PS3 Attitude: "For decades now, there have been a huge number of chess games available to play on computers. It’s surprising then, that in the five and a half years since the birth of the PlayStation Network, no-one has thought to release such a game on the service; that is, until now."
James writes - "When family and friends come round, the drinks are flowing and the chat grows tiresome, it’s usually time to venture to the board game cupboard. Half the time is spent setting it up and packing it away, but there’s an even easier way to enjoy the world of board games at the press of a button... via the Xbox One."
Neil writes "There are all manner of piece sets and board types available to choose from in Pure Chess, but from today those options have just got a load sexier."
XBA says: Does this one deliver a checkmate or should you en passant on it? Rook no further!
Graphics look good. However anyone really into chess is going to play on a PC which makes it much easier to move the pieces. Not to mention the far superior chess engines that are available for free(e.g Houdini).
