I have played and completed both Persona 3 FES and Persona 3 Portable, and Portable is just not worth playing. It's just quite simply a lesser experience compared to FES's 3D overworld and anime cutscenes. When playing through FES, I never really had issues using the Tactics system, so I never really understood all of the complaints with it. Furthermore, the only good thing that Portable has over FES is the female protagonist, but even that has problems with adding new branches that go against the theme of the game and can really undermine some of the most important moments in the game. Lastly, the pacing of a lot of scenes in Portable are way more awkward than in FES. I think it's because there's little to no time between dialog. Always seeing the visual novel faces behind a pre-rendered 3D background starts to get really old.

Being able to control your party members is still cool though, and should've been an option from the start. Also, I really liked a lot of the social links more in the female protagonist's playthrough.

Just play FES with mods. Or wait for the remake, although that seems a little rocky in some areas.

Despite the fact that this game's very existence is a meme, Crab Game offers some of the most exciting and funniest gameplay I have ever seen that takes full advantage of the multiplayer aspect. With a multitude of unique and interesting minigames, Crab Game leaves a reminiscent aura of Fall Guys in it's prime, but even better. On top of all of that, the developer also continues to update the game which is just amazing.

Crab Game is a joke, and it's ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hilarious.

Raft is the kind of game where you start out and think, "Huh, this looks really simple," and you'd be absolutely right. The game is extremely simple, and that's the best part about it. It's an extremely relaxing experience where you'll find yourself sinking hours into finding loot, going to the next island to advance the story, and trying to expand and upgrade your Raft.

This is the kind of game where it's extremely more enjoyable with friends. However that doesn't carry the game and can be fun solo as well; just try not to lose your mind while alone at sea!

However, there are some issues with the game. For one, outside of story related islands, all of the islands feel the same. I wish there was more variety in the islands. Another thing is the shark, which is easily the most annoying part about the game. I wish the game had actual fish in the sea, that way you can risk encountering sharks while diving below instead of one constantly following you.

Overall, raft is an extremely enjoyable game and it's amazing to watch your Raft grow in progress. I absolutely can't wait to see what this game turns into when it's out of early access!

Ghostrunner is a mechanically perfected masterpiece. The gratification of slicing through your enemies is so rewarding, and it never gets old. You'll find yourself dodging bullets left and right, running on walls to close the distance between you and the enemy and feeling like an absolute badass the entire time.

This game can be very difficult, as you die from a single hit. However, it does not ever send you back too far as there are consistent checkpoints throughout the level. The combat feels very clean to use. If it's hard to dodge the enemy's bullets, you can simply slice through them with good timing. However, the game gives the player many ways to deal with each fight, and it never feels linear. The game's movement mechanics also allow you to go about in ways the developer didn't even intend to.

It also has a fair share of platforming segments, all of which are fun and challenging enough to take a few tries. Each segment adds a new gimmick to make it different from the last. Sometimes I got lost in the map, but only for a couple of minutes. There are location markers to tell the player where to go usually.

While the plot and narrative aren't exactly unique, it's interesting enough to give the player motivation to keep going. The final boss is built up pretty well, as well as some plot twists that are foreshadowed.

Ghostrunner is an absolute MUST play for those who like games like Mirror's Edge, DUSK, DOOM, and any other type of movement first person game.

Fall Guys is an amazing combination of game shows, ROBLOX minigames, and battle royales. There are a plethora of modes to play and all of them are just as much fun to replay. The feeling of being in a competition to the end against 60 other people or having to work together with your team to bully the other teams gives a rush that can't really be found in other games.

The game's server maintenance the last day or so has been poor, but that is to be expected with a game becoming huge out of nowhere, they weren't prepared for this. Right now, the game is in a 90% playable state. (The servers occasionally time out)


It doesn't seem like the kind of game that will stay populated forever, so buy it now while it's hot off the grill, the experiences achievable at the time of this review will probably not stay the same within a few months or so.

Buggy, and horribly optimized. I really wanted to enjoy this game, but being forced to play at 45fps regardless of how low I put my settings, does not justify this horrid mess of a port.

An addicting VR classic! It's so satisfying to slice the boxes, and you'll find yourself sinking in more and more time once you install the plethora of mods. All for a really nice price.

This game will go down in history as the first fleshed out VR experience. With an introduction to physics to everything, including your own body, it adds a layer of immersion never before seen in VR. It's addicting just to mess around with objects, and yet there's a whole campaign to back it up.

However, I definitely think it's not something to play for newcomers of VR, definitely a game for more experienced users.

A must play for D&D enthusiasts and classic RPG fans alike. This smooth release offers the original experience for a fair price, allowing modern day gamers to access this treasure.

I wish I could like this, I really do. Wollay definitely was in a step in the right direction with the artifact system, introducing a unique way of progression. However, he destroys progression entirely with the newly added 'region locking', making it so your legendary items go back to being common. The game introduces absolutely nothing new after your first region. So really, it's only a game worth playing for 5-10 hours. Definitely not the indefinite game we were expecting.
