But Rez Infinite is the thing we've been waiting for since before we knew this was a thing we could even reasonably expect to wait for. Strapping Rez to your face and living inside it is the ultimate realization of this story, setting, and gameplay. As someone who has returned to Rez nearly annually for damn near 20 years, Rez Infinite is the version I'll play.
Modern Warfare makes meaningful tech upgrades to the Call of Duty franchise, making it look and sound better than ever while still maintaining its crisp, exciting gameplay.
Control feels like Remedy firing on all cylinders, resulting in a smart and sensational action-adventure.
Gears 5 plays around with the formula a bit, but it's still at its best when it's just being a solid-ass Gears of War game.
Just go play Crackdown 1 again.
Forza Horizon 4's connected world and seasonal weather help make what's otherwise a very familiar-feeling experience feel fresh one more time.
Far Cry 5's story is a real let-down, but the action still makes for a solid co-op experience.
There are some elements around the edges that haven't aged all that well, but Burnout Paradise is still a fantastic racing game.
Metal Gear Survive is both a bad survival game and a bad Metal Gear game.
This rollercoaster ride of a turn-based strategy game starts out almost impossibly strong, but by the end I mostly wished it'd been over three hours earlier.
