A Great Combo Pack

Verified Purchase:Yes
For those who missed Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel (which released late in the PS3/Xbox 360 life cycle), this collection is a must. While it would have been nice to have gotten the original Borderlands in this collection too, this is still a great value for the asking price at this point. Borderlands 2 was a GOTY candidate when it released a few years ago, and this collection includes all the additional content that made its way to the game post-release. Between these two games, you can easily squeak out 100 hours of gameplay. Highly recommended if you love loot-based games, irreverent humor, and a distinctive FPS art style.

Basketball's Best Game/Developer

Verified Purchase:Yes
Growing up, the premier basketball games used to be EA's NBA Live series. However, around ten years ago, they ceded their position to 2K/Visual Concepts, and NBA2K has dominated ever since. Each subsequent year, the 2K team tries to do things that really separate the games from their predecessors, whether its new modes, added online functionality, or improved gameplay. This year's game does the same, with Spike Lee attempting to create a memorable experience of a player's rise from obscurity to becoming a star in the NBA. Granted, the name 'Frequency Vibrations' is hilariously stupid, but you can't help but admire the risk-taking of Lee/2K in trying to do something more that makes players more invested in the game. Visually amazing and fun to play, I would definitely recommend this to anybody who's a basketball fan, and hope that somehow 2K could convince the NCAA to make another 2K College Hoops game in the same vein.

You take the lead as your team approaches a clean new area, free of color and chaos. With a smirk, you take it all in ~ you'll soon change that. Two teammates begin spraying down walls, floors, ceilings and every other imaginable surface with ink, claiming this territory as your own with a vivid wash of your colors. You and another fighter scan the area for enemies. The opposition never sees you as you sneak up and douse them in an ink bath they'll never forget. This turf is all yours ~ it's time to move on and paint the whole world in your team's colors.Get messy with Splatoon, a fun-filled third-person action shooter that challenges you to cover levels, and enemies, with a brilliant spray of colorful ink. Take on the role of an Inkling, a squid-like fighter ready to cover yourself and everything around you with your team's hues. Cover the terrain around you in ink to claim it, and spray walls to gain access to hard-to-reach areas. Earn high-powered super weapons by soaking your turf in ink, so you can cover your enemies in color or spray more territory. Put on your thinking cap to dream up devastating strategies, but don't forget to keep an eye on your turf ~ too much attention on the other team may lead to a redecoration of your own territory. Easily refill your tank or hide from enemies with just a touch of a button, or transform into a squid and dive into ink for a blazing-fast speed boost. Attack your own way with a multitude of control options thanks to the Wii U GamePad controller, including gyroscopic controls that let you look around, aim and more with precision. Band together with three friends and get online to take on other teams in four-on-four matches that will have you perched on the edge of your seat. A color-soaked battle awaits ~ are you ready to claim your turf?

Reinventing the shooter

Leave it to Nintendo to take what many would think as predictable genre and turn it on its head. For those who are tired of the status quo shooters (whether third person or FPS varieties), Splatoon will be a breath of fresh air--a game where aspects of teamwork merge with a colorful art style to create an engrossing experience. Your characters in this game are squid-like people, and the purpose of the game is to use your ink/paint to color as much of the board as possible before time runs out. Meanwhile, the other team tries to do the same. Battles can be quite frantic, especially as the teams come together, and the maps all have variation and verticality to them that makes for interesting encounters. While the game was initially lacking content at its release, Nintendo has continued to expand the game in the months since (for free, which is incredibly great), and today, it's definitely worth owning if you bit on a Wii U. I highly recommend it, not only for the fun factor, but also to support Nintendo's creativity in taking a genre many feel was/is going stale and doing something truly different.

Whetting the appetite for the upcoming sequel

Verified Purchase:Yes
A brand new IP that came relatively late in the PS3/Xbox 360 life cycle, Dishonored was a breath of fresh air and an ode to the Thief games of old. Experienced from a first person perspective, the game places you in the role of a man who must turn assassin in order to clear his name. However, the game is built to allow you an amazing amount of freedom in how you approach missions, and it was this smart level design that really made it stand out. Flash forward two years later, and we now have a remastered version for current generation hardware, just in time to experience the world again before the sequel releases this summer/fall. If you've yet to experience the game, I highly recommend it; if you've played it last gen, I would still recommend it if you can snag it for $15 or less (picked my copy up for $12 on Black Friday).

Great for first timers or nostalgia

Verified Purchase:Yes
The Final Fantasy X/X-2 collection pairs two of Square's venerable JRPG Final Fantasy games back from the PlayStation 2 era, and repackages them into one experience, with a graphical overhaul and trophies (for those who like collecting them). As for the games themselves, you're mostly buying this series for the first game, though both games take place in the same universe. The second game is a little more lighthearted than the first game, and its story generally doesn't measure up to the original. However, for completionists there's plenty of gameplay for your buck here, as you could log anywhere from 75-100 hours on each game. If you've never experienced a Final Fantasy game and are looking for one that still looks relatively modern, you can't go wrong with this package (though the voice acting is hilariously atrocious). For the roughly $20-30 price tag, it's worth experiencing again (or for the first time).

