Throughout the game's meaty campaign players will find themselves occasionally falling into the age-old stealth game problem of grinding down predictable AI, but the level designs, creative and unique story-driven assassination set pieces and solid gameplay help Hitman: Absolution stand as one of the most fun and rewarding stealth games available....
Hotline Miami is a thrill ride worthy of any gamer's time. The frustration of repeated deaths may wear on some gamers, and the ultraviolent gameplay may, understandably, nauseate others, but the rush of playing a game structured like a combination of all the best and most brutal 80s action movies...
Horizon supports both Kinect and SmartGlass. Kinect integration is smartly limited to navigating the world. Saying "GPS" brings up a small menu that allows players to choose the next event, the nearest event, or the Horizon Festival's central hub as their destination - after that, just follow the arrows on...
Halo 4
Overall, Halo 4 is the game that fans were hoping it would be. It's the best looking installment in the illustrious franchise yet, but the thing that makes this title so appealing is the seemingly endless amount of content that it comes packed with. There's no denying the immense replay...
At the end of the day, Revolution is indeed the best Worms title gamers have seen in some time. However, it's not the game-changer that the title might imply it is - rather, it's an improvement (one that could lead to great things down the line). Team17 have produced a...
As the first major content update launches this week, ArenaNet will be able to start molding Guild Wars 2 into the game that they envisioned it would be. The Guild Wars that launched back in 2005 is a completely different game than the Guild Wars of 2012. ArenaNet knows the...
For that matter, The Journey's voice acting and score are both top notch, as is the on-screen performance of Gabriel during cutscenes, his subtly exaggerated features easily communicating a wide range of emotions and clearly reflecting his state of mind. He's a likable, distinct hero who frankly deserves a better...
As an obviously console-focused game, the inventory menus on the PC are not well designed for the mouse or screen resolution in mind. There are a few graphic glitches in organizing inventory, as there are with texture pop-in and obstacle clipping, but for the most part, Borderlands 2 is a cleanly...
XCOM presents players with a phenomenally entertaining and challenging experience from start to finish. The ultimate end product is a highly strategic combat game with consequences that will leave players on the edge of their seats for most battles, whilst actively proving to the world that turn-based games still have...
Despite some odd menu design choices and a few online hiccups, MVC:O does a tremendous job of preserving the fun and challenging experiences that made both of these games special. It shines a light on a turning point within the history of the fighting genre and manages to let players...
Despite a few issues with the otherwise fun multiplayer mode, Joe Danger 2 The Movie stands out as one of the best games available on Xbox Live Arcade. Completing "Movie Mode" doesn't even scratch the surface of the huge amount of content in this title. With a mode devoted to...
Way of the Samurai 4 is really just a smattering of good ideas and bad design choices. There's a lot to do in the city of Amihama, but it's hidden behind an obtrusive menu system, and further pulled down by sub-par combat. The amount of choice available is a great addition...
