      My top 5: Ori and the Will of the Wisps/Psychonauts 2 Mostly perfect games for me, which is why I had them as my 2020 and 2021 GOTYs. From start to finish, I was continually impressed by everything these games did. I'm not ready to pick a favorite, lol. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2 I didn't think I would ever care about skateboarding games again but they actually did it. THPS 1+2 was exactly what it needed to be and I appreciate the restraint the developers showed by not changing too much of the classic THPS formula. RIP Vicarious Visions. The Last of Us Part II Naughty Dog is still the best when it comes creating enthralling story's and realistic characters. They are also one of the best in the industry when it comes to technical and sound design. The attention they give to every little detail of their games is insane. And the gameplay is better than TLOU 1. Demon's Souls/Elden Ring Both are great. Elden Ring is way more ambitious with it's excellent exploration focused open world. If it's performance would have been better for me on PC then I would probably just give it this spot. Demon's Souls on the other hand, is one of the most beautiful, well performing games I've ever played. I was wearing robes and casting spells but Bluepoint are the real wizards of that game. Honorable Mentions: DOOM Eternal Wasteland 3 Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales Desperados III Final Fantasy VII Remake Resident Evil: Village New Pokémon Snap Kena: Bridge of Spirits Before Your Eyes Pokémon Legends: Arceus

      It looks interesting and it's coming to Game Pass. That's all the info I need. My only worry is that all their trailers so far had bad performance, not a great indicator.

      I'm taking this literally, and when I see the word shown, its hard for me to even think of five. There were fun teasers, games I'm excited about, games that will be great and already know about, but almost none of those were due to their showings at the conference. That being said, the clear winner for me would be Forza Horizon 5; it looked and performed great for a cross-gen game.

      Looks amazing hopefully it'll turn out great this is my most anticipated game of the show. Just a reminder that Chernolite is out in July itmight scratch that itch until Stalker comes out.

      This won't be easy, but let's see what we've got here... 10: Metal Gear Solid When Metal Gear Solid is done right, there’s nothing quite like it. I’ll admit that 4 and 5 are probably why this isn’t higher for me. I certainly enjoyed 4 when it came out, but don’t know if I would go back to it now, and 5 was basically the antithesis of everything I loved in the franchise. What I loved though is so prevalent in the first three core games; the exploring, the crazy as hell anime story, the awesome characters and conversations, and most of all, just sneaking. It all fit together in a package that still feels unique to itself as a Kojima project today. Youtube Video 9: Super Mario It’s hard not to love your time with a Super Mario game. Almost any Super Mario game is just full of so much joy and just the right amount of challenge. Super Mario Bros 3 is maybe my favorite of the franchise, but I have lots of memories playing Super Mario World, Galaxy, among all the others. Here’s hoping that Nintendo puts 3D World on the Switch for more people to get their hands on! Youtube Video 8: Ni No Kuni As a lifelong Ghibli fan, it was difficult to not be immediately invested in the first game when it came out. I got the Wizard’s Edition with the magic book, and it created this connecting effect where I felt like I was a part of this wonderful, positive and uplifting world I had always wanted to explore. I love how the franchise is so positive and painstakingly crafted with themes of helping others. Let’s get that third game! Youtube Video 7: Mega Man Those who have read my reviews on the forum know pretty well I love me some Mega Man. Even when it’s bad, there’s still this instinctual drive to just watch things explode that always feels so amazing and cathartic. It feels so good to go through and blast a boss with the weapon they’re weak to. They’re also usually just the perfect length to beat in an afternoon which I’ve come to appreciate more as time as gone on and as I’ve gotten older. Youtube Video 6: Metroid There are few series as satisfying to explore and make your way through as it is to uncover the map in a Metroid game. Delving deep into an alien world and finding hidden routes and encountering monsters that live in that ecosystem feels legitimately like almost nothing else out there. That feeling of personal growth through unlocking the environment through power ups is another thing that is mostly unique to Metroid, minus the genre it preceded, and never quite feels as good as when Metroid does it best. Youtube Video 5: Shenmue I was a late adopter of the Shenmue franchise. I never had a Dreamcast and didn’t understand the appeal until I picked it up in the HD collection. But I can never go back. There are no games paced and done quite the same as how Shenmue feels, where you operate on a schedule, get to know people and just live in a space as intimately as the games pull off. It doesn’t matter who you talk to or where you go, the characters and the locations all feel alive, breathing and legitimate. Youtube Video 4: Castlevania I love Metroid, but I love Castlevania more. Granted, there are definitely things that Metroid does that are better, but Castlevania can go to so many different styles, and I love it every time. Being a part of a the gothic architecture, horror monsters and twisting halls can be satisfying as a straightforward game like Super Castlevania, or an exploratory Metroid-vania like Aria of Sorrow, and I will enjoy it every time. I don’t believe that there are any parts of this franchise I wouldn’t pick up and play, even if they don’t all play exactly the same. The draw of the series to me doesn’t come from how they play the same, but how they feel, and there’s always that cozy Gothic vibe that is so difficult to replicate. Youtube Video 3: Mother (Earthbound) Admittedly, I’ve only played Earthbound. However, it remains one of my favorite games of all time. The way that it incorporates humor and character into even the smallest of encounters and making the world feel so alive and child-like is second to none. Earthbound oozes personality, and feels legitimately comforting. Youtube Video 2: Chrono Chrono Trigger was the first game I ever played, and Chrono Cross, even though I don’t like it quite as much, has its own appeals as well, and was my reason for learning to play the guitar. The intimacy of the characters and feelings of making actual change is something that feels so special to do, and certain story beats are just so affecting. The games I love the most often need, for me, to have that level of character, growth and story, and Chrono has this in spades. Youtube Video 1: Final Fantasy Of all the franchises that came to mind, Final Fantasy was a given for being on my list, and never bumped below the top spot. There are so many memories I have of arrestingly poignant moments through most every game in the franchise. Through my entire life, a new Final Fantasy has always been a moment in time that helped me through difficult moments and taught me about world building and character arcs that are to this day unmatched for me. Youtube Video Honorable mentions that didn't quite make it were: 11 - Pokemon 12 - Zelda 13 - Silent Hill 14 - Crash Bandicoot 15 - Kingdom Hearts

