After finishing Overcooked 2 proper, I didn’t think it could get any more ridiculous. In retrospect, I should have known better, as the Surf ‘n’ Turf DLC that came out last week effortlessly demonstrates Overcooked 2 still has plenty of ideas left in store. Surf ‘n’ Turf adds 12 new levels and three new chefs…
The draw to outsmart and outplay is one of the best things going for Valkyria Chronicles 4.
Mega Man 11 is just as welcoming to new players as it is to old fans, and I can’t recommend it enough to anyone still on the fence about it.
It is easy to understand why the team behind The Messenger was so reluctant to show the 8-bit/16-bit environment mechanics in the trailers.

Be it with the numerous tweaked versions of Street Fighter II in the 1990s or the later enhanced ports of the original Resident Evil, it’s safe to say that they really count on their…
It’s a funny thing to comment on repeated game design notions when it comes to reviewing games. Even more so when the same notion can be used to either compliment or criticize any particular game. I always feel like I’m repeating myself when I talk about how trial and error is used as a gameplay…
