Captain Tsubasa 2: World Fighters is a fantastic arcade sports game that proves an over-the-top presentation, satisfying mechanics, and a compelling adventure can win over even the most unlikely soccer fan.
But if you have played any of their past games or are even a fan of Dead by Daylight which is so janky I don’t understand how it maintains such a large player bas—sorry, but if you can deal with that stuff then Halloween is probably going to be for you, for everyone else just hold out for some patches.
If you’re looking for a smooth, fast-paced arcade shooter to turn your brain off to after work, this absolutely isn’t going to be your jam. But if you have a group of friends willing to squad up, communicate, and push through some undeniable euro-jank to get to a deeply rewarding tactical core, there is a lot of fun to be had here.
In the end I was disappointed by Echoes of Aincrad, the pacing of the story combined with what felt to me like a dull world were the major reasons as to why.
If you are a Hellraiser fan then you are already waiting for release day, but for those that are new and curious; if you can handle the extremes that this game offers then I invite you to check it out, they have SUCH sights to show you.
Either way though if you are a fan of cozy games and want to try something a little different, you should tray Grave Keeper.
I loved the fact that every encounter was a puzzle to figure out and while I failed more times than I’d like to admit, even in those times I still had a good time; and I can’t think of higher praise for any game.
Well, the question remains though; is Super Limit-Breaking Neo worth it? Yup, it sure is. Especially if you already have Sparking Zero then you are a connoisseur of DBZ games. And as such it would just be uncivilized of you to not also have this DLC that will complete the package, even if the single-player mode is just kind of meh. All the characters and their interactions more than make up for it in my opinion.
Zero Company is now to be counted among that group, with its mix of excellent gameplay, wonderful immersion and one of the best Star Wars stories we have had in a long time.
Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 should be counted among the few really good Aliens franchise video games that we have; and I say that even with the small issues I’ve experienced.
I expected more from a game called Mexican Ninja yes, I was given a Mexican ninja to control but I was really hoping that the developers would lean into the complete wackiness of the story and its characters.
If you are a fan of Hotline Miami and its sequel; then I feel pretty safe in suggesting Kusan: House of Wolves to you. As I said the game doesn’t do anything inherently wrong but I just could not gel with the combat rhythm and precision that it demanded of me.
Kynseed isn’t a game that you ‘finish’ in the traditional sense though. It allows players to build an impressive family tree and continue playing through that family for generations. It offers a completely open way of enjoying its world, much like real-life players have freedom to do what they want and build or destroy relationships.
Starseeker: Astroneer Expeditions feels like an interesting evolution of the Astroneer formula. While it retains the colorful exploration and resource gathering of the original it takes those elements and wraps them in a cooperative experience.
With top notch audio design and fantastic visuals the developers manage to tell a story with lots of depth and heart without using any dialog, subtitles or wall of text. Theropods is a game that demands your full attention and doesn’t disappoint you once it has it.
Ultimately Panzer Knights Commander Editon feels like a really hollow experience. As an arcade tank battler without the grind of PvP gameplay I expected more than the lacking combat and boring narrative. There is some fun to be had in mindlessly blowing up tanks though, as long as you don’t look for anything more.
Ground Zero Hero has taken over my free time as the game I play in spurts here or there. It is just as addictive as Vampire Survivor was when it first dropped but even more so.
70s Style Robot Anime: Geppy-X feels more like an experience mainly because it’s so much more than just the video game here. What makes this game succeed is the great combination of the anime visuals, music, and storytelling and without those crucial items, I doubt if Geppy-X sees a remaster in the first place.
Bellwright succeeds because it understands what makes management games so rewarding. Every hour invested pays off in visible, meaningful ways. Your village grows, your influence expands, and challenges that once seemed impossible gradually become manageable thanks to careful planning and steady progression.
I’m not going to sugar coat it, Nickelodeon Extreme Tennis: Next isn’t a great game. Sure, there is a few hours of fun to be had but after that you will more than likely never turn this on again.
