A successful combination of both Layton and Wright. Maybe a little lengthy for its own good, with a story that could have ended a couple of hours earlier, it is nevertheless a great celebration of both series.

Tropical Freeze is a trip to a time when games didn't hold your hand or treat you like some sort of imbecile. It revels in its challenge and while there will be many moments of screaming and frustration, it never feels unfair, and that's what makes this game great.

A few minor annoyances aside, the developers should be commended for not just putting together any old licensed pap and waiting for the One Piece fans to lap it up. A lot of effort has clearly gone into capturing what people enjoy about the anime, coupled with some strong gameplay and you have a worthy package for fans of the series.

Unscored - Strider
Aug 24, 2014

Criticisms aside, it's hard not to recommend Strider for those craving another Shadow Complex-like adventure. It's a highly enjoyable remake that with a bit more polish and interesting combat could've been something even more special.

Unscored - Destiny
Sep 12, 2014

As a base for what may come after, Destiny is a great starting point. It's clear Bungie aim to improve the experience and what they have here is a fine starting point that will hopefully evolve over time. Just don't expect it to revolutionise the genre the same way Halo did.

Unscored - FIFA 15
Sep 27, 2014

And that's the lasting impression you're left with. That while there is a solid football game underneath, the game is so riddled with bugs that it's hard to recommend the game in its current state. And if the demo is anything to go by then Pro Evolution Soccer looks to finally be ready to challenge for the crown once again.

Unscored - Anomaly 2
Sep 20, 2014

Anomaly 2 then is a game well worth having if you've always wanted to see a tower defence game from the opposite side of the battle. Unfortunately the single player while entertaining won't last forever, and the ghost town multiplayer means there's very little reason to return once finished.

Futuridium EP Deluxe may take a little longer to click than the likes of Resogun, but once it does it's an absolute joy to play.

It's all just incredibly dull.

Hopefully the next game will have a story that can match the gameplay.

Oct 5, 2015

One of the weaker platformers for the Wii U where sadly a beautiful game can't hide the rather poor level design.

Nov 4, 2014

Probably Platinum's worst game.

Oct 26, 2015

A decent rhythm game that fans of Persona will lap up and newcomers may be left a little bewildered.

Another solid, if unspectacular episode in the Borderlands series.

It's still Halo. Only with more bugs than you remember.

Nov 26, 2014

Minor issues and short playtime aside, D4 is well worth a look, and one of the few times the "better with Kinect" slogan is appropriate.

This episode is the most amusing yet, but again, comes with the same problems.

Another good entry in the adventure game genre. Just don't go expecting a game changer.

Summary: An interesting opening to what will hopefully grow to be something quite special.

A great fighting game that is unfortunately let down by a few bugs.
