Payday 2 involves robbing banks, trafficking narcotics and rigging an election. The thuggery all sounds fun but it’s just too bad the connection issues, lackluster storyline and less than stellar visuals holds the experience back.

Nero is an absolutely jaw dropping interactive narrative that is sadly held back by simple puzzles, choppy gameplay and an even choppier framerate. Still, if you can get past these issues there’s a strong story buried beneath it all.
