Gears 5 review: more than just another nostalgic sequel

Gears 5 is a fun sequel with a few glaring issues. Our US chums reviewed it on Xbox One… Lets start with the positives:Gears 5is the most visually stunningGears Of War game ever made.

Control review: astonishing at times, but lacking refinement

With Control, Remedy steps into some seriously weird sci-fi territory. Our US chums review it on PS4… Essentially, its a worst-first-day-of-work-ever sim. Ad content continues below Gunplay is standard fare on its own. But combined with Jesses superpowers, its a bit more free-flowing and open to creative improvisation. Each action is limited by a cooldown time, which forces you to constantly vary your approach. This all works pretty well. But whats lacking here, ironically, is a sense of empowerment....
