Rife with mistakes that should be unacceptable, and squandering all of its potential, Codename STEAM is a game that you should avoid unless you are really desperately looking for a strategy game on your 3DS, and have already completed Shadow War and Fire Emblem Awakening.

Badland: Game of the Year Edition seems undercut by its basic nature more than the troubles that ports face. Though fun and challenging at times, it struggles to match up to the best its genre has to offer.

Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster is a fantastic collection that brings together two great games, and a lot of supplementary material, to create the most complete Final Fantasy X release to date. A few bugs currently mar the PS4 version, but if you can look past them, you'll find the most beautiful and complete version of these games. If you're a fan of Final Fantasy X and X-2, and can get past the bugs, you owe it to yourself to check out this collection.

7 / 10.0 - Mario Party 10
Jun 2, 2015

For many families, Mario Party 10 will be an essential addition, and is wholly recommended- for everyone else, hold on tight. Mario Party 10 is indicative of Nintendo getting the series back on track, but it's not there yet. The next one should be a return to the glory days.

Magnetic has potential, but fails to reach it due to how hard it tries to be Portal. If it had tried to focus ion its own gameplay and kept it as pure as Portal, they might have had something special. As of now, it exists, and that's all that can really be said about it.

6.5 / 10.0 - Magicka 2
May 30, 2015

The game has some rather fun elements but there isn't enough game to really deserve a higher grade. Being able to play alongside your friends is fun enough, but even that doesn't seem like a big enough perk.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt lives up to and surpasses the hype, delivering an excellent experience that won't be forgotten any time soon.

A more than competent game with its share of flaws. The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing III comes as a recommendation for any and all that enjoy the action adventure genre of video games. A beautifully created and realized world filled with interesting locations and enemies.

Though It still has its issues, especially with regards to the excessive grinding, RNG and shortage of content, Destiny's House of Wolves is a worthwhile experience for fans with interesting things to do and plenty of improvements over The Dark Below.

6 / 10.0 - Block N Load
May 19, 2015

If you're looking for a player driven, skill based, class operated first person shooter, Block N Load is not the game for you. Team Fortress 2, a game which is free to play in its entirety, does it better in just about every way.

5 / 10.0 - Toren
May 18, 2015

Toren is an imaginative game with an interesting narrative and beautiful game world. For every moment of striking art or good design, however, there's something wrong with the game technically or in terms of its moment to moment gameplay. Ultimately, like Moonchild herself, Toren would have benefitted from a bit more time in the tower, exploring its own design and ideas before rushing to the top. There's very few things that are more ironic than a game that plays with the notion of time feeling incomplete.

The game is plenty fun if you have a few minutes to kill, but this isn't going to replace any number of other MOBAs that are already on the market.

Xenoblade Chronicles earned its cult status on the Wii, and the New 3DS version makes it much more widely available. Aside from a visual downgrade, the handheld port is worth your time.

Wolfenstein: The Old Blood is Tarantino-esque in its ambitions. It's messy, loud, kitschy and outright violent but a joy to experience despite the rough edges. Sure, it's not a sequel by any stretch but for a $19.99 expansion, it's length feels just right.

9 / 10.0 - Project CARS
May 7, 2015

Project Cars provides excellent gameplay that caters to both beginners and motoring enthusiasts alike. Along with mouth-watering graphics and enough satisfying content for the long drive ahead, this is a game with plenty of longevity.

5.5 / 10.0 - Dungeons 2
May 7, 2015

There was something promising about the way the developers put Dungeons 2 together but they didn't really follow through with that promise. Instead we got a game that seemed as though the developers stretch themselves too thin.

8 / 10.0 - Broken Age
May 6, 2015

Broken Age: The Complete Adventure is a Double Fine title unlike anything before it. While it has its problems and inconsistencies, it's worth playing through once just to see Shay and Vella overcome the odds.
