"I dont feel confident enough to predict Ishin or Yakuza 0, but I do think Yakuza 6 will go westward. For Japanese console games, PS4 is where the money is to be made. Nippon Ichi made Disgaea 5 a PS4 exclusive with the worldwide market in mind, and I suspect Sega is doing something similar with Yakuza 6. Thatd be magical if localization happened within a month or three of the JP release, but I know that might be asking a bit much." -PSLS

At its heart, Phantom Pain is a great action game, or a great stealth game, depending on how you want to play it. The sandbox design is amazing and the freedom it gives you is exhilarating.

Amid all the noise and squabbling and braying of the internet, there's been many a legitimate complaint lobbed at Destiny over the last year. The lack of content at launch meant it wasn't long before players began to feel the rinse-repeat cycle.; the two DLCs in year one didn't quite refresh the game like many hoped; the Light system felt unfair as players desperately clung to the hope the lottery would shine favourably upon them in the latest loot drop. The Taken King takes many steps to addressing these issues, with a new experience system and consistent item rewards that thankfully make the player feel like they're no longer beholden to lady luck to progress. While the core campaign may end all too soon, there's enough postgame content to remove a large chunk of the grind that hampered the original Destiny experience. This is a significant step forward for Destiny, and leaves players with hope for what the game could become.

Jamie from LzyGmrs writes : "As always, those new to the series might have a hard time understanding the back story of Metal Gear Solid, it's overly complex plot involving, politics, war, hypocrisy, and cleavage, leaving some scratching their heads. The Phantom Pain has an ample supply of all that, but toned back following criticism from the community on its particularly heavy delivery. Instead there's a more balanced mix that hangs on the edge of being serious and comically outrageous. You see this throughout, from inflatable soldiers used as decoys, horses pooping on command, to a more satisfying use of the good ol' cardboard box, the fun is there but doesn't trample over the dark serious nature of the game."
