WTMG's Jordan Hawes: "Tales of Kenzera: Zau is a great concept that was clearly pushed forward by a good writer and storyteller. There is a deep narrative here that I enjoyed and it really carries the whole package here. While it starts out as a fairly simple, run-of-the-mill metroidvania gameplay wise, it is unfortunately brought way down by its lack of polish and design. Too often I felt like I was fighting the game itself instead of actually enjoying a good challenge. While the story shines bright, its enjoyment is diminished by its frustrating gameplay design."
NE: "Kirby's been on more than a handful of adventures, and we've gathered a list of 10 of the best Kirby games here."
WTMG's Aaron Price: "Overall, Sker Ritual was a lot more of what I wanted and way more than I could have expected from it. Is this going to be a Call of Duty: Zombies killer? Maybe not as of now, but it’s clearly a really good step in the right direction, as that series simply doesn’t care about having to improve anymore. Even though it’s completely different from its predecessor, Sker Ritual is a pleasant surprise, a well-polished game, and something I definitely plan to continue returning to often, especially if there are any big content updates in the future."

Oh wow I thought for sure if Xbox was to outsell the ps5 in just one single month this year it would be September with the release of Starfield and Forza.
Playstation brand name alone is just to powerful.
WOW, i really thought with Starfield Xbox would have been up YOY, the fact they are down 35% from last year when they released sod all really is a massive shock.
And October will surely be a bloodbath with Spidey 2 coming, massive hardware and software sales incoming.
Not even ABK acquisition will change this....almost feel sorry for Phil.....almost.
