Nintendo Switch 2 has its summer game with a remarkable remake of Star Fox 64.

Skate Story is a striking game at first glance, but players will see that its true beauty lies deep beneath its protagonist’s glassy veneer.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is a delightful surprise in what has been an amazing year for Nintendo's iconic mascot. The game offers the right amount of challenges while remaining accessible to a wide cross-section of players. It can be enjoyed as a single player and also as something to be...

Madden NFL 18 is one of the best Madden games I have ever played. It’s accessible to new players and offers brand new experiences for seasoned video game football vets. There are some years when Madden just doesn’t have the right feel, and I usually will be the first to...
