Mark Delaney's Reviews
Watch Dogs: Legion throws out a decade of Ubisoft's cluttered-map open worlds in favor of exciting systems that deliver unique emergent moments consistently.
Pumpkin Jack is both a love letter to years of 3D platformers and one of the most timely releases of 2020, delivering a great family-friendly adventure just in time for Halloween.
Though its scares don't reach the heights of the original, Amnesia: Rebirth remains a must-play horror game for delivering a story more akin to a brilliant novel.
I don’t blame Stormind Games for sensing that urgency, but it seems obvious now to me, and perhaps to the team, that a more polished Remothered: Broken Porcelain is a better proposition than the version we got, rushed to the store before it was ready. Remothered: Broken Porcelain doesn’t deserve to be your Halloween stream of 2020, but give the team some time and they may be able to piece it back together.
This Is The Zodiac Speaking salvages a faulty setup by offering a secondary story mode that is much more enjoyable to play than its main draw.
The Mafia franchise again presents one of the medium's best-written stories, though the series still stumbles on building something special around that story.
Like an early card match at a pay-per-view event, WWE 2K Battlegrounds is meant to keep the crowd entertained before the main event re-enters the arena, but it's rarely as flashy or fun as its concept implies.
Marvel's Avengers is the most broken gaming experience in 2020, and even if it was polished, it would be severely flawed.
The final piece of the Control story brilliantly bridges the mystery-filled gap between itself and Alan Wake while paving the way for so much more.
The series' most stylish entry ever thanks to The Yard and player customization, but these new features come without the substance required to contend for football glory.
Nothing else has ever paired high tension with complete silliness like this, and Fall Guys reveals we should've been doing it a long time ago
Maid of Sker carries a proper tune in its story and setting, but faulty AI leaves much of this horror story feeling flat.
In the ever-shifting hero shooter genre, Rocket Arena makes a name for itself as the family-friendliest of the bunch without sacrificing its competitive spirit.
Though its name offers no way around it, the creative ways you dispatching foes makes Orcs Must Die 3 perhaps the most addictive Stadia exclusive to date.
Disintegration comes from the co-creator of Halo, but don't let that lead you to think this is a typical FPS. It's a satisfying but flawed genre-bender that usually capitalizes on its risks.
Summer in Mara looks lovely right away, but the shine wears off quickly amid a long list of issues, both fixable and sadly, not fixable.
The Outer Worlds is one of 2019's best games. On Switch in 2020, it's still pretty great, even if it is in some ways inferior to its counterparts.
Those Who Remain won't stay with you for long, but with some good scares and a story that twists more than I expected, it's a decent horror story for an evening.
In 2020, Mafia 2 is a game greater than the sum of its parts. It shows its age in several areas, and though flawed, it still has its merits.
Saints Row 3 is mechanically the best the series has ever been, and narratively the worst it's ever been, leaving this born-too-late remaster a mixed bag.
