Splitgate 2’s execution of Battle Royal feels more like a fast paced shooter than a typical BR mode from other games. Its vast array of game modes kept me locked in and excited to try out the next one. From map design, loadouts, game modes, abilities, and gun play, everything about this arena shooter feels expert crafted. The biggest thing from my review that I would like to highlight, is that in every aspect of this game, it is all well balanced. Nobody has the upper hand on you, it all comes down to skill. That is what makes a great multiplayer game great.
I can’t help but point out that I see a lot of haters saying this game wouldn’t be successful without the IP. I think Crystal Dynamic’s Marvel Avengers is proof that IP isn’t everything. It’s the love and care put into how the characters are crafted that shines through to make this game unique and make you feel like you are playing the definitive Marvel experience. Leaving IP out of the conversation, this hero shooter is worthy of your time when so many are fighting for it. I urge you to download and give this game a proper shot. Whether you are flying around shooting missiles as Iron Man or throwing 10,000 punches in .01 second as Iron Fist, you will truly feel like you are a hero in this well crafted shooter game.
I am so glad this game is its own stand alone thing. It can now get the love and attention it deserves. Whether you are playing online or with a friend through the campaign, each class is a guaranteed good time. If you ever fantasized about getting out on the field, I highly recommend this game!
Steel Seed is the perfect game to jump in to after Split Fiction and Assassins Creed Shadows. Its setting and combat reminded me of one of my favorite games, Star Wars Jedi Survivor. As a fan of stealth games, this game provides a solid experience that will not disappoint. The game never overstayed its welcome and constantly provided new experiences keeping the game fresh throughout my 12 hours with the game.
I’ve been back and forth on what I would rate A Quiet Place The Road Ahead. At the end of the day, its issues stick out to me so much because this game flirts so much with perfection. They aim to immerse you in to an experience that will make your heart stop. It successfully does so until you hit a minor flaw that can break your immersion.
This game makes me fall in love with football and I’m simply not a sports person. Its fast paced action forces you to think fast on the field and really think deeply about your next button input. Its art style, vast customization options, and gameplay make this game one you won’t forget anytime soon. I sincerely hope we start to see other iterations of this game play style sports games from more developers. But due to a few flaws, the need for further polishing, and approachability, it makes me second guess recommending it to just anyone. I can however highly recommend picking this game up and testing the waters for yourself to see if its for you.
If you want to come back to re-visit Ninja Gaiden 2, I highly recommend you do. If you loved it the first time, you will love it even more with its new polish. But if you are new to the game, be aware that you are paying for graphics. In terms of game mechanics, you will have a similar experience to the original title. To play this game in 2025 is a reminder of how far games have come technologically speaking. But it is an amazing revitalization of a classic that reminds us, 2025 needs more 2008 era games.
For Valorant players, this is a great game to get in to. Great map design, art direction, a ton of content, fun game modes, and the shard card system for sure makes it stick out amongst the rest. If you are looking for a fun hero shooter to give you a break from Marvel Rivals, you won’t find a good time here. Fragpunk‘s fast paced run and gun style of combat holds it back from you being able to fully enjoy all the things that make this game unique.
