Dynasty Warriors: Gundam Reborn is rather unexceptional. It improves over the previous games in a number of ways, but not every change is for the better.

All in all, the content in Dark Souls II: Crown of the Sunken King boils down to around two hours for a playthrough, although deaths and retries have the potential to bloat that number.

All in all, Guardians of the Galaxy is an average table that will likely sell based on the license and the accessibility for casual players, rather than on the quality of the table itself. If you've already mastered every other table in the Pinball FX 2 library, then give it a look, but if you're still making your way through the Zen archive, there are better options.

Unless you absolutely must have your games made of polygons or completely hate the indie movement, you need to have Shovel Knight in your video game library.

The Super Ultra Dead Rising 3 Arcade Remix Hyper Edition EX Plus Alpha DLC is a nice addition to a very solid core game.

As a total package, it's a great starting point for new players. Gameplay mechanics like diplomacy have been simplified, so it's pretty easy to understand for newcomers.

While Tales from Space: Mutant Blobs Attack may be better suited to the handheld space due to its brevity, there's no denying that it's still a good fit for the home console.

From top to bottom, Daylight falls short of being a good horror game.

The Intercept DLC pack may feel like something that should have launched with the base game, but it's a welcome addition.

If you're a Sly Cooper fan or are looking for some good platforming action on your Vita, you need The Sly Cooper Collection.

Those who frustrate easily should avoid this title unless they really want to risk damaging their GamePads, but for those who love a good challenge, this title is worth checking out.

Monochroma has the heart of a good dramatic game, but it has neither the soul nor mechanics of one.

Atelier Rorona Plus is a great introduction to the franchise for beginners in terms of plot and mechanics. It might not be the best of the Atelier titles, but it's still a big improvement over the PS3 original.

The Last Tinker: City of Colors is a solid 3D platformer.

Anyone who likes the Neptunia characters would probably rather see them in their own events instead of fawning over a faceless protagonist. If you don't fall into either of those niches, the game doesn't offer anything. It's one simple minigame tied to some lackluster simulation-style gameplay, and it doesn't do anything well enough to carry the title for those who aren't fond of the Neptunia franchise.

RedLynx certainly hasn't lost any of the ideas that make the Trials series so much fun to play and has escalated the track design in a way that makes this game feel fresh and new, despite being the 13th entry in a decade-old series.

Conception II: Children of the Seven Stars is bland, tedious, and unexceptional.

It won't necessarily appeal to all of Bastion's fans, but Transistor shows that Supergiant Games isn't just a one-hit wonder and is capable of crafting an entirely different kind of game experience that is still exciting and delightful.

Super Time Force is a good shooter with some depth.

While it doesn't quite hit the high points that Deus Ex does, Watch Dogs smartly combines elements of the two franchises into something that's certainly worth playing.

Perhaps the biggest problem with The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is that it doesn't stray much from the previous game's formula, and when it does, it actively detracts from the game.

Mugen Souls Z does little to rock the boat, so fans of the original might be interested in revisiting this title, but anyone else will want to give it a pass.

Stick It to the Man is a charming and delightful little adventure game. It doesn't have the most content, but it's a fun experience.

The gameplay is varied, with a combination of decent stealth and very solid gunplay. The levels may sport drab colors, but the variety in location and inclusion of secrets in the level design make up for that. The story works well in a series that's not really known for telling a good narrative, and the dual pathways mean that an already long campaign is made longer for almost all the right reasons.

In the end, LEGO The Hobbit is most aptly described as Skyrim-lite.

Tesla Effect: A Tex Murphy Adventure is more than a love letter to the series' die-hard supporters. It's a solid adventure title that's loaded with brain teasers, personable characters, and a great musical score.

If you have a small interest in role-playing games, Child of Light comes highly recommended.

All in all, The Elder Scrolls Online is a pretty good game. It's not outstanding, and it's not terrible.

flOw is still a good game, but its presence means different things, depending on the platform you're playing it on.

Deception IV: Blood Ties is a very divisive game for the general public. Its slower pace has limited appeal, and the constant act of leading victims to traps can quickly become tedious.

Again, Tales of Symphonia Chronicles is worth picking up for Tales of Symphonia in HD alone. It remains a fantastic RPG to this day.

It's just disappointing that the game doesn't have that much depth, and with few exceptions, its only successes are things that have already been done before with different technology.

Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate - Deluxe Edition can be a fun game if you're able to get past the stumbling blocks.

