An Eldritch Horror Fishing game is something I never knew I needed or even wanted...
Dredge done everything right, bringing you a dark and twisted story not only on land but also below the ocean's surface, well developed characters, incredibly tense and horrifying moments that are executed perfectly, a grindy but yet addicting upgrading system and so much more.
Outside of a few incredibly minor flaws, Dredge is one of the best games of 2023.

Mr. Krabs origin story was one hell of a ride!!!
In all seriousness, Another Crab's Treasure was a unique and refreshing souls-like experience that gives fans of the genre hope that there is some original thought that can go into these "inspired by" games afterall...

Although incredibly short, this game was incredible. The music was wonderful, the pacing was great and the story was so emotionally fulfilling and incredibly heartbreaking.
I do wish the game added more context during certain moments but that didn't take anything away from how incredible the overall experience was here.

A beautifully crafted platformer with a stellar soundtrack and surprisingly emotional short story that will have you loving this little guy by the end of his journey!
Also, this game is free on Steam. The fact that it's free is mindblowing to me. A lot of hard work was clearly put in here and to experience this at no cost almost felt wrong… If you have a computer, there is no reason to not check this out!

I look at this game the way Paul Heyman looks at Roman Reigns.

Animal Well shines as it keeps its promise on delivering a great and visually stunning puzzle platformer experience that is constantly feeding the player some of the best mysterious and thought provoking levels that I've ever experienced.
This is one of those games that came just at the right time and has set a whole new foundation on the metroidvania genre going forward.
This was an incredible experience that I'll be thinking about and revisiting for a very long time.

Capcom continues to amaze me with their new vision on these remakes. I never would have thought they could have took an already perfect game and made it into something so much better, special and unique. This game was more than a remake, like the Resident Evil 2 remake, it lays the foundation for how remakes should be approached.
Games like this is why I'm proud to be a gamer and why I'm excited for the future of this franchise but also for the future of video game remakes.

Despite the terrible performance issues I encountered every 10 minutes, I enjoyed it. I still believe they should've stuck to that Arceus formula because coming from that made Pokémon feel so new and fresh and then going to this just felt like something I've played a thousand times now, which is fine. I love these games but getting spoiled with Arceus really set a new standard for me.
What Nintendo has created here is something I can't help but see as their greatest accomplishment. Especially when it comes to Zelda. I think this is the Zelda game they've envisioned since the start of it all back in 1986.
Breath of the Wild, to me, was the best open world experience I'd ever had with any video game. There was just something about roaming the fields and gliding through the skies of Hyrule that stuck with me. The world was beautifully created and so large, I'm still convinced there are a few areas of that game I didn't explore so when I heard Tears of the Kingdom was a sequel set in the same world, I was curious to how they'd approach that and make it feel fresh and not like something I had already spent 200+ hours in...
They did it though... I'm still blown away by the fact they were able to reuse a world that felt untouchable and turn it into something better than before, expanding Hyrule from the skies down to the depths, and in many more ways I would've never imagined, giving it so much more life than ever before.
The story here was also very surprising to me and another aspect of the game that took me right off my feet. This is a very emotional Zelda game that was incredibly well written and executed perfectly.
I'm not quite sure if Nintendo can top a story like this but, this is something I've said in the past when BotW came out and they made me eat my words by releasing this masterpiece so, we shall see...
This is a game and story I'll never forget and one that will stay with me for a very long time.

Santa Monica Studio and Eric Williams continue to blow me away with how much care and heart they put into this game and this story...
In Valhalla, we finally get to see Kratos face the shadows of his past and reflect on an important chapter of his life that many fans will be extremely familiar with and honestly, I'm shocked at how well this worked... This DLC adds in a surprisingly fun and addictive roguelike/roguelite experience allowing this game to feel much more rewarding than ever before and allowing the combat to shine brighter than ever!
I was caught by surprise in many ways here with the main thing being how well of a job it done at making Kratos feel extremely vulnerable. Usually I feel safe, confident and unstoppable as Kratos but here I actually found myself worrying about how my next encounter was going to play out depending on how my previous one went and how far I was in my run and this made my playthrough feel super tense and extremely cautious and I absolutely loved that!
Also, the fact that this is a free DLC is mindblowing to me. This isn't your typical "free DLC" here. This is a full on epilogue with a lengthy and strong story behind it, new abilities, armor sets, trophies and much more. I easily would've paid $10-$20 for this so the fact it's free is awesome to see!
Overall, God of War Ragnarok: Valhalla is an excellent way to bring the Ghost of Sparta's journey to a close.
There is still much to be told but if this is it for the aging hero's Ragnarok journey, farewell, and amazing work Santa Monica!
(Also, I don't usually review DLC so this will be a rare occasion but if you know me, you know God of War means a lot to me and I love voicing my opinion on anything to do with these games so, this one was a must!)

If you love Alice In Wonderland, you're in for an absolute treat!
This is a short but fun adventure in one of the most beautifully created worlds I've seen in a video game this year.

After finishing this, I have now officially beat every Uncharted game but man, I’m really bummed I didn’t play this when it released in 2017 because this is how you end a decade long series!
This is almost as perfect as an Uncharted game can get! The Lost Legacy delivers a great story, great treasures, great puzzles, a stunning world, amazing and breathtaking action sequences that put you on the edge of your seat and two characters that have a lot of depth and value to them. Nadine and Chloe are a dynamic duo here and it was so badass to see this iconic team up!
I absolutely loved just about every minute of this game. Uncharted 4 is one of my all-time favorite games and my favorite Uncharted game so with this being an expansion to that was a treat and an amazing way to end the legacy of the world’s greatest thieves story-line.
I truly hope the Nathan Drake saga or this game ever gets touched or continued. This is as perfect of a story ending any fan or anyone could ask for.
Well done, Naughty Dog!
