8.3 / 10.0 - Fast RMX
Mar 7, 2017

If you love arcade racers like Hydro Thunder, Star Wars Racer, and, of course, F-Zero, you’ll likely love what Fast RMX has to offer.

8.5 / 10.0 - Halo 5: Guardians
Oct 26, 2015

Halo 5 is a well-thought out story that clearly sets up a Halo 6 (don’t worry, I won’t give away the actual spoilers). If you were to tell me that 343 Industries was already working on a Halo 6 before actually playing Guardians, I probably would have been eye-rolling with the best of them. But after playing through Halo 5, another game feels necessary.

8.5 / 10.0 - BIOMUTANT
May 24, 2021

Biomutant feels like Rocket Raccoon meets Kung Fu Panda meets WildStar’s Chua class – in all the best ways possible.

8.5 / 10.0 - LawBreakers
Aug 12, 2017

LawBreakers is the brute of the genre, and we’re expecting it to mean mug its way to a bigger fan base with ease.

8.6 / 10.0 - Little Nightmares
May 1, 2017

While not actually frightening, its otherworldly characters are well conceptualized, and they’re each ugly and punishing enough to make gameplay interesting.

8.6 / 10.0 - Cuphead
Sep 29, 2017

Cuphead is a brilliant little game that is unique right down to its core, with a (mostly) welcomed challenge and beautiful aesthetics.

8.7 / 10.0 - Call of Duty: WWII
Nov 10, 2017

"likely going to be looked back upon as the game that saved the declining series."

8.7 / 10.0 - Destiny 2
Sep 18, 2017

Despite its few shortcomings, it's a much more well-rounded game than its predecessor. It isn't as much of a change to the naked eye, but it's many subtle, smaller changes are enough to satisfy both old fans of the franchise and bring in new players.

8.7 / 10.0 - Outlast II
Apr 24, 2017

"...I had to decide if I wanted to continue on for this review or come out with a DNF and go watch some cartoons to soothe my tortured soul. Seriously, Outlast 2 has some of the scariest moments you’ll find in a video game."

9 / 10.0 - Forza Horizon 4
Sep 25, 2018

Forza Horizon 4’s positives are so overwhelmingly so that its negatives feel more like a minor scratch on the paint than a flat tire

9.5 / 10.0 - Forza Motorsport 6
Sep 8, 2015

Forza Motorsport 6 is the best new generation racer, beating out DriveClub by a full lap and Project CARS by just a hair. Its selection of cars is incredible, driving in rain is as realistic as we’ve seen yet, and somehow it still feels accessible to newcomers to the series. Whether you want to drive a Bugatti or push a Cadillac Escalade, there’s something here for every car-loving racing-enthusiast.

9.6 / 10.0 - Injustice 2
May 23, 2017

While Gods Among Us was just a good game, Injustice 2 successfully brings the franchise into greatness, providing a near-perfect superhero fighting game for comic book-loving gamers.

9.7 / 10.0 - Devil May Cry 5
Mar 6, 2019

Devil May Cry 5’s self-awareness is a big part of what makes it such a great game. It doesn’t care that it’s still a linear game; it doesn’t care that it’s a hack ‘n slash in 2019; it doesn’t care that its story is mostly fan service. It embraces everything that it is – despite those elements typically being labeled as dated – and we love it more because it’s doing that.

9.7 / 10.0 - Super Mario Odyssey
Oct 31, 2017

Whether it is or it isn’t GOTY, it’s undeniably a charming platformer that ultimately deletes all of the frustrations we’ve had with Nintendo over the past couple of years, and is one of the best games of 2017.
