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.

Operation Abyss still isn't going to appeal to people who have zero interest in ever playing a DRPG. But it's enough of an improvement over its predecessor that I'd you have even a slight interest in the genre, you'll find yourself enjoying it.

Alien Shooter still probably isn't worth picking up, but if the past is any guide, it may not be too long until it's followed by a game that is.

All together, especially if you already know you enjoy Puzzle & Dragons, I think this is a package worth checking out.

Outside of the two minor caveats, Spy Chameleon is easy to pick up and play and is great for the casual Xbox One gamer, or someone who has ten or fifteen minutes to kill at a time.

If you can do these picture logic puzzles in your sleep, then nothing here should be too far out of your comfort zone. For anyone else, however, I feel like the barrier of entry is just a little too high and the payoff a little too low to make Sketchcross worth the investment.

Depending on your ideological persuasion, you might take a very dim view of Breach & Clear's politics, but honestly, its biggest, most unforgivable transgression is that it's simply not a very interesting game.

We haven’t had a lot of opportunities to cheer the Forrester gang on, but this episode certainly gives you a number of moments to do just that.

Color Guardians may not be one of the greatest games you'll ever play, but it's still clearly above average — and all things considered, that makes it a pretty welcome addition to the Vita's library.

To sum it all up, Nintendo has created a very fun and fresh take on the team based shooter genre, all while making it accessible to just about anyone.

I can see enjoying it in small doses — but considering how small a dose the entire game is, you could be forgiven for thinking your time and money might be better spent on a longer-lasting, more immersive experience.

Running at about six hours, this game is a lot of fun with a decent story and some great action packed fights. If you haven't played either, I would recommend playing this first, then picking up last years release.

Great gameplay that's a little too demanding, outstanding visuals that are a little too distracting, thumping dance music that's a little too catchy: everywhere you look in this game, it's just a constant reminder that you can, in fact, have too much of a good thing.

If you've ever played solitaire in your life, you'll be able to pick Strike Solitare up incredibly quickly.

Rather, everything does, and for that, Bloober deserves congratulations — more in the form of a subtle nod than a hearty pat on the back, mind you, but still: this is infinitely better than Basement Crawl ever was, and even if it's still not a must-own for your PS4, you won't find yourself wishing that Brawl had never even been created.

Overall, this is definitely a welcome addition to the PS4 library. Street Fighter V is still a ways off from release, so if you need some excellent Street Fighter action on your PS4 right now, then I can highly recommend downloading this.

The vivid cast of crazy characters, entertaining voice acting, and the refreshing puzzle components utilizing the Quarks make SC a solid port of the Steam release.

Still, despite some evident flaws, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is a game you should be playing. It’s one of the few open-world RPG’s that manages to excel at not only giving you an expansive world to explore, but at also giving you plenty to do within that world.

As far as I'm concerned, however, no matter how interesting the concept may be, the fact the gameplay doesn't measure up makes Project Root a non-starter. Or, to be more specific, the fact that the developers didn't choose to include any checkpoints at all in a game that involves massive levels and constant death makes Project Root a non-starter for me.

All in all, I still feel like this is a collection that’s worth checking out, provided you haven’t already blitzed through both games on PS3 or PS Vita. The upgrades are nice, but not so big as to warrant another purchase a year later.

In the end, Toren is a decent indie title if you are looking for something quick to play.

Like so many other "problematic" games before it — both in the genre and beyond it — Hyperdimension Neptunia U shows that it's possible to turn a blind eye to certain issues when everything else is just so much fun.

That said, if you're the type who can look at a 3D puzzle and figure out which end goes where, this game should be right up your alley. It's challenging, but only in the right ways — by which I mean you're not going to spend your time here fighting with counterintuitive controls or wondering what you're supposed to do next.

A big, dumb, gloriously fun joke, and one that's worth checking out when you're just in the mood to see stuff get blown up by one insane goat.

What really brings everything together, though, is the game's exceptionally good writing. Where most other retro games rely on references in place of actual humour, Shovel Knight is full of jokes that are actually funny and a plot that's actually engaging.

Overall, Star Wars Rebels is easily one of my favorite Zen Pinball tables to date. It’s accessible for just about anyone, it showcases its theme quite well, and it’s really hard to stop playing.

On the positive side, I did like the idea of a two-ball multiball prelude to open the table up with, where you help Iron Man construct the Ultron A.I. It’s also somewhat neat to see it built as an optional thing, even though I’m not sure I fully understand why you would want to skip it. Also, if you manage to get the four-ball multiball for the final event, it’s so chaotic that you can’t help but smile at the mess, even if getting to this point is more frustrating and boring than it’s worth.

But still: it's hard. Like, unreasonably hard. Obviously, for some people that's appealing, and for those people Element4L might be worth checking out. If you don't want a relentlessly punishing platformer, though, then you'd best avoid this one.
