Review Star Wars Outlaws (Xbox) - Robust Stealth & Immaculate Vibes Make For A Super Star War
Hokey Religions And Ancient Weapons Are No Match For A Good Blaster At Your Side, Kid
Alright. Let's not beat about the space bush here. We genuinely thought that Star Wars Outlaws could have turned out pretty bad. A mediocre-at-very-best sort of affair. Just reskin any old Ubisoft-style open world game with Star Wars stuff and be done with it...
