One of the weakest LEGO games made by Traveller's Tales. LEGO Indiana Jones 2 is filled with tons of cookie cutter levels that repeat over and over again throughout the entire game. Only a level or two from each of the 5 chapters are anywhere close to the quality of the other LEGO games. I enjoyed the hub worlds and even the secret levels within them but they don't fill the void of proper stages that are largely missing from the game. The level creator is fun for like 10 minutes but then becomes largely forgettable. I would have dropped this game after the first chapter if I wasn't playing co-op.

A Hat in Time feels like it came out of the GameCube era. It has the charm and flaws from that generation. The game has some jank regarding clambering and especially the camera when in tight areas. However, despite these flaws A Hat in Time exudes boatloads of charm and is an absolute blast to play. All of the acts in each of the chapters mostly feel distinct from one another keeping dull moments to minimum. All of the characters are extremely enjoyable to be around because of their fun dialogue which is all fully voice acted. A Hat in Time, even with its issues is a must play 3D platformer.

Nyakuza Metro adopts a more open style of play. It reminds me a lot of Bowser's fury when regarding this DLC's structure. All of the acts are enjoyable obstacle courses. There is some backtracking but that rarely ever put a damper on the experience. I also got softlocked twice, nothing major but it halted momentum when it occurred. Back to the positive, tons of new cosmetics were added so you now have many ways of customizing Hat Kid now. Overall, this DLC was a blast to play even with the issues I encountered, and I hope this more open style is explored further in future DLC or a sequel.

Shadowkeep is the embodiment of mediocre. Most if not all of the content is now irrelevant unless you want a few okay legendary weapons and armor for armor synthesis. However, there are some decent exotics that are worth using. Shadowkeep's campaign is mediocre at best and comes to a screeching halt when you are required to complete a set of armor by doing busy work. The dungeon is okay and I personally have not done the raid but community reception is pretty mixed on it. I wouldn't bother with this expansion unless you really want to have access everything that Destiny 2 has to offer.

An excellent start to the Arkham series. The combat is extremely fun but is noticeably more clunky when compared to later games in the Arkham series in addition to being one of the easiest. I really enjoyed the story and all of the encounter's with the various villains. Sadly, I suffered numerous technical issues during my playtime. I experienced multiple crashes and the framerate took a huge nose dive during one sequence but is mostly stable in every other part of the game. The worst problem I encountered was having to reinstall drivers to get the game to go past the launcher. Despite my technical issues, Arkham Asylum is an excellent game that got me hooked on the rest of the series.

Arkham City is a huge jump in quality over its predecessor. The combat feels more refined and encounters are more challenging. Story-wise, Arkham city is the best in the whole Arkham series. Side-content is a mixed bag though. During the side missions you get to have enjoyable interactions with some of Batman's more obscure villains and characters. However, some of the side missions are roadblocked by waiting for events to occur randomly while roaming the city. Even if you are in a location where an event is supposed to occur, it's a flip of a coin as to whether or not it will actually trigger. On the topic of mediocre content, Harley Quinn's Revenge which acts an epilogue is okay. There's not much to say other than you can play as Robin for a little and experience an alright story. I'd be more disappointed with the DLC if I had to buy it separately. The technical performance of Arkham City is better than Arkham Asylum but I did suffer from several crashes. Arkham City, is a highlight of the series and is arguably the pinnacle, only suffering from its optional content and technical state.
