Gears 5
8633 critic reviews·Sep 8, 2019·Xbox Game StudiosPCXbox OneXbox X|S“We like it when creators are able to recognize their mistakes. Gears 5 lets go of the expedition company of rookie boy scouts, and serves a hard-boiled action shooter instead. Just like the old days.”

Doom
858 critic reviews·Jul 25, 2019·Bethesda SoftworksPCPS4Xbox OneSwitch“DOOM is back on a Nintendo system for the first time since 1997 when DOOM 64 released. That’s pretty wild that it’s been 20 years! I was never a big fan of”

Borderlands 2
8416 critic reviews·Sep 17, 2012·Sony Computer Entertainment of AmericaPCPS3Xbox 360PS4 +2“When you take one of the best RPGs from 2012 and shrink it down to a handheld, there's a lot that could happen. Thankfully, all of the best parts of Borderlands 2 made the transition.”
- 10

The King of Fighters XV
8321 critic reviews·Feb 15, 2022·Koch MediaPCPS4Xbox OnePS5 +1“I’d like to start this review by making a few corrections. The last time I played The King of Fighters was during the 2002 era (the NESTS Saga, for those who aren’t aware).”

Gears of War: Ultimate Edition
8223 critic reviews·Aug 24, 2015·Microsoft StudiosPCXbox One“Gears of War: Ultimate Edition isn't the Xbox One's killer app but it's a good addition to any shooter fan's library. Some mechanics have begun to show their age but as a whole, it's a worthwhile and fun experience.”

Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare

- 16

A Way Out
8227 critic reviews·Mar 22, 2018·Electronic ArtsPCPS4Xbox One“Timing button prompts, ruining emotional cutscenes, coordinating madness, and endless mini-game distractions. A Way Out is a co-op game like no other that you shouldn't miss out on experiencing.”
- 17

A Hat in Time
8120 critic reviews·Oct 4, 2017·Gears for BreakfastPCPS4Xbox OneSwitch +2“While rough around the edges, A Hat in Time is still an adorable and highly enjoyable love letter to 3D Platformers, and a potential new classic.”

- 21

TrackMania Turbo
8014 critic reviews·Mar 21, 2016·Ubisoft EntertainmentPCPS4Xbox One“Competing against friends to fastest times is going to be a bit of an addiction, again like Trials, and for only £25 I can't see many reasons not to give Trackmania Turbo a whirl.”
- 22

Ultimate Chicken Horse
795 critic reviews·Mar 3, 2016·Merge GamesPCPS4Xbox OneSwitch“Ultimate Chicken Horse may not look like much, but it's hard to deny its innate charm and prowess at co-op fun.”

LEGO City Undercover
7916 critic reviews·Mar 16, 2013·WB GamesPCPS4Xbox OneSwitch“LEGO City Undercover is a slap-happy LEGO GTA. This 2017 remaster of the 2014 Wii U exclusive now introduces the originally absent co-op play, while also jumping onto the Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.”

- 28

Tiny Tina's Wonderlands
7845 critic reviews·Mar 24, 2022·2K GamesPCPS4Xbox OnePS5 +1“Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands doesn’t stray too far from the Borderlands series, but it doesn’t need to when the consistently funny characters and familiar yet satisfying gameplay are this enjoyable from front to back.”
- 29

LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens

- 31

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II
7718 critic reviews·Oct 27, 2022·ActivisionPCPS4Xbox OnePS5 +1“Great campaign, coupled with intense multiplayer mayhem but all of that is dragged down by an infuriating number of freezes, crashes, and stutters - both in single-player and multiplayer.”

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War
7740 critic reviews·Nov 12, 2020·ActivisionPCPS4Xbox OnePS5 +1“Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War on PS4 is an ever-so-slightly worse looking version of the PS5 release, but with disappointing performance.”

