Andrew Reiner's Reviews
Shorter than any other Uncharted game, yet just as powerful and memorable
Lives up to its name, succeeding both as a riveting golf experience and a narrative that sinks its hooks into you
The reward loops are addictive and continually open up new things for the player to explore
Astral Chain is fun from start to finish, and gives the player plenty to chew on in terms of side missions and post-game content
Dead Mage belts three home runs: one for the story, another for the action, and the last for the deep and interesting RPG elements
Not as long as the previous entry, but better streamlined. The Spider-Man action is superb, but the threat Miles faces isn't as interesting or potent
An open world you can get lost in and continue finding new things to do
An incredible continuation that is a showcase of clever stages and pitch-perfect twitch reflexes
It's technically a survival game, but it feels more like a grand adventure that is free of many of the genre's frustrations
It's as long as any other Ratchet game, but it feels like it flies by in a flash, and is a hard one to put down
One of the better choice-driven games in recent memory that makes you feel like you have ownership over your actions and the narrative flow
Well worth the wait and better than the original, Psychonauts 2 hits its stride early and never loses steam
The world is fun to explore, and your time is rewarded with secrets galore and hats for your little Rot followers
We’ll never know how Live A Live would have fared in the U.S. back in the day. Flash forward nearly three decades, and I can’t recommend this revitalized relic enough. It’s that good. This is another must-play Switch RPG that entertains in ways I didn’t expect and kept me glued to the screen for well over 20 hours.
The biggest and most enjoyable entry in the series. It's great for single player or co-op sessions
The best Lego video game in quite some time is also the best toys-to-life game of the year
Leveling up guns is ridiculously fun, and the breadth of modes keeps this experience from feeling repetitive. This is a game you can sink tons of time into
Jedi: Fallen Order tells a new Star Wars story and takes players to new places. It sits nicely alongside the Rebels and Resistance TV shows, which also dare to be different
The amount of depth can be confusing at first, but you have plenty of reasons to keep playing in the endgame
An intriguing and suspenseful first look into the Forresters' lives that hits all of the tones that Telltale and George R. R. Martin are known for
