The Grand Tour Game

The Amazon used to boast about its invasion into the world of video games, but if The Grand Tour Game should be considered as a benchmark for the quality of subsequent titles, then all competition may remain calm. Based on an extremely popular car show, this racing game tried to mix the film sequences with the gameplay in an interesting way, but it clearly lacked the budget to realize its potential.

The campaign in The Grand Tour Game was closely associated with the third season of the popular show. Every week, when a new episode of the show debuted on Amazon Prime, the game received an update with the corresponding content – challenges, vehicles, clips. To complete all challenges in the game you had to spend as much time as on watching the adventures of Clarkson & Co. on TV, but this time watching was half of the experience and the other half was reserved for the gameplay. Unfortunately, the latter was very poor. The game had an inferior physics engine, irksome controls and unbalanced game modes. The Grand Tour Game resembled more a moderately successful show advertisement than a game that could defend itself and interest anyone.

Wolfenstein: Cyberpilot

It was not a successful year for the Wolfenstein franchise. On the one hand, we got a Youngblood, a major spin-off, which experimented with cooperative gameplay, bet on large amounts of grind and proved to be a large disappointment. In its shadow, Machine Games in cooperation with Arkane Studios has prepared a special new installment of the series designed for VR devices – Cyberpilot. The game somehow turned out to be even worse than Youngblood.

In the game, you play the role of a hacker who, instead of directly fighting the Nazis, takes control of enemy machines and uses them to blow his opponents to pieces. Unfortunately, the creators' ideas were enough for just an hour and a half of gameplay, a large part of which boiled down to a simple marching forward and mindless smashing of helpless enemies with powerful machines of doom. The only more varied stage with a drone, in which a sneaking sequence was introduced, turned out to be poorly designed and irritating. Cyberpilot looks more like a technology demo in the style of the first VR titles than a fully-fledged game.
