Lego has released yet another Lego game, this one being Lego: Jurassic World. This game is like all the other Lego games, has a sense of humour and general premiss is the same as what you already know.

Can't really remember why I put this game on the review list, it's actually hard to review something that is the same as its predecessor. The story has changed to match the movie and you can play as a dinosaur in this one, so there is that. The movie is 12, but the game is 7 and up - think about that for a second. There are things I love about Lego, the comedy and the style in which they embrace the fact that they are just Lego pieces. There is talking in this one which makes a big difference, but then again there has been talking in most of them up to this one. Just all very samey, samey really.



The Harry Potter ones were good, and I liked the Lego DC Super-Villains one. Anyway, the story is about a mutated other Dinosaur. They have crossed it with two others and now it's super evil; you get to see it eat someone... maybe that's why it's a 7+.



It's not targeted at me, it's targeted at young children and I'm sure if you have a child, they will love it. These games do have an adult gamer base, but it's very few.

I've never been a massive fan of the Gears Of War franchise. The whole idea of just war continuously being at war and fighting through just repeatedly. It's great if you have a friend with you, and that is what this game needs. The game has some depth of detail on the characters and even gives you Gears Of War 4 back story at the introduction. But it doesn't give you the full details. There is depth to the characters though, and you have a whole new one to upgrade this time. His name is Dave, and you can upgrade him to do things like restore health or push enemies out of cover. You can even play as the robot if you play two-player. There is also a new action, stab and you can now pick up things from afar using Dave. Apart from that, it's all the controls you used to know.


I really liked the openness of Gears Of War 4, felt like I could explore the world. Gears Of Wars 5 however, makes you feel cramped and dark. Which is a shame because this one is in UHD. Like that matters to anyone. 
The game just didn't get me excited enough. I didn't feel that rush on competing for a mission or achievement from finding where to make Dave go. The new little things just don't feel worth the £45 price tag and the game isn't that great with the storyline. 


If you're looking to buy this game for PC or Xbox, then the link is below.


Vampire: The Masquerade. If you know anything about vampire games, then this will have likely been one game you’ve played. It’s an old game that brought out by Troika Games back in 2004. The game had a lot of problems, but the fans loved it, so much that they started to fix the game. The gaming company went bust after release and never could afford to patch the game.

Well, the game is back, well sort of. It’s been heavily ripped off. They’re calling it a sequel, but it more or less the exact first one. If you loved the game before, I’m sure this is happy news to you. From what I’ve seen so far, it seems Hardsuit Labs have kept the basics of the original game. That is the three main interactions - social, combat, and helping you explore the game. 
If you’re from the old game, here’s what looks like has changed. Clans: were six are now more like four — no signs of the Sabbat clan. The places have changed, such as the Santa Monica, Hollywood, Downtown LA and China Town have been axed. You're now in Seattle in at least the first 3 hours. Apart from that, it looks like a redo of the original game.

In the new version, you start out as a Thin Blood and have to be accepted into a clan. So no more beefed Tremere superpowers at the beginning. Although a Tremere will still be your boss; If you so choose. You’ll be able to pick one superpower at the start of the game. Chiropteran: Bat like a superpower that lets you travel and attack people. Mentalism: enables you to move objects and Nebulation: which allows you to become mist and go through vents. 

The game is more set on becoming a clan member. Although we haven't seen what else there is in the game. Just like the first game, you must rise in the ranks to become the boss. There's a little more storyline to this game than the previous one and looks like there will be more side missions. That all makes sense considering that this is a newer game.

There's a new blood mechanic, too. In the first game, you lost humanity when you killed someone you had fed on, well now you have to worry about what the host is feeling too. The new game mechanic now takes into consideration whether the person you've just fed on needs something or wants something or is just waiting for the bus, minding their own business. 


I'm excited to see what this game holds, yes it's basically a redo of one of my old favourites, but I'm happy to see the past game get new fans. They've even talked of them bringing out a redo of the Redemption, which would be great to see. 

You can preorder the game and get bonus content, and for PC there is an early 24 hours release of the game, and you can with the season pass within your preorder.

"Borderlands 3!" yell that in a crowd and you may get trapped in a frenzy of excited gamers. There is a good reason too. 2K has always blessed the gaming community with Borderlands, and I say blessed because the games are immensely popular. If you haven't heard of them, then let me give you the lowdown.

We had Borderlands one where you had to travel a distant planet - Pandora, to hunt down an alien vault.


Then you had borderlands 2 which you had to travel a distant planet - Pandora, to hunt down an alien vault. 

And now you have the third one, where you have to travel Pandora and hunt down an alien vault. Sound good? Good, then let's continue. 

The game brings the same old game mechanics that you loved from the borderlands series, but this time there feels more need to hide behind objects then just walking up to an enemy and shotgunning them in the face (good old times they were), which is good! It's a shooter game, so that was always expected.



2K has still kept their humour and the game even when in situations that are nowhere close to real life, it still makes you laugh out loud. Which is one thing I know I'll miss when I'm finished playing, and the new characters just add to that fun. The new heroes of the story are Amara, FL4K, Zane Flynt and Moze. They (like all borderlands) have their own backgrounds and their own skill trees.



And you have the non-playable, the Antagonists. No longer will you be battling it out against handsome jack (sorry girls). The new ones are Tyreen and Troy, the Calypso Twins.

There are so many makes of the game that I will only put three below.

CD Projekt, the company behind the game Cyberpunk, has said in an interview that the player will create gender natural or transgender characters. Included in the Metro article, they noted that you will also be able to gay relationships. This all sounds very promising for CD Projekt as they have had some criticism over their other games such as The Witcher series. 




Cyberpunk is also getting multiplayer, but this will come after launch. 








Not only can the world around you adapt around you, but the characters relationships with you can go different ways depending on your interactions. 


Formats: Xbox One, Playstation 4 and PC


My View:
I like the idea behind this game, and it makes so much sense to prolong the release date to make a better version of it. One thing I know for sure is this will be a Witcher 3 level of sales or maybe more now that they plan to include multiplayer. I don't think I'll be playing the multiplayer though. I've never played with others, and when games have multiplayer, they lose their storyline (not always the case). With a release date, next April lets hope that they live up to their expectations that we all have.
