Race small and sometimes blindingly fast RC cars around a series of equally small tracks. Controls are nice and there's a variety of tracks/cars to choose from. Going for 3 stars on every race and competing in the leaderboards are the only 2 things you can do in the game though. Decent time killer, not much else.

Puzzle platformer based on swapping colors to make elements of the levels dis/appear. Both the puzzles and the platforming are simple and rarely frustrating, and are accompanied by some monologues in between. Can feel monotone at times, 100%/plat just takes a lot of time. Abandoned because it sometimes crashes and causes hard system reboots on the Ps Vita.

While this game was directed by Shinji Mikami, the person behind the beloved Resident Evil 4, I can't help but feel like this is a cheap imitation of Resident Evil 4. Controls horrible and the camera is inches away from being up the detective's ass. The attempt at horror/thriller felt VERY forced to the point of being close to cringe. Can't recommend this in good faith.

Definitive first-person parkour experience in a futuristic dystopian landscape. Striking art style and great movement, the other facets are leaning towards OK.Tons of speedrun potential. I loved and completed the game on PS3 multiple times. PC port houses too many issues/bugs to be enjoyable, only got through 2 levels before dropping it. Overall, one of the semi-hidden gems of 7th gen. Console for the best experience.

Masterful recreation of the original trilogy on the Playstation. The world and character renditions are incredible, the gameplay feel is true to the old games. Voice acting and OST are a joy to listen to. Games still are great collectathon platformers in their own right. Prime example of how an old IP should be remade. Also got each game to completion, fun time going around collecting stuff.

FPS adaptation of the novel of the same name by Dmitry Glukhovsky. Not great as an adaptation with many of the book's facets either glossed over or missing completely. Presentation of the story was not enjoyable in my opinion, and I can't say I like silent protagonist Artyom. Gameplay is on the better side of OK, run of the mill 7th gen shooter. Atmosphere/vibe when there's no dialogue and it's just ambience is best. Good pick if you're a fan of Stalker. Would recommend picking up the book for the more complete experience.

You have everything. Arcade combat with brutal actions, a well-written serious crime drama, wacky as all hell side stories and minigames, TWO open worlds with an abundance of content. I never got bored once. It's an amazing series to get into and this is the best place to start.

The environment/graphics are too shiny, some effects like the cop lights blind you, car sounds are mid and the live action cutscenes are their own creature. Always online so it will boot you whenever it wants, even during cutscenes. I'd gravitate towards the older games.

Point-and-click mess. Gameplay is regular fare but the writing and humour are so infuriatingly bad I had to drop the game past Chapter 1. Farts doesn't mean funny.

Casual trivia party game. Your phone is your controller. Can get repetitive. Horrible spiritual successor to Buzz.

It's a football game. Only gets a higher rating than the other football games I've played because the Greek commentary is funny.

Run of the mill military FPS, from a time when military FPS games were a dime a dozen. And it's not even an enjoyable one at that.
