Kotaku's Reviews
The tried and tested Spider-Man formula is beginning to wear thing.
It may not be as transcendent as it wishes it were, but it's still a lot of fun to play.
An often hilarious bit of video-game slapstick that makes up for its shonky second half with delightful gags and a lovably clumsy protagonist.
Turns out, a good main character and a focus on careful stealth over noisy violence can go a long way toward making a game more interesting.
Second Son provides a great example of how to transition a sereies to a new generation of dedicated hardware with a tangible sense of evolution in almost every aspect.
A brief but well-crafted game that rewards creative play in surprising ways. It's good to see Snake again.
Gives you the constant feeling of just escaping death at the last moment.
A return to classic Yoshi's Island gameplay would be worth cheering about if the new game didn't feel like an inferior imitation of a still-excellent game.
It's fast, fun, fluid, and a fresh way to play what was becoming a stale genre. And it makes you feel good.
A stellar, challenging experience that borrows from its predecessors while making significant and complicated design changes.
A mix of mostly-new puzzles, an engaging, globe-spanning story, characters worth caring about and a welcome change to the series' formula. It's the opposite of a lazy sequel.
Though Stick of Truth still suffers from a number of glitches and technical issues that won't be fixed any time soon, it's a great game, and it's worth your time nonetheless.
A bright, colorful and friendly introduction to the world of online multiplayer shooters.
Lords of Shadow 2 squanders a great premise - playing as the King of Vampires in a modern day city - with mediocre execution.
A shambling, mediocre mess.
It looks good, sounds better and plays well...if you have a high tolerance for a high level of difficulty and/or are willing to cheat the system.
Visually creative, fun levels, great source material and packed with one of the best casts in gaming history.
If you've got a craving for that classic RPG feeling, this is your game. Four heroes; four crystals; a world to be saved--you know how it is.
It's more Peggle, only prettier.
A fresh direction for the franchise, dressed up as an older game so we don't feel all awkward about it.
