| - | ***//Batman: The Telltale Series//** (also on: 360, PS3, XB1, PC, mobile) | ||
| - | * Ni Go Zero Ichi: Probably the most fully realized iteration yet of Telltale's one-studio subgenre of visual novels (//The Wolf Among Us// is also a close competitor for that title). Better than the Christopher Nolan movies. | ||

| + | * sleepysmiles: I’m very pleased at the difficulty of this game. It seems like a natural step up from Dark Souls and not an arbitrary one. It’s pleasantly surprising how the simple removal of your block button adds so much tension to each encounter | ||
| + | * wourme: I was sold on Bloodborne the moment I encountered my first student. I still like Demon’s and Dark 1 better, but I’m glad I don’t have to choose and can simply play them all. | ||
| + | * zeno: i’m pretty comfortable with declaring bloodborne the best game i’ve ever played, but it’s interesting how so little of the music does much of anything for me. | ||

| - | ***//Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered//** (also on: PC, XB1) | + | ***//Death Stranding//** (also on: PC)\ |
| - | * 2501: Doesn’t fix what ain’t broken, but truly is one of the most gorgeous remastering jobs out there (as it damn well better be, considering what Activision’s charging for it) and makes the original //CoD4// almost impossible to go back to. I’d even go so far as to say that this aesthetic and technical enhancement is what finally cements //MW1//‘s status as one of the best FPS campaigns of all time. | + | * Tulpa: I played for 2 hours in the middle of someone else's save, and I spent a lot of time learning the controls in the moment, falling down hills, chugging energy drinks and throwing jars full of piss at undead horrors.

| * Ni Go Zero Ichi: It's like //Call of Duty// meets //Zone of the Enders// with a little bit of //Mirror's Edge//. Whoa. I'm hearing a lot of heavy superlatives directed at the campaign and while I don't think it beats out the first two //Modern Warfare//s, it is definitely Good. I like that the game periodically lets you exchange player-controlled snarky banter with your giant killer robot. | * Ni Go Zero Ichi: It's like //Call of Duty// meets //Zone of the Enders// with a little bit of //Mirror's Edge//.

| * Felix: I am better at, and more engaged by, the multi in this than any other FPS since Quake 2. I'd have a hard time articulating what it does so well but it's certainly one of the best big-budget surprises I've had in a very long time. Plus, as everyone says, the campaign is basically perfect (if fundamentally mid-aughts and unambitious in its scope) too. | * Felix: I am better at, and more engaged by, the multi in this than any other FPS since Quake 2.

| - | ***//Uncharted 4: A Thief's End//** | ||
| - | * Ni Go Zero Ichi: Better than //Uncharted 3// but not-better than //Uncharted 2//. It's cool that there are actual large areas now instead of just fancy-dressed corridors. I wish there were fewer sequences where you're not really doing anything interesting because the game is busy conveying the narrative, because as crackly-crispy as the dialogue is and as many interesting new ways as Naughty Dog comes up with to take advantage of the medium, the actual plot and storytelling would still barely pass muster as a straight-to-video //National Treasure// sequel. | ||
