Erren Van Duine's Reviews
Lightning Returns, but you might well be better off remembering her as she was.
Unknown 9: Awakening is full of originality, but suffers from some frustrating gameplay decisions despite the interesting mystery of its narrative.
Gundam Breaker 4 isn't the deepest game when it comes to the narrative or continued gameplay, but the sheer amount of collectibles and customization is a fine achievement.
While some of its flaws may leave some areas feeling half-baked, Zero Time Dilemma will be something that won't be leaving our minds anytime soon.
An ambitious but flawed RPG experience.
It's easy to recommend Q*Bert: Rebooted to both returning fans and new ones alike. The PlayStation release allows for choice of play either in its classic mode or the more modern version for those who want something a little easier on the eyes. The additional challenges in the Rebooted mode do provide some extra game time, but if you're looking for something a little deeper this isn't quite it. Q*Bert: Rebooted may be a simple game from another era, but its pick-up and play nature can certainly still be relevant today.
Atomfall is an adventurous game that doesn't shy away from its difficulty. It's a compelling survival game steeped in mystery, and despite some unwieldly controls, paints an interesting world to explore around in.
Tales of Graces f Remastered is a solid entry in the Tales of series. While the characters and story can be cliche at times, the overarching themes remain strong, and Bandai Namco's efforts to modernize the game are a standout showing.
Lego Horizon Adventures is at its core a Lego game, but one that branches out from its usual IP stylings to add humor and a bunch of fun gadgets to the Horizon world - all while reigning it into a more condensed experience.
Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney Trilogy is here for the modern age, and although not perfect, it’s an accessible way to experience the series for years to come.
Starfield's biggest strength is its complimentary content - sidequests, exploration, and more will gather your attention for hours despite a less-than-compelling narrative.
NeverAwake is a true shump to its core. Despite some repetition in enemy design, this twin-stick shooter takes on the concept of nightmares and blends it into its visual style and gameplay in a way that rewards players who come back for more.
A refreshing return to form for the storied "Tales of" franchise.
Dragon Ball returns to the game scene with new improvements, characters and adventures.
A bright art style and nostalgia pave the way for Square Enix's latest return to traditional RPGs - with a twist!
These ideas are certainly the products of portable limitations, but in the end they fail to stifle what is in truth a compelling experience.
For what it is, Jamestown+ is a fun game worth its asking price on the PlayStation Network. If anything, it's a fun little distraction calling back to the classic games of yesteryear. Fans of bullet hell certainly won't be disappointed.
Star Wars Outlaws is an ambitious first step into bringing the franchise to an open world. Its engaging story and characters open the door for more adventurers to come.
The new version of Riven is a beautiful addition to the Myst series with addition to detail in its fully rendered environments, and plenty of exploration to be had despite some obscure puzzles.
Dragon's Dogma 2 features a rich world filled with plenty of old-school RPG stylings that remain a fun adventure despite some technical difficulties.
