PowerUp!'s Reviews
It appears there may be an endless number of things to do in Elden Ring and that's fine by me. I never want it to end.
Horizon: Forbidden West is still a top-tier game that’s well worth emptying one’s pouch of metal shards to purchase.
These are landmark titles and Naughty Dog's engaging gameplay and exquisite craftsmanship have been put on display for a whole new generation.
Rainbow Six Extraction is a great co-op (or solo) experience built on the incredibly solid foundation of Rainbow Six Siege.

It’s a masterclass in storytelling and a great first release for Modern Storyteller.
Sniper Elite VR misfires almost as much as it bullseyes
Death’s Door is a game that prepares you for the end, relishing in the journey all the same.
For all it’s charm and mechanical depth, Wings of Ruin only just manages to fly.
Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is a phenomenal, PS5 system seller, and you should invest all your bolts in it.
You can – and truly ought to – grab it right now on Switch, Steam of iPhone or iPad. It’s an utter delight.
Biomutant is a statement of intent, a deliberate step away from the excess of old and toward a genuinely exciting reinvigoration of the genre.
Resident Evil Village is a modern-day horror classic. While it doesn’t quite reach the heights set by Resident Evil 4 or, the best-in-the-series, Resident Evil 2, Village is a game worthy of the Resident Evil moniker
