It's great to see developers take criticism to heart and use those lessons to create a better experience the second time around.
Normally, I try to shy away from recommending games based on your ability to play with others, but it’s a necessity when it comes to Metroid Prime: Federation Force. If you’re planning on tackling it solo, Federation Force is a much tougher pill to swallow, with its prohibitive level of difficulty. On the other hand, if you have a friend or two who are willing to take the plunge with you, Federation Force can make for a good time, especially if you’re all playing together in the same space.
While not without its issues, Omega Force did a really good job bringing Attack on Titan into the realm of gaming.
Hatsune Miku games always excel thanks to their libraries of great musical tracks.
Cat President ~A More Purrfect Union~ gives us all a chance to step back from potential fears of the actual impending election and have a laugh at the whole process.
While this reboot of the classic Master of Orion series isn’t perfect, it packs massive amounts of replayability, with endless tactics and strategies to be explored.
Hitman – Episode 4: Bangkok has a lot of good going for it, but doesn’t quite live up to the excitement that has been established in the past.
Valley plays host to movement mechanics that feel awesome to use and a story that eventually becomes worthwhile.
It's impressive how good Strike Vector EX really is.
Even for someone as apathetic and straight-faced as me, I rarely deny comedy the opportunity to lift a smile on my face.
King of Fighters XIV has some rough edges, but is outstanding overall.
Grow Up is a worthy follow up to Grow Home.
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is the epitome of the phrase, one step forward, two steps back.
Even with some moments where the game feels a bit too frantic, damned if Okhlos isn't a ton of fun.
To clear the palate, and because it’s so much fun, I put some time in with Robotron 2084 after I decided I was done with this game.
It’s fantastic to see Umineko When They Cry available on Steam.
Despite the sheer amount of complaints that you can throw at No Man’s Sky, it’s still a breathtaking experience that teases the possibilities of the medium’s future.
Many expansion packs can easily be dismissed as “more of the same for those that want it.” Unto the Evil sidesteps this. It’s an easy recommendation to players that liked everything about the speed and feel of the combat but disliked the maps; these new ones are so much more enjoyable.
With a bit more content, Blade Ballet could have the potential to be another multiplayer classic, which is why hopefully we’ll see more additions to it in the future.
New Retro Arcade: Neon realizes an immensely cool idea but that idea alone requires further refinement to become a must-play.
