Now, Revenge of the Savage Planet leaves that path behind and opts for massive content, despite being very consistent in most of its gameplay. It's a fun game packed with things to do, but we missed the more adventurous development of the first installment in the series.

Season is a contemplative experience that helps to break the rhythm of modern society and serves to rest and heal the soul.

Wild Hearts is a great gateway to the online hunting genre and a worthy alternative to Monster Hunter.
