I got my hands on the full version of Splatoon 2, and I'm happy to say that so far, it's on track to be at least as good as the original. You can watch the first 15 minutes for yourself below.

Wait. Hear me out. Yes, the first few missions are terrible. Yes, the combat is weird. But once you get past those niggles, Alpha Protocol is one of the best modern RPGs, rivaling even Mass Effect.

Kirby is one of those series you can always count on Nintendo caring about. While it might take years, or decades for a new F-Zero to rise from the grave, there's going to be at least one Kirby game per year to help you wait.
They're not all winners, though. read

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild may have ruined open world games for me.
Why? Because it's so goddamned good, it reveals the flaws in nearly every other open world game ever made.
Here are a few things Breath of the Wild does that absolutely dunk on other open world games. read

I've been playing with Red Hood off and on for the past few weeks since his release and he's... odd. I still can't figure him out. I can't tell if he's an amazing character, or a dud. I can't even tell if he's supposed to be played like a zoner, a rushdown monster, or something in-between.
And that makes me pretty excited for the future of Injustice 2's DLC characters. read

Crash always marched to the beat of a different drum -- but unlike Bubsy, his drum wasn't loaded with explosives, Keith Moon style. He rose above the drove of mascot platformers and literally clawed his way up to stardom. For a bit.
Now Crash is very much a relic of the past, a property that Activision parades out every so often to remind us that he exists. Until this week. read

Gladiolus got his due with his own Final Fantasy XV DLC a few months back, and we all kind of stumbled through it.
Coasting by on the fumes of XV's core mechanics, the idea of witnessing a brief gaiden that ultimately ended up lacking an impact on the narrative just didn't feel like add-on material. Prompto's gun-fever lore-heavy mission in an arctic sandbox though? A little more so. read
