Cory Wells's Reviews
Madden NFL 19 is ultimately the complete Madden of the current generation.
The Crew 2 comes off as appealing when looking at a spec sheet of what it has to offer.
Frostpunk is a unique strategy game that offers both an engaging and addicting element.
PlayStation 4 is the only place to get the best and most authentic baseball experience there is.
Gravel offers fun racing with a variety of cars and environments.
Milestone has a solid footing with Monster Energy Supercross – The Official Videogame. If the team offers continual support that carries over to new titles, this series has the potential to be something special.
While a lot of focus on VR games comes from playing games in a first-person view, it's great to have a change of pace with a real-time strategy game that includes an FPS element.
NetherRealm Studios has continued to evolve fighting games.
Skyrim offers the most complete VR experience on PlayStation 4, but it comes at a cost.
Monsters of the Deep is a beautiful tragedy in terms of a VR experience. The visuals are stunning and it could have been a great fishing simulation, but ends up being lazy and broken. A fishing VR game is a good idea and the controls may be better with the motion controls, but trying to fish is a hassle even when a sense of consistency is established.
EA and Ghost Games set out to make the quintessential Need for Speed by bringing in aspects that worked in the past and has mostly succeeded.
Gran Turismo Sport boasts the best realistic online racing experience, but those looking for something offline with a career will want to look elsewhere.
NHL 18 introduces two major modes to its solid array of dated options.
NASCAR Heat 2 offers a lot to do for players. It might feel a bit rushed, but it's extremely addicting and fun. The racing is a consistent experience and Career Mode features aspects that haven't been seen before. While it may lack the options of true simulation racers, the admirable A.I. should make up for that. Top that off with some excellent visuals and a coupon for a real race ticket, and Heat 2 continues to trend in the right direction.
Clap Hanz's effort to evolve Everybody's Golf is a successful way of thinking outside of the box.
Resident Evil Revelations was a step in the right direction five years ago, but has since worn out its welcome.
F1 2017 is the best representation of a complicated sport that Codemasters has offered. Offering its deepest and most authentic career mode, it draws players into the sport like no other F1 game ever has. You will learn the in-and-outs of the sport and feel like an engineer yourself. F1 2017 successfully hits 60 FPS at 4K resolution with a sacrifice in graphical detail. The racing is true-to-life on the track, but the A.I. is severely lacking. Fans of the franchise will really enjoy 2017.
Cities: Skylines – PlayStation 4 Edition brings an excellent city-simulator to consoles offering an amazing interface and excellent visuals. Everything is straightforward in terms of gameplay and the game feels like a modern take on the older and excellent versions of Sim City. While the console version may lack some of the content the PC version does, there is more than enough here to keep anyone busy.
This is possibly the biggest update that a Madden game has ever seen.
Milestone has taken MotoGP 17 in a great direction with a valiant leap.
