My favorite game in my favorite series. RE4 Wii Edition is the first RE game I ever played. I've played this game on PS3, PS4, & PS5, but consider the Wii version with the motion controls the best version. Motion controls were perfectly integrated and it had all the additional content like Mercenaries, Separate Ways, and Assignment Ada.
This is action horror. Definitely moves in a different direction from previous games in the series, but this still has enough horror aspects to be called horror. I've heard from multiple people who have played this game that don't play too many horror games that they consider it scary.
Gameplay, environment, and enemy design are A+. Final Boss could've been more memorable. Shifting the needle more towards horror could have worked for me as well. But this game is perfect for me and probably the most replayable game of all time.

Been playing this on the PS+ membership and it has been fun. There are still things that PS2 wrestling games did that the 2k games do not, which can be frustrating. Hell in a Cell matches were better. Different areas backstage. Just more freedom overall.
But this is still a fun game. Universe mode is cool. Hopefully the roster can expand more. The roster in WWE 2k16 was probably my favorite of the 2k series.

Incredible sequel. After the complete switch up that GoW 2018 was, playing Ragnarok definitely wasn't as much of a shock. But they polished up on what they built and made an amazing game. Very happy with the narrative, gameplay was exhilarating, and performances were all great. It did feel like some lines had some MCU-movie vibes though, and I could definitely use less of that going forward.
Felt like this game had more annoying enemies than 2018, but still appreciated the enemy variety. Fantastic game that lived up to the hype.

No one does remakes like Capcom. Masterfully respects the original while improving and updating multiple aspects. This game is pretty much the perfect Resident Evil game. Atmosphere is unmatched. Managing your resources is a necessity. I played this game so much the game isn't scary to me anymore. It's my comfort game. The score is beautiful.
First time playing through, you can get lost pretty easily. My first playthrough took me over 10 hours. Once you get a hang of it and start replaying the game, you can definitely get that under 4 if not shorter.

The 4th final fantasy game I've played (FF7R, FF15, Crisis Core) and this one is challenging FF7R for my favorite.
I'm relatively new to the series so this game being more action-focused really captivated me compared to others.
Devil May Cry-like combat is fantastic. The score is incredible, like all FF games. The story was very good, even with some oddly paced main quests.
Boss fights in any AAA going forward will be compared to this game. Off the top of my head there are 5 boss fights that would be the best boss fights in any other series, let alone other games.
Side quests are better than FF15, but still very up and down. Some are full, and some are well worth it.

Another stellar remake from Capcom. RE2 original definitely handled the interaction between the two campaigns better. How they handled it in RE2 remake was a bit clumsy. Outside of that, they captured the spirit while still allowing this remake to stand on its own merits. I like remakes that border close to reimaginings, so I love this game. True survival horror. Every time I dive back into this game I'm amazed again.

Love so much about this game, especially its traditional style of survival horror. Incredible aesthetic and a cryptic story. Great character design. Good soundtrack. Did a great job with resource management.
Game didn't hold your hand with where to go and how to solve puzzles. Some of the best puzzles in a horror game I've played in a while.
Could've used a couple more boss fights and the enemy encounters could've been slightly more challenging.
Overall, they did amazing work with this one.

Have tried to play it again recently and couldn't do it. Ugly game. At the time it came out I thought it at least had good shooting and you could finally move your character. But now, it just feels wonky. I would rather just not move like in RE4 or RE5 than feel how it does in RE6. Story is bad. Not scary. Not fun. RE5 wasn't scary either but at least it was fun and had a story I got engaged with. RE6 is just a dumpster fire. Thankfully it allowed them to course correct afterwards.
