Batman: Arkham City

Are you a chicken man or a BATMAN?

Decidedly Batman Arkham Asylum had lots of room for improvement and people usually don't hate money so a sequel didn't take too long to come. Two years after the first game Arkham City arrived and tried the somewhat easy... Read Full Review

Batman: Arkham Asylum

Something laughs in the dark.

Unfortunately when it comes to PC games -- and this review is based on the PC version of the game -- there are much more than the actual game to comment on. Sometimes it's sad to say that the complex structures of PC bui... Read Full Review

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U

While nothing really groundbreaking can be found here, basically no one expected that anyway.

People, people, comparing anything titled Smash Bros with Melee at this point is poignant. When a developer wants to make tweaks to improve upon a game they've established they have two ways. Throw everything into the ru... Read Full Review

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS

Super Mario 3D World

It might feel a little out of place in the Wii U, but still solid.

This is the Wii version and follow-up to the reboot version of Mario released for the Nintendo 3DS a while back. I've already talked about the previous game, Super Mario 3D Land and argued that while it might seems stran... Read Full Review

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD

Correcting the past.

It was a decisive moment for Zelda at that time and age. The wheel was set in motion when Ocarina of Time broke the boundaries of 2D to delve into the 3-dimensional realm. Having sowed the seeds for the way Zelda was ima... Read Full Review

Pokemon Shuffle

One of those infinite games, it might suck you in if you're not careful.

The new trend in gaming are the infinite games that leave you with two main choices, you either pay for whatever currency it features or you'll have to stick to its sluggish presentation to advance. Since it finds its mo... Read Full Review

Chrono Trigger

An imprtant chapter in gaming history.

Not many games get to have a legendary status that dares to transcend the test of time, among this panteon of titles stands Chrono Trigger as one of the few that helped define the action RPG scene, moving a large fanbase... Read Full Review

Chrono Trigger

Picross Touch

It does what it sets out to do.

What do you expect from a lighter? Fire? Bring peace to the Middle East? Resolve math problems? There's some things which are simple because they don't need to be any more complexity. Picross Touch is one of those games.... Read Full Review

Super Mario Maker

It's perfect for what it strives to be

Two dimensional Mario games are a sure way to earn some money while maintaining the faith in quality as well as refurbishing the same old thing for God-knows how many times. Nintendo is as guilty of rehashing ideas that... Read Full Review

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

Some series are not meant to be taken lightly.

I've said it before in 2004, it doesn't matter whether or not this is too classic to be messed with, it doesn't matter if it's Nintendo most serious game and when people buy it -- and they'll buy it if the box clearly s... Read Full Review

Resident Evil 6

When a game loses its soul, it loses everything.

On the third main title after rebooting the series into a more action-oriented third person shooter with horror elements Resident Evil seems to have forgotten lessons learned with the fourth and fifth iterations as well... Read Full Review

Gears of War: Judgment

This might look the black sheep of the family, but it's actually worth it.

Right from the get-go you realize why this is called “Judgement”. Somehow, Damon Baird, one of the original four in the group since the first Gears, is being judged in a rather trumped-up trial. The form in ... Read Full Review

Toki Tori

While this cute cover hides a sinister core, it's above all a great puzzle game.

Some games can easily fool you into thinking they’re something else. Take Terraria for example, one might think it’s just a stylish platformer about going from point A to point B when it’s so much more... Read Full Review

Toki Tori

Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze

Sparkling with life, ruined by the controls.

By now it shouldn't come as a surprise to no one but these new games don't really do the original Donkey Kong Country franchise its justice. The base games were the most spectacular experiences anyone could have in gami... Read Full Review

The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD

With timeless visuals in full glory of high-definition and an adventure to be remembered, Wind Waker is a gem.

I might be a minority here but I don't remember freaking out on Zelda's new style back in the beginning of the 2000's. I remember waiting for the magazine that contained all the information of the game that was about to... Read Full Review

New Super Mario Bros. U

The best thing about this is that we finally get to see Mario in glorious HD; regardless of it being a solid game.

The "new" in the name is pretty much redundant as of now, presented here is what we were all introduced in the Nintendo DS glory days of 2006. Ever since that DS game 2D Mario has been a constant for Nintendo. There's no... Read Full Review

Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate

As monolithic as it is intriguing.

Monster Hunter is one of those series that aren't exactly mainstream in the West so the hottest market for it is Japan, side by side with many other games that seemingly sell like water in a desert in Japanese markets y... Read Full Review

Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon

Light-hearted adventure that is not afraid to dare where it needs to.

I have good memories form the original Luigi's Mansion, one of those "hidden gems" from the GameCube days, since the GameCube itself is a hidden gems, it seems. It was a simple game that did many things right at the time... Read Full Review

Mario Kart 7

Good old Mario Kart, nothing more, nothing less.

