With a ten dollar price tag for PlayStation Plus members, don't expect to get a ton of mileage out of Whispering Willows. Unless you get stuck looking for a way to cut through some vines or get lost in a maze of hedges, the horror puzzle game shouldn't take more...
The only real gripe to be had with the game is that the batmobile feels like the least polished aspect of Batman: Arkham Knight. It has its moments, but the vehicle combat is too basic and the controls are too finicky to say it’s a worthy addition. Rather the batmobile...
Heroes of the Storm succeeds where its predecessors have failed by making a MOBA that is appealing to the non-MOBA crowd. Gamers are welcome to be as competitive as they want in the game's ranked matches, while the more casual crowd learns the ropes in the Quick Match option. As...
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt doesn't deserve a perfect score - there are just too many technical problems - but that doesn't take away from what CD Projekt Red has accomplished. The Witcher 3 is messy, highly emotional, and incredibly addictive. Barring any huge surprises this fall, The Witcher 3...
Splatoon is a game that will flourish based entirely on the number of continued users it maintains and the prowess of its online system, the latter of which was hit or miss during our pre-release playtest sessions. Still, this unique take on the shooter genre is one that shouldn't be missed by...

Thankfully, Not A Hero makes players want to take on all comers. Roll7 has made an addictive, if occasionally frustrating, title that packs plenty of punch, and the satisfaction felt when completing a level is terrific. Not A Hero may not constantly tickle the funny bones, but its lighthearted satirical moments and...
In addition to the fairy hunt, the game rates each completed level run from one to three stars. Players need to collect nearly every sphere in a level to gain the three star rating, which unlocks silly things like concept art and other out of game assets. Despite the not...
Those are rare occurrences, however. For the most part, Invisible, Inc. functions perfectly, and when all the pieces are working together, there's no feeling quite like it. Carrying a wounded agent who possesses some vital info to the extraction point, enemy guards hot on your heels, is exhilarating; successfully pulling the escape...
Toren
That’s Toren’s biggest struggle in the end: it’s inability to build off of what are largely some very basic concepts. The story, the visuals, and most importantly the gameplay all feel like the first step in a long process towards developing a fully realized game. However, rather than continue to...
That is, of course, a minor criticism, and it shows just how effective a title PixelNAUTS has created. Lost Orbit is a highly addictive, free-flowing gem that manages to toe that marginal line between challenge and frustration. The game may prove too short for some, but Lost Orbit is nonetheless...
However, Infinity Runner has a certain appeal, even considering its faults. There's a sense of creativity that shines through here, from the game's atypical premise to its well-meaning attempts to integrate a compelling storyline into an endless runner. Anyone desperate to play this type of game on console will be...
