GameSpot's Reviews
Hellblade is a spellbinding and sympathetic game about loss and redemption.
Telltale starts strong with new characters and a charismatic villain.
The will is strong with Redeemer, but the flesh is spongy and bruised.
Tacoma tells a story that is made compelling by a well-written and -acted cast of characters, but it's just short of being truly satisfying.
Once the silliness of Miitopia wears off, you're left with a cute and repetitive RPG.
Sundered is an enjoyable journey that iterates upon the Metroidvania style in ways that are both satisfying and substantial.
Olimar and his Pikmin are back for another charming adventure, but don't expect it to be as challenging as its console counterparts.
Pyre's wit and whimsy effortlessly usher you into a captivating world of punishment, sacrifice, and competition.
Splatoon 2 is a fresh, vibrant sequel that introduces smart updates to the original's unique formula.
The Rise of the Necromancer DLC offers a great new character class for Diablo III--but is it enough to keep the five-year-old game afloat?
Final Fantasy XIV: Stormblood tackles somber themes with unexpected polish, proving that an old dog can indeed learn new tricks.
One of the best Final Fantasy games gets the remaster treatment it rightfully deserves.
Rakuen's unique setting and sweet sensibilities make up for its technical shortcomings.
The Mage's Tale attempts to bring classic PC dungeon crawling into virtual reality, but disappoints at nearly every turn.
Ever Oasis' tight blend of mechanics and activities are bound to keep you coming back for more well after completing it, if only to see what else you can do to develop your desert sanctuary. While the game's story isn't particularly moving, the consistent gratification of its incisive design makes it a satisfying adventure. Ever Oasis takes time to grow, but the return is well worth the wait.
While satisfying at times, poor story presentation and an abundance of superfluous elements make Valkyria Revolution less than the sum of its parts.
It's still somewhat thrilling to inhabit the captain's chair on the bridge of a starship--at the bare minimum, Star Trek: Bridge Crew accomplishes that mission. When the game is at its best, the spirit of cooperation between various asymmetrical elements is encouraging--even special. In every other regard, however, Bridge Crew is forgettable the second you pull out of VR.
With all of the extras added in the various expansion packs, the game now feels a little more like a municipal engineer or municipal planner simulation than anything that properly depicts what it's like to be the mayor overseeing everything. Even with that caveat, Mass Transit adds more character and depth to what's already the premier city-building simulation.
The Farm 51's psychological thriller tells a story you won't forget.
The spirit of Robotron lives again in Housemarque's brilliant and blistering Nex Machina.
