Sabotage is exactly what Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare needed: an injection of good maps.
Injustice 2 is nearly everything you'd want a sequel to be.
Kingdom Hearts is fractured no more.
It feels cruel for Nomura and company to continue teasing Kingdom Hearts fans who just want Kingdom Hearts III, but a delicious appetizer is better than nothing, and that’s what Kingdom Hearts HD 2.
BioShock: The Collection successfully brings three of the best games from the last-generation to the current-generation, but not without a few hiccups.
Fans can rest assured, Dead Rising 4 is still a Dead Rising game despite some controversial decisions.
The console market hasn’t had a solid RTS game since Halo Wars back in 2009, but that all changes with Halo Wars 2.
Putting to rest any qualms about the World War I setting, Battlefield 1 is a true Battlefield game with everything you’ve come expect from the franchise.
Ratchet & Clank is more than just a mere remake of the 2002 classic as Insomniac Games took big risks and they paid off.
Taking away guns, cars and explosions sounds like a huge risk on paper, especially for a franchise that has built itself on those properties.
The term "expansion" has a dirty connotation to it nowadays.
PopCap Games paid close attention to the criticisms of the original game and ultimately crafted a worthy sequel.
Bungie set out with a goal for Destiny: The Taken King and they have mostly succeeded. While some of the nagging problems from the original game persist – boring patrol areas, recycling of areas and enemies, and bullet-sponge enemies – Destiny: The Taken King does more than enough to make up for the sins of its predecessor.
Killzone: Shadow Fall is not a perfect game. It has design flaws and the story is lacking, but it's a whole lot of fun and a great showcase for what the PS4 can do.
inFamous: Second Son is the first next-gen game that signals we're in a new generation of gaming. It isn't just the amazing visuals that make inFamous: Second Son feel so good, but also the varied gameplay and rich open-world of Seattle.
Killzone: Shadow Fall – Intercept is a fun add-on to the base game and serves as a competent standalone product. All the ingredients are here for an exciting co-op game, and Guerrilla Games mixes them together with ease.
The campaign pulls in some strong performances from its actors and earns points for its open-design. The campaign gameplay, however, leaves much to be desired. Still, it's a step in the right direction for future Battlefield games. Hardline may not revolutionize the Battlefield brand, but it fixes many of its biggest problems.
Borderlands: The Handsome Collection isn't the greatest remaster ever, nor is it the worst. One could argue that it wasn't necessary, as neither game is old enough to justify a port and nothing substantial has been added to the three-year-old Borderlands 2.
God of War Ragnarök is to God of War (2018) as God of War II was to God of War. God of War II may not have changed much mechanically, but it made nuanced improvements to gameplay, story and level design, all while injecting much-needed variety into the enemies and environments.
A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, a studio set out to make a fun romp through Episodes I-III. Not only did they succeed, but they started a franchise that grew stronger with each entry.
