I had high expectations for Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game Complete Edition and, even with my grievances, I can see why it is so beloved all these years later. It imbues the heart and character of the Scott Pilgrim IP with plenty of content for both new and...
For the $20 price, the Collection of SaGA Final Fantasy Legend is still a fun bundle of games that serve as a wonderful time capsule for handheld RPG adventures. Players can once again easily experience Square’s very first million-unit seller with The Final Fantasy Legend, and hear the surprisingly great...
That said, it accomplishes what it sets out to really well. This is a great game for players who might be lapsed, more casual gamers, or kids. Don’t let that scare you away, though. If you have any sense of nostalgia for the DS era of 5th Cell games like...
Override 2: Super Mech League isn't going to reinvent the wheel in any way. It's a simplistic party game with button-mashing combat and cookie-cutter fighters. But at its best, it is a fun and fast-paced brawler that offers a really enjoyable time with other people. It's not going to take...
Unto The End is a must-play for all the Souls-Borne fans who wouldn't miss anything in that FromSoftware vein. More importantly, it could be an excellent gateway title for players who haven't played a Souls-like game. Winning combat in Unto The End is a matter of being smart rather than...
Godfall
There’s something special here, but the gem that is Godfall is buried deep underneath a pile of issues and lackluster content. Godfall hamstrings most of its good ideas, crippling the game out of the gate. Offering multiplayer but no matchmaking or cross-play, throwing numerous enemies at you at a time...
Orwell's Animal Farm
Animal Farm, like the novel it's based on, has a very clear stance. It doesn't shy away from the themes of anti-fascism and totalitarianism. Games as a medium have the opportunity to tell a wealth of stories. Political ones like this should always be welcomed no matter what the current...
Puyo Puyo Tetris 2
Between Puyo Puyo Tetris 2, Tetris 99, and Tetris Effect Connected, one thing is clear; we are in a golden age for Tetris fans. Each major offering gives players something different. Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 gives players an unparalleled slate of local multiplayer content that elevates both Puyo Puyo and Tetris from just addictive, hypnotic puzzle games to fun, bombastic, colorful...
Twin Mirror
I really wanted to enjoy my time with Twin Mirror. However, besides its beautiful presentation, the game lacks any of the substance that made all their previous adventure games great. Sam Higgs just isn’t an interesting enough character to get behind when most of his dialogue choices are whether he...
Worms Rumble
This absence does feel like a massive oversight especially for a release commemorating the 25th anniversary of the franchise. Overall, the package is kind of a mixed bag of really fun frenetic gameplay and just as many missed opportunities that could've been something special for longtime fans.
Cyberpunk 2077
"We are alarmed and saddened that a game reviewer had a seizure triggered by Cyberpunk 2077, before it was even launched," said Epilepsy Action director of external affairs Louise Cousins. "The game features rapidly blinking lights and other animations that could cause seizures in people with photosensitive epilepsy." Cousins' statement ends...
However, unless you just really need something new to try out, I might wait for either a sale or to see what Romero Games does to update it post-launch. There were moments where I had an absolute blast, but the entire package is a bit lacking. So, just like my...
