The player gets to control one of three characters throughout the game, each of which controls identically apart from one special ability. Melee and ranged combat are both used equally to dispatch the variety of monsters the game throws at players. While there are plenty of different weapons to acquire...
Rise of the Tomb Raider
Rise of the Tomb Raider is a great improvement on the 2013 design and continues to develop Lara from where the first game left off. The game blends third person shooting with exploration and gives the player a lot of freedom in how the different scenarios can be approached. Rise...
I enjoyed the Guitar Hero: TV components a lot more than I thought leading up to the release of GH:L but it isn’t without some pretty major faults. The first downside to this streaming music video system is: there are no options to purchase any additional content for offline play....
Harmonix has restarted the DLC machine and is releasing more tracks to buy on a weekly basis. There is even plans in the works to bring over most “on disc” tracks from previous Rock Band games. This is great news because most of the tracks bundled with Rock Band 4...
SOMA contains an interesting world with wonderful atmosphere and aesthetic. The puzzle solving gameplay lends some variety while progressing the story, but never in a way that stands out on its own or provides a strong challenge. Finding all of the audio logs, reading all of the story bits is...
The striking visual style pairs very well with the story telling. The silent protagonist awakes in a room where the walls, floors, ceilings are all made of white and gray cubes. These cubes transform and move in a variety of different ways to form staircases, elevator platforms and ultimately the...
Acid Nerve expects you to replay Titan Souls. It only took me 2h 33m to fight my way through the final boss with around 250 deaths and 15 kills. Upon completion new options like “Hard Mode” and “Iron Man” unlock to give some replay value for those dedicated and skilled...
The glitch gun reacts differently to each enemy. In some cases it increases the hit-box of smaller enemies making them easier to destroy, while in other cases it makes larger enemies more agitated with a smaller hit-box. I found poking and prodding the systems a lot of fun, and accidentally...
Instead of a huge library, Harmonix wants players to build a lean list just filled with the songs they want to dance to. Unfortunately this only works if one person plans on playing the game, or a group has very similar tastes. Hopefully Harmonix will release larger track packs with increased...
Unfortunately when the game makes you simply drive the game loses most of it’s magic, and there is a game mode specific to this. Gas Guzzlers strips away the use of weapons and has drivers race for first place. This isn’t enjoyable because the action of the game grinds to...
The story of The Wolf Among Us is based upon an existing comic book fiction, however even if you have not heard of the Fables comic book series you can still enjoy the familiar fairy tale characters living in a gritty New York City. Characters from stories like Snow White...
The content in Legends is more extensive than the previous game and even includes 40 levels from Origins that have been remastered visually and mechanically to make them feel like they belong in Legends. Unlockable Lum-generating pets and a variety of characters and levels to unlock for a very lengthy...
