The best Halo single-player experience on PC so far, although I've yet to play Halo 4. Gunfights feel great and the difficulty is balanced well on heroic with one or two fights being exceptions. There are no annoying enemies, the levels are mostly interesting. The plot and the missions are not artificially lengthened like in some previous parts. Characters are likable and not as strongly military clichés like in ODST, which is good since you often have allies in fights.
A solid take on the Battle Royale. It's just a little too sweaty for this old dad gamer.

The platforming missions are incredible and on par with N64, GameCube, and Switch era Nintendo. The missions that require motion control in the suit are on par with Wii and WiiU era Nintendo.
Sony should make Astro their mascot and continue to explore Playstation history and characters with more small scale games like this.

It’s an anime, a life sim, an RPG, oh hell, its Persona 5. In this game you become Joker, a Japanese high schooler trying to get by and change the hearts of those who exert their power over others. The art, animation, voice-acting, and style are so incredibly unique and deeply influenced by anime. The repetitive music adds a ton to transport you to a slice of Tokyo that you just want to inhabit.
Here's the thing, as a dad gamer, not having an easy pause and save system makes what could be a long and fruitful relationship end up on the shelf. I am putting this game down, not because I am over it, but because I cannot fit it into my life that needs to be paused at a moments whim. This came out in 2020, adopt these systems.

Still the year when pace counted.
I've seen many people blaming game for bugs, strange animations and so on... I strong disagree.
At first, character movimentation can be strange, but the game concept is really different from everything I've seen so far. The game storyline is awesome, really great puzzles, all this gave me severeal shivers, I really loved it. I recommend you to play this game if you didn't tried, and if you did but didn't finish yet, try again please.
The game has performance problems, but maybe the dev team can fix it. Can't wait for a second game, if there will be one.
Thank you Bloober Team,

Journal Style Review:
I’m a bit embarrassed for Xbox that their first real Xbox exclusive for the Series X is a AA walking simulator. When I saw trailers for this game I though it looked cool. I thought it would at least have “a plague tale” level of gameplay. I thought it would be a AA story focused adventure horror type game. I’m disappointed it appears to be a full on walking simulator. Like I can’t even rotate the camera? That makes it feel old. You are trying to show off your new powerful console you were bragging about, and this game is like “click key item and put in door.” That being said, opening trailer was pretty sweet and I’ve liked the opening vibes and atmosphere. This may be high on my list relative to the other walking simulators I’ve played. We will see.
I can’t believe how little gameplay there is. I’m disappointed. I didn’t have high expectations. But this is still lower than expected.
Very poor animations, especially facial. The mystery isn’t bad at the beginning though.
All that stuff the devs said about this needing to be on the series X because of our fancy game is total bullshit. This game is so simple. Split screen with two images is not impossible on the older consoles, that’s a straight up lie to pretend your game is way fancier than it is. I hope the story is good. Otherwise I don’t know if this game actually does anything well.
I do think this game has good sound and voice acting. The music or environmental noise adds to the atmosphere. The style and presentation I quite like. The medium world looks sweet. I just wish there was more to the gameplay.
I’m going to have to get over the fact I’m bummed about this game being what it is so I can try to enjoy the experience it’s trying to give. But fuck I am bummed.
That first pans labrynth-esque monster chase and sneak section was super cool. The world design of the medium world is awesome...I want a different game with this world made.
The medium world and returning the souls and the invisible demon trying to eat you is all very cool. I liked it. Then the game fucked up and I couldn’t return one of the souls so I had to mess around with old saves to find a file that wasn’t glitched and I had to replay the section. It wrecked the momentum the game had going and wasted my time. A bummer because it was the best section to date so I was getting into it.
The world and atmosphere is so good. I do love the aesthetic. The Thomas cutscene and storyline is very dark but Im really liking it. They have done enough now to draw me in. I’m getting over the fact I hate what the gameplay is.
The forest chase that switches between real and the spirit worlds was awesome. There are a lot of scenes that I love in this game. Shame the gameplay is so fucking awful.
The puzzles aren’t very good either. It isn’t like there is a problem and I’m thinking about how to solve it. It’s just interacting with the few things you can interact with. It will be like turn on the generator so I can lift this motor up and get access to this lever that just happens to be under where the motor was for absolutely no logical reason. The puzzles are the only form of gameplay and they suck. This would be a better tv show or movie, the interactive portion of this game does not enhance the storytelling. It hurts it.
The fact that nothing kills you in this game, except for a few sequences that are obvious and simple, really takes away the tension this game could have. I’m walking through these creepy, dark disturbing environments but at this point It’s just not tense or special because I know there aren’t jump scares or anything that can do me harm. It’s another huge missed opportunity.
I finished the game and I liked the ending. I liked this story from start to finish. I liked the atmosphere and the visuals. I just hated the gameplay. It distracted me from the good bits more than it brought me in.
Final Score: B

