Review Round-Up - January 2016

A trio of plumbers lead SuperPhillip Central's first month of reviews for 2016.

The first month of the new year brought five new reviews to SuperPhillip Central. One of these was very special, as it was SuperPhillip Central's first go at an iOS and Steam game. Before I get ahead of myself, though, let's look at the four games that preceded it.

I kicked off the new year with a Better Late Than Never review of the PlayStation Vita's Ys: Memories of Celceta, grinding its way to a B+. Then I went even further back in time to race with Crash Bandicoot and friends in Crash Nitro Kart, racing its way to a B. Following that were the robots in disguise with Transformers: Devastation (B). SPC's Game of the Month came next with an A- score for Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam. Finally, SPC's first iOS and Steam review, Oceanhorn: Monster of Uncharted Seas, delivered an epic tale and received a B for its effort.

February is set to also be a big month with SPC's 650th published review. I wonder what game will get the honor!

Ys: Memories of Celceta (Vita) - B+
Crash Nitro Kart (PS2, GCN, XBX) - B
Transformers: Devastation (PS4, XONE, PS3, 360) - B
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (3DS) - A-
Oceanhorn: Monster of Uncharted Seas (iOS, Steam) - B-

Transformers: Devastation was indeed more than meets the eye.
