Supergiant's experiment with RPG mechanics, storytelling, and sports games proves to be a really fun and compelling experience. The lovable cast of characters pushes the plot forward and makes the player really think about their decisions when it comes to gameplay. The music is by far some of my favorite of Supergiant's work. It is by far the sleeper hit out of Supergiant's small library.
Marvel's Avengers is a very disappointing game. With the roster of characters and the world of Marvel as a basis for a videogame seems like a recipe for success, however, Crystal Dynamics squanders this on a by the numbers live service title. The characters play very much the same with much of the mechanical complexity that would come being bogged down by the standard beat 'em up combat. The story is the best part of the title, but how quickly you are hit with the basic story you realize that it's not much either. If you see it on sale for cheap it's an ok way to kill sometime.
The Evil Within is a solid third-person shooter with a few good horror elements, but it feels that it lacks much of the charm of Shinji Mikami's usual flair with games. Having played this years after the original release, however, I can definitely say that The Evil Within is definitely worth your time. The gameplay in most cases is really enjoyable with very few noticable issues running on current gen hardware. Alongside that the games unique pool of weapons makes it stand out. If you were coming to find the next magnum opus of horror games keep looking, but if you want a cheap B-movie experience of a game, I say pick it up.
