Feb 25, 2015

Dynasty Warriors 8: Empires doesn't want to innovate but it fails to provide long-time veterans with anything truly new and exciting. Even casual players will eventually be bored with the utter repetitiveness of combat.

Monster Hunter finally realizes its true potential and becomes the game it was always meant to be, in a game that is not only the best game in the series, but also one of the best games on the 3DS.

Unmechanical Extended on a fundamental level fails to address the shortcomings of the original game, and even though the extended episode tries it's best to do something interesting, it's against the clock and the mechanics of the game. Extended isn't worth the asking price for what it offers, especially over the original version.

7 / 10.0 - The Order: 1886
Feb 19, 2015

The lack of balance between gameplay and cinematics drags The Order: 1886 down. It's not a bad game but you will find better third person shooters on the market than The Order: 1886.

5 / 10.0 - The Escapists
Feb 15, 2015

The Escapists is a game for a very niche audience, as it doesn't provide much in the way of variety to deliver enough entertainment for long periods of time.

7 / 10.0 - Evolve
Feb 14, 2015

Evolve is a game that perpetuates and demonstrates the fun of online cooperative gameplay. Whether it's the A.I. combatants or online friends there's excitement to be found. Since the game relies on its multiplayer as its bread and butter, it's going to have to do a lot more in the long run should it hope to sustain any longevity.

Total War: Attila is one of the best strategy games you can find on the market right now if the historic world is your field of interest and I strongly recommend it to you. There's more than enough accurate material to be found here, allowing you to recreate famous scenes from history, or even create your own from scratch.

Though not the most visually comprehensive or newbie-friendly remaster, Grim Fandango is still one of the greatest adventure games ever made.

7 / 10.0 - Dying Light
Feb 9, 2015

Dying Light is a decent run through your modern day zombie apocalypse but its visual wizardry and affable movement system can't mask some AI snafus, lame characterization and disappointing approach to horror.

Citizens of Earth is a fun, if flawed, sojourn into the glory days of 16 bit JRPGs.

Life is Strange presents an interesting story and does well to flesh out its characters, regardless of their importance to the overall game. The many choices available to the player makes way for unexpected consequences that prove to be entertaining.

Although still fun, there is no denying that this is still largely a carbon copy of the original.

5.5 / 10.0 - Blackguards 2
Jan 27, 2015

This still feels like an Alpha or a Beta version that needs to be fleshed out a bit more before it's release. The problem is, it has been released.

7 / 10.0 - Elite: Dangerous
Jan 21, 2015

Elite Dangerous is not going to be the game for everyone, and in fact most are going to be turned off by all it demands from players. The fact remains though, that the game does exactly what it wants, and does it very well. It isn't here to please everybody, but those who it is for are going to have a good time.

Resident Evil HD Remaster is survival horror but surprisingly as good as you remember it. It could have used more work in the porting department though.

5.5 / 10.0 - Escape Dead Island

Escape Dead Island is a game with a lot of potential that ultimately disappoints.

7.5 / 10.0 - Dokuro
Jan 16, 2015

Dokuro makes its unorthodox presence known on PC and while more responsibility could have been taken in porting, it's a fun, cutesy romp with an ample amount of challenge.

Not the best game in the series, and definitely not the most refreshing or the most remarkable, but a solid LBP game and platformer nonetheless that everyone should be able to enjoy.

This is one of the best Kinect games out there. If you like music, movement, Fantasia, or Disney, you owe it to yourself to give Disney Fantasia: Music Evolved a shot. It serves as a respectful ode to a great movie, and a great moment, an encore performance to one of the finest animated films of all time. Well done, Mickey.

Konami have, after a long time, brought themselves back into the fight with the FIFA series with a shout, thanks to a massive improvement over PES 2014 in every possibly way. PES 2015 is probably the best PES game till date.
