    If you can ignore the nonsensical story and execution, Shooting Stars is a decent arcade shooter.

    Gravity Rush Remastered is a very solid adventure game whose charm really comes from movement.

    Far Cry: Primal is an example of how ambition doesn't always translate to success. It's overly familiar and overly safe, and it does little with its concept.

    With control options on the PC being rather limited, the game is only good for those who care about competition. For everyone else looking for something closer to what the older games provided, give it a month to see if things improve.

    Ultimately, LEGO Marvel's Avengers delivers plenty of fan service, but it fails to top its predecessors. Instead of something new and innovative, LEGO Marvel's Avengers is a by-the-numbers sequel that scratches the LEGO itch but doesn't offer much more than that. It's also the easiest LEGO game yet.

    The fun of the original title is still here but has been amplified with the addition of new maps and classes.

    While a few will find some genuine fun here, most may wait for a price drop and seek out other titles to satisfy their craving for a twin-stick shooter.

    Project X Zone 2 is an improvement over the original game in a lot of ways but still maintains some of its fundamental flaws.

    The Deadly Tower of Monsters is a very enjoyable romp.

    Unravel is pure charm from start to finish. It's not going to redefine the platformer genre, but it's a wonderfully atmospheric and enjoyable title with solid gameplay and delightful visuals.

    The Witness is a masterpiece of game design and an early contender for one of the best titles of the year.

    XCOM 2 took a formula that was already deeply compelling and made it even better.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Tharsis isn't a game for everyone. Strategy may be an important factor in determining how long you'll survive, but luck plays a much bigger role in things toward the end. The game is punishingly difficult early on, but it throws you a bone every now and then with character unlocks that can make things feel different.

    Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen is a great RPG that can really shine on more powerful hardware.

    Shadow Puppeteer is a fun and simple co-op game.

    In the end, Amplitude isn't quite the masterpiece that many had expected. The idea of a concept album for the Campaign mode is good, but the execution has too many interruptions that prevent the concept from being fully realized.

    Final Fantasy Explorers is a poor Monster Hunter clone but still a reasonably fun game.
    • 73 Metascore

    If you didn't like Rise of the Tomb Raider, the Baba Yaga DLC isn't going to change your mind, but fans of the base game will find plenty to love here.

    Atelier Escha and Logy Plus: Alchemists of the Dusk Sky is a solid port of a good game.

    It may have a lot more dialogue than puzzles, but it is so well written that you miss it in the silent moments. The interesting story is backed up by likeable characters, and the whole thing is wrapped up with a presentation that bleeds style.

    Sword Art Online - Re: Hollow Fragment is definitely for the fans, especially since it makes no real effort to ease newcomers into the world.

    Unless you're getting Pilot Crusader as part of a bigger indie game bundle, there isn't much reason to grab this title, even if you're really into high score runs.

    The HD remastering of Resident Evil Zero may not have everything that the remake of the first game had, but it does feel like a more improved version of the original GameCube release.

    Danganronpa Another Episode: Ultra Despair Girls is for those who care more about story than shooting.

    With a striking yet simple presentation, Zenzizenzic is a fresh take on the twin-stick shooter.

    The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel is an excellent, well-made RPG.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Phantom Breaker: Battle Grounds Overdrive is a solid brawler that gets a little bit of a boost on the PS4 simply because the system doesn't yet have a comparable brawler.
    • 74 Metascore

    Zombie Vikings is an experience that would've been better if the bugs had been cleaned up and there were more meat to the gameplay.

    Sword Art Online: Lost Song is a game for fans of the anime. It relies heavily on players recognizing the story twists and turns and grasping how the anime mechanics translate into gameplay.

    Super Snow Fight is a fun but shallow experience.
