Temtem
Temtem looks great, as its vivid and lively colors make its world feel exciting and adventurous. The creature designs for the various Temtem are quite well-done, as there’s a lot of creativity put into how they look. With the wide variety of creatures that are eventually presented to players, everyone...
Mortal Kombat 11: Ultimate
Finally, there’s the visuals, which are gloriously gory on the PS5. The native 4K resolution makes every bloody attack feel that much more visceral while looking better than ever. The load times are wonderfully brisk compared to the previous generation load screens, which I always appreciate greatly. Throw in the...
Visually, Melody of Memory is a bit strange. It uses the PS2/PSP models for most of its characters, except in the end. It makes sense in a way since this isn’t a main title, but I would have liked to see them use the sharp Kingdom Hearts III models throughout....
Despite having such a simple visual style, Astro looks great. The clear water on the Cooling Beach looks sharp and gorgeous, as do the various weather effects and backgrounds of each stage. Throw in some very catchy music that is themed around whatever level you’re in, and you have some...
Yakuza: Like a Dragon
Visually, Like a Dragon is stunning to look at. The faces look vividly realistic, which makes the over-the-top goofiness even better. The costume designs for each job are a lot of fun, as are the NPCs in each substory. The voice acting is excellent in both languages, though I prefer...
Like Man of Medan, Little Hope is gorgeous to look at. The character models are naturally the spitting-image of their actors, while for the most part, the performances are spot-on. There are some rough performances throughout though, alternating between hammy and wooden lines here and there. It adds a certain...
I like the new visual style for Origin, and the blood effects are suitably over-the-top. The voice acting is fittingly hammy, jumping between melodramatic shouting and overly serious delivery of silly lines. Further adding to the B-movie charm is the very inconsistent lip-syncing. Characters cut each other off to the...
Postal Guy’s voice is fantastic, as there’s a reason it’s become so iconic to hear Postal Guy say the edgiest stuff with his gloriously mellow voice. Some of the random quotes from civilians can be pretty fun too, as they’re delivered with more than enough ham to be entertaining. The...
The visuals of Kart Racers 2 are suitably cartoony, with all the characters adhering to a fairly unified artstyle. It works well, as each character still retains their original charm and style without clashing with one another when put side-by-side. I do wish there were voice clips for each character,...
Mafia: Definitive Edition
Visually, Mafia: Definitive Edition looks excellent, as it updates the visuals of the original Mafia without feeling foreign to the original vision. The characters and environments all look quite realistic, and the new voices for each character fit perfectly. The music is also fantastic, balancing excitement with slower more tragic...
Cyber Hook
The visuals and audio are excellent, striking a strong balance between relaxing nostalgia and electric energy. The platforms and backgrounds are vibrant and colorful while the music is hard-hitting and fast-paced techno. It perfectly fits the breakneck atmosphere of Cyber Hook, as it’s quite colorful when you’re flying by at...
Marvel's Avengers
The Final Word Marvel’s Avengers is an all-around fun title that does justice to the Avengers name. Some of the features feel tacked-on and the framerate can be inconsistent, but the excellent story, enjoyable character building, and endlessly entertaining multiplayer make Avengers quite mighty in its own right.
