  • Strip away its motion controls and Arms is a fun but forgettable affair, albeit one that you can carry wherever you please thanks to the Switch's portable wizardry. With a pair of Joy-Cons clasped in your hands, it's a different game entirely, becoming on...

  • Brilliant motion controls result in a genuinely fresh fighting experience, The best online game Nintendo has ever released, It looks great, Surprising amount of depth to the combat, Traditional controls don't feel great
  • Lack of single-player content may leave some feeling cold, Annoying arms-unlock system
  • ARMS is a unique-feeling brawler with a surprising amount of depth. It also looks great, combining a colourful flair with some of the most realistic environments and characters. Its motion controls are also a resounding success.Buy ARMS from Amazon UK | A...

  • Abstract:  There's one thing about Arms that really bothers me. Why does everyone have springy arms? What's happened in this sick, twisted, colourful world to result in people fighting each other with extendable arms? I can understand why robotic fighters Byte and B...
