Easily the best Sonic game we've had in the longest time. However, it's not without its flaws. Final part of the game was 100% rushed and felt anticlimactic. Sonic's interactions with the other characters were amazing (thank you Ian Flynn). The callbacks to previous titles could not have made me happier as a Sonic fan. Great level design, great story, fun boss fights and an absolute banger of an OST. Really looking forward to that DLC. SEGA have something here, now they just need to perfect it. Sonic is my favorite video game character ever and Frontiers reminded me why.

Dope way to cap off the Norse saga. Amazing visuals, music and game play. Kinda wish I didn't burn through the game but I couldn't help it cause the story was so good. Last act was insane as well. Score might change once I make more progress in the post game though. Can't wait to see what Santa Monica do next.

A fun musou take on the Dragon Quest verse. Gets really corny with all the "power of friendship" stuff towards the end though. Very repetitive too, but the colorful cast and interesting side content make up for it. Def worth a play through if you're an established DQ fan.

Kinda conflicted on this one. This would've been a top 3 pokemon game if it dropped anywhere else other than the Switch. Didn't run into any major glitches outside of some frame drops thankfully. It's a shame cause Game Freak could've really made something special if Nintendo weren't breathing down their necks. Regardless, it's still an amazing entry for the series. Fun, new pokemon to choose from, interesting story lines and a surprisingly fire OST. Good but could've been way better.

The post game content is what really saved this game from being completely average for me. Story is nothing crazy and the characters are just okay. The gameplay is fun but only when you get all the party members and dig deep into their skill trees. Still a decent entry for the series regardless. I also can't give any game that has the GOAT Hootle in it anything less than 4 stars.
Fun to play with people. Has some cool features like multiple routes and an achievement system, but nothing to write home about. I don't remember OG HOTD being this short either. Sega and Nintendo really should've dropped extra bread to include some light guns with the game or something. An attempt to bring a classic into the modern era that just ends up falling a little short.
