Pretty underwhelming, but good price at least. Delta is an amazing addition, makes it worth it on its own. With the Free Lanes update dropping at the same time, it makes for an overall positive experience.

Everyone involved in making this game gotta be over the age of 35 and can’t let go of the “good old days” . but despite the corny stuff and it barely being a “game”, it is a pretty good nostalgia bait. Games like this are important because of how diverse and unique games can be. Never playing again, but it was a journey I’m glad to have experienced.

Absolutely amazing game with an interesting and engaging story… until at one point near the end (and especially the end) with probably the worst difficulty spike I’ve ever experienced in a game. So skill issue basically, if you want to call it that. But personally it drags down the rating.

Beautifully done puzzle game that provides a challenge without being too difficult. Music is a highlight as well.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is the best game I’ve ever played. I genuinely believe Sandfall does absolutely EVERYTHING right, an incredible feat for the studio's first game. From the visuals, to the combat, to the phenomenal and thought provoking story, to the MUSIC. THE FREAKING MUSIC. THE OST IS A DAMN MASTERPIECE. This game is a work of art.

Visually beautiful with a moving story that is amazing at times, but inconsistent in numerous aspects like combat and pacing.

I was extremely skeptical of this DLC for obvious reasons, but I had quite an enjoyable time with this. Many quests felt intriguing, and the handcrafted area around the city brought back a much needed level of detail in the world that Starfield lacked.

Grand Theft Auto V is a game featuring a natural-feeling and well written story, a phenomenally crafted world with funny but still complex characters paired with the hilarious but meaningful social commentary on America. One of the best games ever.

Magnificent piece of work by Compulsion Games. Capturing the Southern vibe, beautiful stop motion/comic/claymation visuals and artstyle, story, and music that sets the scene. However, while the combat can be satisfying at times, it is a bit unbalanced and broken especially on highest difficulty, and also could get repetitive. Other than that, phenomenal game.

Avowed is a well-done game, especially in the companions and their depth, graphics, rewarding exploration, and variance in combat. However, the world does feel lifeless in a sense, with stationary NPCs and items breaking immersion. The story, while good, feels thrown together at times. It is a solid game, nothing more and nothing less.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is one of, if not, the best game I've played this year. Everything was on point. Characters, story, writing, gameplay, cinematics and music was all very well done. It really felt like an Indiana Jones movie - except YOU are Indy himself, and you get to do all the things Indy does and BE Indiana Jones. Only complaints is the weird bug one time where the whip and drop item buttons stopped working one time, which was fixed by going back a checkpoint. The bug never occurred again thankfully. And the boss fight was annoying and kinda ****. But the ending is phenomenal and made up for it. Watching the end credits roll gave me the same feeling I get after watching a good movie. Everyone who worked on this game did a great job as well, that includes you, Todd Howard. And RIP Tony Todd, legend. TLDR: You are THE Indiana Jones in this game. I think that's all I need to say.

Batman: Arkham Knight is one of the most graphically impressive games that still proves to be a visually stunning game 9 years after launch. The free flow combat remains as one of the best combat systems in all of gaming, with satisfying maneuvers and takedowns. Predator sections are also great, with lots of variety in ways to encounter situations. The story is solid, with a slew of side missions with interesting storylines as well to go along with the main mission.

Senua's Saga: Hellblade II is a visual masterpiece with a quality story and intense, heart-wrenching combat.

A culmination of some of the greatest first person shooter games of all time. Not much you can argue against that to me. There are slight inconsistencies with specific details in some campaigns and multiplayer was quite a mess at launch, but in its current state it's safe to say this is deserving of being the home of one of the greatest FPS franchises of all time.

The perfect arcade racer with a gorgeous world and fun to play driving mechanics.

Skyrim doesn't have the best writing. It doesn't have the best gameplay mechanics. It doesn't have the best combat. But that's not what makes this game what it is. Skyrim is a world, a beautiful, rich, alive world, that lets you craft your own story and be whoever and whatever you want to be. That's what makes The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim special.

After many hours of playing, I've come to a conclusion of how I feel of the game. Starfield is Bethesda going out of their comfort zone while still attempting to stay in the comfort zone. It has its moments, but also obvious flaws that exist because some of Bethesda's ways just don't translate in a space game like Starfield unlike Elder Scrolls or Fallout. However, I genuinely enjoy this game, despite initial skepticism due to the numerous poor reviews. For what it is, it's a game where it isn't too intense, a game where you can just sit down and relax almost. Overall this game is really good to me. It fits my needs for a space RPG and that's all I need. A vast universe with a lot to do.

Some of the most fun I've had in a Halo campaign (or a game in general). It's a Halo game with modern but not with the gritty art style 4 and 5 have. So that's pretty damn good if you ask me.
