Cold War is a good shooter and a wonderful achievement, but it is far from being the great competitive multiplayer shooter it should be. I'm confident it can get there. Modern Warfare ended up with some fantastic updates during its first year of life, after all. So I'm sticking with Black Ops Cold War - for now.
Fun football with plenty of goals, but the grubby business of selling loot boxes lets the side down.
Don't bother with PES 2021 if you can option file PES 2020, but if you're coming in fresh, PES 2021 is a decent shout at a decent price.
The Resident Evil 3 remake, like the original upon which it is based, is inferior to its predecessor.
Bleeding Edge could be on to something with meaningful updates, but at launch it's Xbox Game Pass filler at best.
When it's good, it's great. When it's bad it's frustrating. Everything in between is, well, Call of Duty.
PES 2020 is a patch or three away from being a very good game. As it stands, it's a weird mix of brilliant and broken.
With this surprise Switch exclusive, Nintendo has taken an old-school approach - for better and for worse.
The beautiful game at its most glorious, and its most grotesque.
Dead or Alive 6 stumbles into 2019 like a drunken uncle staggers onto the dancefloor at a wedding: past it and likely to embarrass.
Snappy and responsive weapon-based fighting let down by a boring new story mode and loading issues.
The football is as sublime as ever, but PES's lack of progress elsewhere pulls it back.
FIFA 19 is a great football video game marred by ongoing issues with Ultimate Team.
Like Spurs, FIFA 18 plays a fantastic game of football. But like Spurs, FIFA 18 probably won't win any trophies.