Human: Fall Flat
7611 critic reviews·Jul 21, 2016·505 GamesPCPS4Xbox OneSwitch +3“Dreams are a wonderful thing. After our eyes grow heavy and our bodies fall to sleep, our minds are given incredible possibilities for fun, constrained only by our own imaginations locked away in our slumbering heads.”
- 36

Team Sonic Racing
7531 critic reviews·May 20, 2019·SegaPCPS4Xbox OneSwitch“It might not be as good as Sonic & All-Stars Racing: Transformed, but Team Sonic Racing is a joyous and remarkably fun kart racer with a smart team-based twist. Gotta go fast, and that.”
- 37

LEGO Dimensions
757 critic reviews·Sep 26, 2015·WB GamesPS3Xbox 360PS4Xbox One“I’m sort of torn in LEGO Dimensions. It’s one of the most expensive propositions in all of gaming right now, but the gameplay is there and the Starter Pack stands on its own.”

GoldenEye 007
755 critic reviews·Jan 25, 2023·Xbox Game StudiosXbox OneSwitchXbox X|S“GoldenEye 007 is a bit ropey in places, especially during multiplayer games, but the single-player campaign is simple fun and the online play is surprisingly entertaining and thorough.”
- 41

The Escapists 2
7412 critic reviews·Aug 21, 2017·Team17PCPS4Xbox OneSwitch“What The Escapists 2 does do is improve its look, expand your options for escape, and throws in a hilarious multiplayer. What The Escapists 2 does not do is make itself significantly more accessible and forgiving.”
- 42

Raiden IV x Mikado Remix
745 critic reviews·Apr 21, 2021·UFO Interactive GamesPCPS4Xbox OneSwitch +2“As far as vertical shmups hauled out of the arcades and ported to home consoles are concerned, Raiden IV x MIKADO remix is just about as good as it gets.”

- 45

Hot Wheels Unleashed
7432 critic reviews·Sep 29, 2021·MilestonePCPS4Xbox OneSwitch +2“Hot Wheels Unleashed is a competent enough racer, but lacks anything to make it unique compared to previous games. It’s generally very bland, relies on loot boxes, and the AI rubber bands constantly.”

- 47

Contra: Operation Galuga
7220 critic reviews·Mar 11, 2024·KonamiPCPS4Xbox OneSwitch +2“While it never transcends its own limitations and fumbles, Operation Galuga is a solid entry into the Contra franchise that is fun enough to play on its own merits.”

LEGO DC Super-Villains
7216 critic reviews·Oct 15, 2018·WB GamesPCPS4Xbox OneSwitch“All the boxes are checked off, as it were, with LEGO DC Super-Villains on the Nintendo Switch. This adventure offers satisfying gameplay for collectathon fans,”

Trailblazers
715 critic reviews·May 7, 2018·Rising Star GamesPCPS4Xbox OneSwitch“Trailblazers is a race-and-paint game for children. With its smooth, consistent gameplay and simplistic challenges, a group of toddlers could be content for hours.”

LEGO Marvel's Avengers
6819 critic reviews·Jan 25, 2016·Feral InteractivePCPS3Xbox 360PS4 +1“Where last year's LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham proved that there's still life in the LEGO series, LEGO Marvel's Avengers is proof positive that cracks are beginning to show in TT Games' once bulletproof franchise.”
- 54

LEGO The Hobbit
6713 critic reviews·Apr 7, 2014·MGM InteractivePCPS3Xbox 360PS4 +1“It’s very faithful to the movie and manages to embellish enough so as to not be a simple retelling, yet doesn’t quite cover enough ground to be anything other than a companion to the films.”
- 55

WWE 2K17
6515 critic reviews·Oct 10, 2016·2K GamesPCPS3Xbox 360PS4 +1“Like previous versions, WWE 2K17 takes some major steps forward, but then takes even more steps backwards and unfortunately, it takes even more steps backwards than WWE 2K16.”

- 60

Bee Simulator
568 critic reviews·Nov 11, 2019·NaconPCPS4Xbox OneSwitch“I’ll let you know right away that I’m a bit disappointed by Bee Simulator. That’s partially because I’m a grown adult and partially because they didn’t nail down one of the core mechanics of the game.”
