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.

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.

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.

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.
