Yakuza 6: The Song of Life is a good example of how to handle a series with multiple sequels. It builds on its strength to offer a satisfying conclusion to the story of Kazuma Kiryu.
Attack on Titan 2 is a pleasant surprise as a sequel. It is remarkable to see how the developers have managed to learn from their mistakes and turned the complete game around after a mediocre start.
A classic trilogy of games featuring the titular hero Dante, which is now available to play with its warts and all on the current generation consoles and PC.
A simple remaster that focuses on delivering an experience that closely replicates the original. It is purely for fans of the Burnout series although newcomers who are interested can also give it a chance.
Final Fantasy XV Royal Pack expansion feels like a significant addition to the main game by improving its end game content, but it comes at the expense of alienating a major portion of its audience who now have to pay for it in order to get the same experience as the newcomers with Royal Edition.
This is easily one of the finest remakes by Bluepoint Games. The improved visuals elevate the experience to a whole another level that is unmatched by even some of the more recent open world games.
Fear Effect Sedna is a major disappointment especially if you are a fan of the series. The game certainly is ambitious but that doesn't help it solve many of its underlying problems.
Radiant Historia: Perfect Chronology feels like an unnecessary remake of otherwise a great game that is one of the best time travelling RPG for the Nintendo 3DS.
This is a flawed racing game that can still be fun if you can overlook some of its flaws. It suffers from a lack of polish and underwhelming visuals but the driving mechanics are simple to grasp making it easier to recommend for a newcomer to racing games.
This feels like a passion project that is extremely polished. It might not offer much replay value but as a brief experience, it is worth its asking price.
Pac-man Championship Edition 2 Plus is an amazing arcade game with addictive gameplay and a catchy soundtrack that will keep you engaged for a long time.
Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet is more of a curious experiment for the series that attempts to take it into a new direction with some major glaring flaws.
Metal Gear Survive is a strange mix of survival horror with open world. On the one hand, there are some superb ideas seen in the game that could have been great to play but on the other hand, the game constantly keeps testing your patience by forcing you to micromanage the health of your character.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance might lack the technical polish of most large scale projects but it certainly doesn't fail to deliver an ambitious and expansive open world RPG.
Secret of Mana HD has retained its charm after all these years however some of its dated gameplay needs to be overhauled in order to make it one of the better remakes released by Square Enix.
An enjoyable experience featuring light RPG mechanics, platforming and tower defense all in a single game. Aegis Defenders is a must have for fans of the genre.
Owlboy is brilliantly paced from the start to the end with a well-developed cast of characters. It is one of the most impressive metroidvania game from an indie developer this generation.
Disc Jam is a fun co-op experience if you play it on the Nintendo Switch but it doesn't hide the fact that the game lacks content for its offline single player mode.
Fe is a charming adventure game that succeeds at world building but there are some aspects of its game design that can also make it a frustrating experience.
This is the first time Dynasty Warriors has made it to an open world, but unfortunately it has also resulted in a product that is bloated and feels dated in term of the open world design. It is a good step forward for the series but it needs a lot more tweaks in order to remain relevant for any potential future entries.
