This arc was alright, although the side stories really were a hit or miss.

The spiritual successor to Jet Set Radio and it is so much fun. The story is intriguing, the levels are good (besides pyramid island) and the highlight is the music (NAGANUMA PEAK). The movement can feel slow from time to time.
XCOM x card game x Marvel. Love the free roaming bits actually, it is nice to get to know the lore and characters. The story starts slow but picks up later on. I wish I could romance in this game. Underrated game for sure.
The latest entry and the weakest in my opinion. The locations are cool but it gets tiring after a while. Different endings for different characters are cool. Boss fights are boring as heck. FNAF is funny. Incest huh?

Good spinoff that gets a bit repetitive by the end. Erina and Toshiro are great characters and the best part of the game. The combat is clean and sometimes cool mechanics get introduced. Boss fights are well done and very creative.
inaccurate controls combined with okayish level design make this game not the best platformer
A bit better than the first game but still eh. The new mechanics are fun, especially the new board levels but still unprecise controls. The story is alright, I think I prefer the story of the first game.
Movement and soundtrack top, everything else a flop. The world kinda sucks, it is too shiny and the story was so boring, I stopped caring after a while. The new movement gimmicks are fun, and so are the dashes.

My Game of the Year.
Such an improvement on the other two great games. First of all, the story. Kraven the Hunter is an amazing villain and I think the arc is great BUT the whole symbiote/Venom arc is top tier. We don't need an Eddie to make a great Venom arc, Harry made totally sense here. It's a refreshing take. I thought the venom arc was slow at first (but they focused on Kraven which makes sense) but it picked up pretty fast. All the boss fights during the story are amazing, especially the last venom fight but also Miles vs Peter. Peter ripping off the symbiote is a top moment in this game. Also playing as Venom???? HELLO????
The gameplay is a lot of fun. Nothing can top SM2 when it comes to movement. It feels so smooth, you can feel every swing and the wing suit is a great addition. Also the combat is a lot of fun. I am glad they reduced the gadget wheel because it felt kinda bloated in the first game and only four gadgets are great. The different abilites are well animated and just fun to use.
The side stuff is not repetitive like in the first game. The flame sidequest ties in very well with the story of this game and the first one. EMF one was very emotional. What surprised me was the Spiderbot quest... Great tie-in to an amazing movie series!
The only miss the game has are the suits. While Miles suits are mostly great, Peters aren't. There are too many MCU suits and a lot of them could have been variants of others.
If you liked SM1 and MM, you will LOVE this one.

i don't know what they were thinking about when creating this racing game but they made sure it's worse than Jak 2
2023
Great premise aged well but the controls didn't. The cars are pain in the ass to drive. The levels are well designed but too big sometimes, the AI doesn't find you. All the endings are cool but I wish they were actual cutscenes.
2004
Better than Jak 2 but it's just not Jak 1.
The Wasteland is a much better place than Haven City. The guns are fun to use, the story is alright. Kinda hate Ashelin. The villain is very weak. Different cars are fun to drive. I still think the series went into the wrong direction, I do not like this open world mission style. I much prefer the style of the first game.
