12 Is Better Than 6's The Apostles campaign is a ton of fun for those who want to jump back in or even for fans of games like Hotline Miami who are looking for a different kind of top-down shooter that has some whacky characters.

80 / 100 - The End Is Nigh
Dec 22, 2017

There's a lot to like in The End is Nigh, just try not to throw the Switch around when the game gets super tough. Someone could get hurt.

84 / 100 - Fallout 4 VR
Dec 22, 2017

_________________________ “Being physically able to stare down the sights of your gun or to just straight up swing your controller in order to pistol whip the enemies is definitely satisfying.

The game's concept is brilliant, but unfortunately Hello Neighbor's execution does not rise to the occasion and the game falls flat.

Dec 20, 2017

Mirrim's puzzles stumped me, left me scratching my head, and then made me feel like an idiot when I figured them out.

The only major disappointment with this add-on is the lack of anything new aside from the enemies and environment.

68 / 100 - Dimension Drive
Dec 19, 2017

Dimension Drive does offer up some compelling ideas to vertical shmups, but the focus seems to be too much on those aspects.

What did bring me pause was a simple question: "Who's talking right now?".

88 / 100 - Okami HD
Dec 17, 2017

Traditional polygons and surface textures grow muddy and bland with every passing year, while Okami will shine bright for decades to come.

Floor Kids is a laid back and fun music rhythm game that is hiding a deep and competitive layer that is hard to put down

It's not that I didn't like playing Aces overall, I'm just frustrated because I can see a great game underneath the clutter of skill lines and odd design choices.

considering Rufus isn't much of a likable character, it gets annoying to listen to him.

Sky Force Reloaded starts the player all souped up, and then strips everything away going into the meat of the game.

The Champion's Ballad DLC is a splendid continuation of one of 2017's finest titles. Though it features minor disappointments, the overall experience is incredibly enjoyable.
