Detroit: Become Human  |
Rating of: 4/5
|
I, For One, Welcome Our New Robotic Overlords
|
|
While David Cage rubs some people the wrong way, I've always been a fan of his and Quantic Dream. From Indigo Prophecy to Heavy Rain to Beyond: Two Souls - one thing his games are is never boring, even if the narrative can get messy. Detroit: Become Human is the studios most ambitious game to date and while some notes fall flat here and there, for the most part it gets things right and is one of ... |

| Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Tides of War |
Rating of: 4/5
|
|
Sequel to the original 16 bit FPS with added shades of Doom thanks to its demonic scenario. A little generic in the early stages but it gets better and better as it goes thanks to its varied enemies, many secrets to discover and atmospheric, well designed levels. |

Satisfy Your Old-School RPG Thirst
|
|
Cthulhu Saves the World is an old-school throw-back turned-based parody RPG done right.
Cthulhu loses his devastating powers and must become a true hero to get them back. Cthulhu sets out on an adventure to figure out how to get them back. He'll team up with several great characters, including a living sword, cat, and a dragon. Will he destroy the world when he regains his power?

| LIMBO |
Rating of: 4/5
|
Artistic Puzzle Platformer
|
|
LIMBO is an artistically unique indie platformer with simplistic black and white visuals, no music, but intentional well placed sounds. The story is a bit of an mysterious unknown, probably intentionally open for interpretation. All we know for sure is you are playing a boy who appears to be looking for a girl. Did he get lost? Is he dreaming? You decide.

| Sumoman |
Rating of: 3/5
|
Janky and Humorous Platformer
|
|
Sumoman is a puzzle platformer with janky physics, difficult platforming, destructible objects, sushi roll collection, and the ability to reverse time (thank God). Trying to keep the morbidly obese Sumoman on his feet is the main feature of this game that sets it apart from other platformers.
Sumoman travels home from a sumo tournament to find everyone sleeping. Something is wrong, and Sumoma... |

| SoulCalibur II |
Rating of: 5/5
|
|
The biggest selling point of the Dreamcast was its superb version of Soul Calibur, and this sequel is even better. To this day it's still my favourite fighting game bar none. |

| JSRF: Jet Set Radio Future |
Rating of: 3.5/5
|
|
Great looking cel shaded graphics and a cult soundtrack marks JSRF from the crowd in this graffiti-based rollerblading game. Cynics could point out it's just a dumbed-down version of Tony Hawk with self-consciously "cool" window dressing, but it is fun and worth it for the audio-visuals alone. |

| Blaster Master Zero II |
Rating of: 3.5/5
|
A Fine Sequel That's Not as Good as the First
|
|
Blaster Master Zero 2 holds onto the great aspects of the first game in the series and even makes it easier to have fun but in the end the story along with the level implementation ends up making it feel like it's taking a step backwards.
Blaster Master Zero 2 is a sequel to Blaster Master Zero which debuted on Nintendo Switch in 2017. Blaster Master Zero is actually a reboot of the original ... |

Destiny 2: Ecclectic Boogaloo
|
|
While the MeltedJoystick crew often scoffs at the notion of MMOs, it is also a fact that some of our favorite co-op games are actually MMOs, from Defiance to Dragon Nest, our group is no stranger to the genre. While we skipped Destiny (mainly because it wasn't offered on PC), when Destiny 2 was offered for free and the DLC discounted, we figured, why not? Bungie, who honed their skills on the Hal... |

| The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX |
Rating of: 5/5
|
Zelda's First Handheld Game is Superb
|
|
The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening was Nintendo's first attempt at a handheld Zelda game and it's amazing even to this day.
Link's Awakening debuted for the original Game Boy in 1993. Then, it was re-released on Game Boy Color which upgraded it to a color version of the game with an added dungeon in 1998. That game's name is Link's Awakening DX. If you own a 3DS, you can the virtual cons... |
