Wrestling Empire is a throwback to the glory days of professional wrestling video games on the Nintendo 64, but isn't quite as memorable.
Golden Force's few redeeming qualities are completely overshadowed by its horrendous frame rate and long list of technical problems.
The Pathless is clearly one of the better early PlayStation 5 games, though it has some issues with repetitive content and padding.
The Demon's Souls remake on PlayStation 5 is almost the exact same experience, gameplay-wise, as the 2009 PlayStation 3 original. And considering how great the original Demon's Souls was, the Demon's Souls remake on PS5 is an easy recommendation. Imagine one of the best and most influential games ever made, but with significantly improved graphics, and that sums up the Demon's Souls remake perfectly. It's the PlayStation 5's first must-have exclusive game, and it should leave fans very excited to see what developer Bluepoint Games decides to work on next.
Godfall's hack-and-slash combat is fun enough, but the dull story and pointless loot keep it from reaching its full potential.
Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War will be a great game with time, but its launch is disappointing thanks to technical issues and a lack of content.
The lack of online co-op in the new Battletoads is definitely the game's biggest flaw, so if fans can overlook that, they will find what is otherwise a great beat 'em up throwback with hilarious scenes, fun combat, and plenty of variety. And with it being on Xbox Game Pass, subscribers have no reason not to check it out. Overall, this Battletoads comeback is a major success and is sure to leave a smile on players' faces, and so hopefully fans don't have to wait 26 years for the next entry in the series.
In Death: Unchained is a fun, blisteringly difficult VR roguelike, but the superior version of the game may be on other platforms.
