For the cost of a large coffee with all the bells and whistles, you could instead indulge in some horror with the Dread X Collection.
Spongebob Squarepants: Battle for Bikini Bottom Rehydrated is an unfortunately rough package.
I would have enjoyed this DLC much more if it was longer than it was.
The Darius Cozmic Collections are both mostly enjoyable titles that collect a good number of incredibly hard but normally fun shoot-em-ups.
The story resolution won’t sit well with everyone, but it’s still worth playing for the mystery and clever puzzles.
Disintegration held a lot of potential, and while its gravcycle is novel, the rest of the package doesn’t live up to the strategy it promises.
Easy to start, but miles deep. THAT’S WAR, BABY!
Skelattack is a charming but flawed platformer that, while fun at times, seems to be at odds with itself when it comes to difficulty in its platforming.
Dark, disturbing, and intense, Those Who Remain might not be a perfect game, but it’s one horror fans shouldn’t sleep on.
Caked in a heavy VHS filter with grimy beats emanating from every corner, Sludge Life is the anti-capitalist game to vibe to we need right now.
The Definitive Edition of Xenoblade Chronicles is one of the best games ever made. The story, characters, gameplay, visuals, and music are all top-notch, and there’s a nearly endless amount of content in addition to the story.
Gears Tactics is a refreshing take on the tactics genre that has something for both Gears of War fans and newcomers to the series.
What Maneater lacks in variety, it more than makes up for in pure unbridled, delicious carnage.
Less-than-decent gameplay nearly spoils a quality narrative.
Wintermoor Tactics Club is ultimately a feel-good story with fun tactical battles. It might not be the most complex strategy game out there or have the deepest plot, but it’s an enjoyable way to spend 10 or so hours.
It’s XCOM but less intimidating and overwhelming.
Gals’ Fighters is a straightforward and incredibly fun fighter that takes advantage of its original technical limitations.
Trials of Mana is a stellar remake that manages to bring one of the most elusive Square Enix RPGs to the West in an impressive and colorful way.
Streets of Rage 4 is a near-perfect return for one of the most beloved beat-em-ups of all-time.
Though a couple of story beats seem stretched or concerning, Final Fantasy VII Remake is an overall fantastic game that does justice to the original with its grand gameplay, thoughtful additions to the story, and beautiful music and visuals.