Good thing this release has the number on the name because, frankly, after Double Dash I simply lost count. Mario Kart seems stuck in time for all the good and bad reasons anyone could think of. There's little to no roo... Read Full Review

Dishonored

A breeze of fresh air.

Lately I had the urge to play a stealth game, I often have this urge but end up replaying stuff like Team Fortress 2 anyway. This time I was going to hunt down some game that had me slow-pace through it as a main objecti... Read Full Review

Mortal Kombat Arcade Kollection

If you can go past the disgusting single player difficulty, these are still awesome.

What you get from this collection is simply the first three games ported to recent generation hardware and put together. We all know them well, all great games that might appear better in our nostalgic mind than what the... Read Full Review

Mega Man Legacy Collection

The most classic compilation ever.

Let's judge this for the collection itself and how much effort was put into making this worth the money. In a world where downloading an emulator with a ROM for a game that could run on a calculator it's not so easy to ... Read Full Review

The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds

Save the boat and train rides for the real life.

Here we go again, another Zelda for a handheld and a surprise; this pretty much might be the best Zelda released on a handheld. I remember Minish Cap with vagueness and good will. The both Oracle ones were pretty sweet.... Read Full Review

Resident Evil: Revelations

Technology is knocking on the door, don't dare to make it wait.

It's been a while now since Resident Evil drifted away from pure survival horror for the sake of surviving an ever-growing industry with increasingly more dynamic control schemes. Anything outside this territory is nich... Read Full Review

Super Mario 3D Land

Because you gotta have the plumber wherever you may go.

You can always count on Mario delivering the goods, at least it seems. Nintendo has been one disgusting company for quite a while now, releasing obnoxious games in a landslide, but Mario is Mario, you can't miss it. Lack... Read Full Review

The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks

Not memorable but not bad either.

Spirit Tracks is not known for being the best Zelda game around, this little fact made me pretty cautious about how to approach this Zelda game. Some people tend to overestimate Zelda games, they have them in some kind ... Read Full Review

Crysis 2

Crysis decided to be like other derivative, forgettable shooters.

The first Crysis, as I’ve written about in a previous review, is much more than an average first-person shooter. The fact you had at your disposal the possibilities of your “super suit” actually made i... Read Full Review

The Legend of Zelda: Majoras Mask 3D

Majora’s Mask is a dark jewel to behold.

I have to admit that after the two successful Zelda re-releases on the 3DS I'm ready to rebuy everything from the Nintendo 64 days. Just keep 'em coming and take my money. Would be great to have a portable Banjo-Kazooie ... Read Full Review

Pokemon Picross

This is basically a demo, if you like it the purchase is almost mandatory.

This is a neat little game that can be downloaded freely from the 3DS store, though you can hardly play it without paying. Unless you are extremely casual and play something like one or two puzzles a day just for fun th... Read Full Review

Yoshi's New Island

Nintendo needs to add difficulty setting to their games.

Really, Nintendo should learn a new concept called difficulty setting. I understand they have always had that sweet spot for children, but recently some games just take it way overboard. Yoshi’s New Island is meant... Read Full Review

Fallout: New Vegas

New Vegas carries the Fallout title pretty well.

I wasn’t so sure about what to expect, it didn’t seem like a new full-fledged game at all but somehow felt like it was a completely new turn on how Fallout was handled in its third installment. Knowing the de... Read Full Review

Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D

Oh, how the mighty have fallen.

I can’t say how much of a surprise this was when Nintendo finally announced a proper sequel to my favorite game of all time–side by side with Banjo-Kazooie. It was never really a surprise that Miyamoto didn&... Read Full Review

Gears of War 3

Action-packed, solid release from Gears.

After 3 installments it's kind of hard to keep things fresh and interesting. Gears of War is not the sharpest tool in the shed anyway, the focus has always been and will probably always be action. From checkpoint to chec... Read Full Review

DiRT 2

Good off-road racing simulator.

Some discrepancies must be sated before anything else. Racing simulators are essentially different than arcade racers. Arcade tends to go for enjoyment over anything else, the sense of maximum speed controllable–so... Read Full Review

Assassin's Creed II

Crystallizing its place within the hall of the newer generation's most hyped series.

I cannot deny Assassin’s Creed 1 was my cup of tea. Sure, it had its problems, sure there were only a few different objectives after all, sure most people were interested because of the beautiful graphics. Still, ... Read Full Review

Tales of the Abyss

Good port of Tales, keep 'em RPGs coming

The primary focus of re-releases is giving the opportunity to people who have never had the chance to play the game to go ahead and actually play it. This Tales of re-release for the 3DS has been bashed by critics for no... Read Full Review
