The essence of a true B-grade game returns. Beneath its off-kilter weirdness lies combat that strikes at the core of action itself—distance control and psychological pressure. The title may insist you should ‘let it die,’ but ironically, it’s a descent into hell that makes you fight to live more desperately than ever.
My Little Puppy is a heartfelt digital tribute that gently comforts those facing pet loss. Its charming Corgi details shine, though the clunky controls are a drawback. Still, the story of a departed companion coming to meet you transcends its technical limits, offering a warm, resonant experience for anyone grieving a beloved pet.
“Life is a tragedy when seen in close-up, but a comedy in long-shot.” Charlie Chaplin’s words capture Black Ops 7 in a single stroke. The campaign disappoints when viewed as a traditional Call of Duty experience, but if you set your expectations aside and view it simply as a co-op experience, it goes down a bit easier. Meanwhile, its multiplayer endures, drawing players back with reliable run-and-gun pacing and solid gunplay.

However, the narrative - while more serious in tone - falls short of its ambitious potential, leaving some lingering disappointment.
Mega Evolution! By embracing a real-time combat system that fits the series perfectly, the new title raised its pure fun factor to modern standards. While improved graphics and optimization shine, the small-scale maps, repetitive content, and lack of the forward-looking vision fans expected from the Legends series hold it back.
Battlefield 6 was released with many expectations riding on it, but it’s not quite the spectacular game people had hoped for. The campaign lacks polish in terms of quality, and the multiplayer reward system is deeply flawed. Nevertheless, the game retains the core gameplay and fun that the Battlefield series is known for, leaving room to hope for a better future.