The barren landscape stretches out before you, seemingly unending with no signs of life and no relief from the relentless sun. As you navigate your battering ram of a vehicle over the remnants of a long-abandoned highway, you contemplate this existence you call life. There is no mercy in this post-apocalyptic world and no solace ~ only the instinctual quest for survival and the cold comfort that is vengeance. You've become a lone warrior, a reluctant hero, but only because your choices were that or death. The only thing that gives you any hope is the thought of leaving this madness behind and finding peace at last in the storied Plains of Silence. You are Mad Max, and these are the end of times.Embark on a dangerous journey through the Wasteland that is this post-apocalyptic world on a quest to retrieve your Interceptor, which has been stolen by a deadly gang of marauders. Take on each foe with brutal moves and combos that are your only chance of beating the deranged bandits of the Wasteland. Scavenge the landscape for the scraps you need to craft and upgrade equipment, vehicles and weapons ~ your lifelines in this unforgiving setting. With the ability to construct the ultimate war vehicle by choosing from dozens of customizable parts and upgrade combinations and arming your vehicle with a slew of deadly weapons, you can annihilate enemy vehicles in dynamic, physics-based vehicular combat. As you explore the vast, open-world environment of the Wasteland, take on unique missions and side quests, eliminate eccentric bandits and battle savage gangs. There's only one thing to live for now ~ revenge.

Better Than Expected

Admittedly, I came to this game later than most, due to it sharing a release date with Metal Gear Solid 5. However, once I did, I found myself pleasantly surprised (probably because I thought its release on the same day as MGS5 was symbolic of Avalanche/WB knowing that the game was subpar). The games tries for an open world feel, with many missions to complete and things to collect. However, despite that, the world seems pretty barren, which I guess fits, given the universe/backstory. As for the gameplay, the car combat as well as the hand to hand combat (which is reminiscent of Rocksteady's Batman games) is solidly done. Definitely worth a playthrough for $30 or less.

The ominous thud of an AT-AT stomping down. Rebel forces firing blasters. Imperial speeder bikes zipping by. Intense dogfights between squadrons of X-wings and TIE fighters filling the skies. Immerse yourself in the epic Star Wars battles you've always dreamed of and create new heroic moments of your own in Star Wars Battlefront

Great Game But Limited Content

Verified Purchase:Yes
Capitalizing on the recent release of The Force Awakens, Star Wars Battlefront takes the Star Wars universe and creates a new, visually amazing experience for current generation hardware owners. Everything from the visuals to the sound design has been crafted expertly by developer Dice to draw the player into the world.
However, the game lacks a single player campaign and is multiplayer only, with only four maps available at launch. As a result, what seems like an exciting experience soon begins to wear thin, as you see all there is to see in the first few days of playing. Of course, EA is happy to sell you a season pass with additional content, and for those who love the limited content the core game has to offer, it might be a good purchase. However, for the majority of gamers still on the fence about this game, I would recommend waiting until the inevitable 'complete' edition comes out.

Interesting Foray Into Asymmetrical Multiplayer

Posted by: flooderdooden

Verified Purchase:Yes
Admittedly, I've come to this game later than most, which may affect my overall opinion of it, especially since it's an online-only game. The core concept of having one incredibly strong monster facing off against multiple hunters attempting to put it down seems novel, but the reality is that the team of hunters, being weaker, can only win through teamwork and knowing their roles to successfully bring down the monster. That said, I would recommend this game to those who can wrangle together a team of friends who likewise have a shared interest in this game. If you play with randoms, you may find the experience frustrating at times. Also, it must be said that there's a good bit of additional content locked behind the DLC paywall, so that might be a deterrent for some as well. As a final consideration, with the game being online-only, you will find that as the game continues to age, its community will continue to dwindle accordingly. In this brave new world of online-only console games, it's a factor to consider in terms of a game's overall value, as the skill level of the remaining participants, combined with the diminished community, could create conditions that are less than fun for the new initiate.

Kojima Productions ushers in a new era for the Metal Gear Solid V franchise with its newest chapter ~ Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain ~ which is set nine years after the fall of Mother Base and the other events in Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes. The game resumes the storyline in 1984 with the Cold War as the bleak, fear-inducing backdrop, which continues to shape an impending global crisis that potentially cannot be averted. After lying dead to the world in a near-decade-long coma, you finally awaken as Snake, a.k.a. Big Boss, filled with the thirst for revenge.Set off in pursuit of the shadow group, XOF, as Snake in The Phantom Pain, which features an open-world design, giving you ultimate tactical freedom in carrying out your missions and progressing through the game. Thanks to the Fox Engine, you can enjoy cutting-edge visual technology with photorealistic graphics and cinema-quality storytelling, making it feel as if you're truly part of the action. Delve into the dark nature of combat, exploring intense themes, such as the psychology of warfare and the resulting atrocities. Showcase your skills of stealth in Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.

If you love a game that provides the possibilities of completing missions/objectives in completely different ways, Metal Gear Solid V is not to be missed. While I wouldn't recommend the story for those who haven't already immersed themselves in earlier games, the actual gameplay and enemy AI is top notch. It certainly will be on a good number of the GOTY lists at the end of this year, and rightfully so.
