The history of the Barrow Hill games eerily parallel that of the Blair Witch Project film series.
Mantis Burn Racing excels in being a casual and accessible racer for newcomers with excellent and responsive controls while offering a robust and challenging career mode for the hardcore.
It didn’t take long for the muscle memory to return, however, nor did I have trouble finding a lot of the secret areas I’d so often frequented during the mid-nineties.
The best way to play Shadow Warrior 2 is also the most exciting and rewarding, as hanging back and shooting from afar is not nearly as effective combing your firepower with blades, and magic.
Although the missions are repetitive, the gameplay itself is amazingly fun.
Simple controls and mechanics are your best bet for solid gameplay, and Thoth delivers these on a silver platter.
clearly the developers were influenced by Bioshock: Infinite, just don't expect a game even remotely close in quality
Skylanders Imaginators is a dream for gamers who love to customize, platform, and just blow stuff up.
If you’re willing to accept the fact that Color Splash is more of an adventure platformer, and less of an RPG, then you’ll be in for an absolute treat of a game.
If you’re a stealth fan, I strongly recommend this one. Even if you’re just a casual gamer, there’s lots of goodness to be found in Aragami. Stylish and challenging, Aragami certainly brings enough to the table to win over gamers of all kinds.
What's worse is that the problems are also of a technical nature.
It feels like Klang tried to do too much at once, but with a bit more time spent towards pacing, the game would have progressed a lot smoother, making this Rave Warrior’s journey a real home run. If you’re looking for a game that has a fair bit of replay value, and is flush with quality gameplay and music, then you would be very pleased with what Klang has to offer.
It was well worth the wait.
Many years later I find myself reviewing Crazy Machine 3, a game that strikes hard at my nostalgia chord.
As a PC port with great 2D art style graphics and a unique storyline full of dark moments, Dead Synchronicity has a lot of potential to be a great game on the PS4.
Overall, the ingenious method XCOM 2 deploys is keeping so much of the same, but adding just enough new features and slight changes to make it absolutely phenomenal.
One of Payday 2’s strengths has always been the variety of heists offered.
Each freelancer also has unlockable mods for their skills that you can configure before each round.
Square Enix has taken its well established roots in the Dragon Quest realm and blended it with the likes of Minecraft or Terraria to create something both new and familiar.
Gears 4 is smoother all around than past games while retaining that heavy weight to characters.
