I will be the first to admit that I haven’t played a wrestling game in quite some time. My memories of wrestling are of the cheesy but fun antics of Hulk Hogan, Diamond Dallas Page, Mankind, and the sort. To be honest, John Cena’s angsty stare, which is plastered wherever...
With all of the innovations LittleBigPlanet 3 brings with Toggle, Oddsock, and Swoop, it’s a shame they aren’t allowed to show off their stuff on a regular basis, because they are the best thing to happen to the series in years. It would be nice to see them return in...
Far Cry 4 could have all of the multiplayer elements stripped away and it would still be a very strong game. If you enjoyed its predecessor and didn’t grow tired of Ubisoft Montreal’s open world formula, you’ll have a blast living the experience again.
The reception to Assassin’s Creed Rogue‘s gameplay systems and mechanics will likely vary and mirror the sentiment that the game’s narrative and tonal direction pride itself upon. It’s all just a matter of perspective.
The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth is hands down the best version of Isaac. It improves upon the original, a fantastic game in its own right, in every conceivable way. If you haven’t played Isaac yet, this is the version to get. If you are a fan of the original, these...
Dragon Age: Inquisition not only feels like a fully fledged role-playing adventure, but it’s also packed with fun things to do that will keep you busy for weeks. Having played well over 100 hours, I’m still finding things to do, working on my multiplayer characters, and plotting another playthrough to handle...
If Ubisoft fixes the glitches, Assassin’s Creed: Unity will be a much stronger game, even if the ceiling is a bit lower in general. Unity‘s potential is not as strong as some of the better entries in the series, but it’s good enough for existing fans to continue the journey.
While I think I would have given up playing a Halo 2 remaster on its own after a few months, The Master Chief Collection will keep me busy for quite a while. The sheer number of maps, variants, playlists, and rulesets will keep me interested for months on end. I can...
Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare plays it a little too safe with the campaign, but it feels like a real core entry in the series, and will please fans who are jaded after last year’s release. While Treyarch is still the king of Call of Duty in my eyes, Sledgehammer Games has shown itself...
Mind Zero is in no way a travesty, but despite glaring shortcomings, it’s very average. A premise that sets the stage for an exciting thrill ride gives way to a rickety dungeon crawler with little to offer in the way of combat genius, looting, or even life sim elements. A...
If only there were more variety in the structure of the victory conditions between divergent philosophies, Civilization: Beyond Earth would be a perfect game. Even with that dissonance, it is damn close. The Civilization pedigree holds a lot of weight after all these years, and Beyond Earth more than lives...
Samurai Warriors 4 suffers from the same pratfalls as the rest of the Warriors series on occasion, but the strong offering of content and robust Chronicle mode will keep you interested for quite a while. If you have a friend available to play with locally or online as well, you can expect...
