VGChartz's Reviews
In the end, Platinum didn't need to do much to make Mutants in Manhattan a worthwhile experience. All it had to do was respect the source material, create some satisfying combat mechanics, and honor the series' local multiplayer origins. It failed largely at all three.
Lumo is a shout back to all those games many of us love and miss. It's frustrating at times, but when you skate this close to the source material it’s to be expected, and is a risk worth taking.
A creative, open-ended game rich in emergent gameplay that's sadly spoiled by technical problems.
A package that's worthy of any gamer.
Anyone who enjoys a challenging yet rewarding tactical RPG should set aside time to play Valkyria Chronicles Remastered, a game that may have no peer in the genre.
While both the content and overall experience may not be perfect, collectively they compose a bold, engrossing, brilliant blockbuster of a game that should absolutely be experienced.
It’s an eccentric title but its quirks and flaws somehow make it even more charming and quintessentially British.
Paranautical Activity is a mixed bag designed for a niche audience. If you like twitch shooters, permadeath, and high difficult levels, this is a game that's worth considering. If you're a shooting fan who wants more structure and predictability, Paranautical Activity is probably a skip.
If this is to be the Vita's swan song, so be it. It's arguably DrinkBox's greatest work, and it's an early contender for game of the year.
In every way it's the faithful successor to Star Fox 64 that fans have been anticipating for almost 20 years.
Despite its low profile and low price, Star Fox Zero is a blast to play.
Some of the more painful and disappointing types of games to play are those that have obvious potential but are unable to truly shine as a result of some preventable blunders. Stories: The Path of Destinies is unfortunately one of those titles.
It can be brutally, even impossibly difficult at times, but if you're able to reconcile yourself to that then you'll be gungeoneering for some time to come.
Faithfully restored and rich in nostalgic goodness, Day of the Tentacle Remastered is easy to recommend, both to LucasArts fanatics and adventure game newcomers.
Although elements of the game can become repetitive or frustrating, Black Desert Online does provide a staggering amount of content and is well worth considering if you're looking to try out a new MMORPG.
While the presentation continues to go from strength to strength, almost everything else falls spectacularly flat.
Its brilliance goes well beyond its brazen art style and extends to a challenging but highly rewarding combat system.
An ode to the Souls series as well as an excellent Metroidvania game in its own right.
Pokkén Tournament is an unqualified success.
The biggest drawback is the lack of any major new additions, aside from the upgraded graphics. The other changes are fine, but in comparing this package to some other remakes and remasters, it feels a little bit wanting.
