The Last Tinker is not going to give action fans and people looking for a challenge a ton, but it does offer up a rather fun and interesting game that has both a great art style and a nice, kid-friendly story at a casual pace. Still, for the price they’re charging on Steam, it is a bit much, but not by much.

MLB 14: The Show is a fantastic first offering on a new platform. I am impressed that every single feature is included, and the visuals are truly stunning. This may be the only baseball game in town, but it’s also still the best. I really look forward to seeing what the team at SCEA San Diego can do with the franchise as the PS4 matures.

For $5, players can get a little memorization romp with some good music and a level editor for a game with a simple concept and controls. Players wanting to create their own levels can get more out of it than the average player, but for five dollars, it’s a bad deal for how long it will actually take to complete the levels without using checkpoints.

I wished I had a PC install. What great tragedy we must endure. On the hasty road to be the saviour. The journey was bountiful. Too bad the end is pitiful. For the price of a lunch and dessert. You can own this great effort. I wholeheartedly recommend. So spend! Don’t follow the trend. Trust me, I’m your friend.

Given the importance of netplay in fighting games in this day and age, to see it implemented so poorly was disheartening. While JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: All Star absolutely looks the part, it falls short of its potential with its poor implementation of the story mode and online multiplayer.

While I don’t know why anyone would want to play without the puzzles, even those who do will find themselves seeking them out for the extra information they provide. Ether One is a sharp, unique game that deals with a tragic subject in an empathetic way, and it’s definitely worth checking out.

Still, I had fun playing this game. While I can wholeheartedly say that paying $60 for what Beenox crafted here is definitely over the top, I wouldn’t recommend against picking it up in the $20-$30 range. It is still fun to swing around the city, and some portions really shine, but a full-fledged, full-price experience Amazing Spider-Man 2 is certainly not.

For pinball fans looking for more, this pack is quite the steal. Of course, Star Wars fans will get the most out of it, but even with the objectives being a little obscure, the casual pinball players can have a ton of fun. There’s a good amount of content to have the pinball wizards playing for a long while. Zen Studios said they were bringing more tables, and they delivered.

There is a lot to love about Mario Golf: World Tour. For those that really enjoy the more light-hearted approach to golf that games like this and Hot Shots provide, this is a no-brainer. World Tour does so much right and mixing it with the familiar Nintendo universe seals the deal. Anyone with a 3DS has yet another must-own title to pick up for the handheld.

While there were some creative puzzles sprinkled throughout its massive levels, I never felt like I was making any real progress even as the little numbers next my gems grew. Collecting things for the sake of collecting them isn’t a very compelling reason, and given there isn’t much more to Full Bore than that, it ends up being a decent incomplete puzzle platformer and not much more.
