It's hard to imagine it going down as anything other than a true classic both for Square Enix and for Nintendo.
A quirky, fun game at its core; one which will poke fun at its own expense and yours, so long as you're able to laugh with it.
SoulCalibur VI is a fresh game which also hits the nostalgia chords very well.
An extremely faithful adaption of a true Nintendo classic from the company's early years, with some well-needed changes to justify the full price tag in today's gaming landscape sprinkled on top for good measure.
Shenmue III ironically becomes a breath of fresh air by remaining rigidly focused on what it used to be.
Saying that a game based on the franchise feels fresh might sound like a hard sell, but that's what Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot manages to achieve.
Even as a first outing for a game based on this highly entertaining intellectual property, One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows feels incredibly lackluster.
A fantastic experience for anyone who enjoys fighting games, and probably a great one even if you're not a big fan of the genre.
A neat game for anyone who is a fan of the series.
A highly entertaining Metroidvania-styled platformer with fantastically witty writing and amusing dialogue.
A highly innovative, amazingly well-written, perfectly scored game with engaging characters, fun areas, and a very satisfying battle system.
