This one animation is really good, but nah, the game itself didn’t earn a GOTY spot for plenty of reasons. It’s a fine game, but very middle-of-the-road. Exceptionally dull writing, too. Read more

We got a couple copies this week, so we’re currently playing it. Nathan’s handling our review, and he should have it done for Friday, when the game comes out. I’m planning to write some tips, too, though there’s a lot to take in! Read more

Hah. You know what, I’ve actually been thinking about going back and revisiting that game. Is this a good idea Y/N Read more

My review is pretty final, though the recommendation is still a Not Yet - the main reason I didn’t give it a qualified Yes was due to performance issues.
