Spica Adventure is a very sweet and colorful game that can be enjoyed by almost anyone. Try it out if you have the means, I’m pretty sure you will like it.
Lord of Hatred might be the best Diablo expansion ever released, and it certainly positions Diablo IV in the best place it has ever been. Whether you are an old Diablo player who skipped IV entirely, someone who bounced off at launch, or a completely new player to the series, Lord of Hatred offers the perfect time to enter hell and take on what Diablo IV has to offer.
Beyond Words feels like Scrabble remade by someone who’s never really played it.
Overall, I really enjoyed my time with Pragmata. It does a great job of breathing fresh air into the third-person shooter genre, while offering up an interesting story, great lead characters, and some fantastic looking designs throughout.
There was a ton of hype around Pokopia’s release and I genuinely believe it has lived up to that excitement. It is by far and wide the most unique take on Pokémon that the franchise has ever seen and it’s got the quality behind it to further reinforce that creativity. Between a bunch of rewarding exploration, unique interactions with each Pokémon, and absolutely ludicrous freedom of creation, Pokopia brings Pokémon into the cozy builder style of game with extreme force.
It’s got some interesting new features, but nothing that makes the game even better. Though seeing as Super Mario Bros. Wonder is one of the best 2D Mario games ever, the phrase “gilding the lily” seems fairly appropriate.
I wouldn’t call it a great game or a hidden gem, but it’s decent enough that it lives in that same so-so range that so many other GameMill games sit in.
While it is an older title, I’m still surprised at the quality and general smoothness of Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. World Stage on the Switch 2. It plays incredibly well, the online is generally smooth, and runs pretty great.
There’s one major drawback that prevents Fear the Timeloop from being a great game: for some reason, the developers cheaped out when it came to voice actors.
That’s kind of what this year’s version of The Show feels like: that it rolled off an assembly line without any attempt to make it new or interesting or different from last year’s version…which itself felt like a clone of the year before that. It’s really hard to say that, unless you’re coming to the franchise brand new, that there’s any reason to pick it up over any other version in the last few years.
While I’m not about to pretend that MindsEye is secretly a masterpiece, I think saying that it’s one of the worst games ever made is stretching it a little far. I know we’re in an age where everything has to be either one extreme or another, but there’s a massive range in between those two poles, and MindsEye fits somewhere along that spectrum.
I will not pretend that Marathon is a game for everyone. I don’t even think it’s a game for most people who enjoy FPS games, but… that does not stop it from being a great game in the end.
WWE 2K26 gameplay is top notch and matches play out better than they ever have from entrances, commentary, presentation and the matches themselves are all improved. It’s a shame that the Ringside Pass brings down the overall product and locks too much behind it.
Does it ever come close to matching Portal? Obviously not. But it doesn’t need to, either. Chromagun 2 may not do a whole lot new, but the fact that so many other games are out there now that are also copying Portal makes that easier to forgive.
Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection is everything I’d hoped for in a follow-up to the second game, so seeing it realized so well is nothing short of fantastic. With excellent characters, a decent story, an enjoyable gameplay loop with as much grinding as you want there to be, and a really gorgeous appearance and world, it’s a genuine must play for fans of turn-based RPGs.
Overall Tales of Berseria Remastered is one of the better Tales games in recent memory. If you have it on PS4, and have a PS5 that can play it, I would probably hold off, unless you really need the buttery smooth 60fps. If you don’t have the original, this is a great game to get started on.
Koei Tecmo has absolutely blown it out of the water with this release, so big props to the team behind it. When it comes to doing remakes well, I’d put this up on the pedestal alongside games like the Resident Evil remakes. It is an absolute must-play for survival horror fans, and if you’re curious on what survival horror looks like outside of your typical association, you’ll definitely want to check out Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake.
There’s a sense of wonder and silliness that not many other games share, and it’s enough to suck you in and keep you entertained right up to the end of the closing credits.
Super Battle Golf is the kind of crazy fun that you get from a good Nintendo party game like Mario Party or Mario Kart, but condensed into a fast-paced asynchronous golfing game.
If this is the first beat’em up you’ve picked up in a while, I’m sure you’ll have a great time. Although I have to admit for me, having played other beat’em ups prior to Scott Pilgrim EX, it feels like it leans on its IP a little too much and doesn’t really do anything that innovative.
