avatar legends: the fighting game is a great 2D fighter and the best avatar game yet

it's just that it's not THE dream avatar game, as it falls short in the single player and presentation departments

i adore @Denshattack for being so irreverent and fun and for having so, so much heart

it's a benchmark for other games in the genre - 3D platformers - and a must-play this year

DRAGON BALL XENOVERSE 3 looks great!

the combat seems tried and true, but the story, set in Age 1000, the furthest point in the timeline, is poised to break new ground for the series

europa universalis V is not the greatest entry in this grand strategy franchise yet, but, given some more content and fine-tuning, it might just achieve that status one day
