Crysis 3 review
CELL agents are the orcs to your Legolas.

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance review
It always seemed like a matter of time before we got a game like Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance. I just figured that I would be playing it on the Wii. Instead, 1:1 swordplay has managed to find full expression with the tried and true…

Generation of Chaos: Pandora's Reflection review
Developers these days often try to pack as many features into their games as possible, but, for the most part, those features wind up feeling half-assed. In contrast, Generation of Chaos: Pandora’s Reflection emphasizes a single feature…

Little Nemo: The Dream Master review
Presumably you’re not reading this review because you’re getting ready to open a new copy of Little Nemo to play on your brand new NES. I have to figure instead that you have an emulator and may have been wondering whether there’s anything…

Dragon Quest VI: Maboroshi no Daichi review
And most importantly: once upon a time, three brave heroes advanced upon the castle of the fierce demon lord Mudo in an attempt to bring his reign of terror to an end. The foul beast was prepared, though, and cast a horrible spell that…

Dishonored review
Dishonored is a bit of a surprise. It takes concepts from a few prominent games, but is distinct enough to stand-alone and even surpasses certain elements of those titles. The controls manage to put to shame years of FPS-action games, and…

White Noise: A tale of Horror review
You can never accuse White Noise of being original, but that’s okay; it’s sure as hell effective.

Brain Age: Concentration Training review
You will do as the floating polygonal head commands.

Dungeonland review
You might cackle at the fact that Critical Studio intentionally labeled the easiest difficulty setting as Hard, but that laughter won’t last for long. There will be livid grunting and even a runaway tear here or there, until you and your…

Aliens: Colonial Marines review
I'll say this about Colonial Marines: had it been released a decade ago, it would have looked passable. The blocky modeling, muddy textures and embarrassing particle effects are all GameCube-quality, and the characters' complete lack of…

Dead Space 3 review
I don't mind that Dead Space 3 is an action game; I mind that it's a clumsy, uninspired one.

Adventure Time: Hey Ice King! Why'd You Steal Our Garbage?!! review
Jake and Finn's quest to retrieve their trash from the Ice King borrows a number of cool ideas from Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, but the adventure doesn't last long enough to do anything substantial.

Disney Epic Mickey: Power of Illusion review
Although the stages are large enough to be interesting, you’ll have to visit each one several times if you want to discover all of the castle’s secrets. You unlock life meter extensions and improvements to your various attacks by…

Spyro the Dragon review
Level designs often pair different sorts of beasts and toss them into a compact space. In Alpine Ridge, you’ll face armored rooster people that try to smack you with their scepters. In the same general vicinity, you’ll also encounter…

Sonic & All-Stars Racing: Transformed review
Sonic & Sega All Stars Racing: Transformed is a kart racer that quickly and cheerfully dispels any cynicism about the genre.

Under Defeat HD review
There’s nothing else out there quite like Under Defeat, and while it gained reverence in its obscurity, the world missed out. Don’t miss out at an unexpectedly well-crafted second chance to find out for yourself.

Salamander review
Sadly, Salamander is a rarity — a Gradius-style game that doesn't operate by these rules. Instead, you get the simple-n-generic sort of system where enemies drop power-ups represented by various icons and, by collecting them, you…
