Stevivor's Reviews
Playing Overcooked 2, it's evident that Ghost Games understood what worked and what didn't in the original. New mechanics feel like an evolution of core gameplay rather than the likes of a DLC pack that adds a couple new chefs or kitchens. Even new recipes like different varieties of sushi feel fun and fresh, with different components that need to be left raw or cooked.
I envy anyone out there experiencing No Man's Sky for the first time this month.
Danger Zone 2 isn't quite as much fun as I remember Burnout being.
Captain Toad always felt like a handheld game
Ultimately, Mooncrash is another great reason to get into Prey.
The Crew 2 is very similar to what the original offered: arcade fun.
Playdead has greatly improved how it delivers a story, but hasn't moved away from ambiguity. The latter three-quarters of Inside cheapens the otherwise refined package, only saved because the studio is the undisputed master of horrific puzzles. Ending aside, it's definitely worth a look.
Ultimately, Donkey Kong Adventure is more Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, even if it overstays its welcome just a little bit.
Jurassic World: Evolution is a decent movie tie-in with amazing potential; if Frontier can equip players with the knowledge they need to tackle its increasingly difficult island chain, this one will have some legs.
I'm not about to ruin how Captain Spirit feeds into Life is Strange 2, but let's just say this: it's apparent, by the end of this experience, what to expect from Dontnod's next title. I reckon you won't be disappointed.
It's the best of Mario Tennis and Wii Sports motion tennis rolled into one game, but in distinct and very seperate modes, it just lacks one thing: being able to play a proper set of tennis.
It seems like good party game, but even then it lacks the longevity that would make you want to come back for more after 30 minutes or so. It's a fun premise, but one that's a few years too late.
In reality, poorly developed mechanics are your enemies in Agony, not the demons you're supposed to be afraid of.
Moonlighter is a wonderful combination of Zelda and Animal Crossing that easily commands your constant attention. It looks beautiful with a lovely, pixelated style; music from the shop and the dungeons will be stuck in your head for days. The only fault I could find with Moonlighter it's relatively short — I wanted more dungeons, more enemies to topple, more items to sell.
Don't think I can't see right through you, Detroit!
Despite these flaws, State of Decay 2 is incredibly enjoyable
If you're a huge Zelda fan you might get a kick out of Hyrule Warriors and if you're a Dynasty Warriors fan you're sure to find something to love. If you missed this on Wii U, it's worth a go, but if you've been there and done that, you're probably best saving your money for something else
Laser League is a budget-priced gem.
Bungie promised big things for Destiny 2's newest DLC, Warmind, and has only partially delivered. Par for the course, really.
Go out and get Donkey Kong: Tropical Freeze immediately.
