Woah woah... hol up a minute...

Where in the flip are BugSnax and Astro’s Playground?

Abriael1238d ago

Why in the world would anyone count Bugsnax as one of the best games of the year?

ApocalypseShadow1237d ago

No different than counting Star Citizen as a full game because of personal financing and approved articles.

Haven’t played Bugsnax yet so can’t comment there, but Astros is definitely one of the best games of the year in my eyes. Being a guy who has had every PS and loved all of them, this was special. And the DualSense usage was great. Perfect game to be pre-installed on the PS5. Very fun, nostalgic game that shows off the controller and is family friendly.

ApocalypseShadow1237d ago

Good choices there. But you could have easily added a VR game or two. There were some there as well.

LucasRuinedChildhood1237d ago

Ghostrunner is a huge omission for me as well. Dope game.

ApocalypseShadow1237d ago

Ghost looks cool. Almost reminded me of Sairento from the trailer. I could do that in VR.

Babadook71237d ago

FF7 Remake was indeed among the very best.

The way it was handled was so dumb. One shots in melee...your teammates are to ostupid to get away from its attack. So you most often end up alone in a certain fight.

Two words, one accessory....Safety Bit

MeteorPanda5d ago

Needing an accessory to keep a.i from dying and only one of them isnt great.

Looking forward to this. Hades is easily one of the best games of last-gen. Just hoping they nailed the characters again in Hades 2, because they were fantastic in the first game.

It will be very hard to top.Zagreus as a main character btw.

Popsicle7d ago

Loved the original Hades. Can’t wait!

Nacho_Z7d ago

I was addicted to Hades, the loop pulls you in and doesn't let go. It helps the gameplay is so much fun. Working towards beating the max heat level was the most enjoyable and satisfying challenge I've had for as long as I can remember.

Psychonaut857d ago

Over 200 hrs in the first Hades without even really realizing it. Can’t wait for 2.

I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now

Furesis17d ago

I would say it does. The combat is a bit shit for todays standards but everything else is great.

anast17d ago

It's worth a play through today.

gold_drake16d ago

the first one is abit the odd one out but after u finished it, believe it it gets tremendously better and better
