That said, none of that makes up for the excessively floaty controls, bad camera that makes everything harder than it should be, completely disconnected story elements, and overall feeling of frustration that overtook any fun I could have had playing this. If you are a hardcore fan of anime and...
Is this a great game for visual novel newcomers? Probably not. Having an entire half of the game focused on mostly boring slice-of-life isn’t doing the game any favors in hooking in genre newbies. Those that are fans of this format, those who go in knowing what to expect, will...
Overall, I really enjoyed Dark Devotion. One of the things I love about 2D action games is learning a level like the back of your hand, and what I love about roguelikes is picking a starting build and trying to go as far as you can with it. This marries...
Rise of Industry offers a very detailed industrial corporation sim that will certainly appeal to serious simulation game fans who will undoubtedly get a huge number of hours of play out of its different game modes and then some with its mod support which is present from the beginning. That...
Yes, the mechanics were done well, but the repetitive music and the control hiccups had a way of grating on me after a while. The game was enjoyable but just slightly bare. A few more varied musical tracks over the different stages and tightening up of the controls would go...
While I can’t say I like that the game feels like it’s hiding its true conclusion behind future DLC, the package that we have right now is still damn fun to play through. If you’re not averse to some over-the-top violence, Katana Zero is definitely a game worth checking out.
Considering that I’m limited in my exposure to this franchise as a whole, I found myself engrossed in what this game has to offer. This is a decently crafted side game with enough heart to make it competent enough to play, but a tasty side of fanservice for those who’ve...
I can say that this is a musou game that I’ll actually go back to after this review is done…which, I believe, is a hell of a seal of approval for a game in this genre. Here’s hoping the next inevitable entry in the Extra/Extella series steps it up even...
If you were intrigued by the Vita version but held off on playing it, Overdose is obviously the best way to go about it. There’s enough cleaned up here for really hardcore JRPG fans to take a look, and I can’t really say that this is a bad game not...
Aside from that, though, I can see bringing out Dead or Alive 6 again as more of a party fighter than anything else. There’s not much here to train you up to pro level without really putting in the time to study the game, but the basic functions are easy to pick up...
Toejam & Earl: Back in the Groove is definitely an odd title. It has a focus on exploration over combat, and embraces randomness in a way that keeps things exciting. While it’s likely not for everyone, it’s definitely a unique game in this day and age, and is worth a...
There’s been well-documented controversy concerning the PC release of this game, but putting all that aside, Metro Exodus is definitely a game worth the space on your hard drive. With nary a dull moment, and plenty of suspense in both story and gameplay, this is an experience well-worth checking out.
