VGChartz's Joseph Trotter: "As good as S&S2 threatens to be, the wireless connected elephant in the room overshadows proceedings, offering a tantalising glimpse of what S&S2 could have been rather than a celebration of what there is. Fun, accessible, intuitively controlled gameplay with dazzling graphics present the best of the Wii U, but the lack of an online mode suggests a mistrust of the potential benefits and support available for the console.
It’s a strange decision; one made all the more extraordinary when you consider the game is only available as an online eShop download. The choice to make it a Wii U exclusive was brave, but one gets the feeling that this is not the final, ultimate version of S&S2."
So I played loads of games at this years EGX and its starting to feel like a distant memory but I have one more article for you on a foursome of games that we really enjoyed. So first off lets start with the co-op puzzler We Were Here series.
Daan is back with a vengeance... and to talk about downloadable titles again. Yeah, that too.
From the review: "Swords and Soldiers II is an entertaining RTS game that doesn’t take itself too seriously. That being said hardcore RTS players might find this one a bit too “silly” for their tastes, though players new to RTS games might find it enjoyable, especially with the option to go through any stage on Easy Mode. Either way, while not the best RTS game out there, it is an enjoyable one."