      Got around to finishing the game just now, and I'm impressed by how this game turned out to be. The story is gripping right from the start, and it only gets more engaging as it goes on, as the missions get crazier, and the stakes get higher. Also, the characters are quite memorable, and the interactions between the main trio of the gang can be really fun to watch. The writing is consistently good as well. Had the game's mechanics keep up with the story and mission scenarios, it would have been perfect, but it stumbles quite often. Aiming feels clunky as heck, but the challenge at Classic difficulty certainly made it exciting, and the kill/weapon feedback is pretty good. I wish that restarting from deaths is faster, I died a lot and it's kinda painful to sit through the slow motion animation and the loading screen. Also, enemy AI behaviour is all over the place, they can be too confident most of the times but also hang back when I least expect it. Driving is great overall, and easily the best part of the game mechanics-wise. The attributes of the car are pretty well represented, and I can tell when a car is just too slippery to my liking. Shout out to whoever thought of the turn-by-turn navigation system, it's so immersive and it pretty much enabled me to play the whole game with minimal HUD without many trouble. Between this and Ghost of Tsushima's guiding wind, it's been cool to see what devs can think of to provide more immersive exploration, and I absolutely love it! Also, driving around while listening to the radio feels very authentic to me. I know jack shit about the 30s, but damn, it's cool to hear the baseball games from the radio. All the missions are good, but if I had to pick a favorite, it would be A Trip to the Country. The atmosphere of the seemingly empty farm in the stormy night is just too fucking good, even if the second half of the mission gets a bit annoying. Other favorites for me would be Fair Play, The Saint and The Sinner, Omerta, and Happy Birthday. Technically it runs pretty well on my PS4. The game looks very good at times, but the draw distance and far object details can look pretty bad at day time. There's only a few frame drops that I encountered, all of them feature many particle effects. Honestly it's a crime that a game like this doesn't have photo mode, I really hope it gets one in an update someday. (8.5/10)

      Observation immediately comes to mind. Played it last year on my old PC with maxed graphics settings and at times it was even lower than 10 FPS. But such bad framerate was perfect for RPing as a broken space station.

      ?

      I'm curious to see how Guerrilla Games' Horizon series evolves, and I'm hopeful about a potential next Red Dead Redemption title. Other than that, I'm open to the unknown.

      @dipset All I know is Dying Light 1 was fun, so I believe in Dying Light 2 for now. I've never cared about the characters in the game, and I'll continue not to.

      Uncharted God of War(1-2-3) Batman: Arkham(Asylum-City-Knight) inFamous(1-2-SS) CoD: MW(2007-2009-2011) I'm pretty sure TLoU will be the first one when third game released.
