VGChartz's Reviews
Heroes of the Storm can improve with future patches, and will have to do so if it wants to compete with more established titles in this fiercely competitive genre.
As good as S&S2 threatens to be, the wireless connected elephant in the room overshadows proceedings, offering a tantalising glimpse of what S&S2 could have been rather than a celebration of what there is.
It's not an easy life, and this is not an easy game; some will find it greatly rewarding, but they are likely in the minority.
All in all, colour me surprisingly impressed by Project CARS.
Splatoon may not be everyone's favorite fish in the sea, but for those looking for a fun multiplayer game on Wii U, this is a great catch.
Nom Nom Galaxy certainly isn't perfect, but it's hard to be too disappointed in a game that is so adept in two areas I'm particularly fond of in gaming - crafting and base building.
Sunset certainly has its niggles, and is rather slow and plodding compared to other indie titles, but this only slightly detracts from some impressive narrative accomplishments.
The journey so far has definitely been worth it.
It's in the simplicity of Not a Hero that you find complexity, with pixelated graphics belying strong humour, and basic gameplay mechanics hiding a complex, balanced game.
Mortal Kombat X stands tall as the pinnacle of the Mortal Kombat franchise.
Convoy is a remarkable debut for developer Convoy Games.
If you weren't a massive fan of the first episode then this second one is unlikely to change your opinion of the series, but if you enjoyed exploring the world and characters in that first episode then Out of Time has a lot to offer.
I can't help but wish there was more content for the price of entry, but it's a unique experience that most gamers should at least consider trying out.
Sword in the Darkness is a step in the right direction for the series. Sharp, unhurried yet eventful, the disastrous consequences of small decisions means that every conversation is conducted with the utmost care.
It introduces enough twists to the established gameplay formula to make it feel fresh again, and will turn a sword and board turtle into a bloodthirsty, dual blade wielding madman.
There's lots to appreciate about Bladestorm: Nightmare, with only its drawn-out gameplay and technical issues holding it back. Until those are worked out, perhaps this series is destined to remain with simply cult appeal.
A rare gem that truly shows the potential for games as a medium.
A convoluted storyline designed to pad out the game's length and some questionable level design which departs from the series' 'tough but fair' appeal makes this title weaker than its predecessor, but yet another sublime soundtrack, larger, even more brutally difficult stages, and a finely tuned gameplay experience helps to somewhat salvage things.
The characters are starting to grow, the plot to thicken, and the intrigue to whisper in darkened rooms.
OlliOlli 2 is an evolution of the series, rather than a revolution, and whilst it may not have as big of an impact as the original, it still introduces some excellent changes, bringing with it numerous little tweaks and improvements.
