    Offer[s] its genuinely-hilarious story for a whole new generation of gamers. While it isn’t the cleanest port ever, it’s a welcome addition to any library — especially at the $14.99 price point.

    Grey Goo wildly exceeds all expectations for presentation and gameplay. While there are a few issues with cheating and infinite units in single player, the multiplayer is rock solid.

    It’s clear that Gat out of Hell is purely fan service. If you liked the lunacy of Saints Row IV, you’ll find more of it here. While it isn’t bringing a great deal of new to the table, that doesn’t prevent it from being a fun ride while it lasts.

    A very high quality free-to-play game, but free-to-play all the same.

    The definitive way to experience the forefather of the survival horror genre. There may be some elements that are frustratingly outdated but the game is still terrifying and plenty of fun to play.

    Funk of the Titans is a game with its heart in the right place, but repetitively boring gameplay and QTE’s keep the charm from winning out in the end.

    Elite may not be a masterpiece, but it is a great return to a genre that’s been long irrelevant.

    In the end The Dark Below has some great ideas and adds to an already solid game, but what it adds does not seem to be worth 20 dollars.

    From diplomacy to war, there are far better games to occupy your time in this genre even if some are getting on in age.

    The Crew is a game filled with missed opportunities and unfulfilled potential.

    The Talos Principle is one of the most brilliant and engaging puzzle games ever made, with a fantastic and contemplative story that isn’t afraid to ask difficult questions. It’s a masterpiece.

    Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris’s new mechanics and graphical improvements make it a must-have for any couch co-op fan.

    Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy is a complete and utter masterpiece, and not playing it should be considered a criminal offense in the gaming community.

    Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire is a good remake, but new features and graphical updates make it a hard sell for those who have already invested many hours in the originals.

    It’s definitely an upgrade on the originals, but it’s also a rehash rather then a remaster.

    The WWE 2K series has experienced a very rough transition to the “next generation” of consoles. After two straight years of solid releases in WWE 13 and 2K14, Yukes has hit a wall.

    Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker is a fun puzzle-platformer with a huge amount of polish. The camera angles can sometimes get in the way of its greatness, but Toad’s first solo adventure is absolutely a memorable one.

    LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham is a worth addition to the LEGO Batman series, but while all that is good about these games has returned, all of the glaring issues with the series are worse than ever.

    It’s an enormously fun and creative take on two genres you would never think to see in bed together. The gameplay is tight and responsive, the boards are intricate and clever, and the splendid voice acting is an added delight.

    Warlords of Draenor is the pinnacle of a game we’ve been playing for over 10 years now. It’s absolutely the most polished version, with stunningly beautiful world design and a wonderful soundtrack that will fill you with awe during the course of your adventure.

    The overall experience has a trim and polish that is exceptional even by Nintendo’s standards, and while there are a few nitpicks that longtime fans of the series might find, it’s hard to argue against this being the best game in the series to date.

    There was heavy skepticism arising when it comes to Ubisoft Montreal being able to top Far Cry 3. Not only was Far Cry 3 a very impressive game with excellent gameplay, it was not even two years ago when it hit store shelves. Despite that, Far Cry 4 tops Far Cry 3 in every single way imaginable.

    We had a lot of praise for Rocksmith 2014 on previous gen, and it’s transition to new platforms has only improved on that.

    This War of Mine is one of the most emotionally investing games I’ve played in years, and it doesn’t need a complex set of gameplay systems to be what it is… a great game, and a deep piece of art on the horrors of war.

    While Persona Q’s story may be meaningless on its own, the dungeon crawling and strategic battle system are great challenges with an excellent cast to keep you company.

    Assassin’s Creed Rogue doesn’t do anything particularly innovative or different, but it builds on the fantastic ideas Black Flag brought to the table and adds a bit of its own flair. It’s a shame it’s been relegated to last-gen hardware though–here’s hoping it’ll get a chance to stretch out its legs.

    LittleBigPlanet 3 is worthy successor to the LBP series and a solid continuation of what made the first and second games such a hit with critics and gamers alike.

    If you’re a fan of the show, then you owe it to yourself to give these tables a shot — you won’t be disappointed.

    The strong story and gameplay remains intact, despite some small hiccups.
