Keep in mind this rating reflects more on how it compares to other mobile FPS games more than how it compares to the series as a whole.

This game is decent enough if you can get it for $1.99. You just drive around an industrial complex on your dirt bike looking for collectibles with very little in terms of gameplay variation. The handling of the bike is awful but there is some fun to be had if you can get it dirt cheap. Good for quick pick up and play sessions.

Played on: Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X
Time Played: 4 Hours (Across all platforms)

This is just a slightly better-looking version of the game for the Nintendo Wii back in 2006, which on its own was a step down from the classic arcade game we all know and love.
This version manages to be worse, however, due to the significantly worse controls. While it may work alright with a lightgun in an arcade or the more accurate motion controls of the Wii, it is not a game that lends itself well to the use of thumbsticks for aiming or the Nintendo Switch's comparatively worse motion control tracking system.
While I've seen it run serviceably enough on PC, on the whole, this version of the game was a complete misfire.

Very fun on-rails shooter, especially with a custom-designed arcade cockpit cabinet made specifically for the game. Solid gameplay with a good difficulty curve and a story that fits wite nicely into the Halo lore without requiring super in-depth knowledge of the franchise's history, making it good for both Halo lovers and first-time enjoyers.
The one thing bringing it down in the ratings is the lack of a home console release. With Fireteam Raven being an arcade-exclusive game, there is a good chance that even some more involved Halo fans will never have a chance to play it. If this is released for Xbox One/Series consoles and PC at some point in time as a cheap side game or as DLC for the Master Chief Collection, I will increase my score.
Overall very fun game and a worth addition to one of gaming's greatest franchises.

A very good remaster and a good game if you like the timed-action style of gameplay the series is known for.
However, newcomers should know that the game is very, very heavy on dialogue to the point where it can feel more like a visual novel than a game at times, and, while the characters themselves are interesting at times, the overall plot is pretty standard for the genre and does very little to stand out.

Longtime fans of the DMC series will complain about minute and meaningless details in an otherwise very good action game.
The combat flow is some of the best in the entire series at the time of writing, and the visuals, for the time, are quite good. The tone is the blend of comedy and edgy drama the series has become known for over its past few entries, and it remains fresh across multiple replays.
A very fun game, especially if you can pick it up on sale.

2021

Fun little game with a charming art style, gameplay that's interesting enough not to feel repetitive, and a well-paced story.
Since the developers fixed the framerate stutter the game experienced at launch, it has become a lot more smooth, something that greatly helps its art style.
Pick it up if you're looking for a calm world to get lost in or some easy Achievements.

Fun game that feels like a natural evolution of the Donkey Kong Country format. This includes being weirdly somewhat difficult, or at least I thought so back when I had it on the WIi U.

Not Terrible, Aged Poorly

While this may have been considered cutting-edge for the FPS genre back in 2006, Call of Duty 3 has not aged particularly well from a gameplay perspective.
While the multiplayer is decent enough, especially local multiplayer, the campaign is a real slog to get through with the back half in particular feeling very repetitive and dull.
There is little to no veracity when it comes to mission objectives and the only sense of difficulty comes from how many enemies are on screen and firing at you.
Kills are unsatisfying compared to later entries in the series and the characters do very little to stand out from each other, meaning I don't really care all that much when one of them gets killed off.
Call of Duty 3 is by no means a terrible game, but it has not aged particularly well and was a good indicator that the World War II era of Call of Duty games was starting to wear a bit thin, for the time being at least.
Unless you have some nostalgia for the title or can find it for $4.99 or less, there really isn't much of a reason for you to play this over Call of Duty 2 or World at War.

A video game take on the "Where's Waldo" or "I-Spy" book type of activity, It's Kooky is a simple game that gives you a set amount of time to find a certain number of weird things in an image. These can range from immediately noticeable things like a cow flying a hot air balloon to smaller things like a chicken hiding amongst a bunch of sea creatures.
Each level becomes a lottle more complicated, with larger levels, more objects to find, and more drawings to hide them. While you don't need to find 100% of the out-of-place doodles to progress to the next level, doing so can net you some really easy achievements.
The black and white line art art style can make things a bit hard to find at times so you will have to pay close attrention in later levels.

For any achievement hunters out there this game is a must have for a very neasy 1000G. Finding 100% of the weird items hidden in each scene will net you an achievement, a method that comprises every achievement in the game. This, combined with a very cheap price, can make it a good addition to your collection and an easy way to get even closer to that next big Gamersore milestone.

A simple infinite-runner game, No Thing isn't a game you're likely to remember for its gameplay. In fact, even when compared to other infinite-runners it is pretty dull.
That being said, it may very well be the easies 1000G you'll ever get as, with the help of a basic YouTube walkthrough sowcasing the game's main glitch, you can obtain 100% achievement completion in under ten minutes.
If you're an achievement hunter and find this thing on sale for $0.99 like I did then I'd highly recommend picking it up.

Xbox Series X – First Impressions

Seeing as I've put close to 15 hours into the game since I downloaded it a few days ago, I figured it was time for me to give my first impressions of Hunting Simulator 2 for Xbox Series X.
Overall, I find the game to be very good and certainly not deserving of the hate and low scores it seems to get. What players need to understand is that, while it may not be 100% realistic, this game is a hunting SIMULATOR. This means that it doesn't have the more arcade-shooter vibe of something like theHunter: Call of the Wild.
Because Hunting Simulator 2 strives for a lot of realism in its gameplay, while still keeping things fun, players need to take into account the caliber of bullet/type of amunition they are using when hunting certain species as well as make sure they have the license to hunt that type of animal. The realism of the game also means that there won't be something to hunt hiding behind every tree or behind every hill, just like with hunting in real life you'll have to be paitient and willing to put in the time and effort to track your prey.
While some mechanics could use a little fine tuning, such as your tracking dog being practically useless at the start of the game until you bond with it more and the inability to check animal/caliber requirements while in the firld, the overall gameplay is very good and the slower pace makes for a more relaxing feel than other hunting games out there.

While slower than more arcade-style hunting games, the progression system in this game does a good job of being satisfying and bringin players back to the hunting grounds time and time again to get more cash to improve their arsenal and gear collection as well as to pick up some more trophys to line the walls of their hunting lodge.

If there were some changes I could suggest, either for this game or a potential sequel, it would be the addition of hunting sidearms (such as revolvers) as they can play quite a large role in real life hunting when it comes to smaller prey and would be a nice way of giving the player another choice of weapon that wouldn't take up a backpack slot. The addition of optional ballistic bullet drop (something this game doesn't have) as well as backpacks with increased ammo carrying capacity would also be useful to further add to the realism of the game.

Overall Hunting Simulator 2 is a very good game and one of the best hunting games on the market today. If you are looking for a slower paced, more realistic alternatives to theHunter: Call of the Wild, or just want to gat into hunting games, you really can't go wrong with this pick.

exact same copy/paste nonsense that the FIFA series has been pulling since its second release on the Switch. Miserable graphics, poor controls and unstable frame rates make this even worse than last year. I paid $4 for this and I still feel ripped off.

decent enough game held back a bit by clunky controls fro the 2D/side-scroller sections. Picked it up for $4.29 at my local Goodwill and enjoyed picking up and playing it now and then. Looks preety good when played on my Series X.

Decent pickup and play value for the $2 I spent on it. Very good understanding of how to utilize the Kinect. Fuu multiplayer or drunk gaming sessions specifically.
