When we first went hands-on with Titanfall we were dying to play more, and that still holds true today. What Respawn Entertainment has created is addictive, thoughtful, and accessible to a wide variety of gamers. It might not feel completely fresh, or deserving of its next-gen label, but the game...
Putting players in control of Dracula in a Castlevania game was a bold move, one that could have made Lords of Shadow 2 a worthy successor to an underappreciated character action title. Unfortunately, some appallingly bad gameplay decisions, a meandering narrative, and lackluster level design weigh this sequel down enough...
As a complete package, Strider offers engaging but basic gameplay, a crisp clean art style, and boss battles that fit perfectly into the Metroidvania genre. It would have been nice if the game added something new to the genre, but as it stands Strider is an excellent entry all the...
And by partnering that solid LEGO brand with Marvel, TT Games has found what is likely their most successful formula: combining a diverse cast of characters with their tried and true gameplay tropes. Fans of anything Marvel has created in the last 75+ years will come away from LEGO Marvel...
That being said, there will be die-hard LEGO game fans who enjoy this release, doubly so if they loved the feature film. It's by no means a bad game, it actually runs silky smooth, looks quite nice on next-gen hardware, and the controls are fluid and responsive; it just doesn't...
Octodad: Dadliest Catch knows exactly what type of experience it wants to deliver and, for the most part, it succeeds in doing so. The mechanics work well and the concept is charming and enjoyable. But a few rough patches will likely keep players from seeing the game as anything more...
Still, even amidst all of the game's standout qualities, there are places it could certainly improve, especially in with the way opponent A.I. reacts. Online multiplayer alleviates that issue, but this is a franchise built around the single player race, and we hope the PS4 will come in to make...
The good news is PopCap has delivered more Peggle, and that will be good enough for most fans. Those who wanted an evolved, or deeper experience, mechanically speaking however, will come away a little disappointed. There is a ton of content, from new boards to new powers to some additional...
Additionally, it should be noted that the game's visuals resemble that of a previous-gen game, and the load times are surprisingly long for a downloadable title running on new hardware. There may be a good idea buried somewhere within LocoCycle, but what Twisted Pixel delivered disappoints on practically ever level.
Knack!
Knack is a PS4 launch title developed to fit a very specific role. It's a showpiece for the next-gen console's power, and has some impressive visuals to boot. But aside from that the title is a bit of a mess, a lesson in tedium that lasts for far too long...
Resogun might seem innocuous at first, but once players peel back the layers, they will see that Resogun is a challenging, yet rewarding, space shooter with a fantastic sense of style. Granted, some players might not find the challenge worth it, or simply find that this very niche genre is...
As a continuation of BioShock Infinite, both mechanically and narratively, Burial at Sea: Episode 1 is a worth playing, even if it doesn't capitalize on its potential as much as fans might hope. The combat is still as enjoyable as ever, if a bit same-y, and the game's stunning detail...
