With miserable gameplay, terrible story, and utterly unfunny jokes, Narco Road's idiotic antics destroy everything the main game managed to accomplish.
A halfheartedly executed game that tries little and accomplishes less.
An interesting concept is let down by some pretty glaring gameplay flaws.
Causality bludgeons freedom into a pulp and annihilates any semblance of player choice, denying any puzzle experimentation and making for one extremely unappealing game.
Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 is a serviceable open-world first person shooter with some great sniping mechanics, yet it's low production values and lack of polish completely ruin what could be a very enjoyable experience.
A fun, simple game, let down by misguided design decisions.
An extremely unengaging gameplay and bad graphics mine what could be an interesting addition to the pirate genre.
A seemingly faithful adaptation of a German RPG franchise that may be too detached and boring for modern players.
A lore-breaking spinoff that removes most of what makes the new XCOM special and replaces it with short bouts of repetitive tactical combat and bad writing.
An ultimately underwhelming content pack that barely offers enough to justify its price.
Space Hulk: Deathwing is a game full of potential, wasted on terrible creative decisions that pitch the game's strengths directly against one another.
An admirable, yet failed attempt at fixing the game.
A worthy sequel made unplayable by bad AI and the inability to have any direct impact on the people working for you.
A surprisingly inaccurate recreation of London ties into simplistic gameplay and terrible performance to create a deeply flawed and shallow game.
A superhero game where heroes are quite fragile, Marvel's Avengers is constantly in doubt of where it wants to go and ends up arriving nowhere.
Total War: Troy makes some curious changes to the Total War formula, but the less streamlined resource system, extra micromanagement, and weird mix of reality and mythology work against its favour to create a less than entrancing experience.
A slight update to models and textures doesn't solve Mafia 2's myriad problems from a decade ago, nor justify a purchase if you don't own it yet.
A very barebones remaster that is great for newcomers, but unnecessary for owners of the previous game.
Great concept and premise derailed by bad game design and a terrible graphical presentation.
An interesting game that scratches the detective itch, without ever reaching great heights.
