And that’s it. It’s Bomberman, man. It feels like an arcade game with a $50 price tag. The campaign isn’t as strong as it could be, but there’s enough here to keep the series going until Konami can muster up a little more for the next iteration.
This isn’t your typical boiler plate open world cash grab, rife with to-do lists and busywork. Zelda: Breath of the Wild is an evolution of the formula for both eastern and western philosophies alike, and a new blueprint.
Do you want to slice some demons into little meat chunks as a troubled badass, and perhaps missed out on the great Dreamcast and PS2 renditions of Berserk? Get Band of the Hawk. Seeing the story continue past the Golden Age is enough for an enthusiast to buy in. Otherwise,...
Nioh
With its emphasis on challenging combat and light storytelling elements that are at times bordering on parody (in a good way), Nioh feels like a true successor to the Ninja Gaiden series and fills a nice void that Souls left behind. Did Team Ninja ever leave? Whatever the case might...
Arc System Work’s staunch dedication to the retro aesthetic for Double Dragon IV is admirable, but still falls short of the mark even when juxtaposed to several of the series’ own entries. Punch and kicking dudes as Billy and Jimmy still works, but many elements of IV just feel a little too off-brand...
While the new engine doesn’t sport a consistent framerate and you can pretty much skip the Chi movie, Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue is a healthy enough serving of what’s to come in Fragmentary Passage, and bundles in one amazing core entry that everyone should play. It’s a massive risk...
If you’re going physical, $30 is going to be a little too rich for what’s otherwise a straight retro game with some new content, but Wild Guns Reloaded is a treat. Whether you’re the type of score-attack addicted player who wants to rocket ahead in the leaderboards, or you have three...
I can really get lost in the world of Let it Die, and I think I’ll be playing it off and on for the next several weeks at the very least. It begs you to come back, and given the platform in which it’s been distributed, it’s something that can...
Like Team Ico’s past work, talking about The Last Guardian too much inherently drifts into spoiler territory, but we have years to unpack this. For now, I’m confident in saying that although it isn’t their best work, there really aren’t too many directors out there like Fumito Ueda, and I hope for...
As I’m typing this up now, I’m seeing a future where people buy Final Fantasy XV due to some of the more positive assessments (like this one), and walk away disappointed. Because if you loathe JRPGs, XV is not going to make you a believer. In a way it’s silly that Square...
Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare does just enough to stay above the curve and somewhat make up for the appropriately soulless Ghosts. The zombies team did an incredible job with Spaceland, and the multiplayer still ticks all of the right boxes with an ample locomotion system that has since been...
If BlazBlue: Central Fiction is the end (and I don’t think it will be), it’s a fitting one. It packs in pretty much everything past games have offered, and then brings in several great new characters and one of the biggest stories in fighting game history.
