Saros
Moving, shooting, improving (both in stats and skill), winning, and even losing is an unequivocal joy, and I only wish I could write this final sentence faster so I can hurry up and get back to planet Carcosa and attempt another run.
Gothic 1 Remake
Just like the beloved original, Gothic 1 Remake has a brutal learning curve and is rough around the edges, but it’s also an outstanding example of updating an old classic without diluting what made it great.
Despite the successes of The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales, I can’t help but feel it’s a game that doesn’t make full use of its time-travel potential, both in its overworld and in its story.
Forza Horizon 6
Even for a series built on delivering approachable racing action that appeals to both newcomers and hardcore players, Forza Horizon 6 impresses at each turn, delivering one of the greatest racing games of this generation.
Although it may not reach the heights of other narrative-puzzle contemporaries released since Call of the Sea, Call of the Elder Gods is still an entertaining test for your noggin, wrapped in an adequately engaging Lovecraft-inspired story.
Even with my dissatisfaction with stealth and some minor glitches, the latest LEGO Batman is a rain-slicked success.
Despite its fantastic core battle system, poor game direction and an overbearing free-to-play structure keep Pokémon Champions from reaching its full potential.
Yoshi and the Mysterious Book plays like a unique puzzle game with Yoshi aesthetics, and the result is a largely rewarding experience that rarely challenged me, but didn’t have a problem delivering the charm.
Halo: Campaign Evolved
Even stripped of its multiplayer, this return trip to the original Halo nails the fun and chaos that made the series a landmark game.
Splatoon Raiders
Though Splatoon’s single-player content has always been underappreciated, Splatoon Raiders makes it difficult to ignore, shining a bright light on the series’ oft-slept-on side.
College Football 27’s updates expand on the series’ highlight reel, even if some egregious lowlights threaten to tarnish its legacy.
Rhythm Heaven Groove
Rhythm Heaven Groove is not my favorite in the franchise, but it makes me just as happy, proud, anxious, and angry as all the previous games in the series.
