Fans may be curious, but, honestly, any given Animal Crossing experience (even, in some respects, Happy Home Designer) would be better than what this pale little board game-based hoopla has to offer.
This isn't really so much of an Ultra Smash, as it barely qualifies as "just flying over the net."
An old employment credo stands firm with a game like Xenoblade Chronicles X – the more you put into it, the more you get out of it. The question is if you're ready to endure that trial…and there's no question that many fans will be.
This may be one of the most fulfilling Call of Duty games I've played yet, and as manic as it may be, it certainly backs up everything it promises. Kudos to Treyarch for going the extra mile, and proving that, yes, it's still one of the best developers for this job.
Sword Art Online: Lost Song is a great sequel to its predecessor Hollow Fragment and introduces a plethora of new and interesting mechanics. However, the majority of these mechanics like spells and healing are put in the backburner in the singleplayer story, and are only ever viable in multiplayer mode.
If you're looking for a wacky yet fun FPS you'll want to check out tinyBuild's new game Lovely Planet as soon as you can.
What I found on the other end of that start game button was a title that entranced me, that made me want to keep coming back. A world that is massive, but made traversing simple and fun. I wanted to explore Harnakon more and more.
It's a great game, but not for everyone, especially those that freak out over flashing lights, or get into a controller-breaking frenzy when you keep dying over and over again.
The game does an amazing job of making you care about everything that's happened.
The relationships are strong right out of the gate and at times I felt like made a decision that I didn't want to make, but had to for the greater good.
I may never figure out what's going on inside the head of Jonathan Blow – or what the deal really was with that "piss jug" picture he posted on Twitter – but there's no denying his savvy when it comes to game development.
Hey, sometimes you need to take it back to the old-school and remember what survival is all about – and that's just what Primal does.
It's literally everything you could want in a party game – and for the first time in quite a while, you can bring the kids, too.
There's enough online action and learnable stuff here to make Street Fighter V a decent purchase, but you can't sit there and tell me that Capcom couldn't have delayed this until everything was ready in June and benefitted for the greater because of it. There's just no way.
I would love to see Shantae released as a physical copy, due to my collecting habits, to put her newest adventure on the shelf with the greats, where she belongs.
Stardew Valley is an extremely charming, polished, and nuanced game that is a breath of fresh air in the management game genre and the entire games industry as a whole. I don't think I've had so much stress-free fun in a game for years, and would highly recommend it to anyone.
To be straightforward this is a one-of-a-kind game that is worth coming back to even after you've beaten it.
Players who speak highly of games like Etrian Odyssey on the 3DS or those who played a ton of Eye of the Beholder back in the day may fall in love with the crazy monsters and style of Stranger of Sword City.
Axiom Verge is an interesting tribute to the classics of video games that will, without a doubt, stand among those greats as a classic itself.
Between the puzzles that need to be solved throughout this world (enough to fill up a few hours’ worth of gameplay), enthralling battles and a superb presentation, Severed gives you another good reason to cherish your Vita.
