    Two Worlds II: Pirates of the Flying Fortress
    I wish it had a little more going for it when it came to the whole use of Pirates, but as a new adventure in the Two Worlds II universe, there's plenty to like about it. If you've been looking for an excuse to jump back into the game, I can't think of a better reason than picking up this expansion.

    Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter
    But to start an RPG from the beginning just to save your experience is overly tedious. And starting from a save points at a loss of your stats is equally lame.

    Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move
    It’s certainly different from what we’ve come to expect out of Mario vs. Donkey Kong, but if you’re interested in a Nintendo themed puzzle game with some actual challenge, look no further than Minis on the Move.

    Stealth Inc: A Clone in the Dark
    Instead, I was thinking, "This game is so awesome." That, or silently cursing Curve Studios for making a game that's equal parts insanely addictive and fiendishly difficult. That's a dangerous combination if you ever want to put a game down — though why you'd ever want to put Stealth Inc. down, I don't know.

    Bust-A-Move Live!
    All together, it's a simple, fun entry into the series, and while the only real interesting feature comes from the addition of online play, it's still worth picking up.

    Bejeweled 3
    The simple fact is that games like Bejeweled are available in far more convenient places than the Xbox.

    Tiger Woods PGA Tour 07
    New game modes pack Tiger 07 with great depth.

    Silent Hill: Origins
    Silent Hill Origins may do a few things that fans may love or hate, but what it does well is allow you to play the events that lead up to the first game and solve some of the mysteries and questions.

    Capcom Beat 'Em Up Bundle
    It’s a solid collection of classic games that are pretty well represented here.

    Culdcept
    It’s a fun title that boils down to good old-fashioned board game fun that just happens to be on a DVD.

    Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga
    I love the action, the character development, and the mature themes that help separate it from the pack. At the same, the battle system is different yet comfortable in its turn-based approach.

    Capcom Classics Collection
    This is as good as a nostalgia collection gets.

    Need for Speed: Porsche Unleashed
    A departure from the revival of the series, "NFS: High Stakes," but in no way is it a disappointment.

    Blitz: The League
    The addition of the new play styles, attitude, and story mode only enhance this great title. This is easily the best of the Blitz titles, and Midway has given fans a truly fun and entertaining football game that is not hindered by rules and penalties.

    Adventures of Pip
    As it is, it’s a competent action-platform game that is enjoyable to play, but won’t ever reach the status of a triple-A must-play experience.

    Psychedelica of the Ashen Hawk
    Psychedelica of the Ashen Hawk succeeds as a visual novel generally and an otome specifically because it ignores its genre conventions in favour of telling a compelling story, with largely decent characters and enough content to keep you interested all the way to the end. I’m not sure what Aksys’ goal with the Summer of Mystery was, but if it was to showcase just how impressive and engaging the genre can be, I’d say it succeeded beyond any shadow of a doubt.

    Journey to the Savage Planet
    Basically, I’m just happy that Journey to the Savage Planet on the Switch finally has it living up to the potential the game showed back when it was first teased. It’s kind of ironic it had to be visually downgraded to achieve that, but if I have to sacrifice a bit of performance to get a lot more fun out of a game, that’s a trade-off I’ll take every time.

    Haven
    Haven is the rare game that excels at making its characters seem believable and human, especially when it gives them nothing more to do than just being themselves. The end result may feel a little familiar for anyone who’s lived through the past year, but that doesn’t make the game any less worthwhile.

    Once Upon a Jester
    Once Upon A Jester isn’t like too many other games out there, but if you’re willing to give it a chance, you’ll find that it does what it sets out to do incredibly well.

    Killer Frequency
    In the end, the fact the story and the characters are so well done win out over any quibbles I may have with details. Killer Frequency is an excellent game that takes a neat approach to both horror films and walking simulators, and it’s well worth checking out if you’re a fan of either. (But seriously, how did these people all have cell phones?)

    Patapon 1 + 2 Replay
    Patapon 1 + 2 Replay may be throwbacks to another time, but their gameplay is pretty timeless, and whether you played them the first time around or not, it’s a good time to go back (or go for the first time) and lose yourself in the rhythm.

    The Wonderful 101
    This is the very definition of a killer-app in regards to the Wii U library, and deserves every ounce of support the gaming community can muster up.

    Kingdom Under Fire: Heroes
    The delicate mix of three genres has never been pulled off as well as this before.

    WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2009
    I definitely enjoyed this year's version of the Smackdown vs. Raw series, but I still think that it's time for a serious change of pace.

    Mario Golf: World Tour
    Not short on content, delivering a robust Mario Golf experience, and implementing the Mii character in the Castle Club mode lay down the groundwork for what could be the most complete Mario Golf experience so far. Whether or not that's your cup of 'tee' is up to you, but I've found a decent bit of distraction from my normal Hot Shots hold.

    Street Fighter Anniversary Collection
    The gameplay is dead on in "Third Impact." It’s one of the most well handling fighting games produced, with every move coming across to the screen at the same split second rate as player input it into the control.

    Rock Band 4
    The track list is lackluster and I could’ve gone for some more content in the box, but outside of these concerns, Rock Band 4 is a good return to the rhythmic music genre. I recommend it for anyone with an existing library of songs and people just looking to rock out.

    Karaoke Revolution Presents: American Idol
    No matter what your ability is, there is fun to be had by all and adding the popular show tie in only makes for more enjoyable experience than before.

    Crash Commando
    It's quickly shaping up to be one of my favorite games available on PSN at the moment. It's a great multiplayer title, with a solid online community already established, and some simple, but entirely addictive gameplay behind it.

    Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen
    In a nutshell the quality of a port we got with Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen on the Switch is very much what fans could hope for. The whole game is here and plays great and for $30 is a steal even today because of the quality hours of content here. For those looking to revisit the game they will be happy with Capcom’s effort and those looking for a world to rival the playtime of their biggest Switch selection will find a very fun and rewarding gem they can dig into.
