Still, Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX is a high quality collection that will enthral new players and offer those who haven't picked up the series in a long time an excellent reason to revisit it. Minor technical issues and dated gameplay aside, it is hard to find a compilation with...
It's obvious that these are meant to be bite-sized variants of various Mario Sports titles, and in that regard the game succeeds. Indeed, anyone looking for a menagerie of sporting options on the go will find this software to be a worthwhile venture. Still, every outing will inevitably draw comparisons to solo sports...
Ultimately, however, Zero Escape: The Nonary Games is more of the same from Spike-Chunsoft, which is not a bad thing at all. The games are still engaging, fun, and in the case of Virtue’s Last Reward, have some of the most challenging puzzles in the visual novel genre. Zero Escape:...
Snipperclips: Cut It Out, Together! may come to a close too soon, but it makes for a wonderful reprieve for anyone that wants to settle into a different type of game on the Nintendo Switch. Taking its $19.99 USD ($28.19 CAD) price tag into consideration, the finished product is an absolute...
Ultimately, however, any of the shortcomings present in NieR: Automata are obscured by the haphazard genius of its barely-stitched-together post-apocalyptic world. The presentation, innovation, and unabashed love of the strange all coalesce into something that looks like what would happen if Hideo Kojima attempted to design a Final Fantasy, and...
This is something that should have come pre-installed on the hardware gratis to better acquaint consumers with the tech. Instead it's been given a slightly discounted price point and shipped in time for the launch of the Nintendo Switch. Perhaps if the company added enough content to justify the cost, it...
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild isn't just for longstanding Zelda fans, it's the pinnacle of an open-world experience that will appeal to anyone looking for a great game. An overall lack of voiced dialogue and an initially tricky menu layout are easy to come to terms with and overlook...
Dark Souls, Far Cry Primal (or any open world Ubisoft game), Uncharted – these are just a few of the games players will cite when finding points of comparison for Horizon: Zero Dawn. But the Guerrilla Games developers have made sure that its game still feels unique by comparison, thanks...
Technical issues and the lack of content in Blitz aside, Halo Wars 2 is a fun game that is the best bet for RTS fans looking for something to play on Xbox One. The campaign is engrossing from start to finish, the multiplayer matches are consistently exciting, and thanks to...
However, it's worth playing For Honor right now, because it's an experience that's quite unlike anything out there at the moment. It brings together a variety of different influences, but puts them together to create something quite unique. It's a melting pot of elements from fighting games, MOBAs, and team-based FPS...
In fact, the setup of Sniper Elite 4 often calls back to something of a bygone age of gaming, but not necessarily in a bad way. Aside from the sniping itself, there's a lack of complexity here, and although gamers used to a wider buffet of gameplay styles may find this...
Nioh
Nioh may borrow Onimusha's art style, Dark Souls' challenging combat, and Diablo's loot-farming, but it combines these elements in a way that makes it feel like a unique experience. Everything comes together to create a wholly engrossing action-RPG that's hard to put down, with Nioh standing as an impressive return...
