Dull encounters mean a great Job system never gets a chance to shine.

8.5 / 10.0 - Project X Zone 2
Feb 25, 2016

My minor gripe about cutscenes aside, PXZ 2 is a game that combines disparate characters and game licenses tremendously well. From the opening moments it balances being both ridiculous and entertaining with a story that packs in more time travelling than perhaps any story in history. Gameplay is excellent, mashing together tactical RPGs with a combo system that I couldn't get enough of. While I missed the original Project X Zone, this sequel has more than grabbed my attention. I certainly won't be missing a potential third instalment.

A fun, mature entry in the Digimon series, let down by the verbose story and lack of challenge.

Perfectly bridges the gap between casual games and hardcore shooters.

Driving and customising the buggy is a lot of fun, but not at the expense of tight parkour.

A wonderful, but short, plot that will have you believing you own real life detective skills.

9.9 / 10.0 - The Witness
Feb 5, 2016

Not so much filled with "a-ha!" moments. They're more like epiphanies.

A fresh, compelling take on the "cabin in the woods"-style teen horror.

6 / 10.0 - Hardware: Rivals
Feb 3, 2016

I'm old enough that I can say I've been playing games like this since they first started coming out. So after a few days of playing I give it a passing grade but not by much. I mean, it's always fun to drive around and blow up things, that's why these games keep being made. So while Hardware Rivals is fun for a while it still has a lot of annoyances to overcome.
