 |  | | From Niko Silvester, your About Video Games Editor | | | Last week saw the release of one of the year’s most anticipated games, but as Eric found out, the reality may not live up to the hype. Charles was also a little disappointed that the Wii U’s controls were not taken better advantage of in the game he played, and Nadia looks at game that’s getting a nice port but might disappoint if it isn’t available outside of Japan. Meanwhile, Brian found the game he reviewed really only disappointing in comparison to its own predecessor, Michael picks out some horror games that won’t disappoint at all, and Brittany was somewhat let down by a “cheap thrill ride.” | | | | | Sign up for more free newsletters: | | | | | It seems like everyone was raving about ‘Destiny,’ but since the game’s release, little notes of doubt have crept in.
