With two excellent entries and even the disappointing second game, each providing slightly different versions, not to mention the game's online component, it truly gives players a decent amount here to really enjoy. While Battle Network will always be my preferred Mega Man Spin-off, Star Force nonetheless is a suitable continuation of the world and some of its basic combat systems.

When it comes to science fiction, we've seen the damage that corporations do when it comes to making a profit. Lives are expendable, and safety is secondary. And, with being so far away from any real laws to govern that responsibility, it generally becomes a game of survival. Icarus is such an experience.

Screamer is damn fun once you’ve mastered its systems, both in their execution and timing. While the current difficulty can be a tad too challenging for the casual racing fan, the additional modes and online can provide a wealth of content to tackle.

I'll admit, Brimstone Games’ Overthrown had me interested based on its well put together trailer, showcasing the wealth of combat and building options in this open world sandbox co-op city builder. That mouthful aside, a lack of direction and tutorials builds more frustration than much else. 

Back in 2019, I checked out Eko Software’s contribution to the wealth of Warhammer games in Warhammer: Chaosbane. While its combat was the star of the show, it was a middling effort nonetheless, a passable and yet enjoyable isometric hack and slash. Now, they have returned to the genre with the release of Dragonkin, a new IP by the studio, and a much better effort, despite its familiar flaws.

WWE 2K26 is here, showcasing the career of CM Punk. With new modes, new wrestlers, and a whole new MyRise mode, not to mention returning to the Island, there is a ton to tackle here. However, much of 2K26 is stuck in the past with cumbersome menus, reused models, and microtransactions as far as Oba Femi can throw Kit Wilson.

Developed by Saber Interactive, Toxic Commando is an over-the-top, gory, open zone vehicle-focused zombie horde game that amps up the population of zombies to almost insane degrees. While Left 4 Dead had enough zombies to fill a small club, Toxic Commando is looking to sell out Madison Square Garden.  

Requiem does a number of things well to accommodate two slightly different Resident Evil experiences without this latest entry feeling like two unique games. It also builds on the franchise in ways like never before, with a revisit to Raccoon City decades after Leon and Claire barely escaped with their lives.

Docked is absolutely worth your time. While its menu-driven structure occasionally breaks immersion, the strength of its core systems, satisfying progression, and impressive presentation make it easy to recommend.

With a ton of different items to boost your power, and seven immensely fun characters to master, EX is wildly fun, despite its noticeable flaws, and continues the adventures of Scott Pilgrim, and his unique cast of heroes and villains, all somewhere in Toronto.
