Probably the best FotNS adaptation and one of the best anime adaptations, but a low budget and slow, meandering plot makes for an uneven experience, one that is capable of exciting you as well as bore you.

7 / 10 - Guacamelee! 2
Aug 21, 2018

An enjoyable and funny game with a decent amount of content and challenge, but lacks a bit of polish and variety.

This is nothing more than a modern way to play the first three entries in the Devil May Cry series, with little enhancement being done to three games that range from good but simple, to simply a misstep and finally a masterpiece, but this will have to do for now.

An attractive offering to fans of Final Fantasy that bring in its characters, worlds and music, with an intricate yet fussy battle system that might no be to everyone's taste, and a meagre single player content that isn't rewarding enough.

As a VR edition the game is a success, especially when tailored to your preferences, but for the asking price it is strictly one for hardcore fans of Skyrim and/or VR.

7 / 10 - Hidden Agenda
Nov 19, 2017

A novel idea executed competently, but a predictable and short plot and lack of features to entice those playing alone and with one friend bring the experience down.

An enjoyable game with a decent amount of content for a budget game, but a lack of polish and character bring the experience down.

A charming and joyful game with a rich amount of content, but a slow and simplistic plot throughout the majority of the game and a seemingly rushed ending, in addition to some dubious puzzles make this, while still good,  an overall inferior entry in the series.

An enjoyable addition that adds to the main game, unlike the first DLC. Combat is merely ok, but for those that enjoyed the main game this is a good addition.

7 / 10 - Knack 2
Sep 5, 2017

An enjoyable experience and a big improvement over the first with decent content and optional co-op make this a great choice. Some technical issues and a lack of character mar an otherwise great experience.

A simple and cheerful game that you'll play to take part in its joy and hum along with its music more than to take on its challenges. Even with its flaws, more games of this kind are needed.

7 / 10 - Farpoint
Jun 10, 2017

One of most immersive VR games where you'll feel like you're really fighting aliens, but the repetitive gameplay with its horde of enemies wears you down after some time.

A unique experience filled with imaginative and visually rich stories that will make you think but won't necessarily go back to once it's over.

3.5 / 5.0 - Fast RMX
Mar 11, 2017

A fast and enjoyable racer that controls well, and for the asking price is adequate in content. With some improvements to its online play and a couple of extra modes it can become a much better game, but right now it's an enjoyable, if flawed, racer.

3.5 / 5.0 - The Crew Wild Run
Nov 25, 2015

The game takes the Test Drive Unlimited concept to the next level, with a huge world brimming with activities and other players, and criss-crossing the US is a lot of fun. The Wild Run addition doesn't add much, but as a package it's a good deal.

3.5 / 5.0 - Far Cry Primal
Feb 21, 2016

A decent entry that retains the series' signature feel, with a large world brimming with activities and chaos, but lacks anything new to give it its own unique feel.

3.5 / 5.0 - TrackMania Turbo
Mar 22, 2016

A fast and frenetic racer that emphasizes quick albeit touchy controls and gravity defying jumps, with a huge amount of content.

The best entry out of all 3, as the emphasis is more on stealth and there is more freedom, but it still suffers from weak combat and AI, and it's easy to fail missions making for a sometimes frustrating experience.

7 / 10 - Quantum Break
Mar 31, 2016

Mechanically this might not be anything special, even with the time manipulation powers, but the world and story are enough to draw you in. This is a game that knows how to paint an interesting world and immerse you in it, with a good mix of fighting, exploration and branching cinematics.

An entertaining game for fans and non-fans alike, but one that suffers from a lack of content and progress incentives. You won't be spending much time with it, but for the occasional game it's a good choice.
