Bubble Bobble Double Shot  |
Rating of: 2.5/5
|
|
Reboot of the original platform game Bubble Bobble rather than the Bust-A-Move/Puzzle Bobble games that came after. Nostalgics may enjoy it but it's pretty simplistic and the DS "enhancements" serve just to confuse. |

| Mr. Driller: Drill Spirits |
Rating of: 3/5
|
|
Puzzle-style game that's a cross between a Tetris-style falling block game and Boulder Dash. Not a great deal more to it than that but it's good fun in small doses. |

| FIFA Soccer 11 |
Rating of: 2.5/5
|
|
Yet another run of the mill kickabout from the EA conveyor belt. Sluggish and it's big "innovation" is a mode where you spend the entire game as a single player wondering where the ball is. Whoop. |

| Strange Brigade |
Rating of: 4/5

Mummy Always Said I Was Strange
|
|
“Strange Brigade” was released in 2018 by Rebellion Developments, a British developer that started in the early ‘90s and spent most of its formative decade creating licensed swill for Atari and Nintendo handhelds. As a developer, Rebellion has been in the Shooter business since its inceptions, frequently doing grunt-work for publishing overlords the likes of Atari, Activision, and Sega. All... |

Railroading on the Railroad
|
|
“Metro Exodus” is the third title released by Ukrainian developer, 4A Games, in the ‘Metro’ series, based on a Russian-language series of post-apocalyptic novels written by Dmitry Glukhovsky. “Metro Exodus” was released in February 2019, after a rather long development cycle, with its immediate predecessor, “Metro Redux” – a compilation of remastered versions of the first two ... |

Better Than the Stand-Alone Versions
|
|
"Evoland: Legendary Edition" is a compilation re-release of "Evoland" and "Evoland 2," and is the first time those games have been available for play on console digital storefronts. In general, there's very little about this compilation that differs from the stand-alone versions of the games that have been available on PC since 2013 and 2015, respectively. However, there are a few bugfixes (speci... |

Join the Russian Underground Today
|
|
Metro 2033 is the brainchild of 4A Games ( Oles' Shiskovtsov and Aleksandr Maksimchuk) who left GSC Game World to develop the series based on the novels by Dmitry Glukhovsky. It manages to rise above the standard FPS fare by providing a decent story, great atmosphere and generally strong overall performance. It was good enough that it has spawned two sequels as well as Redux version that updates ... |

| South Park: The Fractured But Whole |
Rating of: 4/5
|
The Franchise Strikes Back
|
|
In 2014, South Park creators teamed with Obsidian / THQ (and later, Ubisoft) to deliver The Stick of Truth, which mixed RPG with South Park to hilarious results. The game was like playing an actual South Park episode. The Fractured but Whole is followup - with Ubisoft once again taking the reigns while also shaking up the combat. Plus, it leaves the fantasy setting behind for superheroes and the ... |

Lovecraft-Lite Provides Decent Enjoyment
|
|
While scouring the wasteland that is Steam local multiplayer options, the MJ crew were presented with this Metroidvania game. I'm not opposes to the genre at all and though I have never played Jotun, the game at least looked quite presentable. While Sundered will not change your worldview or make you cry tears of joy, it does provide a decent amount of solid entertainment and is a good way to pas... |

A Castlevania Clone That Meets Expectations
|
|
Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night fills a need for console gaming that Konami didn't address for years.
Make no mistake, Bloodstained is a Castlevania clone. For those who do not know the story behind Bloodstained, here's a really short summation. One of the former producers of Castlevania, Koji Igarashi, wanted to make another game and went through Kickstarter to get funding. Over 5 million ... |
