    From its striking wash of chromatic aberration against the glow of the crystaline skater against the forboding hellscape of the skate park, Skate Story is a feast for the eyes and a must-play for skateboarding fans looking for a short but unforgettable indie hit.

    Though I wish you could jump in and out of either campaign, and I think it ramps up the difficulty rather quickly, Ready, Steady, Ship! is a perfectly adorable co-op title with a ton of content to keep you satisfied.

    Narita Boy is visually stunning and packed with great ideas; but for everything it does right, you can see how it could’ve done better.

    MLB The Show 22 is a great entry to the yearly sports franchise, easily the best one yet. It's enough to keep returning players interested, and new players will have a great time learning the ins and outs of the diamond.

    JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle R is a solid port of a great licensed game that goes beyond a simple remaster and should not be missed if you're a fan of the long-running franchise.

    I mostly enjoyed my time with Overwatch as it is very easy to pick up and play. The characters are diverse and just as colourful as the levels where battles take place. As a free-to-play title, I’d have no problems with the grinding and micro-transactions, but these mechanics in a feature-lite, full priced title, mar the overall experience for me. Maybe you’re okay with that, but I’m not. No matter how many games do it, I’ll never be okay with it.

    While definitely a downgrade, The Outer Worlds remains an incredible game, made even better by the prospect of portability.
