LEGO The Hobbit
One of the biggest issues with the game are the boss fights which are comprised of QTE events and frantic platforming sections which can still be frustrating due to the camera angles.
The one thing that I found annoying was that you had to use a Wii Remote as the secondary player. I really enjoy using my Pro controller on the Wii U and i’ve found that most games enable the use of it however Lego Batman 2 does not. I feel...
Just Dance 2014
Autodance introduces video recording to the series. Using the GamePad, you can record 30 seconds of yourself dancing. The game will automatically choose parts of the clip into one goofy clip that looks absolutely ridiculous. You can then share this video to Just Dance TV or Twitter. There is also...
Uncharted: The Lost Legacy is a great standalone adventure featuring two extremely charismatic personalities. There’s a story here that’s brilliantly told with intertwined gameplay/narrative design that I’ve not seen in a game in some time. The intriguing relationship of Chloe/Nadine made playing through the game more than worth it, and...
When entering online I was greeted with the surprise of a daily challenge. This consists of a challenge that has you doing version things to earn XP. An example of this is playing as raven and besting 5 other raven players online in any game mode. This was a nice...
Defiance
You really have to commend Trion Worlds for creating something like Defiance. The prospect of the story aspects are really exciting and I can’t wait to see what happens down the line. The game is rough around the edges but there is no better option for a console lover that...
WWE 2K14
Local multiplayer is as fun as it ever was but unfortunately, online play is still quite broken. I faced an incredible amount of lag which makes it almost impossible to play for a game like this. WWE relies on perfect timing in order to reverse move and kick out of...
The amazing level and character design is what will keep you coming back. The variety of levels and enemies is almost unmatched from any previous Donkey Kong game. The game definitely gets a lot more difficult as you progress but you will find yourself becoming better equipped to take on...
God Of War is a cinematic masterpiece that manages to reinvent and push an already fantastic series to new heights. Barring some pacing issues in its narrative, Sony Santa Monica have breathed new life into Kratos and the God of War series, and I can’t wait to see what’s next.
The LEGO Movie Videogame
Thankfully, The LEGO Movie Videogame introduces a stellar roster of characters. Wonder Woman, Batman, Superman and even Gandalf are all unlockable and provide an exciting burst of gameplay for a brief amount of time. As always, the game is better played with a buddy. It’s easy enough for anybody to...
MLB 14 The Show
The biggest let down of the game is its online system. The developers stated that it was built from the ground up to fix connection problems that the series has been criticised for. Unfortunately, lag is still a huge issue and makes the game almost unplayable online. This is obviously...
The Definitive Edition includes all the previous DLC that was released on PS3 and 360 last year. This includes all of the Multiplayer maps and also the additional costumes that were released. There is one small nit pick from this release. I feel that the developers could’ve tried to ensure...
