[ad_1]

Summer continues, and with this hot heat we seek to cool off by going to the pool, the library, visiting museums or staying at home closed shutters. And that's good if you've chosen the last option since Major Nelson has released a great batch for the Games With Gold titles this August. Come on, we climb into his crate, we have fun scaring ourselves by trying not to spoil the paintwork of his body, and if you get there it's all to your credit.

Dead Space 3 (Xbox 360)


♦ Developer / Publisher: Visceral Games / Electronic Arts ♦ Genre: Survival -Horror, Action
♦ Released: 08/02/2013 ♦ Players: 1/1 to 2 ♦ Test: Tof ♦ Availability: 1st to 15th August


Scenario

The adventure of Isaac continues three years after the events of Dead Space 2. Now he lives recluse, hidden from the government and also unitologists. But he will not stay long alone as some of Captain Norton's team members find his trace and tell him that Ellie taking part in a mission to which he refused, has not given any sign of life for several days.

Tof's opinion on the title

In the end, some might think that fear is less present in favor of the action but there is a sign that does not deceive: we really have trouble to release the joystick. The action is supported and the gameplay is varied. We also appreciate the moments of exploration without danger, just to rest a little. In short, here is an opus that, in the continuity, makes us have a great time and that's the main thing. Yes we liked the game. One could certainly blame him for a tendency too pronounced to the action but one takes a real pleasure to traverse this adventure, between fear, exploration and dismembractions jouissifs. The coop mode allows the most timid to be accompanied in these dark places. It's Dead Space and we like it!

Disney Epic Mickey – The Return of the Heroes (Xbox 360)


♦ Developer / Publisher: Junction Point Studios / Disney ♦ Genre: Action, Adventure, Platform
♦ Released: 19/02/2013 ♦ Players: 1/1 to 2 ♦ Read our tests (three in total) ♦ Availability: August 16 to 31


Scenario

The mad scientist is now back in Wasteland, and strangely, he says he wants to redeem himself. However Mickey and Oswald are not fooled, so they will ally to discover the truth, but also to find out who is the author of the earthquakes that ravage the World of Desolation.

First opinion on the PS3 version

The note reflects a sort of average between the solo game and the game in pairs. We make the point of ignoring the change of artistic direction, which goes from the almost gloomy darkness of the first part to the colorful cartoon of this one, but that should not hide the heavy errors of the game in terms of playability. It's really, really, a pity, but this Epic Mickey is almost inferior to the first part, and we can only advise you if you are sure to play with someone. Second opinion on PS Vita [19659016] This version Vita brings new features that can raise a little the rating badigned to the show opus. The offered features may seem anecdotal but they have been well thought out and it's already good. And then those who did not know the license will really appreciate the principle of the game leaving a lot of freedom in the conduct to follow. A good game for the Vita Last review on the Wii U version

About 5 months after the release of the game on other media, this version Wii U made us wait. The only problem is that it does not offer significant improvements or even optimal use of the gamepad. Still, the game is nice and will appeal to fans of the Disney world.

August's favorite


♦ Developer / Publisher: Ubisoft ♦ Genre: Action, Combat
♦ Released: 14 / 02/2017 ♦ Players: 1 to 8 ♦ Test: Phil ♦ Availability: August 16 to September 15


For Honor – Standard Edition (Xbox One)

Scenario

1000 years ago, a cataclysm struck this world, ravaging the territories of three peoples (Vikings, Samurai and Knights), as well as a great part of the population. Then followed conflicts between the three peoples who persist from year to year. Today the warriors do not even remember the reason for this war, but they continue to fight.

Phil's opinion on the title

For Honor is a real success. For once, Ubisoft has been bold in abandoning its usual games "sandbox" to get out of his comfort zone and propose a demanding title and ultimately quite innovative in its playability. Of course, this remains a niche game but we trust the publisher to "live" For Honor with additional recurring content. It is easy to perceive the additional interest that the game would take with one or two additional civilizations. For once, I'll trade the bastard sword for a sharp scimitar!
