Call of Duty Modern Warfare 4 review

It's easy to dislike Call of Duty. Aside from the annual cycle of development, marketing, and controversy that has defined the series identity for the past 22 years, the series has become an integral part of how video games prop up the military-industrial complex .

When you're playing as semi-fictional UK and US troopers, taking part in illegal operations in foreign territory, wantonly executing people over differences in ideology, Call of Duty can feel gross: paper-thin propaganda designed to glorify war and reinforce lines between 'them' and 'us'.

Mouthwashing is finally on consoles and Xbox Game Pass, and it's a Halloween must for horror fans

With a cracking new tactical feature and dedicated UI "strike team", Football Manager 27 is a huge step back towards FM's best form

Welcome back, Football Manager. I've only played half a day or so of it, whistling through my inductions, board meetings and opening transfer window, but already the positive signs are there. Football Manager 27 is a big, much-appreciated step in the right direction. In a way it's a step back - this is essentially the game I wish FM26 had been - but sometimes that's necessary. One back, two forward. At least it's genuine progress. This is a Football Manager game again. Read more
