It’s hard deciding whether this game or New Leaf is the best in the franchise but you can’t deny that New Horizons brings a lot of quality of life improvements that make going back to older games a bit of a struggle. I always come back to the Animal Crossing franchise when I want to wind down and relax and the island atmosphere makes that feeling even better in New Horizons.

I’m not really a multiplayer shooter guy but I always have fun coming back to Fortnite when they do a collaboration I’m interested in. Zero Build really saved the game for me, which is ironic since the building mechanic was what originally made the game unique. Still a good time with friends.

Persona 5 felt like a phase of my life with how long I’ve been playing it for. Good thing the game is fantastic with an excellent story, characters, gameplay, and soundtrack. I definitely understand all the praise it received when it first released. It’s probably now going to be on a list of my favorite RPGs.

Only did the Shovel of Hope campaign but Shovel Knight still remains one of the best 2D NES inspired platformers I’ve ever played. Very much inspired by the Mega Man games and Ducktales but with more modern gameplay improvements that make it a very fun time.

Crazy how the first Yoshi game is still the best.

I’m usually not the biggest fan of puzzle games but this one was a good time. Not worth the full price but if you can find it on sale I’d say it’s worth a shot!

Good game to play when you want something a little more relaxed. The mystery surrounding the story keeps you intrigued to keep pushing on and there are some small discoveries you can make along the way.

Part 2 continues the brilliant story of Last of Us telling a tale that changes Ellie. The gameplay is greatly improved and just feels a lot smoother to control. Helps that the remaster boosts the frame-rate while also introducing a new mode in No Return. Overall just a better version of one of my favorite games.

This was always my favorite kart racer as a kid aside from Mario Kart. It has a great sense of speed and if you love drifting then it has a great system to master. There are a lot of references to Sega's library of games. I own this on Steam now and the only thing it's missing is the Metal Sonic DLC pack, hopefully one day this can get a rerelease on modern platforms.

I never played the original but this remake was a great way to experience the game for the first time. Story was charming and is a good way to introduce someone new to rpg games.

Honestly aside from performance boost and some extra characters this game doesn’t really do anything new. The campaign cuts out a lot of cool fights. Gameplay is still good but just feels like wasted potential. There is a new Boruto story for fans of that series but it wasn’t something I could get into.

The remake is the best way to experience The Last of Us. I still consider it to be my favorite story in video games. The gameplay is updated to be more similar to the improvements in Part 2. Also includes the Left Behind DLC for more backstory on Ellie's past before the events of the game.
