With a critical path story line alone that takes up to 50 hours to complete, BioWare has gone above and beyond the demands and expectations placed upon them (while charting a course that we hope Mass Effect will also follow). We've yet to play through everything the game has to...
The bottom line is that, despite its reused assets and its notable flaws, Far Cry 4 is a hugely entertaining and addictive experience. It's a "just one more" kind of game that's constantly persuading the player to complete just one more story mission, or grab just one more collectible, or...
Brighter than Unity's ambitions, perhaps, since the sacrifices made on the story front are clear. But it's still an impressive sandbox, and does its setting justice. Rough edges or no, Assassin's Creed Unity is a technical step forward, and likely a title every fan who's made the leap to next-gen will want...
It may be a divisive experience, but for fans of Bayonetta's mystique and over-the-top style, Bayonetta 2 is an essential experience. It has its share of flaws that are consistent with the genre's history, but in the end, these complaints aren't enough to upend the forward momentum that Platinum Games has...
NBA 2K15 is both tough to love and hard to hate. It’s loaded with the familiar modes and content that fans have come to love, and when it’s on, it is some of the best virtual basketball anyone’s thumbs have ever been a part of. It just seems so hard...
Had The Evil Within been released ten years ago it might have blown people away, but in 2014 it simply feels derivative. It's not particularly scary, the gameplay is frequently frustrating and the story isn't compelling enough to incentivize pushing forward to find out more. Hardcore survival horror enthusiasts should definitely check it...
Despite its namesake, Horizon 2 seems to fit alongside competition like Need For Speed: Rivals - with its next-gen visuals and features also preparing a head-to-head bout with Ubisoft's The Crew. But as outlandish as the action may get, the strength of the Forza tradition provides a link for simulation...
All gripes aside, CounterSpy is a good game that is so close to being a great game. When the its strengths are firing in unison, CounterSpy is an experience that can easily be recommended to anyone. With a vibrant visual presentation that jumps off the screen along with a sense of humor and...
When games like BioShock Infinite and The Last of Us are also forcing the player to confront questions and issues they may have never dreamed of considering prior to playing the game, it just doesn’t seem like enough yet, or that games aren’t quite there yet in the grand history...
There is still work to be done both in and out of the actual fights, but this is one game every UFC fan will enjoy; after all, nothing compares to knocking your best friend out cold to the elated screams of commentators Joe Rogan and Mike Goldberg - let alone...
Supergiant's vision this time around is less clear - but in this case, that seems to be a sign that the studio has increased its ambition, and is indeed pursuing a story that is more confident in its abstract and ethereal story. In a way, it's as if the poignancy...
Ultimately, Tropico 5 features a number of improvements in an attempt to separate itself from the previous games in the series. The humor of the series remains and the addition of progressing through eras give a feeling of accomplishment. The core gameplay mechanics are largely unchanged though, but there is definitely...
