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.
