Whether you dive into its meta narrative or rehearse the executions of eight ballroom guards for the sixteenth time, Superhot invents a tactical, first-person shooter genre to call its own. Please, Superhot team, I need more.
Although it's light on story and can get a bit tedious due to an emphasis on hunting and crafting, there's a lot to like about Far Cry: Primal. A beautiful game through and through, it's as immersive as it is nice-looking, and presents a rich world that is easy to get lost in.
Despite the burdens of a slow opening and short length, The Walking Dead: Michonne Episode 1 - In Too Deep expands on Telltale's established methods in clever ways, and delivers a promising start to the franchise's first miniseries.
Surprisingly dull considering the premise, Reagan Gorbachev is a cheap and frustrating adventure that is only worth tackling if you have a friend along for the ride.
Hitman GO has made a fantastic transition to consoles. With the added ability to earn trophies and having all of the DLC in one package, there is no doubt that the definitive edition is appropriately named.
Mega Man Legacy Collection for Nintendo 3DS is still a faithful port of six classic Blue Bomber adventures, but the lack of system-specific features and limited options in comparison to its home console brethren make it hard to recommend over previous releases.
Fire Emblem Fates: Birthright does a great job of preserving and building on its predecessor's strengths as well as offering a solid standalone experience, and is a must-play for any 3DS owner looking for a quality RPG.
While not innovative, Arslan: The Warriors of Legend manages to be yet another well crafted musou from Omega Force. It might not have the depth of others entries gameplay wise, but the narrative is compelling enough to keep players entertained.
Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2 is a great breath of fresh air in an otherwise starch genre. Not only is it a humorous treat for the eyes and ears, but it's also a very rich, balanced, and enjoyable game, which packs a hell of a lot of content into its less than 20gb install file.
Layers of Fear is an unsettling and occasionally frightening game that succeeds in keeping you on the edge of your seat, though it doesn't deliver up to its potential and ends up feeling a bit lacking.
Project X Zone 2 still isn't the home run of a crossover one would hope for, but with a wittier script and improved gameplay mechanics, it's undeniably a step in the right direction.
ZHEROS' lack of aspiration leaves us with a beat 'em-up that is both boring and replaceable.
Although it still possesses some of the faults that made the game it expands upon frustrating at times, Dying Light: The Following is a very enjoyable, robust and immersive add-on to an already solid title.
Don't let the score fool you, Street Fighter V's gameplay is phenomenal. What isn't so hot though is the completely rushed game that surrounds it.
Assassin's Creed Chronicles: Russia continues the Chronicles series' tradition of stealth mediocrity, offering up a handful of uneventful 2D side-scrolling missions. As usual, the visuals are nice and the mechanics are solid, but assassinating people should never be this tedious.
If you aren't too picky and you're in the mood for some old-school RPG action, Aveyond 4 might just be the lighthearted fun you need. If you're a more discerning customer, however, the game's dated RPG Maker feel, lackluster writing and overall been-there-done-that vibe will put you off.
Technical issues aside, XCOM 2 stands as an outstanding sequel to an already amazing strategy game.
Factotum won't baffle you like The Witness, but it will leave you highly satisfied after solving a difficult puzzle. You'll never feel like a genius, as the solutions are never too far out of reach, but you will feel smarter by the end of the game.
Assuming you have the hardware to back it up, Rise of the Tomb Raider on PC is hands down the version to own.
Unravel is a stunning and unforgettable game, but its gameplay isn't always as polished as its visuals.
