Metro Exodus
While its transition to a semi-open-world structure may make for a radical change from what fans may expect from the series' third installment, Metro Exodus expands on what has made the series so unique from anything else with a compelling mix of action, stealth, survival, and horror. Much like how...
God Eater 3
God Eater 3 makes for hours of fun if you can get past its repetitious environments, typical anime-style graphics, and poor storytelling. The gameplay really is fantastic but it is under a blanket of blandness that made it hard for me to enjoy God Eater 3 to its full potential....
Gathering the necessary resources to fulfill a Genesis mission can take a lot of time, especially if you end up getting pushed back by hostile invasions. There is a base sense of joy to be had from making the numbers go up, but I never completed a Genesis mission and...
Dragon Marked for Death's biggest hindrances are the fact that the single-player experience sometimes suffers due to multiplayer focused design and splitting the game into two packs may also segment the player base or fill online servers with too many of the same fighters. Despite these problems, Dragon Marked for...
Wargroove is a delightful tactics game. Its je ne sais quoi is its ability to draw you in, teach you, and make you a better player. Chucklefish has made an approachable turn-based strategy game that carefully teaches you its rules without being cruel. You'll end Wargroove a better commander than...
Fitness Boxing
Fitness Boxing just suffers from feeling inaccurate, even more so when punches and dodges aren't correctly registered by the Joy-Cons. It is safe to say though, Fitness Boxing is perfect for those who want to lead a healthy and active lifestyle, but if you're looking for some casual punching fun, stick...
Vane
I normally don't have problems with experiential games like this; in fact, I love games like Inside, Ico, and Shadow of the Colossus that Vane is clearly pulling from. That being said, Vane just ends up being a mishmash of impressive visuals and a few intriguing concepts that never really...
While the expectations for a Mario game have been raised in a post-Super Mario Odyssey world, that shouldn't drive you away from experiencing one of the Wii U's earliest hits with New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe. Filled with well over 150 levels between the base game and the New Super Luigi U...
This remake of Resident Evil 2 revives and modernises the classic survival horror game, casting you as Leon Kennedy and Claire Redfield as they attempt to navigate their way through the Raccoon City disaster that's turned the population into zombies.
Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes might not have been the game in the series that I was hoping to receive a few years back, but it's no less a fun return for one of my personal favorite characters in gaming. Even though combat and level design are easily the...
So there you have it—we're late to the party, but Return of the Obra Dinn is one of the best games of 2018. There are a good number of people who may not digest game criticism the same way we journalist folks may, so to be fair to us, Lucas...
Sadly, this is not that game, despite having laid the groundwork for some elements that I would like to see fleshed out in other games. Double Cross is fairly superfluous, sci-fi platformer that's just adequate enough to get by, and that's exactly what makes it so frustrating when you know...
