Nidhogg 2
Nidhogg 2
2017 | Action
Nidhogg 2 is a surprisingly short game, but that doesn’t mean it’s not a lot of fun. While the Arcade Mode is rather short at eleven stages, the local and online multiplayer options will keep fans coming back.

Original Score: 8 out of 10

My favourite
The first destiny was not that good but after playing this one I'm obsessed it's my favourite game by far. Everything is amazing including the graphics. The story line is the best story line IV played in a long time. The multiplayer aspect is great. Apart from a few things like long loading screens I'd recommend 100%

Best campaign
Halo 4 is without the best of the 5 master chief campaigns.
343 studios took the story telling to the next step and brought master chief into this huge universe that had been created.

All the characters within the game new and old serve their purpose in driving the story forward, and with a complete rest at the end of Halo 3, there is no requirement to play any of the other games prior to enjoy the story.

Game play is solid, new enemies can become abit like bullet sponges, and often on the harder difficulties you do not have enough ammo in a clip to bring enemies down, which can disrupt the flow of the game.

Halo 4 Multiplayer, can at times be frustrating. Admit of emphasis has been placed on mods and load outs, which detracts from Halo's forget stave of controlling weapons on map, which can be easily avoided now, since the grange treks you when they will appear and where, meaning no need to learn the makes to the fullest.

With that said, when Multiplayer is played in legendary mode, Halo 4 becomes the strongest Multiplayer gave toe since Halo 2.the introduction of sprint makes matches a good fast pace, and leaves you vulnerable to gun fire since it takes longer to fire your weapon from a sprint position.

With a lack of great makes Halo 4 was never going to be ground breaking Multiplayer, but it is a solid and welcomed addition to the franchise.
Coupled with its amazing campaign Halo 4 is an incredible tithe.

Lack of diverse weapons
Compelling story beautiful, open-world
Much like Far Cry 4 (which I loved) this is an open-world, vaguely linear action adventure game. Lots of terrain to explore, lots of odd encounters with strange NPCs.

The difference, and the real hook for me, is the storyline. Trying to avoid spoilers, go watch the trailer and get sucked in. Based in the US you are a US Marshal fighting a religious cult. Trying to reclaim Hope County from this bizarre and extreme set of believers.

The multiplayer is good and well thought out and different but I will admit that I have spent very little time in the Multiplayer world of Far Cry 5.

Its slow combat pace and narrative shortcomings might turn off those unwilling to take the time to dive into what it has to offer. But make no mistake-those who do will be rewarded with some of the most satisfying multiplayer melee fighting conceived...

I was obsessed
I spent hours and hours getting platinum on this game. As a Call of Duty fan I started to leave it behind when I found Battlefield. Online was so better balanced, less run and gun and more help your team achieve. I lost so much of my life playing.

Any alpha dinosaur!
Both terrifying and good fun!
This game is so fun! Never did I ever think I'd be able to ride a raptor into a forest and come flying back out a minute later being chased by a t-rex! It's both exhilarating to finally escape the dinosaur that was after you and terrifying!
One tip for if you play this game, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ENOUGH SPACE FOR YOUR BASE! I say this as it is very annoying to try and move all the dinosaurs you have tamed somewhere else!

The multiplayer is also very fun! The ability to build a little community with your friends then go out and find dinosaurs together is very fun!

So much fun
This is exactly the kind of game that I love and is reminiscent of games like Diner Dash, Cooking Craze etc available on portable devices.

It is possibly the most frustratingly fun game I've ever played. Although one player is possible and it's alright to try and play on your own, multiplayer/couch co-op is where this game excels. Playing this with your other half could be a risky move, but it provides hours of entertainment and an excuse to be able to boss them around in a kitchen! It isn't just a free for all, you have to work together and figure out a strategy as the game gets harder, so it really encouraged cooperation (Although could also result in arguments).


The graphics aren't the best but it more than makes up for it with hours of multiplayer fun.

My favourite game
I hadn't heard of the game before I discovered it in my local game store. I picked it up and struggled to put it down

The storyline was pretty decent, but the best thing was the range of different COs that each had their own CO skill which did things such as heal their units or improve their strength


Multiplayer games could also be played in hot-seat mode as well as with a link cable, meaning that everyone can play without having to own the game or any of the equipment.


I genuinely cannot think of a bad thing about this game. One of the all time greats
