Tempest 4000 Review
Tempest 4000 is a new edition of a classic Atari staple. It provides a great update in graphics and music, but changing the gameplay just wouldn’t be Tempest. Ryan Johnson at The Gamer’s Lounge runs it through the motions to see if it’s worth your time.
Read MoreTouhou: Azure Reflections Review
Touhou: Azure Reflections continues the series’ history of insane bullet-hell shooter, with a countless amount of bullets raining down. The Shrine Maiden must go forth again to find and eliminate the origin of the Red Mist.
Read MoreMegadimension Neptunia VIIR Review
Megadimension Neptunia VIIR may sound like a sequel to a game from two years ago, and chronologically that would make sense. Instead, it’s a rehash of the previous game with some bonus VR support and a little bit of tweaking to the base battle system. It is improved, but is it enough for someone who’s mastered the original release to double dip?
Read MoreSave the Ninja Clan (Vita) Review
Save the Ninja Clan is an indie game in the vein of Super Meat Boy in which you have to save your ninja friends. If you don't want to do that, you can always annoy the programmer of the game through some meta-jokes as you find his bugs.
Read MoreNight Trap: 25th Anniversary Review
Night Trap is a game that most modern gamers will know, but those born after the ESRB was initiated don't know it's history. The 25th Anniversary release gives new gamers a chance to see what the big deal was about, but is it worth revisiting? Ryan Johnson of The Gamer's Lounge investigates.
Read MoreGod Wars: Future Past Review
God Wars: Future Past will pull you back to the great year of 1998 for tactical RPGs. Whether they tried or not, Kadokawa Games has crafted a game that truly feels like a new Final Fantasy Tactics, and they should be loved all the more for it. A game set in historic Japan with storyline that lets you meet all of the classic myriad gods, you will spend excessive time crafting your perfect army to take their turns dealing out pain and finding a more peaceful way to appease the gods than sacrifice.
Read MoreAnoxemia Review
Indie games try to pull on your feelings, quite often of dread and horror. In this game, the biggest horror Ryan Johnson at The Gamer's Lounge faced is the entirety of a game being made into what he sees as an underwater rescue mission resource management simulator. Might hit a good nerve for someone, but not for this particular review.
Read MoreDanganronpa 1-2 Reload Review
Danganronpa has been around for quite a while, originally landing on Japanese PSP's in 2010.

Ryan Johnson at The Gamer's Lounge was able to go through and tell you whether you should take another trip to Hope's Peak Academy.
Read MoreBlue Rider (PS4) Review
Blue Rider is a game that harkens back to the classic quarter munching days. Who cares about plotline, you're a blue dude in a ship and there are robots to kill! This bullet-hell shooter has quite a lot going for it if you can get over a few design flaws. Ryan Johnson of The Gamer's Lounge looks into this title for you.
Read MoreSword Art Online: Hollow Realization Review
Sword Art Online: Hollow Realization is an MMO for people who don't have time for MMO's. A SPORPG (Single Player MMO??) with Online elements (umm...), it gets a little confusing, but it all makes perfect sense for people steeped in the lore. Ryan Johnson at The Gamer's Lounge takes a dip in the water and sees if someone new to the series can truly enjoy this unique experience.
Read MoreHatsune Miku: Project DIVA X Review

With her catchy tunes and upbeat music, Miku has captured the heart of many fans around the world. This rhythm game allows you to play along with her, with your button presses helping Miku hit the notes. The presentation is unique, but will Miku capture the hearts of your average fan outside of Japan? Ryan Johnson at The Gamer's Lounge investigates.
Read MoreFairy Fencer F: Advent Dark Force Review
A mere two years ago, Fairy Fencer F was released on the PS3. It is now being remastered and brought back with a release on the PS4, bigger and better than before. A lot has been added to the game since the first release. Lovers of the first release will find a lot to appreciate, as the original's hindrances have been attended to, but does that make it a great game? Ryan at The Gamer's Lounge investigates.
Read MoreDying Light: The Following Review
Dying Light's The Following expansion recently dropped, with the new Enhanced Edition replacing the original title, boasting all of the downloadable content.

Read MoreFrozen Free Fall: Snowball Fight Review
Frozen Free Fall: Snowball Fight takes the match-three freemium mold and brings it to home consoles with a two-player versus twist. Is this enough to make you want to build a snowman again, or should you just let it go? Ryan Johnson of The Gamer's Lounge weighs in.
Read MoreShiftlings Review (PS4)
Shiftlings is a new digital game that places you in charge of a couple of aliens tasked with fixing things. Little do they know that they are the stars of a highly popular TV show, and a happy accident with a bottle of cola results in a strangely comedic play mechanic that has you (with a friend, if you desire) to think your way from Point A to Point B.
