Stellar Blade
Despite its half-baked story, forgettable characters, and insincere world-building, I couldn't help but enjoy my time with Stellar Blade. Perhaps it's because it knows what it is, and I knew what I was getting into. What you see is what you get. The combat is the heart of the experience, but...
Fluid gameplay, challenging puzzles, and a heart wrenching story — all wrapped up in a roughly 8 hour journey that will rest with you for far longer. My hope is that Tales of Kenzera: ZAU inspires other developers to explore the stories of Africa with as much love as Surgent...
For fans of JRPGs, it’s unmissable, and features all the typical tropes: turn-based combat, minigames, emotional beats, and fishing (obviously). It encourages you to take your time, explore every corner, and rewards you with something new continuously.
If you enjoyed Hi-Fi Rush, or Metal: Hellsinger and are looking for something to scratch a similar itch, then you cannot go wrong with Beat Slayer. However, if you’re looking for a unique experience, you won’t find it here.
When it comes to sports gaming, MLB The Show 24 is just more proof of Sony San Diego's supremacy over the genre. Road to the Show is better than ever, and even with a few flaws it's still the best career mode available today. Diamond Dynasty outperforms every single ultimate...
Rise of the Ronin isn't just Team Ninja's most ambitious game to date; it's also its most important one. With this title, the studio has pivoted into a bold new direction while still retaining the essence of its classic titles. However, if the studio's past games didn't click for you, it's...
After hours and hours spent in this remastered release, my only complaint is that I don't have time to play it non-stop for the next week.
While it's not quite perfection, WWE 2K24 is the best this franchise has been in years. The WWE 2K24 roster is packed with even more on the way via post-launch DLC, and Community Creations continues to be the fan-driven cherry on top of that. MyRISE, MyGM, and Universe Mode use...
Players who want to relive that original experience without having to hunt down a classic console and game will be served a high-octane dose of nostalgia.
With enough support and attention, Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor could easily become a PC staple. For fans of the main title, this is a worthy investment and one that can only get better.
Helldivers 2
Helldivers 2 is one of the most refreshing multiplayer experiences out there and easily the best PvE extraction shooter to date. Its robust shooting mechanics and unique gameplay ideas make up for a stellar moment-to-moment experience. Despite being plagued with a plethora of game-breaking issues, Helldivers 2 feels like a...
Rogue Trader sets itself out from the crowd, both in its franchise and its genre. It feels unique. It’s not just boltguns and chainswords slapped onto Pathfinder. The thought and care to make it have its own identity has been taken, and I hope Owlcat follows through further with it....
