Destiny has come a long way over the last two years, and this expansion shows it. What began with a wide-open world that relied on random rewards and repetition of the same, limited number of activities has become a well-rounded experience that gives players a wide array of options for growth. With Rise of Iron, developer Bungie has succeeded by doing more than just stacking new, exciting stuff into the game. It makes the entire game better. Where earlier expansions felt like isolated modules attached alongside the existing Destiny experience, Rise of Iron does an impressive job of weaving all of the aforementioned new content into the existing environment and making the entire Destiny experience feel broader, not just one corner of it.

Minor quibbles aside, Headlander is a charming game that works very well within its scope. Adult Swim and Double Fine have taken a silly premise and executed it elegantly from a mechanical perspective. Of Double Fine’s smaller projects in recent years, it is one of the most coherent. This is gimmick-driven gameplay done right, following an idea through to its natural conclusion without forcing anything more out of it.

Some games aren’t supposed to spawn sequels. Or reboots. Or become massive franchises. Not every idea can support the weight that falls on series like Call of Duty, The Legend of Zelda, or Assassin’s Creed. (Truth be told, even some of those franchises can’t really carry it, either.) By trying to make Mirror’s Edge: Catalyst attractive the wide audience it didn’t grab the first time around, this game lost some of its spark. Catalyst will not make you feel the thrill of the original Mirror’s Edge, nor will it make you feel something new. The parkouring that Mirror’s Edge fans want is in Catalyst, but you’ll have to climb over a lot of steep problems to enjoy it.

Far Cry Primal is packed full of stuff to do, just like every other open world game in publisher Ubisoft’s growing stable of the genre. It does some interesting things by applying the formula to a Stone Age setting, but like other Far Cry titles, it’s so broad that most of what it offers is simple, quick, and repetitive. In bursts, wandering the Stone Age lands with your bear bud in tow can be quite a bit of fun — but in larger doses, it turns out that even being a Prehistoric beast master is a day job that has its share of boring, menial tasks.

There’s a lot of talent at Campo Santo working on Firewatch, but the team’s first effort struggles to find its legs. It doesn’t quite have the writing chops to be a strong mystery, and it doesn’t bring the gameplay chops to make you feel like you’re an integral part of it. As a character drama, it lands closer to the mark, but spends too much time meandering in the woods. Firewatch comes off more as an experiment than a fulfilling game, and despite being beautiful and often compelling, it mostly smolders rather than catching flame.
