Despite a few flaws, this is the essential party game for your Wii U.
DKCTF is a quality game that was released to both capitalize on the sleeper-success that was DKCR on the Wii and fill a gap in the Wii U's release schedule. While I cannot cite any glaring flaws in the game, the parts of the game that excite me most are more cosmetic than substantiative. Nevertheless, I do recommend this latest entry in the Donkey Kong franchise for fans of DK and platform games in general—just know that this isn't the next Mario Galaxy.
Ori and the Blind Forest is a beautiful Metroid-style game with great storytelling, fun mechanics, and top notch gameplay. A must-buy for every Xbox One owner looking to do more than shoot stuff.
Homeworld Remastered delivers a beautiful but flawed HD update of two of the greatest RTS ever. While Homeworld 2 is stable, bugs in Homeworld will confound newcomers while many of the fundamental changes therein may alienate veterans.
Dragon Ball fans will love Xenoverse for its wide customization options and fast-paced action that delivers... and delivers strong.
While Five Nights at Freddy's 3 is still a solid game, it is not on par with the first two entries.
Titanfall was a big surprise to me. It is a very fun and addictive game. Respawn's attention to detail is great.
Total War fans looking looking to experience the fall rather than the rise of Western Civilization should definitely invest some time into Attila. However, due to the scope of the campaign map, newcomers may want to approach with caution as the learning curve is even more severe than usual.
The Order: 1886 delivers a beautifully realized and delivered science fiction story that everyone should experience. Sadly, it provides no reason to ever go back after the credits roll.
One day Elite: Dangerous might be worth the price tag, but currently it is not.
Another great platformer that takes full advantage of the Wii U's GamePad. Every Wii U owner should buy this game as soon as possible.
After all these years, Tetris is still a challenging but fun game.
Castle In The Darkness is a faithful ode to a generation of games gone-by. It will leave you smiling wide at times and banging your head in frustration at others, but it will always keep you coming back due to its sheer likability.
An intriguing, action-based card game that I would definitely recommend.
If you're looking for a good story-driven game, this probably isn't for you.
This War of Mine is a fantastic jolt of dark, indie magic.
Dying Light is a fun, long-lasting zombie-parkour experience in the vein of Far Cry, Skyrim, and Mirror's Edge.
The Crew had an amazing game on their hands until they ruined it with the must win condition.
Rayman Legends positively compliments the long-standing franchise and is a fantastic alternative to a certain other platform franchise which features four simultaneous players.
It's a great game for a younger audience who wouldn't mind the slowness to it, but for those who are used to instant gratification games, this is not for you.
