Gal Metal is a game where you’ll probably find yourself playing through the story just to get to music scenes where your goal is to provide a steady, unceasing beat. Not exactly the most thrilling stuff. Different than most other rhythm games, sure — and if you love rhythm games for the rhythms themselves, there might be something interesting here for you.

Feels like a title that launched with the PS2, not a second-generation title.

The technology is behind the curve, the control is too sensitive and cumbersome, but the variation in gameplay saves the title from the ever-increasing abyss of forgetful games based on movies.

If you want a game that is a pale imitation of a "good" platformer, than give Pinobee a try.

WRC 8 is an ugly game with lousy controls, and there’s not much you can say in its favour. Unless you like turning kamikaze driving into an art form, of course — but even then, putting up with a bad racing game just to mess with its internal logic seems like a bridge too far.

Kudos to Gorilla Games for their effort with Hannah Montana Music Jam, but in the end the product is just bogged down by the adventure mode and a significant amount of mini-games.

If you enjoyed the movie, I'd say the game is worth checking out, but beware that it can really aggravate you at certain points. I'm not sure I'd suggest buying it right off the bat; I would definitely go with a rental first.

At the end of the day you get what’s on the box and that’s 8 games for 20 bucks. They do play well and while not all are enjoyable that falls on the selection of the games themselves. For me there are a few treasures in here and a couple games I’m glad to experience but if you’re not a fan of shmups or lesser known arcade games from early Konami then it’s not a must-have.

If you’re not super into mobile gaming but you want to recreate the experience on your Switch, then it might be kind of worth checking this game out, but it’s not going to be the end of the world if you miss out on it, either.

If this is a genre you like or have been tempted to try out, N3 is a fantastic addition.

I’d say pretty much the same thing about the game now that it’s on the Switch as I did back when it came out on PS4: if you’re into slightly janky detective games, you’re going to love The Sinking City (and as someone who does love those games, I mean that with all the affection in the world).

What makes this style of Yu-Gi-Oh so compelling is the fact that you finally have some story and purpose that best follows the popular anime TV series.

Game play can be summed up in one word…repetitive.

If you’re a fan of Neopets, you’ll probably end up wanting to check this out because, well, you’re a fan. However, for the majority of the gaming populace, avoid this game like the plague. There’s no fun to be had here.

Overall, I’m genuinely impressed by Into the Stars. It’s a fun game that’s easy to control and learn, but provides enough depth that strategy fans will likely get a kick out of this, along with more casual players.

I have no doubt that, in the right circumstances, it could be a lot of fun to play. Those right circumstances, however, are clearly on a PC. The Switch version of this game was thrown together with no attention or care as to whether things work, and unless you’re well-acquainted with the game going in, you’re not going to get very much out of it.

The fact of the matter is there are many other FPS on the Xbox that have a better story, better multiplayer play, and more innovation that will make you feel like you just made a smart 50 dollar purchase.

Improved visuals, spruced up game play, and in-depth online play that will keep any fan of the collegiate games very happy indeed.

A collage of two genres that collide harder than the crashes you experience in the game. Why? For one simple reason, you don’t take time trial speed races and toss in Tony Hawk style tricks in to slow you down. Bad choice boys, oh what a bad choice indeed.

An upgraded, yet still very lacking, installment in the air combat series that continues to be outclassed by Namco’s efforts.

Of course, the same — that Atomic Ninjas is a lot of fun when everything works the way it's supposed to — could be said for pretty much any game ever, which means that this is hardly the most glowing recommendation imaginable. But, really, that's the point: Atomic Ninjas is fun, but not the sort of game that deserves an unqualified rave.

For better and for worse (and I honestly don’t know where I fall on it, apart from being creeped out by the art), Infini is a…unique puzzle game. If you like weird, you’ll like it.

Overall, it's a far more enjoyable experience than you'll find in most of the Dynasty Warriors series, and it's nice to see some competition for the a game type that doesn't get a lot of love in the Western side of the world.

Fans of the series will no doubt enjoy the added bit of mythology that fills in some of the gaps between Episodes III and IV, and even general action fans should get a bit of enjoyment out of Lethal Alliance.

The story lacks depth, the same way the cartoon did, and when you have such a run-of-the-mill platform game you really need an engaging story.

For the few hours it will keep you busy, Smash Cars is a fun and slightly different arcade-style RC racer. Downloadable games don't necessarily have to be short and simple, and for the price, Smash Cars is over a little too quickly.

Really, Daydream: Forgotten Sorrow’s lack of originality is just a minor complaint compared to the fact that it doesn’t achieve what it sets out to do from a gameplay perspective. You can’t be a worthwhile puzzle-platformer when the platforming sections feature controls and physics and a field of depth that are this finicky.

While enjoyable and intriguing, it wasn’t the most original game. Even though I appreciate what it takes inspiration from, it relies too heavily on the inspiration. Having said that, that may have lulled me into a false sense of security, thinking I knew what to expect from the moment I started. I had to clear my mind of preconceived notions that I would know what would happen and live in the moment. That’s what I liked about You Will Die Here Tonight. I had to work at it. It was challenging. I was transported back to the ’90s without having a strategy guide or GameFAQ to aid me. I had to rely solely on my guile, and completing the game was that much more of an accomplishment!
