82 / 100 - Heavy Rain
Mar 2, 2016

If you have never played Heavy Rain before, I definitely think it is worth discovering on the PS4.

Feb 28, 2016

Once you truly get into the experience of playing this game, you will be astounded by just how much content there is packed into its unassuming exterior.

Feb 14, 2016

If you are a fan of scary games, and you are still sad about P.T., this game is a must buy…

80 / 100 - Punch Club
Jan 23, 2016

Put it all together, and the easy and fun game you started to play soon becomes a pretty stressful rock-paper-scissors cycle that really demands your attention.

I know I personally would have paid a few dollars just to get Piper in the game. But the Pack also includes a number of other Legends as well.

Turok Remastered plays to all the worst addictive aspects of the FPS genre, keeping you running for that carrot on the stick, and fiending for the rush of a new upgrade.

There are also some compelling and impactful moments in Orsinium that make this one of the better Elder Scrolls quests I have played.

75 / 100 - Hard West
Nov 19, 2015

No, it's not a bull's eye by any means, but Hard West will certainly hit close enough to provide you with hours of Wild-West fun.

86 / 100 - WWE 2K16
Nov 3, 2015

The Bottom Line is that WWE 2K16 gives the fans what they wanted – the full suite of Creation modes, a more robust My Career mode, and the biggest roster ever. This is now a huge, deep game that will satisfy the most-demanding WWE fans, and it makes WWE 2K15 look like a Demo.

Minecraft: Story Mode has a lot of positives that make it worth playing – it is gorgeous to look at, and will be a cool experience for any Minecraft fan in particular, as it pays loving homage to its source-material.

87 / 100 - NHL 16
Sep 15, 2015

While it may not be perfect, and it still has some kinks to iron out, NHL 16 is the comeback the series needed, and it is a great title for those looking to jump back into the action.

I would always give this game high marks, no matter how many times they re-released it.  But while it was, and remains, a great and classic game in its own right, unless you have somehow never played it before, you should give this Remastered version a pass.  Instead, wait for a bonafide new instalment of the series, if and when another one is made in the future.

85 / 100 - PlanetSide 2
Jul 14, 2015

Planetside 2 gives you a massive and fun online shooting experience, and it's completely free. Yes, there are microtransactions, but they are very unobtrusive and do not give nearly enough of an advantage to be labelled "pay to win."

The Elder Scrolls Online:  Tamriel Unlimited, despite its small issues, is an excellent game and easily an essential title for any PS4 and Xbox One owner. In the name of The Nine, I urge you to add this to your collection – or face Tiber Septim's wrath!

Farming Simulator 2015 just does not offer enough to make it worth playing instead of all the great games we have available today. If you want to relax while playing videogames, there are way better games to do that – Flower and Journey come to mind as good examples.

70 / 100 - Tower of Guns
Apr 21, 2015

Play it for a while, die many times, put down your controller, scream into a pillow, and go watch cat videos. And then, when you have calmed down, come back to play it again. If you stick with it, Tower of Guns will give you exactly what it promises – a few hours of insane, mostly fun, run-and-gun action.

85 / 100 - We Are Doomed
Apr 16, 2015

The more you play it, the less you will care how far you get; you will come back again and again just for the simple pleasure of playing it. But be careful – that 30 minutes you think you have spent will likely turn out to be more like 2 hours when you check the clock.

While the basic gameplay mechanic gets it right, the lackluster story and cement-headed AI keep this title from greatness.  If you are looking to try something different, Sniper Elite III Ultimate Edition is definitely worth a shot (sorry, couldn't resist).

75 / 100 - Scram Kitty DX
Mar 25, 2015

There is a Challenge mode, in which you can try a timed-playthrough of a level and try to get onto the Leaderboards, which adds a bit of extended "fun" (or stress, in my view) to the original, Adventure mode.  But overall, like my cat and his laser pointer, the novelty of Scram Kitty DX will eventually wear off and you will walk away.

Would a game like this ultimately steal months of my life, like some bigger titles?  No.  But it is super fun to play as the casual – yet deep – game that it is.
