167 reviewsThe Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD reviewed by Travis Northup on Nintendo Switch. This HD remaster is a fantastic Zelda adventure that's aged like wine, even if Wii-era motion controls still aren't great and its new joystick controls don't do much to help.
The first chapter's remaster removes many – but not all – of the caveats from my strong recommendation to revisit BioWare's epic sci-fi RPG from the beginning (or to play it for the first time).
It has some slapstick ultraviolent humor going for it, but it's nowhere near as consistently funny as it is consistently janky to control.
A stealth-action game that rewards sloppiness over cunning. That can be fun, but it also badly needs more content.
A strong Irish story and a few interesting battles amid a sea of run-of-the-mill recycled quests make Wrath of the Druids worth a return trip to Assassin's Creed Valhalla.
A leaner but meaner follow-up to one of the best ever open-world survival games.
A genuinely engrossing and increasingly combat-heavy continuation of the Ethan Winters story.
Returnal's runs are too long for their own good, but the moment-to-moment action is phenomenal in this surprisingly lengthy and deep third-person shooter roguelike
This remaster makes a grand old game feel less old – but it doesn't make it feel new again.
A photography game with occasionally clunky progression, but which is eager to show off its delightful subjects and let them surprise you.
MotoGP 21 is a good year for new riders to hop on but it hasn't particularly distanced itself much from MotoGP 20.
NieR Replicant is an action RPG with obvious flaws involving outdated quest design and repetitive combat, but those flaws are easily forgiven in light of its incredible characters, along with its unconventional and emotionally resonant story.
This isn't the generational leap forward we might've expected following a new console launch, but it's still the best baseball sim you can play on any platform.
Our final review of Outriders, the co-op shooter from People Can Fly.
Fast and competitive gameplay keeps it fun even if we’re confined to just one maze.
An excellent remake with charm, challenge... and loads of bugs.
The classic collectible card game’s action RPG adaptation loses something in translation.
Arkham Horror: Mother's Embrace's simple combat and uninspired "detective" work won't sate your Lovecraftian hunger.
The Final Cut elevates Disco Elysium from an already phenomenal RPG to a true must-play masterpiece.
All the charm in the universe couldn't save Balan Wonderworld’s half-baked platforming and ill-advised one-button design from being a complete bore.
