Forza Motorsport 7 is another great addition to the franchise. Its stunning visuals are going to be a sight to seen on the Xbox One X. It is really a shame that not everyone is a racing fan, because this will be the game that will be testing the horsepower of that new console.
Yomawari: Midnight Shadows is everything I could want in a horror title, featuring a riveting story and a unique premise for the horror genre as a whole. Although the controls can sometimes get in the way, Midnight Shadows is an excellent adventure that will please any horror aficionado.
There are times when Wulverblade can be very difficult, especially with some gameplay mechanics that work against players. However, the experience became more enjoyable as I became master over them. The finale is also one of my favorite gaming experiences of the year.
ELEX has some good ideas that will appeal to fans of Sci Fi and Fantasy. Unfortunately, the game is plagued with issues that hold it back from reaching its potential. There's fun to be had here, but the hurdles to get there are severe.
Buy Golf Story. Seriously! You will not regret one cent. I have fallen in love with the design, world and story. If you want one of the best indie games of the year for your Nintendo Switch, Golf Story is a hole in one!
While the ending is weak, the gameplay and puzzles make up for this nostalgic game.
Morphite is most likely not the grand envisioning of No Man's Sky we all hoped for, but for being an indie budget title there is a whole lot to keep you invested in. The story alone is intriguing enough to see through to the end.
Overgrowth is a bold idea that could have been great, but its terrible combat mechanics and lack of content bog it down.
StudioMDHR Entertainment could not further increase the quality of Cuphead if they resurrected Walt Disney and had him pencil the animations himself, or have Bach compose the OST. The game is that gosh-darn good.
Overall, I really enjoyed Tooth and Tail and the anthropomorphic animals with their retro-like aesthetic were whimsical and charming to look at. There is a lot of strategy and fun to be had with the controls never feeling too complicated, even while using a controller.
If you want to play a game with your child or just want to collect a lot of stuff, The Lego Ninjago Movie Video Game is right for you.
The only thing Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite has going for it is solid gameplay. The artstyle unfortunately suffers from cringe-worthy character design, and there isn't much replayability after players have finished the story and mastered every character via the mission mode.
Grab a *console* version, sit back, let go, and be ready to laugh with some friends at your multiple attempts to think (and fail to think) like a snake in this fun and challenging puzzle game.
Forget this game exists and go play Danganronpa 2.
Valkyria Revolution should have been a single-season anime. Instead, we've gotten a game that's frustrating on the surface, boring in practice, and infuriating to reflect on. Save both your time and money.
Citadale: The Legends Trilogy is a fun and challenging nostalgia trip in a similar vein to the Castlevania series. It is a great purchase for nostalgia fans and new players looking for a game with more challenge than modern platformers.
Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer is a very enjoyable game until you realize that nothing you do really has any lasting effect on the game or its citizens.
Mario+Rabbids: Kingdom Battle was the the biggest surprise from Nintendo at E3 2017. Seemingly coming out nowhere and combining elements of gameplay that Nintendo hasn't really utilized before Ubisoft Milan and Nintendo came together to create one of Nintendo Switch's best games to date.
Dino Dinis's Kick Off Revival is clearly a title designed to draw in fans of the original series and gameplay styles. Its downfall is more in its lack of effort in attracting new players and relying on the "git gud" philosophy of investing a lot of time for what is ultimately little payoff. Fans of the series will love the new audio and visuals, but anyone else should seriously consider any other soccer simulation game before this.
Hover: Revolt of Gamers is a humbling lesson in setting expectations versus what comes into fruition in reality. Disappointment is the end result.
