Joey Davidson's Reviews

Hey there, I'm Joey. I've been writing about video games on the internet for more than a decade now. You'll find my work, both reviews and features, on all sorts of sites. I play a ton of video games across as many genres as I can. I started with Paperboy on the NES as a kid, and gaming has been a non-stop passion ever since. I own and cover all platforms. It's been terrible for my wallet.

Sparklite is an indie roguelite that offers great progression mechanics to a much-loved genre. It has flaws, but fans need not worry.

Splatoon 2 is fun. You'll love it in spite of the minor blemishes.

Frustration aside, GEM is a solid arcade shooter with a brilliant art design, decent tunes and a nice rhythm to its gameplay.

More like 1-2-Snore

As far as I'm concerned, the two best original games for the Nintendo Switch are The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Snipperclips. The latter isn't as spectacular as the former, but it's still a great game.

Here we are with work from Creative Assembly that's actually fun. I won't suggest that it revolutionizes the RTs genre the way that the original Halo Wars did. That game managed to make RTS titles fun on console, something that I didn't even think I wanted until I actually had it in my hands. Creative Assembly further innovates on that already revolutionary formula.

If you're looking for a challenging Nintendo platformer or you got your fill from the Wii U version, you're better off looking elsewhere. This is a solid game that runs well on the 3DS, but its extras don't really warrant a double dip or a purchase from a player looking for difficulty.

Not too much more frustrating than a puzzle game that has you spam clicking and interacting with every single object in a given space in order to solve its

Horizon Zero Dawn is, at times, the best game on the PlayStation 4.

Buy - Yakuza 0

It's only January, but Yakuza 0 has been marked as a contender for one of my favorites for the year.

If only the combat were better, more dynamic and more precise, I would have loved this game instead of simply liked it.

The Last Guardian is a wonderful, grueling ride that I loved more than I thought I would.

Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS is a strong, albeit limited, version of the incredible Wii U affair.

Pokémon Sun and Moon hosts welcome changes and annoying tweaks, though it's an adventure I loved having.

Watch Dogs 2 isn't a downgrade. Watch Dogs 2 is a damn good video game.

Here I am in 2016 with a Call of Duty campaign I actually enjoyed. Perfect? No. Solid? Yes.

This is a neat game, for sure, and you should put it on your wishlist at the very least.

Buy - Owlboy

Owlboy was an indie game before the indie game movement really caught on. It's also really, really good.

Respawn created a fun campaign, addressed complaints from the stress test and packaged a great experience in Titanfall 2.

Job Simulator is about taking remedial tasks, giving players ridiculous tools and letting them goof off. It's wonderful.
