As a result, it’s fair to say that Madden NFL 16 is as complete a package as the current-gen platforms have seen thus far. It’s the best playing iteration, the best looking iteration, and it’s likely to give players far more value than any prior release. And given that last...
Gears of War: Ultimate Edition is an extremely familiar game that manages to feel new thanks to The Coalition's vision for a fresher Gears. Just when something begins to feel stale the game changes and provides players with a wholly unique task or a gigantic set piece to draw them...
But at $15 on current-gen and PC digital storefronts, Mega Man Legacy Collection is an essential purchase for anyone with even a passing interest in Capcom’s classic series. The presentation is top notch, in that it doesn’t tamper with the visuals one bit, and the new additions offer replayability that...
And that in itself is a unique concept and should make Until Dawn appealing to a lot of horror fans. Make no mistake, this is more of an interactive movie than a “game,” but that doesn’t mean it’s not worth experiencing. If the concept sounds appealing, then give Until Dawn...
As someone that has greatly enjoyed the previous games in the series, Toy Soldiers: War Chest is a disappointing experience. The forced use of Uplay for much of the online content, DLC purchases being locked to the account that purchased it, and a myriad of technical issues hamper the quality...
The Swindle is a visually beautiful and enjoyable rogue-like game for the experienced, but may not be the best choice for players who've never tried games like Spelunky or Rogue Legacy before. The learning curve, especially if it's the first time someone has tried a game like this, may become extremely...
For as much as the game's setting is beautiful, living alone in its empty world feels very bleak. If the story went on any longer than a handful of hours, it might be too depressing to handle for some gamers, but the short campaign seems the perfect amount of time...
Picking up and playing Galak-Z: The Dimensional is an experience not easily encapsulated in a few words. It’s challenging, whimsical, and a great throwback to a time when combat was deceptively simple. That being said, the game will not be for everyone. The aforementioned challenge and the game’s billing as...
Rare Replay is exactly what's been advertised and it's so modestly priced that it's easily one of the biggest no-brainers in gaming. Anyone that was around to experience these original games will find more than enough nostalgia to warrant picking this up, while those being exposed to Rare's backlog of...
Q.U.B.E: Director's Cut
Q.U.B.E. Director's Cut doesn't bring any additional "new" features to the table (aside from the time trials, voice work, and fantastic score), but the original product's core gameplay still shines on its own. The game's narrative is suspenseful and the puzzles are fantastic brainteasers. For just $9.99, the puzzle platformer...
But Velocibox's design isn't completely perfect (but it is pretty close). As addictive and as devilishly difficult the game is, the speed of its levels (and the tile design on the walls of some of its earlier levels) may cause some players to get a headache. It means that as...
Although the game boils down to a walking sim with a puzzle component, the unique setting and mechanics make it worth a playthrough. The game suffers a bit from the power of its primary mechanic because looking around becomes a real risk in the middle of puzzles. Averting the player's...
