GameSpot's Reviews
Enter the Gungeon is a challenging roguelike with awesome ideas that often contradict one another.
Ratchet & Clank is a veritable power fantasy fueled by rockets and carried by specialty gadgets.
Michonne’s second solo outing finally gets down to business.
Hack and slash your way through the brilliantly realized horror-fantasy world of Grim Dawn, an instant classic in the action RPG genre.
The stunning Hyper Light Drifter is a masterful mix of exploration and combat.
Slain is a gorgeous spectacle that's a total drag to play.
Into the Stars delivers intense Roguelite space strategy, but reveals all of its cards too soon.
Dark Souls 3 is a harrowing trek through a dark and gorgeous world, and despite a few missteps, is well worth the challenge.
Quantum Break looks slick, but bouts of ineffective gameplay and its mixed-media construction make this a hit-and-miss experience.
Much of Black Desert Online is a convoluted mess, but few games let you create a virtual life this absorbing.
Dirt Rally's arrival on consoles lets more people join in Codemasters' celebration of this brutal motorsport. [OpenCritic note: Richard Wakeling separately reviewed the PC and PS4 versions.]
Oculus Rift enhances the familiar platforming in Lucky's Tale, but the VR adventure fails to leave a lasting impression.
Adr1ft is a gorgeous game with a moving personal story, but its systems clash against one another, creating tedium and boredom throughout.
Trackmania Turbo delivers thrills online and off thanks to high speed, crazy tracks, and a unique time trial focus.
The studio behind imaginative indie hits Machinarium and Botanicula debuts its most ambitious game yet: a beautiful yet simplistic point-and-click adventure.
Mercenaries is a disappointing expansion to last year's Galactic Civilizations III that limits your freedom on the battlefield.
Republique comes to PS4 as a complete package, and the game is all the better for it.
Moon Hunters has a good story to tell, but grinds it to dust in the process.
Assessed solely as a Zelda game, Hyrule Warriors probably isn’t good enough to lure in non-Dynasty Warriors fans, but it is passable enough to offer Musou lovers something different to play between their usual battles for dynastic superiority.
With the addition of Snowfall on top of the After Dark expansion released last fall, Cities: Skylines is starting to take shape as an expansive city-building franchise that offers something for any wannabe mayor. One caveat here is that you don't really get a tremendous amount of content, and that what's present is pretty much relegated in specific maps, leaving the impact of this expansion on the overall game fairly minimal. That said, the winter wonderland atmosphere does freshen up the visuals so even while this expansion is not essential, spending a little time in a virtual snow globe city remains awfully appealing.
