Back 4 Blood is a great multiplayer shooter for the masses that ultimately neglects its single-player crowd. Playing through the campaign with friends or a legit human team can make a big difference when engaging with this title. It’s best to stick with multiplayer for this title since it’s not solo-friendly. But with literally everything else that comes to mind (from Swarm to the cards and online matchmaking), it’s essential to recognize this game as a damn good time. The bugs are few and far in-between; they definitely won’t get in the way of having a good time – unless you’re playing the campaign solo, which I do not recommend for it is a bore. But with the gore, characters, mutated Ridden, weapons, and teamwork, Back 4 Blood packs plenty of punches and even more bullets.
Verdict: Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time is a bit shorter than expected, but it’s still a nice installment overall. It’s essentially an extended episode that shows fans a version of the ending that many wished had happened, and it does a decent job in succeeding in that. As a big fan of Samurai Jack, I thought this swift adventure was a good dose of action and emotion, despite the few flaws that can be overlooked. Nonetheless, it’s a fun nostalgia trip for any time-traveling enthusiast who remembers the tale of a samurai they simply called Jack.
Verdict: Verily, Disintegration offers new ideas and explores a subgenre mix of both FPS and RTS that is both intriguing in action but poor in delivery. With the lack of customization and a neglected multiplayer mode, the replay value is almost non-existent. I played through the campaign once, and I was done with the repeated gameplay before the credits rolled. Going back to a mission for a lovely revisit isn’t in my agenda, and I can only hope that the developers come up with noteworthy downloadable content to keep Disintegration afloat. Unfortunately, it seems like the game is dying out quickly. Not enough people are playing it, and its lack of a fun factor might be the cause for that. If you want a sci-fi narrative that asks some thought-provoking questions, the campaign might be something that several players will find appealing. Anything beyond that, though, players will find a plain endgame and nothing to help them determine if they should play more of Disintegration. Perhaps V1 Interactive’s next title will be an improved experience if they happen to develop a project in the near future. But for now, Disintegration both hits and misses the mark of introducing a hybrid...
Verdict: There are many words that I can use to describe Neversong, and I believe memorable might be the most fitting one. With its gorgeous musical score, slick side-scrolling action, evocative and spooky writing, mystifying art style, and amusing puzzles, I can’t seem to wipe away the images the title has etched into my memory. For such a short game, I was quick to develop an interest in its design and ultimate delivery. I only hope that Thomas Brush comes up with more intriguing concepts to further explore into, especially with ones that deal with mental instabilities and overcoming them that can be told within a single game.
For fans of pure mech action, there's enjoyment to be found in MechWarrior 5, but by and large, this is a game with a lot of unresolved issues that ultimately hold it back from being anything more than passingly fun.
