IGN's Reviews
Mario Kart 8 is a fun kart racer that uses gravity-defying tracks and better item balance to build a better game.
With its deep, varied gameplay, Sportsfriends is the most exciting local multiplayer game since Wii Sports.
Infused with a novel concept, Super Time Force is both fun and frustrating.
In Harm's Way is another excellent episode of @TelltaleGames' The Walking Dead with superb character moments.
While parts of Bound By Flame are messy, its combat is strong enough to keep the fire stoked.
Titan Attacks is an enjoyable ode to Space Invaders, and a good way to waste some time on PS3, PS4, and Vita.
Outlast: Whistleblower's hellish adventure is still scary, but relies too heavily on the same old tricks.
Tex Murphy's latest weaves campy live action, silly puns, and convoluted mysteries into a fun, if dated adventure.
Sir, You Are Being Hunted is a dynamic and atmospheric stealth game that'll kill you politely.
It's super-fun to swing around New York City in The Amazing Spider-Man 2! Everything else, on the other hand...
Daylight's horror atmosphere starts strong, but repetitive corridors and nonthreatening enemies squander it quickly.
With its gorgeous art, exemplary combat, and hand-crafted aesthetic, no RPG fan should miss Child of Light.
The Last Federation is a new kind of space game, but its strategy can't keep up with its strong tactics.
Kirby Triple Deluxe may look great and has some clever ideas for how to use 3D, but falls into a rut of simple platforming and puzzles that rarely require any thought or skill. I admire that it tries to give us more powers and abilities to play with than ever before, but that empowerment shouldn't come at the expense of any real difficulty.
You don't have to be a hardcore golf fan to get hooked on Mario Golf: World Tour. It rewards good play, gives plenty to do, and is a great teacher. Its incremental approach to challenge kept me coming back to test myself, and the post-game challenges and multiplayer modes inspired me to play in new ways even after I thought I was a pro.
Revisiting retro games in NES Remix 2 is a fun way to revisit the classics, or introduce them to someone new.
Ether One dives into a world of dementia and returns in stylish, if bittersweet, triumph.
Trials Fusion's precision controls and exacting challenge make it a great pickup for leaderboard perfectionists.
A fun and charming extension of the film that nevertheless suffers from some disjointed story problems and some sameness of characters.
Halfway through the first season of A Wolf Among Us, A Crooked Mile represents a new high point in the story.
