Wreckreation delivers the arcade racing rush I wanted. It gets you into the action quickly, lets you shape the island with simple tools, and pairs strong audio with visuals that pop in all weather.

This is the Legends idea working as intended: tight scope, strong combat, and a city you'll want to visit over and over again.

9 / 10.0 - Keeper
Oct 17, 2025

Keeper delivers a focused six-hour journey built on movement, light, and confident pacing. Puzzles are fun to complete, and curiosity is rewarded with nice secrets. Presentation stands out with a hand-painted look, lively wildlife, thoughtful camera work, and a score that swells at the right moments. For narrative-first adventures, it’s an easy recommendation.

Sep 23, 2025

Nate’s awkwardness is utterly charming and the strange humour kept me smiling through every wobble. It’s a joyful, quirky ride and every awkward step felt deeply satisfying.

7.5 / 10.0 - NHL 26
Sep 6, 2025

NHL 26 is a strong step forward for hockey on PS5. Skaters and shooters feel sharper with ICE-Q 2.0, and the new goalie animations make each save exciting. Be A Pro finally adds stakes, Cup Chase gives offline HUT a meaningful challenge, and presentation upgrades like replays, overlays, and walkouts make the game feel alive. Commentary can repeat, and Franchise hasn’t changed much, but the on-ice improvements, career progression, and broadcast polish combine to deliver a game that’s satisfying, rewarding, and fun to return to again and again.

8.5 / 10.0 - Hell Is Us
Sep 1, 2025

Hell Is Us makes investigation feel like craft. I kept notes, followed odd clues and got real satisfaction from fixing small injustices. Combat felt great once I learned the timing trick and started experimenting with runes and the drone. The world looks and sounds like it’s steeped in history, and the PS5 runs it smoothly. The enemy variety isn’t huge and Remi can seem a bit flat, but honestly the whole package left me with a ton of memorable moments. If you like digging deep into puzzles and lore, this one’s worth every minute.
