Splatoon raiders is an action packed story based shooter. Its mechanics are amazing, the upgrade system works so well and the difficulty is on spot. However the game does suffer with some balancing issues from time to time but thats okay, Splatoon raiders was a suprise hit and one of the best first party switch 2 games so far.

This is one of those games you can sink so many hours into, ive played about 30 hours and i have only scratched the surface. This game is hard to put down and one of the best games of its kind. It sort of a mix between animal crossing and the sims, the game is focused on both taking care of the miis and decorating the island. Definitely a game of the year contender so far and one of the most charmfull games in recent times

Mario kart world is a great kart racer and one of the best in the series, it delivers in terms of content however the tracks can be a bit boring, it has great driving mechanics but the open world mode it a bit lack luster

Astro bot is a love letter to all PlayStation fans. It has fun level design and fun collectibles but lacks a bit in difficulty and in terms of controls, they are very basic. Still a great game

Mario strikers: battle League is an underbaked Sports game that feels more like a tech demo. Is has no content and is super repeterive. And on top of that its a full priced game

It takes two is a wacky co-op platformer but lacks in terms of content. Its a well designed game but in our opinion a bit overrated

Split fiction is a great co-op platformer and hazelights greatest work so far. The game design is great and the story is also well made but the game lacks in terms of content. Great game thought

Clair obscur: expedition 33 is a strong and innovative rpg with a story that nearly broke me. The rpg mechanics are top notch and the game has a good cast of characters. Its anexeptionall game

As much as it tried my patience at times, I definitely enjoyed my time with Bendy and the Ink Machine. What seemed to start as a side project is on the way to becoming a full-blown franchise, and there’s enough narrative juice here to sustain it for sure. However the game is way to closed off, it doesnt reward exploration that much and while the story is great it can be hard to follow. Overall a good game but it has its flaws.

Subnautica is an interesting game, its main focus is survial horror and its great at that, However the progression can be slow and the game is Kinda too open for the type of game its trying to be

The legend of zeldamajora's mask is the 2000 game of the year here at the golden gamepad. It tells a really dark story and the world feels so real. But remember to play ocarina of time before this game because it takes place after.

The legend of zelda tears of the kingdom is the 2023 game of the year here at the golden gamepad and its also one of the greatest games of all time. It took the world of breath of the wild that already changed the open world formula and put it to shame! The tears of the kingdom is beyond just a masterpeice, its something i can only describe as magic. Its story is heart breaking and there are so many things to do in this game that it honestly feels more real then real life! This game is a must play!

Super mario odyssey is one of the greatest platformers of all time. Its creativity is out of this world, the capture ability is really fun and the game is filled with 900 moons to collect. Even if we at the golden gamepad prefer the more level structure that mario galaxy has to offer over the more sandbox kingdom exploration provided by odyssey, we cant deny how much work was put into this game.

Metroid prime is the 2002 game of the year here at the golden gamepad and the best 3d Metroidvania of all time. Feel of the game, the innovation, the length, the difficulty, the level design, the story, its all perfect! I can not think of a single flaw with this game. This is a masterpeice and a real must play!

Grand theft auto V is an incredibe but flawed game. It has a good story and lots of things to do but sadly the world gets repetetive really fast. However i can not deny the impact it has had on the gaming industry

Red dead redemption 2 is the 2018 game of the year here at the golden gamepad. With a world so alive and a story that will make grown men cry Red dead redemption 2 is a game everyone should play. But even if its a great game its not perfect. The Soundtrack is nothing special and the creativity isn't the best. Still an amazing game

The legend of zelda breath of the wild is the 2017 game of the year here at the golden gamepad. When i first played this game is was blown away. The world was so big and full of mysteres to uncover. The stuff you could discover where endless. It tells the story of link, a knight who has been asleep for 100 years exploring a dead kingdom. The post apocalyptic feeling of the game is just magical. My only complaint is that it doesnt feel much like a zelda game but thats okay because this game is awsome

Super mario galaxy is the 2010 game of the year here at the golden gamepad. While not as innovative as the first game. The level design, length and difficulty has greatly improved. Even if this game is really good i do wish nintendo would have done more to make it diffrent from the first game but its still a solid platformer.

Super mario galaxy is the 2007 game of the year here at the golden gamepad. With unparalelled level design, music that makes me cry, amazing art style and just the right difficulty mario galaxy is the best platformer of all time. I highly recomend this to everyone

The legend of zelda ocarina of time is the 1998 game of the year winner here at the golden gamepad. This is one of the most important video games of all time. Its innovation is unlike any other game and this game truly set the standard for all 3d action adventure games

While this game is really creativite in a lot of ways like progression, characters and combat, the game can feel a bitrepetetive after a while. Its a solid game still but its really slow paced. If the pacing was better the score would be higher. Still a really good game.

Elden ring is the 2022 game of the year here at the golden gamepad. Elden ring is a highly innovative game that brings difficulty, lore, amazing art style and unmatched combat to the table. I honestly dont know how to explain it because its so different from other games. So if you are up for a challenge give this game a try

Final fantasy VII is the 1997 game of the year here at the golden gamepad. Final fantasy VII is the greatest rpg of all time with loved story, Gameplay, characters and so much more. I could go on and on about how good this game is but ill leave it at this. If you like turn based rpg's i highly recomend this game.

Undertale is a very diffrent game. On the outside it seems like a simple game but when you get into the world you realise thats not the case. All the characters are memrable, Its creativity is unmatched, the much is amazing and the world of the game itself is just full of wonder because all you're choices matter. However i do wish the game was longer and the menu system is a bit clumsy but its a great game. I honestly dont wanna say much about the game here because undertale is a game most fun when going in blind.

The legend of zelda the wind waker is the 2003 game of the year here at the golden gamepad. It blends creativity with incredibe game design, some of the best video game much, a very sad story and the best art style in video game history. This is a true masterpeice
