Red Faction Guerilla ReMARStered is far from perfect, but it's fun, and it's proof that not every game needs to have a serious, super in-depth narrative to please.
It's almost there in many respects which make the prospect of a sequel awfully alluring but it's executed well enough to make it a good game in its own right.
Sonic Mania Plus is probably what fans of Sonic Mania want, which was probably also what fans of old Sonic games wanted.
On the one hand, it's really cool that Panic Button was able to port Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus to Nintendo Switch. .... On the other hand, the only thing the Switch version has going for it is that it's portable. In every other regard, Wolfenstein 2 is better on other platforms.
Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy is a loving remaster of a series of fan-favorite games. If you need a dose of 32-bit nostalgia, or if you want to see where one of gaming's iconic characters started you can't go wrong here.
New Gundam Breaker is a game that suffers from a multitude of issues.
Fundamentally Mario Aces Tennis gets things right much more often than it gets them wrong.
If you're a fan of puzzle games, rhythm games, or just chilling out with a game that gives more than it demands, I heartily recommend Lumines Remastered. It's a great addition to the Switch library and an excellent starting point for those who have never experienced the franchise before.
The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit captures the awkward nostalgia of being a child quite well even if it falters in other areas.
Bethesda could have written Prey off with no further support, or released a DLC that just did more of the same, but it didn't. Prey: Mooncrash is an excellent expansion to a great game and adds enough of a twist to feel fresh and exciting.
Unfortunately, I can't recommend this game as the payout of eye candy isn't worth the time you have to put in slogging through hell behind the eyes of a depressingly slow husk of a dead man.
Jurassic World Evolution doesn't allow for the same levels of detail as Planet Coaster, where players could build elaborate constructions limited only by their imagination.
This collection isn't for everyone, and you'll likely not play every one of the 12 games intensely. However, it's worth picking up if you're a fan of the series or of 2D fighting games in general, and even my time in the weaker entries of the franchise was filled with nostalgia.
There's still a significant player population in ESO, and if you're an Elder Scrolls fan, or just looking to get into a game you can play for a while, Summerset is a good fit for you.
This is a light package that never reaches the heights of Evolution Studio's previous games, but for those seeking an arcade racer offering quick thrills, it does the trick.
The underlying game mechanics require a certain amount of suspension of disbelief, but those that can will find an entertaining penny dreadful.
It's a much bigger, more polished game than the first in almost every way and a worthy successor.
For those who are already fans of the series, Dark Souls Remastered is just a polished version of an already great game, but for me, it was a bit more special. With the technical issues eliminated, Dark Souls can shine and is a much more satisfying experience.
For those like me who have enjoyed Quantic Dream's games as a guilty pleasure, this is the studio's first release where the story meets its ambition.
There's still plenty of fun to be had in State of Decay 2, though, especially if you liked the original.
