I reviewed both Costume Quest 2 and Max: The Curse of Brotherhood. I thought it was interesting that the second game is actually a sequel to a DS game called Max and the Magic Marker.
LEGO Jurassic World is actually one of the funnier LEGO games I've reviewed. LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens is also pretty funny, too.
Right now I'm not really playing anything worth mentioning, just a bunch of dinky games I'm reviewing. There just isn't anything good coming out until September.
I'll wait until Nintendo announces something officially before I get excited about anything. I do wish they would've at least said a litlle smidgeon about the NX at E3, though.
Speaking of Nintendo news, here's an article that I just posted that you might be interested in:

If Lara Croft had a pink dinosaur sidekick who threw cupcakes at bad guys, I'd be more interested in the Tomb Raider games.
For a while, I was reviewing a lot of Disney-made games. But then I lost my PR contact for them. I don't know why I didn't review this one. I guess it just didn't appeal to me.
Yeah! You should play that Pocket Card Jockey game! I love it!
The Disney game looks cool, but I've played plenty of those match-three games. I like that Kermit the Frog is in it, though.
The Sonic Mania game looks like they're taking the Mega Man 9 and 10 approach. Sonic Mania looks like it might have some promise, though.
I think if SEGA wants a GOOD 2-D Sonic game, they need to hire the folks who made Freedom Planet.
Anyone else excited that Namco just announced Pac-Man Championship Edition 2? Anyone?
I just wrote a blog about the Vita a week and a half ago!
Also, it may not be Secret of Mana, but I did just review Adventures of Mana on the Vita recently:

And I'm with you. While I did play RPGs on the NES like Final Fantasy and Dragon Warrior, it wasn't until FF4 on the SNES that I was really drawn into the genre. After that, I was all about Square in the 16-bit days.
Yeah hopefully you'll get a chance to download that Pocket Card Jockey. I really liked it.
Just know that Skylanders figures won't work with Battlecast. Only the cards will.
