While the underlying games hold up as well as they ever did, Batman: Return to Arkham as a remasterwas very disappointing -- especially compared to others that masterfully retouch games like Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection or Halo: The Master Chief Collection. Of the two, only Arkham Ayslum's remaster is...
Azure Striker Gunvolt 2 is a very solid 2D platforming experience. It has great controls, great level design, great characters, and interesting dialogue that keep the player engaged. The lack of an autosave feature and clutter on the top screen are annoying, but 2D platformer fans who can get past...

Pac-Man 256 is a fun little excursion for the series that innovates and changes up the formula. Sadly, some of the title's mechanics don't work as well on home consoles as they did on mobile platforms. The multiplayer mode is a fun new addition, but the lack of an online...
