Overall this game is perfect for pick up and put down play.

There’s just something exhilarating about driving a tank, dodging the artillery shells pounding the ground around you, while light tanks scout hostiles, medium and heavy tanks duel it out in the middle of the map, tank destroyers picking off targets from afar, and you find yourself backed into a corner, surrounded and outnumbered, your tracks damaged, and your only allies being your tank’s smoking cannon and high explosive rounds.

In the end though, I put more time into each of the Age of Wonders III expansion packs than I put into Sorcerer King, because they were just better games.

While there are elements in Icy that feel interesting and well done, there are too many faults in execution to warrant a play through unless you’re hungering for a wasteland-trekking narrative.

Capcom may not be wholly interested in greenlighting a modern interpretation of the series, but the collection is a great opportunity to experience video game history – if you haven’t already.

Madden has never played better. The game is smooth, strategic, and a lot of fun. If you slept on last years’ game or are just ready for some football, Madden NFL 16 is another great entry into the series.

From a block of tofu to squid kids, Nintendo put their best foot forward in developing their new franchise.

Hardcore horror fans will appreciate it, as presumably they’re used to tolerating subpar gameplay and sub-subpar production values, but casual players would be better off sticking with the more venerable titles it draws influence from.

RymdResa eventually becomes a test of patience but its tone and the drama of Man’s desperate search for a new home is interesting and thought provoking.

Your tolerance for weighed down controls and unpredictability determines what you’ll get out of Abyss Odyssey.

The time spent in Hyperion alone makes this entry worth playing. The characters are better (depending on your dialog choices, of course), the jokes are funny, and it features the longest and most epic fake gunfight in the history of video games.

While it may not be the best platformer of our time, it’s a decent enough romp for the $15 price tag.

Brawl is far from perfect, with an online multiplayer that appears to be devoid of other players and a single player campaign that halts your progress with an insane difficulty spike. Despite these shortcomings it is a solid party game if you have a friend or three that wants to play, and considering how rare it is in this day and age to find a game that supports this kind of multiplayer, I am impressed.

Super Mega Baseball: Extra Innings is simply a fun game.

Without spoiling anything, it is hard to explain how great From the Ashes truly is. The Detail is heating up and episode 2 provides it with the spark and breath it needs to last three additional episodes.

OlliOlli 2 is exactly what you want from a sequel: refinement, addition, and an evolution of the game before it that is just a better game.

The PS4 version of The Vanishing of Ethan Carter is an amazing port of one of last year’s best adventure games. The strong narrative, complex puzzles, and amazing graphically prowess makes this mystery one worth solving.

And that’s Fallout Shelter‘s big problem: the graphics are great, the coding is great, and the music is great. But working as a Vault-Tec Overseer feels too much like being stuck in middle management: it just gets tediously repetitive after a while.

Initially, The Swapper only managed to gain my curiosity, but as I progressed further through the game, I began to realize I was playing something special.

If you are a fan of squad based strategy games or old heist movies, then you should definitely check out The Masterplan.

I can almost understand what Wales Interactive wanted to do and it might have turned out better if the game had more time to cook. As it exists now, there are much, much better ways to spend $7.

0RBITALIS succeeds at being much more accessible and artistic than most games where scientific accuracy is a core aspect of the gameplay. Unfortunately, complexity and artistic ability usually aren’t those games’ weaknesses; the unforgiving and uncooperative nature of reality is.

“Dark Room” delivers the same level of high emotional drama as previous episodes and raises the stakes for what is expected to be a busy finale.

Overall, Where the Dead Lie, is a good introduction to what could possibly be an amazing experience.

There are things to like in Schrodinger’s Cat. The gameplay shows signs of brilliance, but the writing and poor level design ultimately hold it back.

With such a crowded market for 3-match shooters such as this, Sparkle Unleashed doesn’t do much to stand out, but instead gives us a fun, familiar game, albeit a forgettable one.

If the combat was more fun and parts of it didn’t feel so cheap, this series could have some legs, but for the third entry in the franchise, it still feels like it has a long way to go.

The exploration is awesome. The upgrade system is awesome. The game was just awesome. Its available on damn-near every platform and if you haven’t played it yet you definitely should.
