Under the Radar – Five recent games worth trying out

Default Prime welcomes a guest writer, William Goswick, to talk about five recent games many gamers missed out on. These games are all genuinely good titles; how many have you played?

"In video game discussions, you’ll hear all sorts of terms being tossed around to describe a game’s social standing. “Overrated” someone will say, as they describe the latest Call of Duty and make the claim that it doesn’t deserve all its praise. “Underrated” someone will say, as they describe the latest Animal Crossing title and claim that people should appreciate it more, or that they simply just “don’t get it”.
