IGN's Reviews
Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor's great action and dynamic enemies make both victory and defeat an amazing experience.
It's a racer informed by many others but, when it comes to open-world racing games, Forza Horizon 2 is best-in-class.
Dance Central Spotlight has fewer features than its predecessors, but it still has the moves to keep the party going.
FIFA 15 is still one of the best sports simulations around, with superb animation and big-match atmosphere.
Full of meaningful choices and rich lore, Wasteland 2 justifies the 26-year wait for a sequel.
Fenix Rage is a brutal platformer that provides plenty of challenge, but is ultimately mired in frustration.
Almost everything about Endless Legend's grand strategy works in lush, beautiful harmony…except the endgame.
Fans of Deadly Premonition will love this bizarre, offbeat murder mystery.
Hack 'n' Slash mostly nails the new things it tries, but stumbles on the simple stuff, making it fun, but flawed.
Disney Infinity 2.0 has a lot of improvements, Toy Box is still great, but it doesn't feel like a major upgrade.
Minimum's style is surprisingly engaging, but the imbalanced combat will have you swinging swords or flinging s-words.
Hyrule Warriors brings the worlds of Zelda and Dynasty Warriors closer together in a fun, repetitive action game.
Planetary Annihilation's
I had a blast playing Final Fantasy: Curtain Call. It's easy to pick up and play, and the controls are smooth and responsive. (Though every once in awhile they seemed slightly finicky during field music stages.) Being able to play something that celebrates over two decades of excellent music brought me lots of joy, and serves as a reminder that Final Fantasy has some of the best music in video game history.
NHL 15 is fun to play and pretty to look at, but it's disappointingly light on modes to keep you hooked on hockey.
Minecraft on PS4 and Xbox One is the same amazing game, but with even bigger worlds than we've see on consoles before.
With zombies, more is better. Dead Rising 3 delivers the undead and great tools to kill them with by the truckload.
Destiny looks and plays wonderfully, but too many of the other promises it makes get left unfulfilled.
Velocity 2X successfully builds upon the speed of the original with its awesome new side-scrolling sections.
Sims are always entertaining, but they're not living life to its fullest in The Sims 4.
