Packaged together with some light customization elements and loot drops (stronger weapons and better gear, for example), Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris is a serviceable tomb crawling experience. Its concept is not nearly as novel the second time around, but the addition of four-player co-op is sure to...
In the end, the game perfectly blends a fun look and great baseball mechanics that can be played by everyone. The Ego system opens the game up to being a suitable 'child’s first baseball game', while also presenting a welcome change for the most hardcore simulation baseball players. We can’t...
Overall, WWE 2K15 is a hit or miss experience. The misses may not seem all that numerous, but because they affect many of the core gameplay elements, they carry a lot of weight and make it hard to see WWE 2K15 as anything but a disappointing step backwards for the...
Assassin's Creed Rogue
The gameplay or story aren't guilty of missteps or shortcuts, with beats in both the historic and modern sides of the campaign sure to please the most devoted fans of Assassin's Creed lore. But whether it's a case of Black Flag's novelty wearing off, or simply a less ambitious goal...
Despite being short on content, Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker creates an atmosphere that'll keep players smiling throughout. The levels may not be overly challenging after a few minutes of deliberation, but there are so many memorable portions in the title that it's easy to get lost in the tiny worlds that Nintendo...
At the end of the day, LittleBigPlanet 3 is a proof of concept more than anything else. The game shows that the power of the PS4 can deliver stunning levels and that these new characters can keep the formula fresh. We just will have to wait until a fourth game...
With a critical path story line alone that takes up to 50 hours to complete, BioWare has gone above and beyond the demands and expectations placed upon them (while charting a course that we hope Mass Effect will also follow). We've yet to play through everything the game has to...
If you've played World of Warcraft at any point in the past and it didn't suck you in, we don't necessarily think that Warlords of Draenor is going to be the expansion to win you over. The game is much more accessible at this point thanks to simplifications to group...
The bottom line is that, despite its reused assets and its notable flaws, Far Cry 4 is a hugely entertaining and addictive experience. It's a "just one more" kind of game that's constantly persuading the player to complete just one more story mission, or grab just one more collectible, or...
After nearly a dozen releases, the LEGO franchise has found a concept and a set-up that work well, even if it doesn't stretch the limits of gameplay ingenuity. It is for that reason that LEGO Batman 3 serves as a solid entry in the library, but not an exceptional one....
Brighter than Unity's ambitions, perhaps, since the sacrifices made on the story front are clear. But it's still an impressive sandbox, and does its setting justice. Rough edges or no, Assassin's Creed Unity is a technical step forward, and likely a title every fan who's made the leap to next-gen will want...
Again, it's worth highlighting that those who were looking for Call of Duty to be more like its competitors or to completely change its identity will find no such drastic changes here. Rather, Sledgehammer Games has taken a near future setting and used that to bolster combat, mode selection, and...
