Overall: Jedi Survivor improves everything about Jedi: Fallen Order's gameplay and creates a world worth exploring every nook and cranny, but the story doesn't live up to the first installment.

Pros: Gameplay is smoother with more combat and traversal options, better exploration, and an overall better play experience. Voice acting is top notch once again as well.

Cons: Story isn't as good as the first game, technical glitches brought down the experience once again.

Overall: Resident Evil 4 is everything a remake should be. A must play for fans of action or horror.

Pros: Takes the core of what made the original great and gets rid of the silly small frustrations with some of the old gameplay elements that have been updated, Ashley is no longer the most annoying person of all time and actually has some depth to her character, looks and sounds amazing.

Cons: Purists will have plenty of quibbles with some of the changes, doesn't come with "Separate Ways" Ada side mission.

Overall: Control is a slick sci-fi action game with a compelling narrative, even if it lacks originality in its gameplay elements.

Pros: Excellent presentation and performances from a great cast, game runs fantastic even when things get chaotic, using different powers to defeat your enemies is always fun, story keeps you on your toes.

Cons: Story can be downright befuddling at times, Jesse's powers aren't exactly the most unique, lack of enemy variety.

Overall: Engage is a solid tribute to the past Fire Emblem games with the series best combat to date. Unfortunately, story took a backseat and is cheesy & predictable, holding this back from being the best in the series.

Pros: Return of the triangle weapon system for combat, huge cast of characters, best presentation in the series, loads of content, nostalgia for hardcore fans of the series.

Cons: Story is your typical "Dark Dragon" Fire Emblem fare and cheesy in spots, formula for the past few entries is starting to show its rust.

Overall: A worthy sequel to one of last generation's greatest games, Ragnarok delivers the action and story expected of one of gaming's premier franchises.

Pros: Epic storyline, gorgeous animation and art style complimented with some of the best graphics around, amazing soundtrack and voice acting, expanded action combat and exploration from first game, more playable characters this time around, more variety in the gameplay than its predecessor.

Cons: Very similar to the first game, which is only a bad thing if you wanted something different. A few minor exploration tweaks would help traversal.

Overall: Fans of strategy RPG's will most certainly appreciate what Triangle Strategy is offering, but those who don't typically like strategy RPG's should give this a chance too.

Pros: Simple, effective strategy RPG combat system, good story with decisions by player making differences in details throughout, gorgeous 2D HD graphics, great soundtrack, solid voice acting.

Cons: Pacing is definitely an issue where sometimes story segments can last over an hour with no battles to break it up, plays it safe with most game design choices for this genre.

Overall: If you can get past the game running like an absolute disaster at worst and tolerable at best, there's plenty to love about this open world Pokemon that moves some things in the right direction for the franchise.

Pros: Open world gameplay and exploration is the future of the series, one of the better cast of characters in the series, huge amount of Pokemon in the Pokedex from the start, game is addicting and fun as hell.

Cons: Runs like absolute ass and there's no telling if it ever gets fixed, no level-scaling for the other trainers and gyms makes it harder or easier than it should be depending on what order you do things in, decade old battle animations and style is getting completely outdated.

Overall: Bat fans will get some major enjoyment out of the story and characters while casuals can enjoy a solidly crafted action RPG with a few rough edges.

Pros: Solid story and characters, good performances from a great cast, graphics are truly next gen unlike some PS5/XSX games, battle system is fun if a little simplistic, action RPG elements a nice change of pace from previous Arkham games.

Cons: Several glitches and slow downs when exploring (including a 30 FPS lock), game is still stuck in the past with its open world design from the Arkham games of previous generations, difficulty spikes in random spots can be troublesome.

Overall: A worthwhile remake for hardcore fans and a must play for newcomers, this is the definitive version of an instant classic.

Pros: Redone gameplay to match Last of Us Part II, some of the best graphics on PS5, voice acting and performance still hold up, gut-wrenching and heartfelt story.

Cons: Not really much different from the remaster content wise and not worth it for casual fans who already played it before, no multi-player from original game.

Overall: Forbidden West improves the original with a gorgeous landscape to explore, unrivaled production values and loads of extra content worth exploring.

Pros: One of the best looking games ever made, top-notch voice acting and score, builds upon the the lore and world of the original beautifully, improvements in every area of the gameplay compared to the original, enormous amount of content to explore if desired.

Cons: Story isn't as quite strong as the original, melee combat still needs some work, random quest bugs that prevent completion.

Overall: A worthwhile remake for fans of the Sinnoh region, but lacking any forward movement for the series.

Pros: Faithful remake of the Sinnoh region, colorful and charming graphics, modern features to smooth out some of the rougher edges of original games, tried and true Pokemon gameplay everyone loves, underground area is an excellent addition similar to the wild area in Sword/Shield.

Cons: Incredibly easy until the Elite Four, small Pokedex and lack of variety among wild encounters until National Pokedex is unlocked postgame, even with a few modern features the game still lacks enough features, game sticks too closely to the roots of the original.

Overall: A disappointing follow-up to Supermassive games breakout hit Until Dawn thanks to an incredibly short campaign and lack of new ideas, but fans of B movie horror might find it enjoyable enough.

Pros: If you were a huge fan of Until Dawn, this is largely the same just with weaker components, soundtrack and voice acting are solid, has that B movie horror charm, promise of better things to come with more games to follow.

Cons: Incredibly short, story is confusing and lacks cohesion, gameplay is repetitive and even sometimes downright boring when exploring.

Overall: Days Gone takes quite awhile to hit its groove and some players won't have the patience, but if you stick it out the investment pays off. Better than the sum of its parts.

Pros: Characters are initially off-putting but have great development throughout the narrative, solid third person shooter gameplay; second half of the narrative is really strong, wealth of content to keep players busy.

Cons: Narrative takes too long to hit its stride, script and voice acting is hit or miss, side missions can get repetitive, some mechanics are annoying (such as constantly needing to refuel to fast travel the open world).

Overall: True Colors is an improvement on Life is Strange 2 with stronger characters and story, but doesn't quite reach the series heights due to a predictable finale.

Pros: Excellent characters, well-written script, more diverse gameplay than previous installments, great pacing, no longer have to wait for episodes to release as it's all in one package.

Cons: As strong as the characters and story are, the finale is predictable and sort of a letdown, shorter than LiS 1&2.

Overall: Iki Island is more of the same from Ghost of Tsushima with a few wrinkles, but nonetheless is worthwhile for anyone who enjoyed the main game.

Pros: Same outstanding presentation and open world exploration, new side events such as archery contests and animal songs, combat gets a few new wrinkles, strong storytelling.

Cons: Not enough new content for those who got 100% of the main game complete and had extra resources & skill points.
