When I saw Railway Empire from Kalypso - the same company behind the Tropico series - I knew the game was going to be relatively good. That being said, I always have a few reservations about playing tycoon and simulation style titles on a console, using a controller. More than half the time, the controller just cannot replicate the feel of the mouse and keyboard, and many games in this style fall flat because of pure controls. After only a few hours with Railway Empire, however, and I can safely say that this title does not suffer from that in any way.

Acorn Tactics has been on my radar ever since it was announced. For one, I really like the developer who is handling the game. I thought his game Factotum was really good on the Wii U.

Acorn Tactics looks like it’ll be a very good addition to the Nintendo Switch…

Mario Party titles have been on the downswing in recent years, with things beginning to fall off the rails around Mario Party 6 or 7. While the final three installments of the franchise have still been great fun - and we reviewed them all fairly well - there was still something missing that the previous titles all had.

When compared to any other home party title, Mario Party has some of the best - if not these best - mini games available, and to ...

Odyssey spans the history of the whole series, from the 80s to today. And it is so, so good!
