For the last couple years, I've been desperately craving a good open-city game, the kind that arrived with such regularity in the Xbox 360 era that we foolishly took them for granted. Yes, I know that Grand Theft Auto 6 is due to launch later this year. But I'm after something more arcadey and knockabout, like Watch Dogs or Sleeping Dogs or something else about car chases with 'Dogs' in the title.
I'd hoped that MindsEye would be that game, and clung to that hope right up until release. Sadly, all the scepticism around it proved justified, and MindsEye was nowhere near ready when it released in May last year.
