Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War III takes a few steps back in time to make one step forward. It hearkens back to a lot of older design choices from the first game, and attempts to build upon other RTS conventions in the process. Not everything works (especially the strict adherence...
As an important piece of gaming preservation, I’d almost say that Disney Afternoon Collection is worth picking up just for the DuckTales and Chip ‘n Dale sequels, but the truth is nearly every game deserves to be played at least once. For now I can only dream of Adventures in Magic Kingdom, Little...
Robo Recall
Robo Recall‘s few flaws just feed into the notion that I want more of it. I’m sure it cost a pretty penny for Epic to develop, and with the install base right now of VR, it may not even fully pay off. But if more deep-pocket developers are able to...
Banjo Threeie is probably never going to happen, but after playing Yooka-Laylee I’m fine with that for the first time in 17 years. Playtonic’s first foray is rough around the edges, but the center is so full of heart that it’ll melt away the more you play it. How much of that roughness...
Annoyances aside, MLB The Show 17 continues to iterate without the technical baggage a few games back. Beyond the attempts to monetize players through microtransactions (which mainly work as boosts), I didn’t really have any major issues with any given aspect of the game. We’re only a few more days out...
If you didn’t dig Persona 4, this is your gateway back into the Velvet Room. Persona 5 manages to differentiate itself not only from the rest of the market, but its own franchise in a lot of standout ways. It still has the rigid backbone of a JRPG, but the organs,...
If The Ringed City really is the end of Souls, it manages to hang its head high with the rest of the series. From Demon‘s to Dark III we have more than enough macabre settings to pore over in the years to come. They aren’t all created equal, and some...
Still, I felt compelled to beat Bullet Soul several times over after my first completion, bolstered by the loud audio (including cheeky catchphrases) and bumpin’ soundtrack helmed by legendary composer Kenji Ito. It’s not the most challenging game around (especially if you opt for co-op, as no concessions are made...
With an easy mode, truncated (basically non-existent outside of “defeat the AI called Shira”) story, and a multiplayer option, Ghost Blade HD is a great gateway drug for anyone on the fence about getting back into shmups. It has all the mechanical makings of a great shooter, it just lacks that...
Blaster Master Zero is a loving recreation that serves as both a companion and in some ways a replacement for the original. While I’ll always see myself going back to the NES classic for the rest of my days, Zero is a good way to introduce the series to a newcomer...
Just Dance 2017 isn’t a bad port on the Switch by any means. If you have a family that doesn’t mind looking stupid in front of the TV together, it’s easy enough to scrape together a collective of Joy-Con and mobile controllers to have a party (easier than it is...
NieR: Automata is nearly as good of an RPG as it is an action game, which is a mighty tall order. It’s tough to really strike that balance as many action-RPGs tend to favor one element over the other, but Platinum Games, with the help of Square Enix, has tapped...
