Missile Command: Recharged still has the underpinnings of the Atari classic holding everything together, but the upgrade system is a double-edged sword that has the potential to break the game. Though this is not a dealbreaker, this change unfortunately trades skill for grinding.
Much like a goofy game show, the zany antics of Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout will appeal to gamers of all types. Though the first season has some nasty bugs and Show duds, those that bring some patience into this battle royale will enjoy their race to the top.
Bikerz manages to do the unthinkable by turning a seemingly exciting concept into something that is an absolute slog. This title suffers greatly from repetition, and players will be bored of its antics well before all is said and done.
Fairy Tail is a return to form for the classic turn-based RPG combat of yesteryear. A huge cast of memorable characters, tons of side content, and incredible combat all come together to form one of this year's most impressive JRPGs.
Arcade aficionados and Gundam fans alike will have an absolute blast with Mobile Suit Gundam: Extreme Vs. Maxi Boost ON. While there is a bit of a learning curve, the sheer speed, depth, and fanservice on display make it a shining example of the fighting game genre.
Hellpoint might have been a decent Souls clone if it didn't suffer from so many technical problems. A few more months in the oven would have done it wonders, but it is an easy skip in its current state.
If you have not played the original Destroy All Humans, and the mindless destruction of the human race is appealing to you, the 2020 remaster is a must-play. While some of the gameplay fundamentals show their age, the fantastic dialogue and voice-over work, especially with Crypto and Orthopox, is entertaining, funny, and top-quality throughout.
Ghost of Tsushima is the best Sucker Punch game to date. Anyone who is a fan of the developer, or samurai games in general, should not hesitate to pick this one up.
Carrion is undoubtedly a unique take on the survival horror genre. There are a couple of misses, but for the most part it works well for those with a few hours to kill.
Robot Island is a short but sweet adventure featuring a sci-fi world rife with emotion. Though it is full of fetch quests and runs a bit short, visual novel and point-and-click fans alike will enjoy this far out adventure.
Paper Mario: The Origami King is on the cusp of greatness, only let down by its tiresome combat system. Nevertheless, this adventure is one worth taking for most Paper Mario fans.
Formula Retro Racing is a true love letter to SEGA's arcade racers of old, nearly nailing the landing. Though the collision detection leaves something to be desired, those who have fond memories of blue, blue skies will enjoy racing in its low-poly world.
Sword Art Online: Alicization Lycoris is a game that many will love, but many more will not. With some interest in the source material and a passion for the JRPG space, there's probably 100 hours worth of content here for dedicated players. Unfortunately, glaringly obvious technical problems hinder what would otherwise be an amazing Sword Art Online game.
Fires at Midnight deftly conveys the twisted, complex nature of relationships in just a short amount of time. Though the gameplay can be rigid and the content crude, the worldbuilding achieved is worth a go for visual novel fans looking for a darker tale.
Despite its claims, There is No Game is a solid enough game that does a fine job breaking the fourth wall. Its short length hinders the possibility of multiple playthroughs, but those who have a passion for cheeky humor will dig its vibe.
It's difficult to judge Marvel's Iron Man VR poorly when a team of developers is pushing the hardware to its very limits. Camouflaj's attempt to put players into the Iron Man suit is a valiant one that offers one of PlayStation VR's most exciting and most memorable experiences to date, even if the VR itself struggles to keep up.
Retrowave's got the looks and the sounds that make the outrun aesthetic so great, but the gameplay manages to be a little too one-note for its own good.
Runpuzzle is far more frustrating than it has any right to be. The blocks are needlessly complex, and even those who patiently master the odd shapes and wonky collision detection will feel empty when all is said and done.
Roller Riot's two button setup provides just enough depth to keep the high score chasers among us enthralled. It's not the deepest title around, but it doesn't have to be.
Red Bow proves to be more of an incoherent dream than a lucid one. The cryptic puzzles and lack of focus manage to sully the overall presentation, making it a tough playthrough for even the most diehard of horror fans.
