Galak-Z is a fun take on the rouge like, and as punishing as they come. Maybe you like that, maybe you don't. Stick with in and Galak-Z will reward you, but it sure isn't going to make it easy.
Submerged is...Well, it exists. It wants to stand beside games like Journey, yet missed the mark so much on why Journey worked. It puts you in a world and expects you to be amazed, but never delivers any reason to become attached or really, a world pretty enough to just become absorbed into visually. Float on.
When it comes to value for money, very little matches Etrian Odyssey 2 Untold. It is the best game in the series, the best modern take on classic dungeon crawling, and the finest realization yet of Atlus' stark, uncompromising vision for true, hardcore, dungeon crawling role playing.
Still holding up after nearly 30 years, and still, every bit as challenging, Mega Man Legacy Collection is a great buy for the asking price. Even if it is a bit insecure with extra features.
Splatoon is the best game on the Wii U.
Gears of War: Ultimate Edition isn't the Xbox One's killer app but it's a good addition to any shooter fan's library. Some mechanics have begun to show their age but as a whole, it's a worthwhile and fun experience.
Many games attempt to deliver on something that is easy to play but hard to master. OlliOlli 2 succeeds on this and literally welcomes you to prove it.
Everybody's Gone To The Rapture really tried to be something more powerful than a video game. It tried to be art. However, instead of becoming a Mona Lisa, it felt as though the paint was still awaiting its first brush stroke. It never quite got there, but if it ever achieved that first stroke, it was bound to be brilliant.
The Prototype Collection is a terribly flawed attempt to add a layer of polish to two games that are already rusted and tarnished from age and technical issues.
F1 2015's accurate portrayal of on the track racing action and visual splendor is largely overshadowed by a dearth of modes, a host of graphical glitches and nearly nonexistent multiplayer.
As a compilation, Rare Replay is one of the best deals on the market. As a look into the illustrious developer, there's a ton of great history to be experienced. As an experience, this represents three decades of gaming that must be experienced.
Despite its troubled launch, the PS4 version of Ultra Street Fighter IV honors Street Fighter IV's impressive legacy while adding a few wrinkles of its own, making it an essential purchase for long time fans and newbies alike. It is easily the best and most accessible console version of the title available, and will do more than enough to keep you busy until Street Fighter V. If you're looking for the definitive edition of one of the best fighters on the market, look no further.
Heroes of the Storm isn't your new MOBA fix and it may not even appeal to every kind of strategy gamer out there. Despite a hefty amount of grinding, Blizzard presents a strong amount of content and gameplay in an aesthetically pleasing packaging. And if nothing else, it's great for a few time-wasting rounds here and there.
PGA Tour's newest offering, championed by Rory McIiroy. It completely misses the green, however, and like a bad tee shot, seems to go off into the rough.
Batman: Arkham Knight may not have been the conclusion everyone expected but it's still an all-round excellent open world action adventure that brings the trilogy to a satisfying close. Not all of its mechanics gel together well but what works makes for a compelling play-through.
While it's not visually amazing, Motogp 15 delivers a spectacular racing experience thanks to solid gameplay and a great scale of challenge.
The venerable Elder Scrolls series survives the transition to an online game, minus the online aspects that are actually enjoyable.
RONIN wants to be a thinking man's twitch slasher. It mixes intriguing visuals and a barebones but singular premise with an awkward interface and little variety. The first few missions are a template for the remaining game and there's little incentive to see it through to the end, much less replay it.
It is still Carmageddon if that's what you're looking for. For everyone else, look somewhere else.
LEGO works its magic on the four Jurassic Park movies – creating a fun-filled game for all the family.
