Dalton Cooper's Reviews
Even without its extra game modes, the Resident Evil 4 remake is still phenomenal. It offers nonstop visceral combat and clever changes that help it feel both new and familiar at the same time. The fact that the Resident Evil 4 remake is not as content-complete as previous iterations of the game hurt it, but what's there is still so good that most will be able to forgive it.
Unless one is really desperate to unlock a bunch of easy achievements, there is no real reason to play Scars Above. It's like a video game rough draft. Some games have been accused of being half-baked, but Scars Above is like raw dough. It has some interesting concepts and weapons, but it never grows into anything resembling a full-fledged gaming experience. Its budget price of $40 is still asking way too much, even for the most diehard third-person shooter enthusiasts. Scars Above may mimic games like Returnal and Dark Souls, but it is highly unlikely to please fans of either game.
Returnal marks yet another high quality PC port of a PlayStation exclusive game and is a must-buy for anyone that hasn't already played on PS5.
Hogwarts Legacy lives up to the hype, and we can confidently say it's the best thing to come out of the Harry Potter franchise since the original books and movies.
The Dead Space remake improves on the 2008 original in every category with significantly upgraded graphics, gameplay, and more.
High on Life is a fun first-person shooter game with a memorable and hilarious story as well as a couple of serious bugs that need addressing.
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are an ambitious attempt to take the Pokemon franchise open world, but they fail to live up to expectations.
The Callisto Protocol is an excellent game while it lasts, but it's missing important features that would have propelled it to the next level.
Evil West's core combat is an absolute blast, though the game's short length and underwhelming presentation may be deal-breakers for some gamers.
Bayonetta 3 is an over-the-top thrill ride from start to finish, with incredibly fun gameplay that outshines its few shortcomings.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2's campaign is a disappointment and while there's fun to be had in multiplayer, it's missing important features.
The Winters' Expansion for Resident Evil Village is a must-buy for fans of the base game, with plenty of scares and classic Resident Evil gameplay.
Dragon Ball: The Breakers is a genius idea on paper and can be fun at times, but the execution leaves a lot to be desired.
With more action and a far more ambitious narrative, A Plague Tale: Requiem is everything that fans could want from a sequel.
It should be pointed out that Scorn is a day one Xbox Game Pass game, and that is really the only way to justify playing it. Otherwise, Scorn is an experience that even the most diehard horror game fans should skip.
Overwatch 2's core gameplay is an absolute blast, but it mostly consists of content that already existed with annoying progression added to the mix.
Immortality is a one-trick pony when it comes to gameplay, but there's a brilliant story buried beneath its hundreds of film clips.
Pac-Man World Re-Pac is a faithful remake of the PS1 game, retaining the original's best features as well as its flaws.
Saints Row has its moments, but the game is weighed down by ugly graphics, bad shooting, and a story full of obnoxious characters.
MultiVersus is a fun, competitive twist on the Super Smash Bros. formula with an extremely bright future ahead of it.
