Excellent writing and voice acting along fun gameplay in between story scenes makes this a really great time! Doing my second play through and enjoying it just as much as my first.

It Takes Two has been an absolute delight. I've played the first few hours with my wife (who is not much **** aside from OG Mario on SNES and Animal Crossing), and it has been the perfect co-op experience. The story is heartfelt, the puzzles present enough of a challenge without causing frustration, and the visuals on Series X are quite nice. I'm looking forward to completing this story soon!

As a long time PlayStation gamer, I hadn’t played a Forza game since the original on XBOX. When my Series X arrived on release day, this was the first game I booted up and I’ve been having a blast with it ever since. The cars and scenery are beautiful, and the game is packed full of cars and content so you always have something new to experience. If I had to give any criticism, it would be that I have had some trouble getting a decent number of players to connect to multiplayer races, so after a while I give up and just play the races solo against the AI. Overall I highly recommend the game if you want a more arcade experience than Forza Motorsport and want to see the beautiful 4K graphics and 60 FPS that next gen can offer. Plus, being free with GamePass feels like highway robbery!

I did not get a chance to play the beta of the game, but given that I was a big fan of the Halo series and the amount of hype the game was generating, I figured I'd risk the purchase. I am in no way disappointed! The game is beautiful and the gameplay is very solid and rewarding. While the story itself seems weak so far (mind you I'm not super far into the game), the fun of playing through the missions and exploring the evels with one or two of your friends more than makes up for the lack of story depth. I have never been a huge fan of RPGs, so while I understand why people are disappointed by the lack of dialogue in the game, it doesn't really bother me. Keep in mind that it's a FPS first, MMORPG second. With that said, if you like FPS games, then this is a solid buy. If you were a fan of the Halo series, then you should definitely get enjoyment out of it. If you're looking for a real RPG experience a la Skyrim or Mass Effect, look elsewhere.

As a gamer who has always preferred simulators like Gran Turismo, I bought this game because I really enjoyed the first Grid game. It is a lot of fun, as even though it isn't really a simulator, it isn't overly arcady like a Need For Speed game. The graphics are absolutely stunning, really pushing the limits of the PS3. The controls take some getting used to, but once you get the hang of it, the turning feels really good. I haven't tried online play yet, but the single-player story has been good enough to keep me occupied.

I've been playing this franchise for since back on the original Playstation, and I can honestly say I am blown away by this year's game. I honestly was not expecting much this season, but the improvements the devs made for this year really improve the overall gameplay. Hitting is no longer so difficult that every game is a pitcher's duel; now hitting is easy enough on the Veteren setting as to be fun, but still realistic. I'm sure after a few games I'll bump up the difficulty a bit and see how that goes. As for the presentation improvements, new camera angles, commentating, and cut scenes make the game look even more like a real TV broadcast. The new Postseason mode is really cool as well. The entire presentation changes to create a playoff atmosphere, and is nice for those who don't want to play through a whole season to experience the playoffs. As a diehard of the series I probably notice more changes than the casual player, but I can honestly say that this is the best baseball game I've played and am more than happy with dropping the $60 for it. A must buy for baseball fans!
