"All told, Lara Croft and The Guardian of Light is a fine mixture of old school Tomb Raider and more arcade-orientated mechanics. While this attempt could have gone horribly wrong, Square Enix have produced a finely crafted game, with the end result being a solid and entertaining action adventure for players to get their teeth into."

Before we start splashing the cash too early however, let’s first take a look at the Xbox One and Xbox 360 freebies on offer with the Xbox Live Games With Gold of January 2019. As we kick off the new year, just how good or bad are the titles nestled within our monthly subscription?"
Major Nelson: For the month of January, Xbox Live Gold members will receive four new free games - two on Xbox One and two on Xbox 360 - as part of the Games with Gold program.
Celeste looks cool, as for the rest...meh. another lackluster month for GWG.
Hopefully I don't get an..oh, it's an Xbox article, no worries.
Celeste is awesome. However they gave that Lara Croft game before. This is the first time that either PS+ or GWG has hit us with a duplicate and it's not cool. It doesn't matter if some people missed it back then it's not fair for those of us who have been members since the start and already have it. First they give us an old OG Xbox game last month and now they hand us a duplicate. Not cool at all.
First time in about 6 months that im actually looking forward GWG. Celeste alone makes it worth being excited over.
I haven't played any of these titles so I'm excited to give them try. Far Cry 2 is the only one of that series that I skipped.
Carlos writes: "It’s already been a great year for Xbox One Backwards Compatibility, but we’re still only a few months in and that means there is plenty more to come throughout 2018, with many more of our favourite titles still yet to be added. Whilst the latest additions aren’t more of the recently promised titles that will be getting Xbox One X Enhancements, they still continue the trend of frequent releases, and it's always good to see old Xbox 360 becoming available on Xbox One. The question is though - are they games that we should be heading back to?"
Vanquish is the best third-person cover shooter I ever played. The whole game is a pure adrenalin rush.
