3 Up, 3 Down – The Best (and Worst) Games from March 2017

The Worst

Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands

Granted, this isn’t so much the “worst” game from the past month but it is more the most disappointing game from March 2017. After such a long hiatus, we expected more from the Ghost Recon franchise. In the end, Wildlands is a game that is hurt by its own ambition. Ghost Recon should have gone back to its tactical roots. It’s blend of genres and ambitious open world creates an experience that doesn’t have an identity and just isn’t all that interesting. As our reviewer said: “Nothing fits together as well as it should, and it all results in one very disappointing package.”

Troll and I

Troll and I is a game that could have done a better job in the story telling department. We expected a deeply emotional experience with a strong narrative. Instead, this Tomb Raider clone is lacking in nearly every department. When you consider they are charging AAA price for the game, this experience lacks a ton of depth. At best the game should be around $20.00 bucks. Do yourself a favor and purchase any of the new Tomb Raider games for less than you’d be paying if you bought Troll and I.

Dying Reborn VR

Dying Reborn VR managed to score one of the lowest review scores we have ever given a game. A 15/100 is about as bad as it gets. This cruel joke of game is visually awful, and the gameplay is downright horrendous. Our man Tyler said: “Visually it looks like a poor imitation of itself, as lighting and image quality pale in comparison to the regular version, and the gameplay isn’t enhanced in the slightest. Throw in the fact that it just ends before any of the plot gets explained, and you have one of the biggest wastes of money on the system. The fact that this game made it to the PlayStation Store is truly an embarrassment for all parties involved.”
