If you liked Portal you will probably like this one as well.

Quite the fun game, with randomly generated caves no excursion is like the other. Plenty of different objectives as well. Making the game re playable to no end.

Not much to say, its the Shepard Trilogy with all DLCs, updated to run smoothly on modern systems. If you never played a Mass Effect game, buy this. Its worth it.

A super relaxing game that can be played just for fun or to achieve a high score. Just really depends on the mood one is in.

This was the game that finally made me buy a PS4 back in the day. And it was worth every penny. The game looks absolutely beautiful, the M K controls are good and it's an awesome game overall.

Another meticulously crafted work by Kojima, best known for the Metal Gear series.

But even if you like his previous works, this one might not be for you.

The story is in typical Kojima fashion filled with twists and turns where you truly don't understand everything until the very end. And that is not the problem this game faces. But the pacing of the gameplay. After watching through the first hour or so of cutscenes you get put into the game world. And here is where the initial frustrations can start. It seemingly takes forever to progress. Once you are somewhere in the middle of the game and are pretty much free to do as you wish the game really opens up and becomes quite enjoyable. Still, with downsides, however. The combat feels quite boring and repetitive, unlike the last Metal Gear. Towards the end, the game once again suffers pacing issues. Progressing feels once again very tedious and stretched out.

If you can overcome these hurdles however, the game can be a lot of fun.

And while only mentioned briefly, the story is an absolute blast to experience, expertly voiced and mo-capped by quite a few famous names and wonderfully rendered in the Decima Engine that most might know from Horizon Zero Dawn.

P.S. The game also has a Conan O'Brien cameo

A short but amazing and fascinating game. The gameplay itself is very easy and straightforward while still offering enough depth to it to keep it challenging and fresh.
The story as the narrator wants you to experience it is quite straightforward as well.

But the fun of the game comes by defying and ignoring the commands of the narrator and you will start to uncover a very interesting meta story.

Some technical points: Even though the game is made by a chinese studio, the localisation is very well done. With only one weird translation at some point. The game itself runs very smooth and I've encountered zero bugs or crashes of any sort. The controls feel very responsive and intuitive.

Get a friend and a credit card if you never played it before.

Gets better with every season
