    Watch Dogs
    It raises social and governmental questions around a person’s right to privacy. It delivers combat, stealth, story, and an incredible amount of side content to bring the whole world to life. I’m amazed at what the team at Ubisoft has delivered here, and I’m glad that they treated the hacker world with more respect and attention to detail than any other game or movie to date.

    Always Sometimes Monsters
    Always Sometimes Monsters is one of those independent, cult-classic-to-be, games that fans of narrative storytelling should really give a chance.

    Tropico 5
    A stop-gap measure, another coat of paint on a series designed for a specific audience that’s looking for a specific experience. The freshly streamlined interface may court some new blood, but a lackluster campaign and a failure to branch out from the micromanagement-heavy core sim experience makes this a tough sell for outsiders to the genre.

    Soul Sacrifice Delta
    At the end of the day, Soul Sacrifice Delta is a great looking game with an engrossing story, killer soundtrack and an in depth customization system – the only thing really holding this impressive handheld title back is the repetitive nature of its monster hunting gameplay.

    Project Temporality
    Project Temporality is not particularly original but it does provide a few leisurely hours of thoughtful time-clone puzzling.

    Borderlands 2
    If you’re itching to return to Pandora, then this will give you another way to play, but you’ll need to play it on a console to get the full experience.

    Wolfenstein: The New Order
    Balanced gameplay, a memorable story, characters with depth, and more than two dozen hours of content scratch a shooter itch that has been long dormant. Wolfenstein: The New Order delivers an experience well beyond my expectations, elevating this venerable series not only into a new generation, but raising the bar for story-driven shooters as a whole.

    Titanfall: Expedition
    Consisting of two very well designed maps and one recycled and repurposed yet still very enjoyable map, Expedition will certainly bring the faithful back to the table for more. Unfortunately, Titanfall still feels a little thin, mostly because a lack of maps was never really its problem.

    Mario Kart 8
    If you’re looking for a whimsical and accessible racing game to play with your friends and family, Mario Kart 8 is one of the best. Just don’t expect any additional content outside of the most basic modes.

    Super Time Force
    As if Super Time Force needed help being amazing, it also has a great, absolutely hilarious story, and that should not be understated. I have not had so many legitimate laugh-out-loud moments in a video game in a very, very long time.

    MLB 14: The Show
    Coming into the release of MLB 14: The Show, it was clear that this is the king of baseball games. Not only is it the king but no other game is coming anywhere near it’s level of greatness for quite some time.

    JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle
    In the end, Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure All Star Battle flashes a lot of style but lacks the substance that prevents it from being a great fighter.

    Bound by Flame
    Bound by Flame provides engaging mechanics and choices that actually matter, if you can stomach the horrible voice work.

    Sportsfriends
    There are several areas in which the individual games of this collection could be improved, but Sportsfriends achieves what it set out to do, and for that it is to be commended.

    God of War Collection
    While the Vita port is mechanically sound, its disappointingly low resolution and awkward use of the rear touch screen is appalling. Yeah, you can play God of War on the go now – but you probably shouldn’t.

    The Elder Scrolls Online
    I think the framework is there, but there are some painful missteps that are holding it back. MMOs are a constantly evolving ecospace, so it’s possible we’ll get there, but for now I’ll cautiously say…maybe.

    The Amazing Spider-Man 2
    While a lot of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 fails to impress, there is a decent amount of potential to be had in this Beenox product.

    Sir, You Are Being Hunted
    Sir, You Are Being Hunted has a delightful sense of humor, but it’s just not enough to carry the rest of the experience.

    Star Wars Pinball: Heroes Within
    If you are a fan of pinball or Star Wars or both—buy this DLC. It’s clear that the people at Zen Studios are experts at both, and $10 is a low price to pay for a few entertaining hours of bumper-slapping.

    NES Remix 2
    With bite size nibbles of the most challenging or salient aspects of what made these games great, NES Remix 2 also delivers more iconic and well-recognized games from the library that made Nintendo famous.

    Daylight
    All in all, Daylight is a respectable addition to the modern horror lineup that packs enough scare into its roughly three hour playtime to justify its modest $15 price tag.

    Titanfall
    Titanfall 360 may not be as pretty as the Xbox One edition, but it’s just as functional. Online-only games place most of their burden in places you’ll never see, giving them plenty of time to isolate complaints and patch up the holes.

    Child of Light
    Child of Light is a bright spot in a genre overwhelmed by mediocrity. Beautifully retro, yet modern, and incredibly addicting–Ubisoft Montreal has created a rich world and style that is unlike anything I’ve played before.

    LEGO The Hobbit
    LEGO The Hobbit is what everyone expected, which can be good or bad depending on your exposure to the series.

    Kirby: Triple Deluxe
    I’ve played quite a few Kirby games, and Kirby: Triple Deluxe may very well be my new favorite. It has perfected the platforming experience and has more content than even Kirby could fit into his fat mouth.

    Dark Souls II
    Dark Souls 2 for the PC is a far cleaner port attempt than the first Dark Souls port.

    2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil
    FIFA World Cup Brazil is a excellent meeting of the near perfect FIFA franchise from EA and the very perfect FIFA World Cup event.

    Mario Golf: World Tour
    Mario Golf: World Tour offers little in the way of surprises, but it’s still an entertaining and accessible golf game for the masses, with a decent amount of content for the price.
    • 89 Metascore

    Out of the Park Baseball 15
    Out of the Park 15 is not only a great baseball simulator, but approaches all-time great sports game, period status.

    Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag
    The PlayStation 4 version of the game is mechanically the same as the PlayStation 3 version, but the new engine is eye-poppingly awesome.
