Halfway is eyeccandy for the fans of science fiction, and can deliver a great story. Sadly, the gameplay is just not there.
Pure Pool delivers one of the most fun and authentic pool experience you can get on any platform. It can be recommended even for those who are not into the sport that much.
The Swapper is a short, but sweetly addictive puzzle platformer that begs the statement, "If Dead Space were only a puzzle game."
Rogue Legacy harkens back to an older era of gaming. The art style is pixelated and colorful and the music is reminiscent of the more-limited chipsets of yesteryear. Akin to such games as 1001 Spikes and Dark Souls in difficulty, Rogue Legacy will give most players a run for their money, however, the slick progression system, rich sense of humor, and overall cadence of the game is perfect for hardcore gamers or those wanting to play in bits on a commute or with only a couple minutes of downtime.
SQUIDS Odyssey finally gets the 3D treatment, bringing a combination of tactical strategy and lighthearted RPG fun to the 3DS.
The puzzles overall are really fun to work out and are challenging at the same time.
I can't wait to see what FROMSOFTWARE does with the second and third parts of the DLC entries.
Valiant Hearts is a gut-wrenching journey about the brutality of war that reminds us all just how important friendship is in this world.
"Amid the Ruins" is a quieter more thoughtful entry in The Walking Dead Season 2 putting it at a stark contrast to other entries in the episode. When they deaths and action come however, it is more impactful despite the player's lack of overall impact on some inevitable fates.
Overall Larian has produced a real gem with Original Sin and a fitting addition to the Divinity franchise.
Aside from the bugs Sniper Elite 3 is a good game, the survival mode is really fun too. If the game seems too easy for you, you can always crank up the difficulty. I played on Marksman (Normal) and plowed through the game with very little issues. If you want an epic story, and ground breaking game play then you might want to stay clear of Sniper Elite 3. Just make sure you buy this game for next-gen consoles.
Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition is beautiful 2D Metroidvania styled game for all ages.
Organic Panic introduces a well-designed war between Meat & Cheese and Fruit & Vegetables. Deceivingly difficult, this game is as time consuming and entertaining as it is frustrating to advance.
Yacht Club Games "Shovel Knight" is a testament to what gaming was in the past and what it can be today. Not only does it feature old school graphics and gameplay but they've crafted that all types of gamers can relate and enjoy their crafted masterpiece. An indie gem that should not not be missed by anyone who enjoys gaming.
Guacemelee is fun, hilarious and challenging... so why aren't you playing it?
If you're looking for a game that's different and enjoy paranormal lore, then I would recommend this to try out. I'm not disappointed on spending the money on launch day to play it. I certainly knew to expect something different and for that, Square Enix doesn't disappoint. A visually stunning game with wonderful writing.
Tropico 5 really wants you to win the hearts of your people as dictator. Well, maybe a little.
The Wolf Among Us unsurprisingly remains top-notch from beginning to end of its penultimate episode of the season, but minor hiccups prevent In Sheep's Clothing from rising to the top.
Watch Dogs is a fantastic entry in the free roam genre. Not without areas to improve, Watch Dogs is a unique base that Ubisoft will build a new franchise on.
MachineGames combines old with new in an homage to 90's shooters that carries both gibs and heart.
