Everything I loved about the first game is intact, now with a visual uplift and a few enhancements. But the changes in The Last of Us Part 1 didn’t greatly enhance the finer points of this masterpiece, to an extent that I wouldn’t recommend this release right off the gate.
Read MoreThe Delicious Last Course feels like a completion of the ideas introduced in Cuphead rather than an evolution of the run-and-gun platforming gameplay, which will definitely delight and satisfy hardcore fans of the original classic title.
Read MoreDestroy All Humans! 2 Reprobed is a gorgeous, fun-filled, and lovingly-designed follow-up, as well as a superb remaster, of a cult classic game. Even though its cargo is starting to show its age, Destroy All Humans! 2 - Reprobed has enough in the cockpit to soar above the galaxy… and blast it to smithereens.
Read MoreThe new Saints Row is Volition's way of saying that the series is back and that they have not forgotten why they’ve been able to release four mainline titles with this amount of silliness in the past. The essence of the Saints Row series is intact, just slightly altered to fit modern tastes. It’s just unfortunate to not see drastic changes to the game’s core systems like combat, which could have propelled the series to new heights.

The name of the game is patience, as any sudden movement can ruin an opportunity for a clean kill.

Read MoreThere isn’t anything groundbreaking in The Quarry if you’ve played Until Dawn or any of the Dark Anthology games, but Supermassive games definitely delivered the best and most accessible version of the formula they are known for.
Read MoreSifu is the perfect representation of why the martial arts genre is so beloved by many and tackled through various mediums through the years. The amount of detail in the moves shown in this game empowers the player, making you feel like you can take on the world.
Read MoreEiyuden Chronicle: Rising has enough charm to keep me engaged with its story and gameplay, despite having a bunch of design choices that just didn’t work.
Read MoreOn paper, it’s more Borderlands shooting and looting goodness with a high-fantasy twist, but also a reminder that there’s still a good amount of charm that can be found in this well-established series. If this is the direction the series will be going in the future, I’m all for it.
Read MoreGran Turismo 7 checks all of the boxes of what would be expected from a palatable Gran Turismo game, but has some questionable design choices that weigh it down.
