Far Cry 5
Far Cry 5 upped the gameplay of the series in satisfying ways. The entire campaign was finally playable in co-op, and the premise had potential. In the end, it misses the mark severely story-wise, but it’s a really fun shooter. It isn’t the best experience on any Xbox console but...
Priced at $30 and only lasting two or three hours I wouldn’t normally recommend the game unless it was something unique and special. As a father of two, this story hit me in a way that few others have, though. If you’re looking for a game that is gorgeous, heartbreaking,...
Featuring little in the ways of improvements with only the base resolution and framerate changing, and lots in the ways of game-breaking bugs, it’s impossible to recommend this $30 broken mess of a game at launch. Once things are patched up and hopefully working better it might be some couch...
Few games have made me feel a true sense of nostalgia. I wasn’t the biggest fan of Hot Wheels growing up, but I had my fair share. Seeing Bone Shaker and Rip Rod in full-size as I jump 2000 feet through one of if not the best-looking video game landscapes...
Bright Memory: Infinite is a short but fun big dumb action game. It doesn’t have much if anything in the way of replayability, but it feels pretty good, looks great, and as long as the price isn’t too bad it’s worth checking out. Not only for the solid, overpowered feeling...
That’s it! What a long list of games in this well-put-together package. It’s a bit light on content outside of the games, but every option you could want is here, things run great, and the full package is a decent value. If you’ve got the itch to play through a...
In conclusion, if you are curious about this game, I think you should just jump in and experience it. If for nothing else besides going through this surreal and bizarre story. It’s definitely not the best story you will read, but I always find the journey through visual novel games...
Graphically the game looks pretty darned nice and it ran great for me on my Series X. Both with a purchase and with Game Pass you get the game on the Windows Store on PC as well with full cross-progression, saves, and buy. I was unable to test it before...
At $9.99 if you are jonesing for a hit of that old-time low-budget arcade nostalgia, I still can’t recommend this game. With a bland, uninteresting, and predictable story, repetitive and awful feeling combat, poor enemy variety, and the maddening decision to have no save system mixed with constant freezes and...
Madison
MADiSON is a psychological horror game without any psychological horror. It has jump scares galore, and at least on PC, it’s also a completely broken mess for me before launch. I’d advise taking a wait-and-see approach for both PC and Console due to all of these issues. Priced at $35.99...
House Flipper
House Flipper is really fun and it’s a great addition to Game Pass. It’s an Xbox Play anywhere title and available on both console and PC. The UI works best on the latter but the game is still a hell of a relaxing time on the former. Grab your bucket...
Cuphead: The Delicious Last Course is an incredible experience that everyone who possibly can should play through. The animation work is consistently jaw-dropping, with an imagination to it you have to see to truly understand. Ms. Chalice and the new weaponry and charms are an excellent addition to what was...
