The apocalypse isn’t fun, and this game series has pounded that into my mind multiple times. If you’ve played the previous episodes in this season, yes, you really should buy this final episode. If you’re still holding out for season two, do yourself a favor and pick it up. It’s a tragic, surprising and entertaining ride.

Still, if players can get past that, there is a solid game of golf to be had here. The swing mechanics are excellent, and the course editor is second to none. I just wish there was more of a sense of progression to the core game. As it stands it is expensive, and can sometimes feel like a tech demo fleshed out with menus.

I can’t recommend it enough for even the most jaded gamer. I have spent countless hours with the title, and still play it months after release, which is more than I can say for almost every shooter ever released on a console. The rush of games is coming, but before you get lost in a sea of endless releases, you should definitely check out this lovable third-person shooter.

New modes and other features will come in time, but the most important parts of Madden 15 are fixing the mistakes made by past iterations, and this year’s game does that. Football fans need not worry, it is time once again for the NFL season to begin. Madden NFL 15 will easily keep you engaged for months to come.

It’s certainly disappointing to see the poorly devised debt system and lack of new areas hold back an otherwise great title filled with terrific combat mechanics and a fun cast of characters. Still, even with all its rather glaring flaws, it’s still well worth checking out. That’s especially so for the fans of the original, who will surely love all the bits of fan service Xilla 2 has to offer.

I’m not saying Surgeon Simulator is a bad game. I mean, it is, but it’s supposed to be. The game is interesting in multiple ways, but in the end, I found myself enjoying about three hours of it and then deciding I didn’t have the time or the patience to do some of the later surgeries. Still, it is a decently fun time running through it for the first time. Just keep in mind, the novelty wears off faster than the anesthesia.

Those starving for games to play on the new consoles owe it to themselves to check out this package before the fall rush gets into full swing. The journey through the Metro is more than worth the price of admission, plus the visuals are great at showcasing the new hardware. I am really looking forward to what 4A Games has in store next.

As I was playing through Mega Coin Squad, I felt as though I was playing a free game I downloaded off the App store on my phone while I was bored on the toilet. Why I felt that way isn’t entirely clear but in that scenario, I would’ve most likely deleted the game from my phone as I was flushing the toilet.

If you haven’t played Diablo III before and are interested, do yourself a favor and get this. You will have at least 30 hours if not more just in the main content. Diablo III was a fantastic game to begin with, and Blizzard has just refined it once again, making this the best version to have.

Risen 3 features some improvements over the first two games. The combat is still cumbersome at times mainly due to the targeting and camera, but the story, customizations and characters are all very enjoyable. Be it upgrading my intimidate to scare information out of an NPC or raining down fire on a group of unsuspecting enemies with a magic spell, Risen 3 is very enjoyable and full of content.
