One could also make the argument that if a game's story is poor, the gameplay can at least make up for it, and vice versa. Husk manages come frustratingly close at times, leaving the game undone by its inconsistency.
The whole thing was breathtaking.
I could see how this could have been a great mobile game to spend a couple minutes on at a time, but not so much as a standalone console game to sit with for extended sessions.
But know this; Nioh is an incredible action RPG game that should not be missed.
Though the world you explore is 3D and is peppered with breath-taking sceneries and interesting creatures scurrying about the ocean, once you peer inside a ship, or dock onto a settlement, it switches to a beautiful, hand-drawn 2D environment.
ION LANDS delivers a game of components that, while sparse on their own, combine to make an enjoyable experience.
You will do things that make you feel like a genius just for thinking of them.
Cliches are the death of interesting characters and Earthlock is all too willing to draw its own characters’ chalk outlines and willingly lay them down in it.
Rave in the Red Woods is by far the strongest part of the Sabotage DLC, and honestly one of the best zombies maps in years.
Poochy and Yoshi’s Woolly World retains much of the traditional “Yoshi” style gameplay you’ve likely played in past Yoshi games such as 2014’s Yoshi’s New Island.
But like Capcom did with Mega Man 9 and 10, Double Dragon IV looks and plays like an NES Double Dragon.
Aside from the awful background music in the tutorial level, the soundtrack was generally quite good.
This lead to rampant experimentation on how far I could go and the extent to which I could combine multiple swings without ever stopping.
This game’s strength is in its writing – the snappy dialogue and quirky characters will make you forget its flaws.
Alwa’s Awakening is classic gaming for the modern gamer and an incredibly enjoyable experience.
Aside from the stunning, fully animated cut scenes, the visuals feel right out of the PS3 era, if not earlier.
All in all, there is very little replay value here.
Even the paths to show your progress for each patient are cool, consisting of what looks like tree branches or a neurological network.
The longer you play though, the lack of depth starts to show and things get repetitive.
Resident Evil 7 biohazard isn’t without its flaws, but it’s absolutely the sequel that Capcom had to make in order to make the series relevant again.
