IGN's Reviews
Massive in size, and meticulously detailed, The Witcher 3 ends Geralt's story on a high note.
Invisible Inc's randomized and repeatable sci-fi heists create one tough, risky tactical decision after another.
Wolfenstein: The Old Blood doubles down on blood and guts, but in doing so sacrifices some of its heart.
Deep and demanding but incredibly user-friendly, Project CARS is real racing done right.
Smart co-op partners make Shadowrun Chronicles: Boston Lockdown's tactical combat work, but anything less falls short.
Spellcasting in Magicka: Wizard Wars is good fun, but it's not a perfect fit with MOBA-style multiplayer.
It might not look like much, but BoxBoy is one of the cleverest puzzle platformers I've ever played. The constant variety gave me dozens of uses for Qbby's simple-to-learn self-replicating abilities. Coupled with great pacing and level designs that encourage and reward experimentation, I just couldn't put it down until I'd cleared the 18-world campaign and put some time into the delightful side challenges.
Story of Seasons' kept me occupied for well over 30 hours, and even then I could have kept playing until the cows came home. It took awhile for the interesting options for running my farm and business to open up, but the mix of strategy and good old-fashioned simulation made it all worthwhile. It may not have the prestigious Harvest Moon name, but Story of Seasons is definitely the bees' knees.
Broken Age: Act 2 is an amazing adventure filled with great writing and fantastic puzzles.
The Consequence falls short of greatness, but chills with gruesome bosses and spectacular environments.
State of Decay's unique gameplay remains intact on Xbox One, as does its jankyness. Nevertheless, don't miss YOSE.
An inspired rhythm-action roguelike powered by an excellent soundtrack. You'll dig it.
Dungeons 2 tries to revitalize dungeon management games...and falls on its face in the process.
Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China does a lot of the hard stuff well, but can't convey the rush of being an assassin.
StarDrive 2's ship building is top notch, but the flawed game surrounding it keeps it from ever truly shining.
Predictably, GTA 5 remains a masterpiece of a game. Surprisingly, the PC version is technically excellent.
Great new characters, and sharper gameplay hooks make Mortal Kombat X the best game in the series.
Titan Souls' creative fights and fluid controls make for intensely satisfying and rewarding one-hit-kill combat.
Turning the simple act of making toast into a Herculean task, I Am Bread is as vexing as it is irresistible.
MLB 15: The Show is an excellent, complete package, but there are no game-changing new features this year.
