In a world where most hyped releases feel underbaked, Anomaly Agent delivers.

I enjoyed mindlessly killing zombies more in the base game than I did in the arcade style DLC. I guess that's all I have to say about that.
Wolfenstein: The New Order is enjoyable experience that I wish lasted a bit longer.
