Team Sonic Racing refines and advances the genre in creative ways that make it a must play for both kart racing and Sonic fans alike, which is easy to do thanks to its budget price.

88 Heroes is a game that puts referential humor over bland platforming and little else.

Fallback will have you going back for more as you make your way through its tough but rewarding gauntlet.

A high price point and some subjective duds make Namco Museum a stretch in terms of outright value, but the influence these games had on the industry makes them worth at least a cursory glance in the rearview mirror.

Star Wars Battlefront fails to match the ambitions of its visuals with equally as impressive gunplay, leaving it in the awkward position of looking amazing while also being rather boring.

Need For Speed Heat is a fun racing game that is still held back by a weak, multiplayer, story, and lack of event variety.

Capes is a good enough game, but lacks the necessary distinction to go up, up and away.

Matterfall is a fluid, frenetic, explosively colourful arcade shooter sure to satisfy both casual players and high-score chasers.

While occasionally caving under the weight of its ambition, Greedfall delivers a world worth exploring inhabited by characters and stories just as memorable.

Chasm tries something new with its procedurally generated map but it failure to create interesting maps results in a lackluster experience.

Yo-Kai Watch 2 is a fantastic sequel to a fantastic game.

Salt and Sacrifice is bloody, brutal, and beyond enjoyable.

Switch Sports is a solid multiplayer game that is fun to play, even if there is a limited number of sports and game modes to engage with.

Snake Pass is a colourful snake 'em-up platformer with hard to learn controls, but is original enough to be worth more than a passing glance.

Even having never played these specific games before, Grandia HD Collection ended up giving me a sense of nostalgia. Grandia may be one of the best examples of what a quality JRPG was during its era and still holds up to this day as a title which fans of the genre should experience. Grandia II might not stand the test of time as well as its predecessor does, but it is still worth checking out for its continued use of a nearly perfect battle system, especially for any fans of the first game.

Toys for Bob comes up with one of their most ambitious plays yet, the ability to create Skylanders from scratch.

Let It Die is an ambitious game that threatens to charm players, but ultimately falls short due to unpolished gameplay, repetitious level design, and some really awful freemium schemes.

State of Decay is still, without a doubt, one of the better zombie games available today. Despite not having all the polish and AAA bells and whistles of a big budget title, it has an original concept, a lot of depth, and a genuine tension evoked by its “no one is ever safe,” atmosphere.

Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning is not terribly challenging or filled with complex plot, but offers you a straightforward, lengthy, and empowering journey to save the world from evil.

It’s a product that just makes me tired. Tired of seeing the games from three years ago on store shelves as if they’re new things. Tired of the amount of effort being pulled from making new games and being poured into re-releasing whatever beloved game publishers think they can squeeze a few more dollars out of. Tired, most of all, that it doesn’t seem like this trend is ending or even slowing down.

Alone With You might not innovate in the gameplay department, but more than makes up for it with a narrative that’ll leave you torn, contemplative, and heartbroken.

Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin is an enjoyable experiment in melding Soulslike conventions onto a Final Fantasy skeleton. However it undercuts itself by not daring for more complexity, setting up great narrative and gameplay turns that never come to pass.

Directive 8020 feels like Supermassive Games has finally rejuvenated after the disappointing The Devil In Me. With this being the start of season two, this is a great showing, and I can’t wait to see what horrors they bring us next

Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary World Tour isn’t the best version of this seminal game, but it’s still a really good one, and offers a lot of bonus content that’ll please longtime fans.

I have yet to find another free-to-play game that is so fair to the player not spending any money on it.

Before We Leave is a great, relaxed simulation, but feels like it may be missing a few things.

Bendy and the Dark Revival drowns in its own basic black and white design for survival horror, but manages to amaze players with a more confident sequel to a unique nightmarish satire on all things Disney.

Yurukill: The Calumnation Games has a decent storyline, and is a solid time, but for the price point, there are far better options.
