Kotaku's Reviews
More ways to have fun, fewer manufactured barriers to do so. Inventive game mechanics lead to some truly breahttaking levels. Driving and flying is a blast. Underwater vehicle levels are the worst.
A little rushed and a little clumsy, but ultimately well-intentioned and welcome.
Finally, I can make the hellscape Mario levels of my dreams.
Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime's brand of fast-paced teamwork is the kind of thing that can make complete strangers feel like old war buddies after only a few minutes.
Metal Gear Solid V is the best Metal Gear yet, and has immediately become one of my favorite video games of the last few years. It's an impeccable stealth-action game, clearly inspired in all the right ways by modern series like Far Cry, and it's got a level of moment-to-moment joyfulness that kept me satisfied even when I was slogging through harder versions of levels I'd already beaten just to see the "true" ending.
An overlong, overstuffed adventure with some nice scenery and decent car combat.
Combines cool toys, a fun video game and a world of opportunities for creative little minds
Confused, inconsistent and technically poor, Devil's Third has some inventive ideas for multiplayer, but it suffers form the same flaws as its dreary campaign.
It's a smarter, more expressive take on the old Syndicate formula.
A delightfully absurd choose-your-own adventure horror game that encourages multiple playthroughs.
It's more Toy Soldiers, which is cool. So, by default, this is cool, too.
Flows confidently between shooter, puzzler and platformer, never runs out of ideas, and challenges both your mind and your reflexes. Oh, and it looks and sounds gorgeous.
An inventive stealth game that strips the genre down to its basics.
Galak-Z is like a workout for your video game brain: it hurts but the pain will make your skills stronger.
An enjoyable funeral walk through a depopulated English countryside, chasing beams of light.
Adorable, enjoyable, but not particularly inspired, Yoshi's Woolly World is a comforting, safe puzzle-platformer with a lot of heart.
Easy to learn and fun to play, Rocket League is an example of how to make multiplayer gaming appeal to more than just the casual crowd.
The best bundle of games releases for an Xbox since The Orange Box. Some are all-time classics, Others are Grabbed By The Ghouies.
A great Batman story that keeps everything that has made this series great, while adding something less great.
A smart, fun exploration of turn-based tactics in a fantasy setting.
