A massive improvement over the first game in nearly every way, Watch Dogs 2 is an extremely successful entry into the open world genre that should not be missed by fans. Hopefully future entries into the series can knock it out of the park.
While Planet Coaster has some flaws with management and automation, it is nonetheless an excellent theme park simulator that adds many new tools for the aspiring rollercoaster tycoon.
A great Sengoku period strategy game with thousands of unique historical figures that sadly doesn't offer much beyond the previous release in the series.
Root Letter provides a fun and engaging experience for those that enjoy the mystery genre, pretty art, and interesting character development. There are misleading dialogue options and Max Mode is just strange. Overall this game is about experiencing the story that’s put in front of you and it does that in an engaging way.
Shu's platforming is well made and intense, leading to a fun game that speed runners and casual platform fans alike can enjoy. It's just a little on the short side.
Evil is a tough nut to crack, but Obsidian have made a few fractures in the shell surrounding it; the next step is to break it wide open with a sequel. Otherwise, Tyranny will likely remain a cult classic RPG in the vein of Arcanum or Suikoden; great ideas that ultimately fall short of their full potential.
After finishing Steins;Gate 0, I can't think of it as a sequel. With how well it fits into the original story, complimenting it - Steins;Gate 0 feels like the missing half to the original that I didn't even know I wanted, let alone needed. Now that I've read it though, I can't think of Steins;Gate without it.
Sky Break will pale in comparison to any larger open world game, but for it's size, it packs a lot of power.
The Jackbox Party Pack 3 brings a couple of great party games to almost any device you have, while a few included aren't quite as good as others as a package deal, it's something fun to bring to any party.
Xanadu Next encapsulates the design philosophies of the early-to-mid 2000's Falcom, culminating in one of the best PC games I've played in years. You owe it to yourself to give this game a shot.
Blazblue: Central Fiction represents the best and most refined version of a game that has been evolving since 2009. If you've ever wanted to pick up a 2D anime fighting game, this is the one to get.
Kim is a charming and enjoyable experience that successfully conveys the overall feeling and atmosphere of Kipling's novel. Despite being a little rough around the edges, the overall package that results is both interesting and fun to play.
Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare is easily the best entry into the series in a long time. While I'm not a huge fan of zombies, the campaign is easily my favorite Call of Duty has had to offer while the multiplayer is still a blast. If you want a lot of bang for your buck, Infinite Warfare has a ton to offer
Small Radios Big Televisions has trippy visuals and an interesting premise but fails to accomplish anything meaningful as an interactive experience. Add that to its ephemeral nature, and it's unfortunate just how forgettable this adventure can be.
Clockwork Empires has a solid foundation, but all of the events that should be challenging and tell memorable stories mostly end up being small blips on the game's radar.
Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 makes masssive improvements over it's predecessor but suffers from a lack of originality in the long run. It feels more like an extension of Xenoverse rather than a sequel.
Aside from being incredibly fun to play, by yourself or with a friend, the game captures that silly Monty Python vibe exceptionally well. Hours of slanderous and humorous enjoyment await players in this simple to play argument battler.
Hokkaido is a beautiful setting that looks far more complex and daunting than it really is. All in all, if a typical Hitman level is what you want, Japan will provide.
A slight step back from previous episodes, New World Order is still an interesting chapter that provides the best twist to come from the game yet.
Kyurinaga’s Revenge is a broken mess of a platformer. With unresponsive controls, demanding platforming, and frustrating boss battles, this game is proof that some vegetables just aren't good for you.
