Its oddball humor won’t work for everyone and its technical issues still need to be ironed out, but as a first-person adventure, it hits a lot of the right buttons.
Day of Infamy is one of those games that will quickly weed out players without the patience or willingness to adapt to its more methodical and strategic approach, creating a small but skilled core fan base that should stick with the game for the long run.
DiRT 4 is built for a very specific audience, so if you're looking for a casual arcade type experience, you're in the wrong place. But if you are open to learning the ins and outs of the dirt rally world or are a fan of it already, there's no reason why y
Seasons After Fall is a game you play to decompress. It hits the nail on the head as far as atmosphere but its story isn’t very well explained, and its gameplay loop can run a bit stagnate after a while.
Outside of a few platforming quirks and walls of death, Rive is a slick 2-D Action-Platformer that will kill you every chance it can get.
If you can look past the game's performance issues, you will be rewarded with the best Strategy game available on consoles.
I recommend Abzu to people who have enjoyed the kind of work thatgamecompany has put out because it looks like Giant Squid is here to do the same thing. Some might argue that $20 for 2 hours seems like a hefty price tag, but it's all about how much you can appreciate the little things that go into game design. Abzu is a very good game, but it lacks that same amount of punch that Journey so effortlessly delivered back in 2012.
If you are a shooter fan, you owe it to yourself to play DOOM, just for the campaign alone. The game is a master class in how you design a level; not in how it looks like, but how it functions.
Planescape Torment: Enhanced Edition once redefined what an RPG could be, and getting a look one of gaming's greats is nothing if not a treat. Even if it does show its age from time to time.
Farts. Outrageous levels of social referential humor. These are but a few of the pillars The Fractured But Whole leans on to tell its story, alongside a satisfyingly strategic combat system.
While it may not be entirely original, its fresh setting, smart level design, and limb-targeting mechanics manage to make authentically new ideas in a genre growing with imitators.
RONIN is a difficult Turn-Based, Action Platformer that succeeds in creating a unique experience that demands your full attention.
Pokemon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon are proper send-offs for what could be the last time we see the series on a handheld. Packed with hours of content and a lot more Pokemon to catch, they are more than enough to hold you over until Pokemon Switch.
Inversus can be a part of any gamer’s regular rotation of multiplayer games, it just needs a larger online community.
If you're already a fan of The Witcher, there's no reason why Blood and Wine shouldn't have a place in your collection.
You're going to be hearing a lot about Overwatch for a long time to come, not just because the game is stellar, but because of Blizzard's incredibly long track record of supporting their games post launch. You don't need to wait for a sale, the game's full price carries a ton of value both looking at today and with what lies ahead for the game. If you aren't already playing Overwatch, you are missing out.
