Dalton Cooper's Reviews
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.
Carrion delivers on its unique 'reverse-horror game' concept, letting players wreak havoc as a massive, disgusting blob of tentacles and teeth.
Rocket Arena combines Overwatch, Quake, and Super Smash Bros. with rocket launchers to create a truly unique multiplayer experience.
Phantom: Covert Ops is essentially VR Metal Gear Solid where players are stuck in a kayak, which is a surprisingly fun concept.
Hangar 13 releases Mafia 2: Definitive Edition, collecting all the game's DLC and improving the graphics, but some aspects haven't aged well.
A Fold Apart is a very brief puzzle game with some good and interesting ideas, but it ultimately falls short when trying to execute them.
The Resident Evil 3 remake is a great game while it lasts, though some fans may be disappointed by its short length and lack of scares.
Doom Eternal is a non-stop thrill ride, barraging players with incredible fast-paced action from the opening mission to its blood-soaked finale. Fans of the franchise should be thrilled with it, and anyone looking for a meaty FPS to fill their time can't go wrong with this game.
Call of Duty: Warzone is a top tier battle royale game, putting its emphasis on action and fun over looting and inventory management.
PS4 exclusive Dawn of Fear is a completely and utterly broken game that attempts to mimic old-school Resident Evil to disastrous results.
The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners is generally a good time and one of the better VR horror games on the market.
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Breakpoint is an inferior experience on Google Stadia, largely thanks to a barely-existent online community.
Boneworks is a genius, Valve-inspired virtual reality game wrapped in mediocre level design and unfortunate technical problems.
The Moxxi's Heist of the Handsome Jackpot DLC for Borderlands 3 is a worthwhile expansion with plenty of rewards and fun new characters.
Golem does some things very well, but its gameplay is so poor that it makes it impossible to recommend to PlayStation VR owners.
Arise: A Simple Story tells an emotional tale with some clever co-op gameplay ideas, but it may not always be engaging for the second player.
Darksiders Genesis is an engaging co-op experience that has some serious technical issues keeping it from reaching its full potential.
The Jackbox Party Pack 6 has one weak mini-game, but otherwise it's perhaps the most well-rounded collection of party games yet.
