Civilization VI: Gathering Storm is a great expansion that adds a number of interesting new world-affecting gameplay mechanics.

2.5 / 5.0 - JUMP FORCE
Feb 24, 2019

Jump Force is the perfect example of good intentions with poor execution. I personally feel sorry for diehard fans who were really looking forward to a game that had so much potential. Unfortunately, all anyone got was a box of disappointment and relentless loading times. As a whole, Jump Force comes off half baked and unfulfilling. I honestly wish I had more good things to say about this game but even now I'm hard pressed. The most positive thing I can say about this game is that it could be a starting point for a brand new series of games. Even though this game is in dire need of fixing, I have hopes that redemption can be made with a solid sequel if done right.

My Time At Portia is a decent farming/life sim game with great crafting mechanics and painfully dull characters.

3.5 / 5.0 - ChromaGun VR
Feb 24, 2019

All things said and done, ChromaGun is a solid game with decent puzzle elements. It has it’s flaws but all things said and done is nicely enough executed. It certainly is worth the play for the puzzles alone.

Feb 17, 2019

‘Crackdown 3' is everything you'd expect in a sequel. New location, new guns, new abilities, and a few hidden surprises along the way to keep you on your toes.

MES2 is a fun entry into supercross gaming and might do a lot better with more attention to detail.

As a big fan of the series, New Dawn was a welcome return to Hope County, Montana. It didn't wow, but the new progression system, fixed bugs, tighter maps, and nostalgia factor combine to make for a fun and familiar gameplay experience. Still, if you didn't care for Far Cry 5 there's probably not enough here to change your mind.

Seeing as I finished it in just over 4 hours I can't say it's worth the price of admission. It might be one to wait for until it goes on sale.

3.6 / 5.0 - Genesis Alpha One
Feb 11, 2019

Genesis Alpha One is a fun space simulator/roguelike experience for players who enjoy resource gathering and crafting, ship management and first-person shooter mechanics – and want to play something where they're all bundled into one package. It's not the biggest triple AAA title on the market, but it's definitely one of the most unique games to release and kick off 2019.

Travis Strikes Again is a significant departure from the series with disappointing gameplay, but exceptional style.

While seasoned veterans of the Ace Combat series may have a much different perspective on its seventh iteration, I was unfortunately left disappointed by lots of glitz and limited glamour.

2.5 / 5.0 - HoPiKo
Jan 24, 2019

HoPiKo is challenging and moves at a lightning pace, although it can't escape the fact that it feels more like a game you'd play on your phone than on a console.
