Game Review, GotG, Guardians of the Galaxy, Marvel's GOTG, Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, Playstation 5, PS5, Videogame -

The newest edition to the superhero video game collection, Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy from Square Enix does an amazing job on a lot of points. The story rivals that of the movies. Both in how it felt, as well as how it was executed. It had all the classic GOTG characteristics, from the 80's feeling, to the copyrighted songs we all love, and the constant "I'm part of a team" mentality. With that being said, I was disappointed that you only play as Star-Lord. Was hoping for a switch between characters type game. The gameplay was somewhat addicting, but...

Game Review, Life is Strange, Life is Strange: True Colors, LiS, Playstation 4, Playstation 5, PS4, PS5, Videogame -

The return of Square Enix's hit title: Life is Strange: True Colors lives up to the reputation the Life is Strange series has. It's still one of the best (my self labeled genre) Super Narrative games. It's only rivaled by Quantic Dreams (the creators of Detroit, Heavy Rain etc...) And TellTale. These games hit you hard from the music, the decisions you have to make and the consequences that come from it. It's not made to be full of action, it's made to tell a story. So if you're in for a story driven experience, it doesn't get much better...

Game Review, Playstation 5, PS5, The Medium, Videogame -

The psychological horror from Bloober Team, The Medium feels like you're playing Silent Hill without any guns. Which... isn't actually a bad thing. It introduces an interesting narrative, where you play the same character, simultaneously between two realities. Which gives way to great puzzle mechanics. It has a cool story, but the gameplay is kind of slow. Though if you've played any Silent Hill game, then you'll be used to it. I would really love this game, but I can't help but feel like it's missing that little umph to get it to that point. Like if you're eating Mcdonalds,...

Game Review, Kena, Kena: Bridge of Spirits, Playstation 4, Playstation 5, PS4, PS5, Review, Videogame -

Kena: Bridge of Spirits from indie developer "Ember Lab" is breath of fresh air. It's complete masterpiece. From it's hack n' dodge fighting style, to it's empathic music, and it's incredible cinematic cutscenes. Playing it, I constantly forgot it was made by an indie company. It feels like a classic, almost like Jak and Daxter. Especially with it's semi-clunky gameplay. Which would normally lose points over, but it adds to the nostalgic feeling. If this game was made by a top dev, say Naughty Dog, it' would've been a 10/10 it's ONLY down point for me, is how short it...

Deathloop, Game Review, Playstation 5, PS5, Review, Videogame -

Bethesda's new hit title: Deathloop got me excited from the get go. It looked like a funky Dishonored game, and I loved Dishonored. Upon playing and discovering it was a Rouge-like game, kinda depleted a few cool points for me. Personally, I don't like Rouge-Like/Lite games because nowadays developers use it as an excuse to charge top prices for what could be a short game. Proof in the pudding is many gamers reported getting the platinum trophy only after a few days after the games initial release. Despite my bias for Rouge-like/lite games, I actually really like this game, not...
