NBA 2K Playgrounds 2: PS4 Review

NBA 2K Playgrounds 2: PS4 Review

Released by 2K Games
Platform: PS4

Looking like a bobbleheads version of a basketball game, NBA 2K Playgrounds 2 is a sports sim that's more about the broad fun, than the hard-as-nails sports approach.

Meshing arcade sensibilities with a 2v2 mentality works well for this candy-coloured game that's more about fun thanks to its association with the 2K Sports brand.

At the start, you get access to trading cards, which helps you unlock certain players, and teams to help you build a roster. Nicely packaged, and smartly deployed the cartoon edges give NBA 2K Playgrounds 2 a feeling of fun to begin with.

As for the gameplay itself, with some 300 players and ten new playgrounds from around the world, the throwback mentality of the game is complemented with some depth that puts it on a par with feeling like something new, other than just a blatant rip-off.

Games themselves are pacy, and require some degree of skill to ensure you get the most out of your roster. But equally, the game's open to those who've never balled before, and who know the names of Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant.

Earning in-game currency means you can build a roster, and you don't have to engage in the horror of microtransactions to get by. You can if you want, but it's not a necessary factor to enjoying the game.

With a shooting metre to help with the hoop shots, you'll need to learn some basics, but they come quickly, and the games shoot by speedily thanks to their ease of playability.

Ultimately NBA 2K Playgrounds 2 is a pick up and play, no experience necessary (but better if you want to play long term) title that's fun and disposable balling at its best.

Soulcalibur VI: PS4 Review

Soulcalibur VI: PS4 Review

Released by Bandai Namco
Platform: PS4

The fight is back after a six year break away from major platforms.

And to all intents and purposes, there's little different from most other fighting games out there - except to say that Soulcalibur VI plays solidly and looks good.

With a roster of 20 characters, and a slot for over 100 customisable characters (some may argue it would have been better the other way round), Soulcalibur VI's sights are squarely on the smackdown more than anything else.

Rebooting the series and taking it back to an alternative 16th century, this brawler offers up a new mechanic in the Reversal Edge which allows you to halt the combat and choose another method of destruction for your opponent halfway through the fight.

Equally the characters can now use smooth animation and various weapons of choice to unleash hell on their combat game, meaning fluid fighting overcomes any feeling of fighting deja vu.

While the single player story is split into two different options - Libra of Souls and Soul Chronicle - each offers a different take on the singeplayer ideal. Libra has a very RPG-esque feeling, and suffers from an almost static-like way of telling the story, that's occasionally too dry. Chronicle is less wooden, and helps add to what Libra has had to offer.

Ultimately, Soulcalibur VI plays like a good brawler should - its 3D animations are both fluid and suitably OTT; it's probably better as a fighter with friends after a few drinks than a singleplayer, heads down campaign game, but until someone radically overhauls the fighting genre, this is pretty much up there.
