• WWE 2K25 – Xbox Series X Review

    To be frank: this is what you hope to see in an annually released game. More features and improvements across the board combine to make it better than ever. WWE 2K25 is exactly that – bigger and better than ever.

  • Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered - PC Review

    The year was 1996 when I first heard about Tomb Raider. I didn't have a Playstation, nor was I any sort of adept at using those controllers. However I did enjoy watching my friend play them on his PS...

  • Microtopia - PC Review

    Microtopia is a neat game where players grow a new kind of colony, the kind that is run by robotic ants. Now if an automation game where you get to control robotic ants isn't an interesting one, you've been living under a rock.

  • Maliki: Poison of the Past - PC Preview

    Hey there, and welcome to a preview of a new title that’s now wormed it’s way into my wishlist. Maliki: Poison of the Past is a really neat looking title that draws from the graphic novel series Maliki.

  • Space Engineers 2 - PC Preview

    Keen Software House (Keen) has recently launched Space Engineers 2 (SE2) into early access with a polished communication campaign featuring YouTube influencer previews, snappy teasers and a road map using the ‘vertical slice’ concept to show the intended path between initial early access availability and final release.

  • Ever 17: The Out of Infinity - Nintendo Switch Review

    I've got a good one for ya! An awkward teen, an amnesiac kid, a grumpy Lolita, a bratty child (not really), a hacker, an oblivious employee and an AI walk into an underwater bio-dome---

  • ZPF - PC Preview

    ZPF is a new shoot-'em-up game that looks, sounds and plays like a Sega Genesis game. The demo I played was short with three levels and three different heroes (ships) each with their own play style.

  • Atelier Yumia: The Alchemist of Memories & the Envisioned Land - PS5 Review

    If there's one series that keeps me excited for every new release, it's Gust's Atelier series. As much as things change over the years, the core staple of the series remains the same. It's about alchemy...

  • Rise of the Ronin - PC Review

    Set in the Bakumatsu-era in Japan, Rise of the Ronin follows the path of a Veiled Edge, a unique paired swordsmen's technique where you play one half of a pair of sword-slinging ronin called Blade Twins.

Sniper Elite 4 - Xbox One Review

Not only am I a pretty big fan of Rebellion, but so is most of the staff here as back in 2014 Chris gave Sniper Elite 3 an excellent 8 out of 10  and a year later nearly every member here at CGR was able to get in on the action of slaying zombie Nazis in the Zombie Army...

For Honor - PS4 Review

In typical Ubisoft fashion, For Honor has received some significant hype over the past year or so. Set in a fictional world full of strife and chaos, choose your Hero from the noble Samurai, the relentless Vikings, or the bloodthirsty Knights and represent your faction in...

Tales of Berseria: A second opinion - Gaming Thoughts

Like our review of the game a week ago, there are some minor spoilers in the following opinion piece. Keep that in mind if you choose to continue reading. I thought that Berseria had a well done script with interesting characters and interactions and one of the best combat...

Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book - PC Review

Atelier Sophie is one of the more recent entries in the “Atelier” series of games from Gust.  The Atelier series of games has been a favorite of mine since Atelier Iris came out for PS2. Admittedly, I haven’t played one since Rorona, which I’ve been meeting to correct....

Nioh - PS4 Review

As of yesterday Nioh will have been out for two weeks. We've played, we've cried and we've been both entertained and frustrated as we've figured out how to move forward. The following is our full review in which I have both mulled over on my own as well as with the thoughts...

Berserk and the Band of the Hawk - PS4 Review

Berserk and the Band of the Hawk is Omega Force's latest Warriors-styled experience based off an anime. The brutal nature of the battlefield feels right at home as you move from one fight to the next with the once-young man named Guts exploring his life through its veritable...

Nights of Azure - PC Review

Nights of Azure originally released for PS4 in North America in early 2016, and now it has received a PC port to bless, or torment, the non-console gamers. Featuring a beautiful art style and soundtrack, Nights of Azure, while incredibly niche, is a soulful tale of love and...

