    If you want anything more than a few nice-looking puzzles, you won’t really find that in Agent A. It’s a fine little puzzle game that you can fly through in five hours or so, but if you expect anything more than that you’ll be disappointed.

    This version isn’t revolutionary enough that it will recruit fans who didn’t like it the first few times, but fans of the series will eat this up and gladly shell out the bucks for what Konami has to offer in this go round.

    Isn’t quite as fresh as the original was a year ago, but Z-Axis has really stepped up for the PS2 sequel in all areas, and we eagerly anticipate what they’ll have ready for the third installment.

    Retro Bowl is generally worth it, if you’re a Switch-owning football fan who wants to play their favourite game on Nintendo’s system. It may not be perfect, but it’s miles better than anything else you can play.

    A glorious sendoff for the venerable series, and an absolute must-own for any serious fan. While it ultimately fails to match up the strongest entries in the series – the original "R-Type" and the fantastic "R-Type Delta" – in terms of stage design and challenge, it compensates with the vast wealth of playable craft and subtle nods to its own spectacular lineage.

    Doki Doki Ragnarok is a game that’s incredibly difficult to describe without sounding like you’re three days out from the last time you slept, but I promise you that you won’t regret playing it. It’s short (about 5 hours for me to play through it) with limited replayability outside of testing the differences between passing or failing in a “dating” scenario, but it’s just such a good, goofy time.

    All in all, I enjoyed my time spent with Cathedral, but with the sheer glut of indie developed Metroidvania’s on the market, including some fairly big-budget ones at this point, it is a little hard to recommend Cathedral over other like-minded titles. It’s a solid one of those games, but solid isn’t necessarily enough to propel it to the top of the must-play pile. If you’ve got a little time on your hands, and you haven’t already given it a shot on Switch or PC, then I think it’s worth a look. But if you have yet to play any number of critically acclaimed Metroidvania titles on the market, then I’d be a little hard pressed to suggest Cathedral over those games.

    The multiplayer aspect gives it a lot of longevity, which is supplemented with New Game+ features as well. Mission variety is decent and enemies are well varied within their types, although the most addictive part of the game's missions will be the underlying RPG elements that allow further customization and adjustments throughout the length of the title.

    If there is anything to complain about in Burnout, it has to be the audio.

    A really solid RPG title for the PS2, and while it doesn’t manage to fill in the top slot for RPG’s on the system, it definitely ranks up there in the top 4 or 5.

    I think, in the end, it all comes down to how you look at it. If you look at Windosill and just see a game where you tap the screen a few times, move a train across the bottom, and finish it all in well under half an hour, it’s definitely not something I’d recommend. But if you’re looking for something that feels almost as much like a toy and/or a piece of art as it does a video game, Windosill might just deliver on that.

    Even if you're a bit burnt out on zombie related games at this point, at least BZB doesn't take itself all that seriously, and it's something that can be played and enjoyed in short bursts, which is exactly what I like to see out of these digital titles.

    I won’t be giving it a free pass but all the important things in the game such as its charm and gameplay made the jump to Switch just fine and that’s really what counts. If you’re okay with some jank and want a very unique game then look no further than Deadly Premonition Origins!

    It’s a cozy game that realizes a sickly sweet veneer isn’t enough to draw people in, you also need to provide solid gameplay – and that’s something this game delivers. You’ll have to have a high tolerance for cutesiness, to be sure, but in the end, it’s worth it.

    Another one of the game's strengths lies in its presentation. Everything looks good! And not just for an XBLA title, but by any standard.

    It’s demanding, but the game always makes it very clear what it expects from you. It hasn’t won me over to survival horror, but it’s a lot more accessible than most games in the genre – which, from me, counts as a glowing recommendation.

    So there you have it: a sequel 25 years in the making that was crowd funded and released digitally for $15. Well played, Black Forest (no pun intended).

    It’s neat to see the franchise trying something new, even if it doesn’t totally succeed. More importantly, none of the new stuff takes away from what makes Warriors games fun in the first place: you still get to single-handedly mow down enemy army after enemy army. No matter what else may have changed, that core fact remains the same in Dynasty Warriors 9 — and as long as that’s true, that’s really all that matters.

    Here, there's only one question to be asked: is Furmins a good game? And even if the answer isn't as resounding as it is for some other casual PS Vita games, the answer is still a pretty clear "yes".

    If you want a retro-inspired game that actually looks, feels, and plays like something from a few decades ago — and that is pretty enjoyable while it lasts as a bonus — you could do a lot worse than picking this one up.

    It's not exactly a killer online app, but it's free, it's easily to play, it's fun, and it runs pretty much flawlessly.

    In the end you can't go wrong if you are a fan of the game. Just don't expect to be wowed by any aspect except the online and offline dynasty modes as they have shown the most attention to features in the game. The rest is just window dressing.

    Banishers is definitely better than Don’t Nod’s previous action efforts, and if they decide to revisit this world again, they’ll be starting from a very solid base.

    While not as intriguing or long-lasting as something like Tokyo Jungle, I think PS3 players will still find themselves enraptured by the unique design of Rain's water-soaked world.

    Your enjoyment of The Mooseman will come down to how much you enjoy edutainment. It’s definitely not for everyone, and if you don’t feel like reading every new page, then what you’re left with is a short, uneventful adventure game. If, however, that doesn’t phase you, then there might just be enough here to make The Mooseman worth your while.

    To be clear, Planet RIX-13 isn’t going to blow your mind, and it’s not going to occupy much more than an hour of your time. But for that short time, and within its limited scope, it provides decent entertainment, and that makes it worth checking out at its relatively cheap price.

    Basically, don't pick up Wolfenstein for the multiplayer, especially if you're hoping for some type of Return to Castle Wolfenstein experience out of it. It's fun, and worth checking out, but hardly competitive or well polished. Instead, you'll be buying this game primarily for the single player experience, which isn't without it's own set of faults, but still manages to be fun despite that.

    It’s one of those quiet titles that gets released but rarely advertised, but trust me, it’s probably the only good thing that will come out of the new movie.

    Overall, if you are aching for a new platformer on your GBA, or just love the Ty series in general, then you will not want to miss out on his latest adventure.
