EDGE: "Guacamelee possibly sticks too rigidly to its chosen template: Drinkbox’s game is Metroidvania to the core in its reliable dispensing of new skills and the way it sends players ricocheting from one side of the map to next, and as such Guacamelee rarely surprises. It’s a solid formula, of course, and like its wrestler star Drinkbox’s game is dressed up luridly and with flair – but this entertaining romp is more about the costume than what’s beneath it."
The PS4 has a killer roster of incredible platformers. Ranging from simple 2D platformers to vibrant 3D platforming games.
No mention of Astrobot on the VR, one of the best platform titles Sony have put out
Guacamelee is an amazing Metroidvania series with a fun story and beautiful graphics. Check out Jason's Nindie Spotlight on this gem that highlights its unique art style and fantastic boss fights..

Hollow Knight is really good. GreenPath was my favorite area of the game.
Guacamelee 1 was also good. I got to check out G2.
I highly recommend TimeSpinner. It's on everything now but I played and platinum'd it on PS4. Excellent classic style MV with a cool 'time' element and hidden secrets, bosses, multiple ending/outcomes, etc. 9/10 from me.
As expected from Edge. Not that it's a bad score
Bias.
7 is not a bad score for edge at all, they just don't give 8s to every half decent game.
