Puyo Puyo Tetris 2S NS2 Review Gareth Newnham Summary: A lack of an upgrade path for Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 players puts a downer on this otherwise feature packed puzzler Puyo Puyo Tetris 2S is a tricky sell. If you missed it on the Switch, then it’s the best way to play this fantastic, feature-packed puzzle adventure that effortlessly mashes two of my favourite franchises in the genre together.

1 week ago | impulsegamer.com | Gareth Newnham

Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army (XSX) Review Gareth Newnham Score Summary: A bright and bombastic remaster of a cult classic that modern SMT fans need to play.

Technically, it’s the second Devil Summoner game, it’s an action RPG in a wider series known overwhelmingly for turn-based shenanigans, and it’s set in the 1930s.

Hogwarts Legacy Switch 2 Review

1 week ago | impulsegamer.com | Gareth Newnham

Hogwarts Legacy Switch 2 Review Gareth Newnham Score Summary: One of the best glow ups on Switch 2 brings the magic of the wizarding world to Nintendo's new handheld with aplomb. It’s no secret that Hogwarts Legacy on the Nintendo Switch was by far the worst version of the game. To say it struggled was an understatement. The performance was choppy, the textures were muddy, the draw distance was a joke, and the load times were long and frequent.
