They didn’t omit Zombies but that mode is only ever in Black Ops games.
That’s not true. This is the first CoD without Zombies since Ghosts, and even that had the weird Alien Mode so you could argue that it’s been since Modern Warfare 3 in 2011. Infinite Ward’s last game, Infinite Warfare, was a really good Zombies mode to boot.
I’m not saying they should have included it. It doesn’t fit the theme of the rest of the game at all.
The yearly CoD instalment would usually Grace my list somewhere. Alas, I cannot justify a purchase without a Zombies mode, as it’s where I spend the vast majority of my time in CoD nowadays. Zombies is the best thing to come out of CoD in its entirety by a country mile.
I’ve still yet to play RE2. It’s installed on my PC and I plan to get through it before RE3 releases. But it’s just absolutely wonderful. I’ve watched every Allies stream of it and thoroughly enjoyed it all.
I’m yet to play Sekiro for multiple reasons. I’m still not sure if I believe the hype. But I remain as ignorant of it as ever until I play through it for myself. So maybe I’m just yet to see what everyone sees.
I've heard things about how Ghost Games was full of a lot of former Criterion staff anyways, so it's probably not going to make that much of a difference besides the PR that having the Criterion branding on the box will bring.
I am THRILLED this placed so high. I love the Outer Worlds, so much so that it has encouraged me to maintain a Game Pass Ultimate Subscription for a good few months now. I'm yet to finish the game but have played quite a lot thanks to the lure of different characters and builds. It mirrors one of the things that is actually great about Fallout 4. It doesn't allow you to create a super soldier that's good at everything. If you want to be good as something, you have to specialise.

Easily my game of the year. I was entranced. I dreamt about the game. It was full Tetris effect. The ending is a bit too long, but other than that. Masterpiece. We’ll be talking about it for years.
CTR is the fucking bomb and I love that I can play it again without having to pull out my PS3. I love that it has such a high bar on the Normal difficulty. It demands excellence and really sets you up with the need to perfect the execution of racing.
Also, it's absolutely gorgeous.
Apex is great. Consumed about a month of my year in 2019. Battle Royale has never really been my thing (I’m too in love with CS to truly enjoy any other game mode) but Apex came damn close!
The biggest barrier to entry for me with Tetris 99 was a lack of Skill-based Matchmaking. There wasn't really a way to practice the game. It's all well and good for people who are already decent at Tetris to tweak their playstyle to be more aggressive, but if you aren't good at all, there was no where to really practice, and matches were often hit and miss whether you would get dumped on in the first minute or so.
@dipset I’d agree with this. Ask privately. If you ask publicly then that sets a precedent and they’ll suddenly get a bunch of people asking.
