Divinity – Original Sin : Enhanced Edition – Review

When I first heard of Divinity Original Sin heading to console as an Enhanced edition package, I don’t mind admitting I was less than inspired, While I’ve regularly spent more time than I’d care to admit with titles like Baldur’s gate, Icewind Dale and Diablo, I’ve never felt the style of game carries over very successfully to console.

Sadly it’s hard to know where to…

The sole dungeon crawling mode allows you to select your character from an Assassin, Shaman, Warrior or Wizard, and the inevitable…

Telltale games have become well known for their amazing collection of Lego adventures, and while the promise of the Skylanders inspired Lego: Dimensions sounds like a fresh injection into the franchise, Jurassic World follows the tried and tested system of throwing together some well known content and presenting an inspired adventure game that’s suitable for all ages.

Bullfighting is one of those sports activities that still raises many question marks over the well-being or in certain regions intentional death of the bulls.