A different take on Assassin's Creed: Odyssey. "Fenyx" is, like Skill Up said, a 25-hours long Disney cartoon. It's colorful, pleasant to look at, and offers great humor (but not for everyone). Since humor can be a bit adult-like, this isn't really a game for kids.
It's a great package if you invest into the story. The constant narration by Prometheus and Zeus is fun to listen; the puzzles are engaging; combat is fun. Take the game apart, and its parts aren't revolutionary, but taken together, they create a really, really fun game. Main quest, and some side quests, and about 50% of chests, vaults and collectibles will take about 25-30 hours to collect. 40 hours or more if you want to collect everything.
If you enjoy the humor of the game and the story, and greek mythology, you will have a lot of fun. I find this game to be a lot better than Odyssey.

I loved this one. Just on the right side of difficult, finishing the whole thing took me over 50 hours. And none of them left me feeling bored or frustrated!
6/10 - Imagine EA or Blizzard tries this and its like a 100GB download lmao
8/10 - Probably the most relaxing non-Nintendo game I've ever played. %100'd it but I'm sure ill play it again some years later. Doseone is good.

I have played over 100 hours and am STILL discovering unfinished or swept away chunks of game. Probably thought I was going to say "I'm STILL finding cool stuff to do" but... eh. I know I said I finished this but I'm glitched out of a few missions... If this were complete and reliable, it'd still be a 7/10, though, let's not get it twisted. Deus Ex in an open world with real consequences this ain't, check out the youtubes and see for yourself that it's not any more deep than just a good FPS with loot and sex scenes. It's an RPG like Borderlands was is what I'm saying - not a terrible game by any means, just nowhere near as good as anyone expected. Mission Giver 1 tells you to go to Place 1 and shoot Guy 1. Repeat 100 times. Maybe they had to cut the really fun parts out because there doesn't seem to be anything of value in the non-mission critical areas of the map. Is there even a point to the swimming outside of one mission (which itself was one of many several escort and listen scenes)? Is there a point to having any contacts in your phone when you can't do anything with anyone? GTA IV was released in 2008 to put things into perspective. Remember that video about all the dope cars you can drive? You grind to save money to buy them from people you never meet but somehow know your phone number and call you to say "hey, V, got a sweet ride that'll cost you all the money you've earned so far stashed by a dock! Bye!" So why did I play it for so long?
Well, the game is 7/10 so there's no reason to snub it, nothing special, but Keanu and the soundtrack really do make up for a lot of its problems. Hacking and shooting is better than Watch_Dogs and Syndicate so if you liked that combo kill style, this game has it. Maybe some of it was denial, though - I mean, all those reviewers couldn't have been lying to us! YongYea and Alanah Pierce looked so happy when they talked about it months before it dropped, right? That's why it's more fun to watch it being played than to flatline every 50 minutes on your own, honestly. Get it in a year when they fix most of it.
update: kinda fixed. All the next fixes have been pushed a year. It's cheap now and this is the most final version we're getting so go for it.

Amazing game, very unique and getting consistent updates!
Defiantly worth your time especially with friends. Nothing better than carrying 4 hours worth of loot whilst being hunted by an enemy ship and having a giant war to defend your loot

Not good
This kind of game just isn't my cup of tea unfortunately. I'm sure others would enjoy it!
This game does everything the original does, but with much more finesse and refinement, making the experience all the more fun. Definitely a great game to kill time with
