Speaking of online, in my tests I experienced very little bouts of lag. Sadly, the community is certainly not booming with players. It is nice that it is cross platform with PS3, and even cross region, meaning I could play with players all over the world, but it was still light on player base.

Megadimension Neptunia VII is a bubbly game that I could easily see getting worn out with its abundance of releases. However, coming into it as a new player I really enjoyed the ride. There is a ton of content, fan service, and solid RPG mechanics to make it entertaining, if not a bit too cute for my own tastes.

I enjoyed my time with Firewatch and I really cared about both of these people… or characters I should say. More so then most videogame characters and that alone makes Firewatch worthy of playing at least once. Yet I feel that might be the most people ever play this, one and done as once you know the end result, it might be just a tad bit too monotonous to experience again, at least anytime soon.

LEGO Marvel’s Avengers still boasts enormous amounts of content, and those that have not grown tired of the formula will find plenty to justify their money. Still it feels like the series is on autopilot and with LEGO Dimensions still fresh in everyone’s mind it can be hard to justify spending another full sticker price for what feels like a rehash.

The room search function was also quite limited, as I couldn’t even search with the parameter of something simple like “has not started mission yet”. Despite these flaws, Final Fantasy Explorers offers a good time with friends taking on iconic enemies from the FF universe- just don’t expect much of a challenge.

Amazing Princess Sarah is a solid action platformer that is fun to blast through, and for $5 it is hard not to recommend it to fans of the genre. Low replay value aside this is an enjoyable romp, granted you have the patience and skills to finish these treacherous castles.

The Witness is such an interesting game. It is so simple in many ways, but in the end, complex and difficult to master. Puzzle games can be hit or miss with many people. I, for one, found it intriguing and mysterious just like the beautiful island the game takes place on. It’s a game that made me feel dumb as a rock and intelligent as Einstein all in the same moment.

Fortified is a fun little romp for about six or seven hours. After that time, players will have already unlocked most of the traps and weapon upgrades for the four classes that are available. They will start to notice that many traps are reused for each class, but choosing the right load out is essential for matching up with your partners’ load outs.

It has been a long journey for Saturday Morning RPG, starting with Episode One on iOS and now a full-fledged console game (complete with a physical copy if you were lucky enough to snag one). I have adored the game since its inception and am happy to say the console version finally feels like the complete experience.

The one thing Tachyon Project has going for it is its price. $10 isn’t that so much to pay for a game that has a decent amount of content in it. But having played many dual-stick shooters in the past, there is nothing really here that stands out as excellent. Just average.
