Resident Evil 4 Remake
The original Resident Evil 4 is one of my favorite games of all time and I have beaten it countless times. When I saw Capcom was remaking it, I questioned why since the original holds up well to this day. After playing the remake, I am still not convinced this game needed to be remade. …

Super Mario Bros. Wonder
The 3D Mario games continue to innovate with each entry however, the 2D Mario games have been stagnant for close to a decade. I am happy to report that Super Mario Bros. Wonder finally brings back that creativity and innovation to the 2D Mario games in spades. The game brings back this creativity through the…

Baldur’s Gate 3
Baldur’s Gate 3 is a once in a generation game with a level of quality and innovation that is rare for the video game industry. This is a game that advances the industry and hopefully will influence future video games. I see countless games being marketed as giving the player choice; however, these games mostly…

Metroid Dread
I have always been more of a fan of the Metroid Prime games than the 2D entries of the franchise. Dread was pretty much my first foray into the 2D entries in the series. I came away from the experience mostly positive but also not without frustrations. First off, this is easily the best looking…

Bayonetta 3
While Bayonetta 3 is my least favorite entry in the series, it still provides the over the top action that fans of the series crave. This entry shakes up the formula by adding a new protagonist Viola. Unfortunately, Viola’s chapters are the weakest and she just is not as fun to play as Bayonetta is. …

Kirby and the Forgotten Land
After playing the atrocity that was Kirby Star Allies, I had almost lost hope that this franchise that I grew up playing would ever be good again. Thankfully, the Forgotten Land is a great return to form that brings Kirby into the 3D realm. Do not confuse this as Kirby’s version of Super Mario Odyssey.…

Star Wars: Jedi Survivor
Jedi Survivor is yet another sequel that takes the approach of bigger equals better. This is a rare case of this approach working. For the most part. The planets are large semi open worlds with tons of secrets and hidden bosses throughout. There are side missions that are mostly worth doing. The combat is still…

Vampire Survivors
Vampire Survivors is easily the most addicting game I have played in a long time. The game is an inversion of a bullet hell shooter. Instead of dodging bullets and attacking, you are the one creating the bullet hell. If you are on a controller you need only use the left stick to move. The…

Sifu
Do you like the movie Oldboy? Would you be interested in a game that evokes the best action set pieces in that movie without the incest? If you answered yes to any of these questions, this is the game for you. In Sifu you are a martial artist on a revenge mission. The combat in…

Pikmin 4
I grew up playing the Pikmin games and I have many childhood memories of playing the games and being blown away at the creativity of it all. Pikmin 4 is a solid entry in the franchise that may be a bit divisive for some fans. This is the most accessible Pikimin and the least challenging…
