Critics Consensus:Valiant Hearts:The Great War

Hi! We are Critics Consensus.  We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is the all new artsy Ubisoft game based off of the horrors of war,Valiant Hearts!

Say what you want about Ubisoft and all the controversy surrounding the Watch Dogs hype,lack of female characters,and micro transactions in The Division. Because when these people put their mind to it they can create some amazing beautiful stuff. First we got Rayman Legends. Next was Child Of Light. And now Valiant Hearts.

Valiant Hearts:The Great War is an art piece. Digitally Downloaded praised how it took a new direction of how war is portrayed in games and how it is really never fun and Eurogamer Italy praised how the game also took a spin at human nature. It's also received and 82 on Metacritic and 3 9\10s. This game is an artistic masterpiece to say the least and we should support Ubisoft to make more games like this. So go buy it right now.

Yes I mean now. Steam,XBLA,PSN whatever. Now is the time.

Valiant Hearts:The Great War is rated T.

Critics Consensus:Tiny Brains

Hi! We are Critics Consensus.  We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is the all new co-op puzzle platformer Tiny Brains!

Tiny Brains was one of the titles Sony deliberately featured during their E3 press conference. It was a puzzle platformer that was heavily hyped and set to be the best 2013 co-op experience of the PS4. Unfortunately it got delayed from the launch and disappeared. But now it's back out of nowhere and let's check if it's any good and what Sony promised!
Tiny Brains is about a bunch of lab rats trying to solve complex puzzles with friends! And we all know how Trine went. It's not a Scott Pilgrim or Castle Crashers by any means as stated by Joystiq but it's still a fun co-op experience that is well worth the money. Only problem is it's a little bit on the short side.
Overall only get Tiny Brains if you want to.
Tiny Brains is rated E10+.

Critics Consensus: Ibb And Obb

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is a new puzzle platformer called Ibb and Obb similar to the XBLA great Ilomilo!

The Xbox Live Marketplace is home to many many great games and is one of the main reasons to buy a Xbox 360. Playstation Network however has only a handful of amazing games such as Journey. But will Ibb and Obb be PSN's Braid? Let's find out.
Ibb and Obb is a co-op puzzle platformer in which the two characters use gravity to solve complex situations around the game world.  This all sounds cool but the problem is Ibb and Obb is not executed very well. GameInformer said that the single player was painstaking and some of the level design in co-op levels was infuriating but not all is bad. GamesBeat gave Ibb and Obb a 82 for it's creative art design.
Overall only get this game if you want to.
Ibb and Obb is rated E.

Critics Consensus:Puddle

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is Puddle a port of the 2012 game that everybody forgot.

Puddle got very negative reception upon it's release. It was probably because it was so hard and meant for another system. Well Konami made the easy decision to port Puddle over to the WiiU. Let's see if it holds up.
The good news is that it is not as horrible as the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 versions because the controls were so bad but, it has no new features coming to the WiiU and the difficulty is still the same as ReviewsOnTheRun complained.
Overall I would not recommend this one.
Puddle is rated T.

Critics Consensus:Wreckateer

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is Wreckateer a new downloadable Kinect game.

Microsoft usually delivers strong downloadable titles for their promotional sales like Summer Of Arcade. Kinect has not gotten the best critical reception and while Wreckateer is not a wreck it is better than slightly mediocre. Most critics called the game a good Kinect game but not a good game overall for example Vandal Online and Eurogamer Spain stated that in their review. The problems about Wreckateer is that the level design needs to be better as well with the clunky Kinect controls as GameRevolution and Mondo Xbox exclaimed.  So if you can not control a game what is there to it?
Overall do not get this game but if you have a Kinect and only used it to play Dance Central you should get this.


Wreckateer is rated E10+.

Critics Consensus: Quantum Conundrum

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular daily critics opinion for the newest video games and movies! Today it is Quantum Conundrum the spiritual successor to Portal.

When Portal 2 was released in 2011 it had critical acclaim from every single critic. So when a game comes out directed by the person who had a main part on working the original Portal we hope that it will be amazing. Thankfully yes. Even though Gaming Nexus complained about the story and writing, Critics were also loving the game left,right, and center-field. Official Xbox Magazine UK praised it's addictive-ness while Gamereactor Sweden stated it had clever puzzles. The best thing about Quantum Conundrum is it's gameplay. And while it does not have the best story if you loved Portal 2 you will love this.
Overall get this game but if you do not want to get it that is fine.


Quantum Conundrum is rated E.

Critics Consensus: Gravity Rush

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular daily critics opinion for the newest video games and movies! Today it is Gravity Rush a new PSVita puzzle platformer with a gravity spinoff.

Sony's silent surprise is here. Gravity Rush it is called. Let's get on it here the Playstation Vita has been struggling a bit. Walking over stones and falling into the ground. Well when gets a 10 out of 10 from Digital Spy, Gamereactor Denmark, and gameblog.fr you know it's good. Gamespot did complain about dull combat and Metro Game Central was made at it's flaws but when a game offers an amazing overall gameplay experience including Gamereactor Denmark stating it as a Game Of The Year contender the game is magical.
Overall get this. This is the reason to get a PSVita.


'Gravity Rush is rated T.
