Critics Consensus:Amnesia:A Machine For Pigs

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is the new long awaited Amnesia!
Amnesia was a breakthrough horror hit released just at the end of 2010 and has then since raised a generous cult following thanks to youtuber's like Pewdiepie and MARKplier. A sequel was finally announced last year but is it worth the wait?
Amnesia:A Machine For Pigs has been getting very mixed reviews ranging from a 37\100 from ActionTrip to a 91\100 on Multiplayer.it. Maybe it's because it's a very ambitious game and more flawed than the original. The level design could be better but the storyline will keep you in. Unfortunately it's very short clocking at 4 hours.
Overall only get this if you want to.
Amnesia:A Machine For Pigs is rated M.

Critics Consensus:NHL 14

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is the new NHL!
All the big sports games are released in the next couple of weeks such as NHL 14,Pro Evolution Soccer 2014,FIFA 14 and more. I know you porbably don't have enough money to shell 60 dollars when each one of these comes out so let's give the verdict on NHL 14.
NHL 14 is another amazing installment. Surprisingly the NHL series is one of the best sports sims to date beating Madden and NCAA in Metacritic averages. It's a shame that more people don't play it. It's insanely worth it due to it's great physics engine,realistic graphics and commentary and most importantly of all great Canadian fun. (Cited:EGM,Post Arcade,Canadian Online Gamers)
Overall get this game if you love hockey but wait if you can only buy one of these regular sports anthologies.
NHL 14 is rated E.

Critics Consensus:Riddick

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is the new Riddick reboot!
Vin Diesel is now a powerhouse because of the Fast & The Furious franchise but before that he was known for such movies as Riddick and Saving Private Ryan. Now as Universal is rebooting Riddick let's see if it is maybe better than the original. (The original does not hold up that well)
Unfortunately not. While Riddick is not a horrible movie it is certainly not one to reinvigorate the franchise. Well Vin Diesel is still a badass as The Guardian stated the film's writing can get a little bit dry and bland with cheap special effects as Las Vegas Weekly said. Riddick is a meh movie. 
So overall only see this if you really want to.
Riddick is rated R.

Critics Consensus:Diablo 3 (Console)

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is the Diablo 3 console port!
Diablo 3 was supposed to be a behemoth and it was. Well sort of. If Error Code 43 was gone  and PvP were included it could have been played to this day. It was but still not the giant surprise everybody expected. Now that Diablo 3 is on console will it fix those problems?
Apparently yes to critics. Diablo 3 holds a 86 for the Xbox 360 version and a 85 for Playstation 3. GameInformer praised it's new control scheme and the insanely fun four player co-op and less online hurdles it seems that if you ever were going to get Diablo 3 this is definitely the version to get, You will not regret it.
Overall get this game.
Diablo 3 is rated M.

Critics Consensus:Rayman Legends

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is the new Rayman!

Rayman Origins was a success in many ways and is even known as one of the best platformers of all time. Unfortunately it did not do to well in sales but for some reason Ubisoft is making another one. Oh Ubisoft I can't stay mad at you. Even though i'm still waiting for Beyond Good And Evil 2.
Rayman Legends is near perfect according to many critics such as VideoGamerTV, Cubed3, and Gaming Trend. It's not the amazement that Origins was and they have scaled down the difficulty a little bit but the game is some of the best platformer co-op in generations and it looks beautiful. Also people are saying that this is becoming the next Mario and you can't get beat with the new Kung Foot mode.
Overall get this game now.
Rayman Legends is rated E10+.