If you're a big supporter of the PlayStation Mobile platform, then UFO Dad isn't a bad puzzle game.

Strider is a great example of how you can reboot an old arcade game with modern sensibilities and still keep it true to its roots.

Despite doing a number of things right, 1954: Alcatraz doesn't feel special.

While Gigantic Army feels like it's aiming for those who crave nostalgia, it comes with just enough material to make it stand out.

If you want more Arkham Origins, then it delivers. Otherwise, it'd be wiser to wait for Arkham Knight when it hits later this year.

Demon Gaze is a perfectly serviceable if unexceptional, dungeon crawler.

The Xbox 360 version of Titanfall is definitely the weakest version of the game thus far but only if you care about looks.

The lighthearted banter, the brightly colored scenes, enticing mystery, and solid puzzles make this something that the original Kickstarter campaign promised: "fan service aimed directly at those aching to experience one more story involving one of adventure gaming's favorite teams."

Without any multiplayer, exploration, or any other significant points of interest, Rain is a short, easy ride you'd be hard-pressed to venture into more than once.

The Last Agent is right up there with Fallen Angel as the best of the DLC packs available for Dead Rising 3.

At its core, Escape Plan is a mostly good puzzle game.

As usual, the selling point is the setting tied to the game. If you (or your kids) are big fans of "The Hobbit," then they'll enjoy the game. If not, it'd be better to look at one of the many other franchise tie-ins that have received the LEGO treatment.

I'd hesitate to suggest Dustforce as a must-play type of game, but for the cost of entry, you'll get some enjoyment out of it.

Luftrausers is a nice little getaway from the story-focused games that populate the landscape nowadays.

Despite its brevity, SteamWorld Dig: A Fistful of Dirt is an enjoyable title.

As a stand-alone piece of DLC, Chaos Rising isn't worth the bother.

Unless you already own the HD remakes on the Xbox 360 or PS3, you should try Resident Evil 4 Ultimate HD Edition on PC. From the story to the gameplay, the title still resonates today and stands as one of the more harrowing entries in the series.

For players who may never had heard of Shadowrun, Dragonfall is a firm introduction to what the world is all about. In many ways, it finally fulfills the promise of a real sequel. It won't brutalize players who are new to tactical gaming, and it won't stop veterans cold, but Dragonfall does an awesome job of translating Shadowrun's world into a digital battlefield fraught with shady choices.

The enjoyable combat and in-depth combat system carry the by-the-numbers plot, and the entire experience is fun. In a genre filled with world-saving, melodrama, and danger, it's nice to have an RPG with such relaxing goals.

If all you want to do is smash things in a virtual toy box full of hyper-detailed tanks, World of Tanks: Xbox 360 Edition is the kind of game that you can pick up and play for a few minutes before putting it back down.

What is sad about Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z is how much potential there is. A slightly goofy take on the universe isn't a bad concept, and the combat, while not as refined, can be fun at times. However, the litany of problems, from the stubbornly low enemy count to the bad camera and terrible platforming bog, put a damper on the game's few positives.

It lacks focus, and rather than building upon itself, it's something that only the most dedicated players can appreciate.

InFamous: Second Son is good but unmemorable — essentially the diner food of video games.

Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes is an excellent first taste of the gameplay we can expect in the upcoming Phantom Pain. It's well designed, well tuned, and a lot of fun to play, but the general game design and lack of content make it feel like an extended demo rather than a full game.

Fallen Angel is certainly the better of the two DLC packs so far, but that isn't saying much. Angel is certainly more interesting, even if they barely give her a backstory, and the story is more interesting once you see it as part of the bigger picture.

The Xbox One finally has a console-exclusive shooter, and TitanFall is such a damned good one that it's tough to go back and play others.

Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster Collection is easily the best available version of the two games. Some nagging flaws, like inconsistent HD visuals and extra loading times, do little to detract from the overall quality of the experience.

The core gameplay and basic design sensibilities have been retained, and while there are some concessions to player ease, they don't interfere with the gameplay

Dead Rising 3: Operation Broken Eagle is sort of just there. The story doesn't offer anything interesting to shed a different light on the main story.

Though it has lots of similarities with Capcom's big series, Toukiden: The Age of Demons can stand on its own.

Despite some setbacks, Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare is a fun game.

Pac is mostly good, though a few oddities hold him back from being a fully plausible platforming hero, especially since those same issues aren't present in the home console version. The level design isn't anything special, and the repetition of bosses is disappointing.

