Mick Fraser: "The Taken King is the update that has finally allowed Bungie to redeem themselves for a year of near-misses, disappointments, odd decisions and outright missteps. Im not simply talking about the fundamental changes, either, but the small touches that should have been there from the start, that actually now make vanilla Destiny look like the unfinished extended beta that the naysayers have been calling it for the last twelve months."
Ben at GameSpew writes: "Guild Wars, World of Warcraft, Neverwinter The list of RPGs Ive played and thoroughly enjoyed throughout my life goes on, but none will ever amount to Biowares Dragon Age.
Come, my friends, as we embark on a journey across the Amaranthine Ocean to explore the wonders of Thedas! Pull up a seat in Kirkwalls Hanged Man tavern and take heed to one of Varrics tales, or perhaps pick up some fine crafts direct from Orzammar!"

Phil writes, "The title screen-- it's been with us for countless decades now. Whenever there is a game, there is a screen that shows what the name of it is. For the first time on SuperPhillip Central, we'll be taking a look at some of the best title screens in gaming history. Since there are so many good ones to choose from, this is but part one of what I plan to be a long-running series. Whether they're animated, offer some interaction, or are just plain cool looking, these title screens are what SuperPhillip Central considers to be the absolute best of a big bunch."

"In a strange way, The Phantom Pain turns out to be quite an apt description for this game. Were profoundly aware theres something missing here, and its possible we wont be truly satisfied. There are a few glaring issues in The Phantom Pain that could have sunk it, but in the end the incredible sandbox gameplay is just too good to dismiss. The series has always been about bombastic plots and super-refined gameplay, so the sting here is that Kojimas swan song had to be compromised for the worse. Dont get me wrong: The Phantom Pain is a brilliant game Im just grieving what could have been."
