Fans of Travis’ previous adventures may be disappointed by this down-scaling but in reducing the size of his vision, Suda has been able to finally begin adapting it for a modern market.

7.1 / 10.0 - Coffee Crisis
Jan 14, 2019

The 16-bit charm, ‘80s style metal music, tongue-in-cheek references and simplistic gameplay makes it a fun time killer, if not a must play.

It's definitely a great game and playing it on Switch is certainly the way it was always meant to be played

8 / 10 - Just Cause 4
Jan 8, 2019

Just Cause 4 isn’t new. But it does what it does well. If you’re a fan of the first, second or third you will have just as much fun with the fourth.

There’s some fun to be had here, don’t get me wrong, but with a little more time and effort, and some better choices of games this could have been a solid recommendation.

It’s simple, really, Diablo 3 Eternal Collection for the Nintendo Switch is one of the best games available on the platform, period, and it comes highly recommended.

9.5 / 10.0 - GRIS
Dec 13, 2018

It’s deeply spiritual, achingly human, immaculately constructed and absolutely demands to be experienced in a time when games and art are finally indistinguishable from one another.

The release of Persona 5 Dancing in Starlight and Persona 3 Dancing in Moonlight is a niche within a niche.

6.1 / 10.0 - Gensokyo Defenders
Dec 13, 2018

Gensokyo Defenders really surprised me and reignited my interest in the genre. It had enough action as a stick-shooter that I wasn’t just setting traps and hoping that was enough

Jagged Alliance Rage is missing a few important features that would make it Jagged Alliance 3. It is a damn good game that is a perfect stepping stone for another in the franchise.

Cursed Kingdom is a fun, occasionally frustrating, romp through a world I hope we get to revisit one day.

7.1 / 10.0 - NBA 2K19
Dec 3, 2018

I think 2K19 is totally fine. The game is huge and if you like a grind the game will be long too.

NBA 2K Playgrounds 2 is the perfect antidote to the realness of NBA 2K19. It’s fast, simple and easy to get into. You’ll have a great time playing alone or with friends and the game never stops being a fun time.

I think this game can be easily enjoyed by adults and kids alike. The unique worlds are chock full of unique flora and fauna as well as enemies and allies to observe, battle and aid in a constant struggle against the forces of evil.

It’s not flawless, but it’s a damn good time that only asks that you ‘Git Gud.’
