Pokémon Pinball
This was probably one of my go-to Gameboy games, and I completely forgot about it until someone else's review popped up in my feed (thanks C3 you rock). Capturing Pokemon and upgrading your Pokeball - concepts that were already familiar from Red and Blue - were creatively modified to fit into a completely different playing experience in pinball. The onboard rumble pack was a nice touch too.

I don’t get it. I spent so much time in menus that I felt like I was at work. The gun fights were cool. Bethesda needs to change their model to keep me from missing Skyrim in every other Bethesda game I play.

I think this game knows what it is and it does that really well. Super fun, accessible way to shoot up zomboz. The mechanics can get deeper if you want, but it doesn’t matter for having a good time. Cross-platform is a huge plus in my book.

This game looks amazing. The controls feel snappy and responsive, and it’s a logical progression of @ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed Black Flag mechanics. But the islands are sort of devoid of life, making exploration not that rewarding.

I appreciate the tongue-in-cheek direct copy of Pokemon, but also kind of hate it for that reason. The game is also a little clunky and reminds me of some of the creative maps in Fortnite, complete with bugs and graphical familiarities.

This release on Switch was plagued with bugs and tough controls. I love the concept - playing through the games and things the characters do on the show, but it was functionally poorly executed which was a real let down.

Risk of Rain
Just finished Risk of Rain Returns, which is a remake of Risk of Rain. The game definitely holds its own even 10 years after coming out. Even in a 2D world, the level design is creative and leaves room for exploration and discovery. Some items can only be unlocked after completing achievements, so there is always a reason to come back for another run.

I'm a sucker for rogue-likes, and this one is no exception. I really appreciate the advanced customization that becomes unlockable the more you play and find. The worlds are cleverly crafted with seemingly endless amounts of hidden gems and corners to explore, which encourages upgrading characters' transversal skills and always leaves me saying "just one more run".

In a time of open-world games, a linear adventure is generally a good refresher. Some of the combat is repetitive and unchallenging, which I suppose is the nature of a hack ‘n slash. It’s fun and over the top, but leaves something to be desired for being replayable.

This game is so fricking good. If you love Elden Ring and Dark Souls and Bloodbourne and Sekiro, this game is like the sappiest, most haunting love letter to all of those games. The combat, weapon types, and game mechanics are all just so smooth and stunning. In some ways, it’s a lot easier than From Soft games, but in others, it’s a lot harder. Much bigger emphasis on perfect blocks, a little more simplified stat system, and an incredible interpretation of the Pinocchio fairytale if it was written by H.P. Lovecraft. This game is a must-play for anyone waiting on Elden Ring DLC.

I was a huge fan of Gauntlet Legends back in the day on N64 and later Baldur's Gate on PS2. The top-down, dungeon crawling, magic casting madness was a ton of fun, and Diablo IV feels like a nostalgic nod to those origins while also keeping it fresh with flexible leveling up/respecing AND a great story.

Arguably the best Potter of the video game series. The controls were polished and refined with content from the books not included in the movie.

Reading about WWII in school while playing this game was an interesting way to spark my imagination and love for history. Asking questions like "What did it look like? What was happening? How did people respond?" and seeing them answered virtually made a level of respect and empathy for the people who actually went through it possible.

Not many reboots reinvent themselves for the better. The old adage, “If it’s not broke, don’t fix it” comes to mind. But I low-key wouldn’t be mad if all of the GoW games were remade in this style. Incredible, emotional storytelling, addictive and variable combat, and rich lore all rocket this game to one of my favorites I’ve ever played.

Oh man, where to begin with this one... it has just about everything I could ever want in a Star Wars RPG. Nice progression system, thoughtful level design that remains true to the story, creative enemies, explosive move sets, and a PvP mode of JUST lightsaber battles with characters not playable in the main quest. Spent many, many hours on this one.

Really good Souls-like adventure without all of the specs and weapon scaling and intense difficulty. Dare I say, Dark Souls for people who don't like Dark Souls? The weapons and abilities are fairly straightforward, but that doesn't seem to matter given the variety of enemies and flipping beautiful art style. Highly recommend as an online co-op adventure as well.

Really interesting concept for a game. Fun gameplay but the dialogue and diplomacy got tiring when all I wanted to do was progress in the story and fight more enemies. The environment was a bit too copy/paste for my taste, in particular the hubs in the different cities were all the same layout. Still worth playing.

I had a lot of fun working through the campaign on this game. Great co-op experience. The progression is unique in that you don't get every boss or unlockable on your first playthrough. The area progression is procedurally generated with the same general storyline, so it feels different each time and has a ton of replay value.

It’s really incredible to see how far MK has come since SNES. I loved the concept back then and love it even more today. All of the characters, unlockables, tracks, items - Nintendo has been ever consistent with this game and knows what its players have come to expect. Accessible to all, mastered by few, and always fun.

Personally I would trade the graphics improvements to not have the health nerf every time you die. Because you die a lot. And less health means more dying, which means less health, which means more dying, which means (help I'm stuck) less health, which means more dying -dies-.

Super fun puzzles and exploration - Square Enix did a wonderful job capturing the nostalgic elements of "Tomb Raider". I thoroughly enjoyed the unrefined take on Lara which played nicely on Alicia Vikander's portrayal of her.

This is a great addition to the AC franchise. Gorgeous and compelling, playing as a freakin' axe-wielding Viking had me loving exploring England. While on par with the "rinse and repeat" model we know from all of the AC titles, this one is definitely a worthy addition to the lineup.

And then there was fire. DS3 is easily the best of the Dark Souls games imho - everything from how the world is connected and overlaps to the weapons, specs, combat, and weapon arts leave this title begging to be played again and again. The game makes several improvements on the franchise over DS2, doing away with the cruel health nerf every time you die. The bosses are punishing, the world is forlorn and beautiful, and the player has to discover for themselves their purpose and next steps.

Infinite is a great installment to the Halo franchise and the campaign feels like a love letter to the OG and Halo 2, but the lack of multiplayer content leaves something to be desired. Hope 343 has more lined up later on for this title.

What started as a controversy with micro transactions lead to a robust and hecking incredible Star Wars experience... eventually. Some of the drawbacks of Dice's first Battlefront (ex no single player content) were addressed, and more modes allow for diverse gameplay. Couch co-op was one of the biggest selling points on the OG Battlefronts, and I still missed it in this game.

The souls-like elements were a perfect addition to this game. I loved the combat mechanics and discovering shortcuts, but the map layouts without any sort of fast travel made retracing your steps difficult. That said, getting a perfect blaster deflection is one of the most satisfying things I've done in a game!

This game was groundbreaking in its Galactic Conquest mode. Playing through multiple eras on either side, in space, with heroes and villains, and in key locations still makes this game one of the few that manage to capture the magic and wonder that I felt when watching 'A New Hope' for the first time with my dad.

The Skywalker Saga does an incredible job paying homage to the Star Wars universe, even including an Easter egg for the chart-topping "Seagulls: Stop It Now" by the mad geniuses over at A Bad Lip Reading featuring Luke and Yoda on Dagobah. Spending hours destroying the environment, experiencing the fighting styles of Darth Maul to Mace Windu, and the ever-hilarious cut scenes have all of the charm and magic I expect from a LEGO Star Wars game while also bringing something new to the franchise. This is a must-play game for any Star Wars fan.