Tales of Berseria - PS4 Review

Tales of Berseria is the long-awaited pseudo-prequel to 2015's Tales of Zestiria (which we loved). Set in the same world, Berseria takes place many centuries prior to the events of Tales of Zestiria, where the world is torn asunder by daemons during a Scarlet Night (which...

Angels With Scaly Wings - PC Review

So when it comes to dating… let’s just say that I don’t really know the first thing. If you really want to confirm? You just need to ask Breanna. We never really dated and then suddenly it's almost five years later that we have been living together. So when it comes to a...

Favorite female characters in video games (Part 2) - Gaming Thoughts

If there’s anything that can be said about video games over the years is that we can get attached to the coolest or the strangest characters at times. While there are plenty of awesome male characters out there, here’s what I consider my top 5 female lineup of sheer bad-assery...

Favorite female characters in video games (Part 1) - Gaming Thoughts

Over the years, there have been a good many video games that featured female characters of note. Some were protagonists, others were antagonists while others fell somewhere in between on the spectrum. Different characters resonate with us for different reasons, and ...

Burnout 3: Takedown - Retro Reflections

I am not a big fan of racing games. On the arcades I used to play shooters, fighters and beat’em ups; I never bought a racer for my PC either. Nevertheless, I thought Burnout 3 could offer me some variety; indeed, it proved to be surprisingly entertaining...

Memorable Music in Gaming #33

Friday is upon us, and that usually means either a Beeps and Beers or a Memorable Music. In this case, it is the latter. I decided to go with a very heavy RPG theme with this edition, most of them a generation back in terms of console hardware...

Digimon World: Next Order - PS4 Review

Fans of the Digimon world will likely enjoy this offering the most. However, this is a slower grind of a game, one that will not appeal to everyone. However, despite the very slow learning curve here, Digimon World: Next Order offers some real depth that I found myself sinking...

Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King - Retro Reflections

I have always been a fan of Japanese role playing games for their magical worlds, lovable characters and friendly combat system. Dragon Quest 8 was in my collection for a long time, waiting for its turn. Finally, one day I decided to try it; and I was amazed...

Time Machine VR - PC / VR Review

More experience (and a educational one at that) than a game, Time Machine VR squanders a great first impression to deliver a title that has some cool ideas and polish. That being said, despite a theme around great depth, the overall gameplay here is pretty shallow...

7th Dragon III Code: VFD - 3DS Review

7th Dragon III Code: VFD is a really interesting throwback to old school turn-based RPGs, that feel right at home with the older Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest games. Code “Very Fancy Durians” is the game that I didn’t know I needed to get me back into turn-based combat. While...

Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth - PS Vita Review

I remember when I was younger, about 17 years younger, I managed to get my hands on Digimon World for the PlayStation. Admittedly, while I did enjoy it, it wasn’t something that particularly held my interest for all that long. I tended to stick to the shows and card game...

Double Dragon IV - PS4 Review

Double Dragon IV clings to its retro inspirations just a little too tightly. Fans of the old 8-bit titles will likely enjoy their romp here for what it is, but Arc System Works could have taken some more chances and delivered a brawler that had more to offer. Instead we get...

Zen Pinball 2: Star Wars Pinball - Rogue One - PS4 Review

Zen Pinball 2: Star Wars Pinball - Rogue One offers us a standalone table instead of a suite of different ones collected around a single theme. Despite only having one table to play, it is an incredibly well-made one that should appease Star Wars fans and pinball fans al...

Dynasty Warriors: Godseekers - PS4 Review

Dynasty Warriors: Godseekers is a guilty pleasure for me, but one I have not been able to get enough of. This is a great twist on the traditional Dynasty Warriors formula, and while the game is not flawless, it is the most fun I have had with a title so far in 2017...