Longtime fans might find the new take on Garrett hard to swallow. Thief's thin story doesn't explain much in the end when it tops things off, but I enjoyed the time spent in the City. I wouldn't mind revisiting for another go in Garrett's shoes, but I hope that by then, some of the training wheels will have been removed.

A fun and unusual romp. It feels like a children's title that also appeals to older gamers thanks to the art style and strange method of conveying its morals to the audience. The game feels like it should only be played in short bursts, due to the monotony that sets in after long sessions of performing the same tasks over and over.

It's not perfect, and the chrome finish is marred by a few pacing and polish quibbles, but successfully taking Hiryu's seemingly anachronistic style into the 21st century has only proven how much he has improved with time.

Unfortunately, Goodbye Deponia is a wasted effort by Daedalic because it's marred by a series of bad moral decisions, and the protagonist is the epitome of unlikeable.

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 is about as much of a step backward as a direct sequel can be.

As long as your expectations are tempered, Halo: Spartan Assault is a serviceable game. It works as a top-down shooter, but you'll miss the enemy intelligence of the older games.

In the end, Max: The Curse of Brotherhood is a fine game for puzzle platforming fans.

If you're fond of unrestrained mayhem and interesting weaponry, Earth Defense Force 2025 is a must-buy.

Etrian Odyssey Untold: The Millennium Girl has a limited audience. It exists for people who want to get into dungeon crawlers but find the mechanics confusing and the plots lacking.

It isn't the best title in the series, but it certainly isn't the worst, and if you're looking to play a fighting game that tries something new, rent Battle of Z before committing to the purchase.

The new incarnation of Warlords isn't great, but it isn't bad, either, under certain conditions.

It comes so close to greatness that it's possible to overlook its glaring flaws. Just be warned that it'll be a slog to get to the end.

While LocoCycle is far from the worst game of the Xbox One launch, it certainly isn't the best.

Frame rate problems and a nonsensical story are balanced by one of the franchise's best combat systems, which is held together by a strange patchwork of gameplay mechanics. Some work, some don't, and some are too strange to properly judge.

DanganRonpa: Trigger Happy Havoc is one of the most distinctive murder mystery games on the market.

Unless you need to take out your aggression on digital foes while conquering seemingly impossible platforming obstacles, I'd recommend Knytt Underground.

If you are truly desperate for a Saint Seiya title, then this may work, but you're better off waiting for a better, more polished game to come along.

All in all, Deadfall Adventures doesn't have a lot of positives.

Blood of the Werewolf is a good homage to the side-scrolling horror platformer games of yesteryear.

Overall, the Champions Bundle isn't bad if you're still a dedicated Halo 4 player. The maps are good, and the aesthetics are plentiful for those who care about that. If you're just a casual participant in the multiplayer, you're better served by only purchasing the map pack.

It doesn't reinvent the wheel, but the amount of care and polish that went into this title is readily apparent.

Lego Marvel Super Heroes is fantastic.

Much like in previous years, NBA 2K14 is a good basketball game.

Scribblenauts Unmasked: A DC Comics Adventure is good for what it is. The main quests have a decent level of difficulty, the open nature of quest-solving is still present, and the large cast of DC characters is more than impressive, especially since it can be supplemented with original downloadable creations.

Even though it's competitively priced compared to its contemporaries, Urban Trial Freestyle can only be recommended if you've already gone through those other titles and if this game is on sale at a good discount.

Gran Turismo 6 is a very good racing game that simultaneously improves upon its predecessor and fails to live up the high standards set by the series.

The online experience could be better, especially with such a small community, but the game is solid enough in other areas that it is easily one of the better fighting games for the platform and worth checking out.

Power Rangers: Megaforce is a bad game.

The Night of the Rabbit is certainly one of Daedelic's better games. The gameplay is faithful to the point-and-click adventure genre blueprint, but only with a few obtuse puzzles.

Cities of Tomorrow isn't a bad expansion if you're already a big fan of SimCity and are itching for new ways with which to test your city-building skills within Maxis' sandbox.

Senran Kagura Burst may be repetitive in nature but knows how to remain fun.

Super Motherload is a strangely addicting game that some players might dismiss due to the lack of depth in the title.

Batman: Arkham Origins - Blackgate isn't a bad game, but it's a lesser game. It tries extremely hard to mimic its console brethren, but all it does is highlight everything it's missing.
