LEGO Voyagers Review – Big Heart, Little PackageI got a brief taste of LEGO Voyagers last month, about the first twenty minutes or so of the game, which left me charmed but curious. The game was cute enough that I was perfectly happy to look past its quirky, imprecise control scheme, and I could tell from the life breathed into the level [...]

Cronos: The New Dawn Has Cutbacks On Xbox Series S, But Performance Is 'Flawless'Series X in-line with PS5. A week or so after its launch, Digital Foundry has delivered its tech review on Cronos: The New Dawn , which includes an analysis on both the Xbox Series X and Series S versions of the Bloober Team shooter. We've thrown that DF review up above, but for those of you that want to read rather than watch, we'll go over a bit of what's been covered here. First off, there's not too much to say about the Series X version - it contains both a 30FPS and a 60FPS mode, and figures across the board line up similarly to the PS5 version, and are generally as you'd expect.

Cronos: The New Dawn Review – A Brutal, Time-Bending Triumph in Survival HorrorDeveloper Bloober Team has consistently surprised me. From the humble beginnings of Layers of Fear to Observer and The Medium, they are essentially a studio that evolves its approach to narrative and psychological horror without allowing itself to get too comfortable within the space. There seems to be a push within the team to raise [...]

Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Dragon Age: The Veilguard On Xbox Game Pass?You enjoying it so far? Back at the tail-end of August, we were treated to Dragon Age: The Veilguard on Xbox Game Pass - a title that initially received great reviews on Metacritic, but has since received very mixed feedback from fans of the series.

Review: Indiana Jones: The Order Of Giants - Puzzle-Focused DLC Expands On Xbox's Indy AdventureSlow and sluggish wins the race. MachineGames is back with another dip into Indiana Jones and the Great Circle - this time with an extended outing in the game's Vatican location, or should I say, underneath the game's Vatican location. Yep, The Order of Giants takes titular hero Indiana Jones underground to explore the various caverns and sewers that lay beneath the Holy City - tackling some brain-scratching puzzles and a creepy cult in the process. Let's start with how you actually access the new DLC content. If you own the pack and have it installed, The Order of Giants is woven right into the main game, rather than being accessed separately. You head to the Fountain of Confession within the Vatican City, where Father Ricci is waiting to set you out on a new quest based in an extended portion of one of the game's existing areas. The Order of Giants instantly feels like a new slice of The Great Circle rather than anything profoundly new or different - and that extends to the way the expansion plays as well.
