No matter the element, The Crew 2 is a fantastic vehicle in which to master the ins and outs of speed. It’s just a pity that Ubisoft’s new world of varied racing disciplines feels hollow and uneven as it won’t hold your attention for very long.

There’s a lot that The Crew 2 gets right, but also a lot that it hides from players. Here are a few tips and tricks to help get you started on your trek across America's land, sea and air.

RTS games are very very far from being dead, but they’re also nowhere near as industry-defining as they once were. They’re the domain of a niche audience now, a genre for the patient and those who enjoy investing their time into hours of preparation before kickstarting a war on a global scale. Command and Conquer was the very best in this genre, before it was killed off for good.

While plenty of games are shown off every year, the industry still has some BIG titles reserved for the final half of our trip around the sun, culminating in a fourth quarter where the biggest players around go for broke as they attempt to grab some of that sweet silly season revenue.

If at first you don’t succeed and find yourself horribly mauled to death by a lunar landshark, try try again. Prey: Mooncrash takes the core elements of Prey and tweaks them to provide a new and immersive experience that offers a fresh new spin on Arkane Studio’s fantastic game of spacebound paranoia.

Will 2018 end with Activision making enough cash to purchase the moon when Call of Duty Black Ops IIII launches? Probably! This year however, Call of Duty is changing its approach, ditching the single-player and doubling down on multiplayer.

At E3 2018, I got the chance to briefly grill game designer Matt Scronce and senior producer Yale Miller for some answers regarding Blackout, and what exactly Treyarch is aiming for with this ambitious entry into a highly competitive genre with this year's edition of Call of Duty Black Ops IIII.

A darker story, an emphasis on fun over balance and an honest effort to get players reinvested in the hobby of Destiny, Bungie is going for broke with its most ambitious slice of content yet in Destiny 2:Forsaken. While there’s still a lot that needs t be revealed and explored once it launches, design lead Lars Bakken still had plenty to tell me at E3 last week about the massive changes on the horizon.
