Urban Strike  |
Rating of: 3/5
|
|
An adaptation of the popular Genesis series, the movement is slow and jerky, the controls sluggish and there is near constant slowdown. A poor conversion of a great game. |

| Uniracers |
Rating of: 2.5/5

|
AKA Unirally, this racer is unusual in that it is viewed side on as you use tricks to boost your speed on rollercoaster style tracks. Sounds more fun than it is. |

One of the most inept fighting games you are ever likely to play. |

A Truly Worthy Sequel
|
|
Way back in 1999, Black Isle Studios was at the height of its glory. Having met great success with the release of the original “Fallout,” a splinter within the dev team pitched an idea for a new D&D RPG that they would work on side-by-side with “Fallout 2.” Using the Infinity Engine, which sibling team, BioWare, was using for their not-yet-released-but-destined-for-fame “Baldur’s Gate,” the idea ... |

“Hammerwatch” is the inaugural effort by Swedish Indie developer, Crackshell Games, released in 2013 on Steam before being ported-around to all of the console digital storefronts in 2017. In 2013, Indie games were something of an unknown quantity, and plenty of gaming writers and pundits – myself included – considered them to be the savior of an ailing industry. However, from the outset, there ha... |

From Russia, with Mutants
|
|
“Metro Redux” is an 8th Gen remaster compilation of 2 7th Gen games, “Metro 2033” and “Metro Last Light,” which combine to tell a version of the events from the ‘Metro’ trilogy of novels by Russian writer, Dmitry Glukhovsky.

Finally, a Cure for Insomnia
|
|
It's easy to look to the past through rose-colored glasses. Waxing nostalgic seems to be one of humanity's greatest pastimes after all. Gaming is no exception. I liked the Secret of Mana - as I remember it. But then, I liked a lot of games but something makes me wonder if I had the time and motivation to go back an play all those NES, SNES and Playstation games over again, the ones I remember lov... |

Rating of: 4.5/5

It May Not Be New, But It's Still A Great Game
|
|
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe takes all the features from the original Mario Kart 8 on WiiU, adds the DLC and a new battle mode to make it the definitive version of Mario Kart 8 to own.
First off I'm going to say that if you own and enjoy the WiiU version of Mario Kart 8 you may not need to get this game, especially if you bought the DLC. Minus a new battle mode, these games are practically identical. ... |

Two Years Later, It's Nearly There!
|
|
Hello Games, and company director Sean Murray promised a lot of things into the release of No Man's Sky. When the game was released, it was immediately hit by a wave of angry gamers, rightfully pissed off about a wide range of missing features (including multiplayer) that were long promised. After several updates, the No Man's Sky of today is very different than the No Man's Sky of release. While... |

The Wang is Strong with This One
|
|
Modern FPS games tend to follow the same pattern - your Call of Modern Division Duty Warfare if you will. Those who search, however, can find a diamond in the morass. While Flying Wild Hog may not get the attention of their more flashy brethren, Shadow Warrior 2 is certainly something different. The humor is even more juvenile than the Borderlands game (which is both a boon and detriment) but it ... |
