Mind Control Delete breathes new life into the modern classic, adding a whole new dimension to the linear structure of Superhot. From challenging new types of enemies and weapons to new hacks and powerups (and more of the cryptic storytelling), Mind Control Delete adds in enough content to be well worth your time.
Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart is a must-have game for any self-respecting PS5 owner.
Doom Eternal is a worthy addition to the Doom franchise and it does take it forward with a number of well-implemented elements. You can try hard to find reasons to complain to in the game, but the game will keep you hooked up throughout the roughly-15 hours of ruthless gameplay. Whether you are a fan of the franchise or not, there is no reason why you shouldn't try out this game.
The PC version of LEGO Builder's Journey is a great port that takes advantage of next-gen visual features to make a pretty game even prettier. Even if you don't have the best hardware to take advantage of its newfound beauty, Builder's Journey is a short little tale I highly recommend anyone to not skip out on.
Assassin's Creed Valhalla is one of the best games in the series, striking the perfect balance between the franchise's newfound RPG gameplay and a focused narrative that pays respects to its predecessors in meaningful ways.
Resident Evil 3 makes yet another case for Capcom's immense talent in updating the classics to a modern standard. Everything from the characters to the visuals, the atmosphere and the addictive gameplay loop here reflect the original game's big ambitions. The story here gets some nice tweaks along with the freakishly awesome design of Nemesis, which newer players will also find rewarding.
Insomniac has delivered an excellent game that recognizes and respects the Spider-Man lore from the comics. With an amazing combat system and the best traversal we've ever experienced in the wall crawler's foray into video games, Marvel's Spider-Man is a must-own for any die-hard fan of the character, as well as for any self-respecting PS4 owner.
Ghostrunner is an awesome game that is challenging, but fun to play and push for completion.
While it's not worth buying at full price, Observer: System Redux is definitely worth getting it on a sale and trying it out. Be warned that the game might not suitable for people with a history of epilepsy or who had suffered seizures in the past.
An engaging JRPG with many new concepts, albeit a bit rough around the edges
Sea of Solitude is a little too short for its own good. However, with the combined effect of EA's status and the creativity of Jo-Mei Games, it stands out for its breathtaking narrative regardless of its somewhat lacking gameplay.
Captain Spirit is a really fun time. It manages to remind us of the developers love for effective storytelling. It's awesome. And it's free.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare marks a celebratory return to form for Infinity Ward and Activision, as it successfully pumps new blood into this classic franchise. While the single-player campaign could have been longer for my money's worth, I'm content with the overly stylized storytelling, over-the-top, yet realistic visuals and most of all - fun gameplay.
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order proves to be one of the best games in the franchise, while simultaneously proving yet again that single-player narrative games are here to stay. While it does take a lot of inspiration from many other classics, it manages to carve out a unique identity.
Cyberpunk 2077 is a game of the generation, but its technical and gameplay ambitions can get hampered by either perplexing design decisions or hardware that most gamers have. The open-world futuristic Night City and the people who reside in it are some of gaming's most memorable ones and the story captures the essence of Cyberpunk beautifully.
Shadow of The Tomb Raider is a good game. It’s been made with a respectable budget and decent writing, with tried and tested gameplay tropes. But that’s where the praise ends. For the final instalment in a trilogy, the game does not do enough. Not nearly enough at all.
Capcom hits another positive note with Resident Evil Village, with a great premise and setting which are only let down by fewer scares than RE7 and the story's drastic turns towards the latter half.
A land distorted into something spectacular. It may have it's shortcomings, but thanks to a riveting soundtrack and a breath-taking world, it's definitely a game worth playing.
Mafia Definitive Edition puts a nice graphical coat of paint on a dated, yet much-loved classic. However, while the story and characters are just as good if not better than the original, its gameplay mechanics fall short and performance even shorter.
Neversong is a beautiful game about a very personal, and gut-wrenching story that manages to exceed expectations in the narrative department, if not in the gameplay itself. If you're fond of short adventures with a gripping plot, then this one's for you.
