If you’re a fan of the series, picking up Superdimension is a no-brainer. If you’ve new to it, though, I’d say this title is a pretty good entry point.
With older versions available everywhere, it can make the currently $20 price tag for this version a bit hard to swallow. However, World Tour is still a great game, especially for the old-school-minded gamer.
If you want to get into Final Fantasy, or have been into it for a while now, World of Final Fantasy is a game you should check out.
While the game may deserve a lower score if just gameplay is considered…as a sensory experience and work of art, I feel this title very much makes up for those shortcomings.
For fans of Falcom’s works, dungeon crawlers, action RPGs, or just anyone looking for a new addiction, I can’t recommend Xanadu Next highly enough.
Even for fans of the Senran Kagura, or Kenichirou Takaki’s works in general, Valkyrie Drive is just a massive step back in gameplay. Graphical presentation is really the only thing the title has going for it…and the only thing saving it from getting a lower score.
I’d say, even with all of this taken into consideration, that Adam Wolfe is a game worth looking at…although I’d say wait until it’s on sale. With a couple of weak episodes and some presentation issues, I’d find it hard to justify paying full price for the experience.
A soundtrack with a bit more effort put into it may have been able to help overcome the other issues. Unfortunately, the package as it is just isn’t a very good game.
At the end of the day, Final Fantasy XV is a great first step into an open world action RPG. However, its various systematic issues and poor story hold it back.
While I can't speak for the fighting game specialists or professionals out there, for the general gaming public, Nitroplus Blasterz is definitely a title that's worth a look.
The amount of content stuffed in here makes the game a really good value for the asking price. It's worth a pickup, but make sure you prepare yourself for a serious test of skill.
If you’re a platforming fan, or just a gamer that’s looking for some straight-up fun, Shantae: Half-Genie Hero is definitely a title that should be on your radar.
The story may be somewhat weak, but don’t let that deter you from picking this one up. Even though the game is short (my playthrough was about 4 hours), this is definitely something worth looking at.
The product we have now, though, is somewhat lacking. If you’re interested in Gurumin, I’d probably point you in the direction of last year’s Steam release.
It shows why people fell in love with it in the first place, and it’s a great way to fall in love with Miku and the gang all over again…or for the first time.
There’s very little I can complain about here, and those things are so minor as to be insignificant. As such, I would like to award Yakuza 0 with a full score. PS4 owners would be doing themselves a disservice by not including this in their libraries.
If you’re a fan of the Fate franchise or the musou genre, this title is definitely worth a look. To the general gaming public, I’d say to rent it first and see if it holds up for you before purchasing.
While the series is no longer the co-op action game that I came to enjoy, I can’t deny that its new first person perspective and successful return to its survival horror roots make for a fantastic entry to the series.
I would highly encourage Omega Force and Koei Tecmo to continue this tactical spinoff into its own franchise. While Godseekers is somewhat mediocre, there’s a lot of promise here that could be built upon to create something great.
The amount of extra content and inclusion of DLC is reason enough to pick this up for sheer value alone.
