Game Reviews

Dying Light on Switch is the same old Dying Light, which means it's one of the best survival horror games — just portable.

The Nintendo Switch OLED isn’t the next-gen Switch upgrade many were hoping to see, but for first-time Switch buyers, it’s worth the investment.

House of Ashes is, in some ways, the best game in The Dark Pictures Anthology yet, but the series still feels like it has unmet potential.

Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl is a solidly built platform fighter, hampered by connectivity issues and compelling solo modes.

Hell Let Loose can be a nightmarishly opaque experience for beginners, but behind that rough intro is a deep and well-crafted military simulation game.

Back 4 Blood comes after a decade of L4D-likes and from the studio that made the timeless original, but it fails to capture the same magic even as well as some prior imitators.

Metroid finally returns with a new sequel, and it’s exactly what we expect from the series. It’s a fine return to form for Samus with a huge world to explore but definitely doesn’t reinvent...

Rogue Lords will really annoy your fundamentalist relatives, but is it any fun? Well... that's a complicated question.

Far Cry 6 sits at the dead-end of a decade of sandboxes. Existing primarily as a sprawling checklist, its story shows flashes of excellence in a barrage of bad jokes and sometimes fun but familiar...

Astria Ascending has the makings of a unique RPG but never builds on its strengths to rise above average.

Alan Wake still shines in a modern landscape thanks to its unique story and intoxicating atmosphere, and the remastered visuals modernize it just in time for Remedy's inevitable sequel.

Kena Bridge of Spirits is a charming adventure that packs a ton of heart, as well as a wealth of engaging systems.

Hot Wheels Unleashed gets its racing and assortment of cars so very right, but unlocking more content is unfathomably restrictive and frustrating.

World War Z Aftermath doesn't drastically alter the 2019 horde shooter, but thanks to even more levels and a marquee new feature, it feels essential if you're already a fan.

Sable is a game about self-discovery that unfortunately, doesn't live up to its potential.

Cruis’n Blast is an absurd, bombastic, and fun trip through the Wayback Machine to the days of quarter-munching arcade racers.

Flexispot's 63" Ergonomic Gaming Desk is a great mid-tier option with some nice little bells and whistles — even if the cable management system could be a bit better.

A weird story of transhumanism and criminals in a rebuilt futuristic Warsaw, Gamedec is an interactive detective novel that's more interesting than traditionally fun.
