"Ubisoft has set a high standard for 2024 with Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown. This Metroidvania is expertly crafted, with excellent platforming and standout combat. The game is full of personality, showcasing Ubisoft Montellier's skill. However, it falls just short of matching the best in the subgenre, with a lackluster story and occasional pacing issues. Still, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is a fantastic Metroidvania and a welcome return for a much-missed franchise."

Battletoads holds a special place in the hearts of many gamers. However, Battletoads 2020 is not the same experience as it was 26 years ago. It has evolved and knows how to distinguish itself. The game still has the beat 'em up action that you can enjoy, even if it's a bit on the lean side. Despite some fewer fights, the game is packed with all kinds of content. Riding your turbo bike, platforming and even space invaders action make for an incredibly diverse playthrough that feels entertaining and fresh from start to finish. Paired with colorful graphics, a banger of a soundtrack and wonderful couch co-op, Battletoads is a lot better than I could have imagined. At a time when old IPs are being excavated, it's nice to see this legendary franchise treated with respect. I hope to see more of the Battletoads in the near future and especially when the quality is as strong as this game. Rash, Pimple and Zitz are back baby!
