Bayonetta
Bayonetta is the standard that every action game should be held to, the combination of ultra-fluid combat, impeccable level design and phenomenal bosses is unmatched.
The game is designed as a series of combat puzzles. It's a game less about brute force and more about finesse, often requiring you to use

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance
Metal Gear Rising has aged like fine wine, one of Platinum Games' finest works.
The game is full of the Platinum Games style set pieces that you would expect, and the game is built around said set pieces. Use Zandatsu to carve up your enemies and consume their spinal fluid, slow

Super Mario Odyssey
Super Mario Odyssey is chock-full of fun and engaging mechanics that are unfortunately bogged down by the game's design philosophy. A game designed seemingly with the express intent to mock the completionists, the game has over 1100 moons to collect, but for some reason only counts up to 999. It

Vanquish
Vanquish is, in my opinion, the most underappreciated game in Platinum's lineup. It doesn't get nearly the same love as Bayonetta and Metal Gear Rising, but I think it deserves just as much. It's a tightly designed sci-fi shooter with a slew of unique and engaging mechanics that work together

Balatro
Balatro stuck with me a lot longer than many of the other roguelikes I have played, the formula is so incredibly basic, yet it just works. It's the Todd Howard of roguelikes. It's surprisingly strategically deep, and gives you many more tools to power through that limit the impact of

Arms
ARMS is a massive waste of time, for reasons that make almost no sense whatsoever. It's a shame, because the game has so much potential, but is bogged down by questionable design decisions.
Playing with motion controls in this game feels horrible, you move left and right by rotating the JoyCons,

Cult of the Lamb
I expected much more from this game. The combat is solid, albeit simplistic at times, and the art style and presentation are charming enough. My main issue is the game's many interesting mechanics just do not work together, especially in the late game. The game just starts to fall apart,

Kirby's Dream Buffet
There just isn't enough here to keep you playing for more than a few hours. It's a $5 game that costs $30 on the Nintendo eShop, the price is only as high as it is because it's Kirby. That's it.
The gameplay is very simplistic, you roll around, consume food, and

Hades
I genuinely do not see how this game won awards.
The combat in the game is passable. The core combat itself feels solid, but that's where the good parts of the game end. The weapons do not change your playstyle much, as for a successful run you will mostly be relying

Denshattack!
There's hardly a game here. It's all flashy colors with nothing underneath. I should have trusted my instinct and refunded it, but I decided to keep going. Big mistake.
I think one of the biggest issues with Denshattack! is that it isn't anything. Is it a game that wants you to
