Sonic Frontiers review

Even Station Square had better worldbuilding. Adding to the eyesore is the atrocious amount of pop-in throughout - even on a PS5! Collect memory tokens to unlock new conversations! Level up Sonic’s speed and other attributes! Oh, and here’s a fishing mini-game with Big the Cat! It’s all slapped together and explained with a quick tutorial boxout, and then off you go. These feel even grander when you’re taking on larger colossi-jot down enemies, or the main boss Titans....

Persona 5 Royal's eagerly anticipated console ports put to the test

All platforms covered - including Steam Deck. Persona 5 had a bit of an odd gestation. Some of the more egregious-looking textures in the original game are replaced with higher-res assets. New artwork adorns many of the game’s buildings and streets. Lighting and colour grading are also reworked, with the updated game having a brighter, punchier look. However, I came away with mixed feelings on the ultimate result. There are a few major issues here....

The Modern Warfare 2 campaign offers much more than a photorealistic Amsterdam

Infinity Ward’s IW9 engine flexes on PS5 and Xbox Series consoles. Modern Warfare 2’s story gives the IW9 engine a superb workout. It plays perfectly to its strengths. All linearity is thrown out the window in favour of a more open-ended design. The most memorable mission - visually speaking - is the now iconic Amsterdam level. It’s a quiet story beat, a moment of calm in-between the game’s more bombastic action....
