Some design choices are also questionable, but in the end, I found the overall package contained a decent amount of content and had some fun collecting new spells and unlocks with some people online.
Overall, Fe is a decent little game. While there's not much to do except solve a puzzle, travel to the next puzzle, solve it, it still has some interesting things going for it. I just really wish the camera and platforming was a bit better, and while I understand what the developers were going for with the minimalist tutorial and explanation in both gameplay and story, I could have used a bit more just to help out in some instances. It's not a bad game, but it's not a very memorable one either.
When it's all said and done Under Night as a whole is a great fighting game.
The presentation is top notch here and really gives off that old school SNES feel.
Once again, being a fighting game fan really helped me get into this game a lot more than what I originally thought. It is a competent fighting game where I feel the standing game is still a better experience then the ground and submission game.
Iconoclasts is a pretty fantastic game. The story is fun and interesting, the controls are tight and near perfect, the art and animation is beautiful, and many of the puzzles and traversal are both fun and challenging at the same time.
All in all, Romancing SaGa 2 is a decent RPG with some very interesting mechanics that were revolutionary for its time.
Dead Rising fans should most certainly pick this one up, and people looking for a fun zombie killing game will find it here too whether it's with a sledgehammer with a cement blade strapped to it or kicking them to death as Cammy from Street Fighter, you're going to have a pretty fun time.
I would suggest sticking with the PC version if you can. If you do decide on getting the console version, be warned, you will need to get used to the controls and even when you get used to them, you will still find them difficult to use.
It has some flaws with its combat, but I still found some combos and strategies to be fun to execute. If only there were some people playing the online, it would have made the game much more enjoyable, but until it gathers a following, solo players will finish its offerings within a few hours. It's a hard sell currently, but for those looking for a different take on the fighting game genre, there's much worse games out there to play.
It's still a great game and with this version, there enough new to keep things fresh for all the players.
Ben10 is a decent little game. It's not going to blow anyone away, but it's definitely not a horrible time either. In fact, I enjoyed some of the alien powers a lot and I think a fan of this franchise can have some fun here.
The driving and actual gameplay is still fun and well done. There's actually a very good open world racing game in here, it's just bogged down by level progression and needless grinding that is only there to extend the gameplay time and to get people to spend real money to potentially get upgrades for the cars.
Hand of Fate 2 is a well done sequel. It adds a lot more to the game while keeping things both familiar and fresh at the same time.
It really all boils down to if you have nostalgia for these games or have a genuine interest in checking out the early days of point and click adventure games.
In the end, Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus is a fun first person shooter with some issues here and there that was just enough to get on my nerves. It doesn't shy away from the hard subjects, in both the story and the gameplay, and I think that anyone who enjoys a good FPS should pick this one up. It's well worth the time and money even with the issues it has.
I really enjoyed my time with Mages of Mystralia. It's a neat little game that has a lot of heart.
Rogue Trooper Redux is an ok game. It has some interesting ideas with its mechanics, and while the story was bland, I was never bored with it.
All in all, it's a decent ride of a game and done really well, but I find that because of the high price point, only the shump veterans should look into getting it.
I really enjoyed my time with it and any platforming fan will too.
