"The Olympic Games fanfare is second-to-none. The roar of the crowd and the overwhelming pressure that’s bestowed on athletes of every race, colour and creed create a spectacle that billions around the world relish every four years. While the Winter Olympic Games is a more niche affair, there’s no disputing the real-life drama that will occur in Russia next February.
Mario & Sonic have been battling each other in various Olympic events since 2007, with this entry being the second title focusing on the Winter Games. Naturally aimed at the family market, kids will lap up the chance to see Bowser own Tails on the ice, but once they get their hands on the controller, they’ll see flawed motion controls and a party game that doesn’t offer much more than your standard fare."
Phil writes, "SuperPhillip Central's Favorite VGMs is usually an every-Monday occurrence where I share five of my favorite songs from various video games, whether they be retro or modern. I often feature songs from games that don't get as much attention from gamers as they should, but I don't make it a habit to make note of that.
Well, with Underrated Games With Even More Underrated Soundtracks, I definitely do. This third part features games that many slept on that have glorious music to them. As usual, I shall share six games and provide five sample songs for each soundtrack. Perhaps hearing some of the music from these games will encourage you to try them out!"
I am glad to see Transformers Devastation on the list. The music was so orgasmic when I played making every battle feel like a final showdown.
New deals for Sunday include Valkyria Chronicles for $9.99, WWE 2K15 for $39.99, Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games for $22.99 and more.
