    If you ever wanted to live the "Dawn of the Dead" experience, here’s your chance.

    The game's complicated control scheme takes a little getting used to, and adjusting the arc of the ballista's shots can be frustrating at times. The game likes to turn small stick movements into large changes in trajectory, which is a problem when you need to precisely place your shots to bring down a retaining wall or an enemy knight. I didn't have this issue when playing the original game, so I don't know how or why it made its way into the VR version. Overall, I enjoy the game's presentation, the cool 3D feel to its playing field, and its quirky mash-up of genres, but I have to dock the VR version points for its finicky controls.

    A unique game that is definitely worth a look by anyone looking for a gaming change of pace. Its long term appeal is questionable, though.

    It looks great, but it is in need of more substance behind the style.

    Quake Wars is a cut above the average online shooter, but it can't quite match up to the top tier games or its PC cousin.

    Not quite endless, but some gamers will have fun with it while it lasts.

    Battleborn can deliver some enjoyable moments, but the lack of modes and maps, long match times, and excruciatingly slow progression combine to make the game feel like a grind more often than not.

    Dungeon Siege II fans will enjoy the chance to extend their time in the game’s world.

    Project Spark makes it fun to create games, but those games are not that much fun to play.

    For a game, it's more eye-opening than it is entertaining.

    The Political Machine 2008 is best suited to those in the board game crowd with a decided interest in politics.

    Karma: The Dark World is a trippy ride through the mind of others and one that is very surreal.

    RemiLore is a cute hack-and-slash for kids and adults alike. Its procedurally generated dungeons and enemies serve as a good grind. And with 213 weapons and several costumes to unlock, the game made me embrace my inner collector spirit. While its weak story and overall shallowness cannot be overlooked, those looking to mess around with the gameplay modifiers, couch co-op mode, and vast array of weapons will be satisfied.

    Love Dragon Ball Z and you’ll like the game.

    Overall, I’d say that this is a good video game adaptation of a board game – the AI is competent enough to be challenging to average player, but not so strong as to be frustrating, and the graphics put the original cardboard and plastic game to shame visually. I wish there was more information on the rules and even gameplay tips, though, as well as more gameplay customization options. CATAN: Console Edition won’t replace sitting around a board with friends, but it’s a good enough option if you want to learn the game or just take a board game break when you can’t round-up your friends for a game night.

    The final sequence to the game is quite interesting, but so very cryptic with the way it all ends up. If the next episode(s) of the game can fill us in more on what is going on and add more depth to the characters, this game series could have a good amount of potential, but as a standalone game, Home Sweet Home feels too incomplete to rank high among many other indie horror titles.

    Mortal Kombat Arcade Kollection doesn't score any flawless victories since it gets hit many times along the way with its flaws.

    Combine the impatience of others and the almost endless random item grind and I do not see a casual audience getting swept away in the Warhammer hype by this game. Even Warhammer fans should make note that just because you may know the lore of the series it won't grant you a wonderful team experience ... but it may grant you some street cred to get you by.

    Fishing Master is more akin to Pokemon than it is to a simulation of fishing, and will probably appeal the most to the "gotta catch them all" crowd.

    For a movie licensed game, Kung Fu Panda isn't that bad at all. The Wii version has some controller and graphical issues but it still doesn't take away from the fun of the game that much.

    This collection won't make everyone happy, but for the people it tantalizes the wait for next year's new movie will be a little more bearable.

    An ambitious game that falls a bit short on execution, Warrior Kings is not suited to casual gamers but RTS veterans may find it intriguing.

    The DLC has a few hidden items such as monoliths and documents. Players will be given a new outfit, a new skill, and a new gun for completing the side mission. The DLC has its own set of trophies/achievements to earn. The Forge is also unlocked as a score and time attack challenge tomb on the main menu. Overall, The Forge DLC adds some interesting story for Abby's character and a fun new challenge tomb for a small fee.

    Rock of Ages is a novel idea and one that has some potential, but it feels like the balance between offense can defense in the game just isn't quite right.

    Amusement Park's environment is more fun than the original one in Pain, but it should be giving you more for your money.

    This disappointment will be amplified for many gamers by the fact that the game retails for the same price as Guitar Hero II. You get less than half the tracks, fewer characters, no costume changes, and fewer arenas for the same price.

    Star Trek DAC isn't great, but it isn't awful. It's fun, but only for a while.

    In the end, The Last Resort feels less like a continuation of the series, and more like a time-waster: it's as if the developers wanted an episode to get a feel for the characters and style of the game, before diving back into the kind of game that Fright of the Bumblebees was.

    The game is best enjoyed in the same manner as it delivers its action – in short doses. As a budget title it’s not bad as a mindless alien-blasting diversion or a walk down memory lane for older gamers who grew up in the top-down view era. If you’re looking for deep immersive gameplay you won’t find it here, but it fits the bill when you’re in the mood for some quick and easy action.
