NHL 14
With much better collisions and a vastly improved fighting minigame, NHL 14 is becoming more gamey and less of a simulation, but that gives it a distinct and interesting flavor compared to its predecessors. Many long-standing complaints with the series have been addressed, though AI still needs work before it’ll...
Fans of golf history will love the new mode, but most gamers today probably prefer to play as teenage Tiger Woods instead of a lot of old white guys they've never heard of. While PGA Tour 14 might not be as exciting as the last couple of years' versions, it...
Whereas the console version of Sonic Generations is a blending of old and new mentality in a fast-paced speed fest, the 3DS version is mostly just a Sonic Rush game where both playable characters happen to be Sonic. Fun platforming and nostalgia are all up in the game, but it’s...
Need for Speed: The Run has a good racer inside it. It can be exciting and visceral, and there were numerous times in the game where I stopped and said, “Sh--, that was cool.” But all this awesome racing action gets somewhat lost amid the nonexistent story, the dumb/scripted AI,...
I’m not the biggest Ace Combat fan, so maybe that’s why the changes in Assault Horizon intrigued me. It’s not as well polished as previous games, but this new step is more interesting than if it had been yet another Ace Combat game. Dogfights are exciting, the helicopters are interesting...
NBA 2K12
No sports game has ever made me this excited to play. Seriously it's all I've been able to think about for the last week. The realistic, challenging, gorgeously animated gameplay carries across a cornucopia of modes. Playing legends of the past, the stars of today, and my own personal NBA...
The Gunstringer comes swooping in, ready to defend Kinect supporters and justify their purchase. It’s one of the few games I would recommend buying a Kinect for. You’ve never played an on-rail shooter like this. Hell, you’ve never played any video game like this. The Gunstringer combines humor, a deep...
I’ll hand it to SEGA: Rise of Nightmares is an ambitious title, and it’s even functional for the most part (aside from the most basic of actions, walking). But ambition and basic functionality alone don’t make a game good. The ironic thing about Rise of Nightmares is that the control...
For the longtime fans, this is what you like (though even fans should be disappointed at the lack of variety in Gundam 3). There are online co-op missions and a long single-player campaign with hundreds of characters and mechs to upgrade. New gamers, however, should expect more from a video...
Virtua Tennis 4 is a fun tennis game, after you dig through all the fluff: Mini-games and a needlessly complex career mode. If you already got your fill of Virtua Tennis 3 then there isn't a lot of new stuff in here, which is a shame, but it's still a...
TRON: Evolution is barely a TRON game. It's a repetitive cyberpunk Prince of Persia. The platforming and combat are flashy, but both feel awkward to control and get really competitive. All the cool things you'd expect in a TRON game are restricted to the limited multiplayer modes. If you've got...
