Dead Rising 4 takes the series in a different direction that may alienate its loyal fans, and attract those who didn't like previous installments. The game now tries to give you as many weapons and zombies as possible, and reduces the challenge even further by removing story timers the need to save your game. Still a fun experience though, just not as fun as it used to be.2016

A simplistic but beautiful take on the Assassin's Creed formula, one that might've benefited from being unshackled from the series it's based on.

A simple and charming fusion of two puzzle classics, but one that only incrementally improves upon the previous release.

7 / 10 - Twin Mirror

A polished mix of different genres, with an interesting story that loses steam. Still, a unique, though short, experience.

A decent return to the series even if it doesn't push the series in any way forward. Technically and mechanically flawed but the world and story with its twists and turns is what makes it worth trying.

A fun, brief adventure that draws on the genres strengths but doesn't really reach the heights of the developer's Until Dawn, never mind surpass it.

As a Games as a Service offering featuring cinema's hot new franchise this is a bit of a letdown, not because of a lack of spirit or ideas, but because of a lack of polish and direction.

A disappointing remaster that removes more than it adds, but this is still a charming and fun game, even if its sheen has been dulled.

A new direction for the series, one that plays well and is rich in content, but lacks the polish or personality of the best in the genre.

A plot , dialog and character driven experience just like the original, but it's a slight step backwards where every aspect feels rushed, but it still is an enjoyable and unique experience for those willing to overlook its flaws.

A game that is both alluring and infuriating at the same time, brimming with energy and creativity and bogged down with finicky controls and a busy interface. As a remaster it doesn't go enough, but for those willing to put up with its shortcoming it offers some of the most epic and innovative moments in any game.

The plot and battle system might be simplistic, but it does its job in giving the game a driving force. This is an overall engrossing experience and the closest thing to playing an anime.

A great addition if you're really into the game's battle system and crave challenge, but otherwise a weak offering especially considering the asking price.

A joy to play through and through and the perfect antidote to today's climate.

A simple and soothing experience that makes up in charm what it lacks in challenge

A remarkably faithful adaptation of a fan-favorite anime, with a surprisingly tight and enjoyable battle system. The only letdown is the weak amount of content, but it can’t be denied that the limited budget went to the right place and favored quality over quantity.

A passable conclusion that provides a degree of closure to fans who gave stuck with the game since the beginning. What it lacks in quality it kind of makes up for in lore.

Interesting plot with good main missions and filler side missions that are too similar to those of the main game. Recommended only to fans of the game.

3.5 / 5.0 - Far Cry: New Dawn
Feb 14, 2019

An enjoyable game that never rises to anything more for anyone familiar with the series, and for newcomers Far Cry 4 might be a better choice.

Like the first one, second DLC does not bring with it anything new, and is aimed at those who are looking for an excuse to return to the game in the form of an interesting story, but for those looking for something substantial this also isn't it.
