I spent the last month and half playing on GeForce NOW on both desktop, mobile, MacBook, and Smart TV. Here's what I loved, learned, and loathed.
★★★★ | While the gameplay itself is superficial, Dispatch is a surprisingly funny and poignant debut that shows great potential.
★★★★★ | A technical marvel with enough lore and addictive gameplay to satisfy both fans and newcomers alike.
★★★★★ | A joyous replica of the past recreated for future generations.
★★ | Hugely ambitious and rife with ideas, Of Ash and Steel is an unpolished and deeply broken throwback to an era most have left behind.
★★★★★ | Packed with superb design and a kicking soundtrack, Sektori is pure twin-stick shooter nirvana that is as close to arcade perfection as you can get.
★★★ | Winter Burrow is beautiful and wonderfully written adventure brought down by obtuse and frustrating design choices.
★★★★★ | Smartly designed, impeccably produced, and tremendously enjoyable, Anno 117 is one of the best games in its genre this year.
★★★★ | Often sublime but mostly simply fine, The Outer Worlds 2 is a good enough game that could be so much more.
★★★ | Beautiful and smooth to play, Arc Raiders nonetheless suffers from all the same issues as every other extraction shooter.
★★★ | Nostalgic to a fault, Battlefield 6 is the bare minimum product that is designed to get better over time. Right now, it's just fine, but nothing more.
★★★★ | At once hardcore and accessible, Ninja Gaiden 4 is a brilliant return to a franchise long deserving of a revival.
