Ultimately, this installment looks rushed. This game possesses a shockingly high number of errors to be considered unplayable.
The Anacrusis falls behind the heavyweights in the four-player, cooperative first-person shooter genre. Although this is an unfinished game, currently, the game offers almost nothing to motivate me in wanting to play this again.
Police Simulator: Patrol Officers definitely display some positives to pose as a potential, but it is in dire need of updates to address the issues preventing the game from reaching it. It's a game with potential that comes with a few noticeable shortcomings that must be addressed very soon.
MX Vs ATV Legends seems unfinished. This is not an improvement to the predecessor; in fact, you could consider this a downgrade. You can even make a case for this being the worst game of the franchise. Although the developers are on to something with the features, on the flip side, with almost everything else that pretty much blows it out the water, I am amazed that even after going through the testing process, the developer still felt this game was worthy of releasing in this state.
Matchpoint - Tennis Championships is the most authentic tennis experience in modern gaming, and a game with great potential shouldn't go to waste. The game is on the right track. The gameplay is probably the best tennis experience you can get in a game. You enjoy vigorous matches and have the joy of the new ranking system based on how well you play.
Mia and the Dragon Princess has a lot of potential but not enough to actually reach it. There are some exciting scenes, an impressive casting list, a lot of action, and the recurrent decision-making is engaging, but there are some striking negatives that are very difficult to ignore. And because of that, this isn’t one of Wales Interactive’s best projects.
Naraka: Bladepoint has potential. There are some originalities, and that’s one thing gamers thoroughly appreciate. However, I don’t think this game is ready to compete with the top dogs of Battle Royale gaming. It needs to give more to even be close to competing with the best in the genre.
XIII Remake is still brimming with inconsistencies. The story is good, and the visuals have improved, but the gameplay is a bit messy. Although there are a few improvements, it does not feel like I was playing a current-gen game. Without the story, I am certain I wouldn’t have bothered playing this game again. The plot and the graphics carried this game. Microids were given another chance, and they didn’t do enough with it. Having said this, some restorations were brought to a classic.
Destroy All Humans! 2: Reprobed has managed to deliver the nostalgia for players, and it was strange but fun at the same time to play a classic on a current-gen console platform. Although, there are some areas that needed improvement, which would have made the experience far much greater. However, for the money, it’s pretty steep, especially for a game which had originally released two generations ago.
Amerzone - The Explorer's Legacy pays tribute to an iconic game with a good story, puzzles, and gorgeous visuals. However, I would’ve preferred the gameplay to feature much more modern mechanics while keeping the ones that made the game a classic.
South of Midnight has a very good story that strongly represents the effects of trauma and how some people handle them. However, the combat is pretty much the sole reason why this game didn’t reach its full potential.
It’s clear that they focused much more on fidelity than performance, which is a major pet peeve for most gamers. There’s nothing wrong with putting a lot of emphasis on the graphics, but the gameplay needs as much attention—even more would be better. The silver lining is that this game is free, so there’s no harm in giving it a shot. The game has something there, but it will need more improvements to get the best out of it. Plus, plenty of The First Descendant updates along the way will feature more characters, weapons, adjustments, and so on. So, hopefully, The First Descendant will become a more interesting game in the future.
Evergate would be much more suited for a younger audience who love to solve puzzles. The story is intriguing, as you would like to guide the protagonist back to earth.
If you are thinking of buying Shing!, you would want to get at least one of your friends involved.
Way of the Hunter provides the authenticity you need to probably have the best virtual hunting experience. Still, it also comes with some baggage, such as a story, which the developer could have placed more emphasis on. When you think about these things, they make the game to be inconsistent overall.
Trek to Yomi has lived up to its hype and has changed side-scrolling gaming for the future. It isn’t on the same level as relative games like Ghost of Tsushima, and some shortcomings drag it down a little, but this game has done more than enough to get your attention at least.
Gray Zone Warfare’s brand-new update has taken this game to the next level, and it was a much better experience with the new changes that make this game much more worthy of getting. But still not having actual controller support is a big no-no. Again, I hope that the support is coming in the near future, because this game has potential, and I don’t want myself and many other controller players to have to steer away from this game, because it has a lot of potential.
Eternal Strands possesses quite a nice depth and a compelling combination of features to bring you some enjoyable combat. However, the story isn’t something I would speak much of often when discussing the game. Despite that, this game is a great start for Yellow Brick Games and displays the potential the developer has for future projects.
Rogue Company Season 2 is without a doubt an upgrade to last season. The new rogue is so much joy to use, especially with the weapons and abilities that come with it.
Blades of Fire is a surprisingly enjoyable experience overall, and you get to delve into a unique forging mechanic that allows you to create the ultimate weapons manually. However, despite how fun the combat is, it’s actually quite hard, even if you choose to play on the easiest difficulty.
