#41: Hades II
I liked the first one, enjoyed it, but I did not love it. I liked this one, enjoyed it, but did not love it. I cannot explain it. I am not done with it just yet, as the completionist in me needs to do more, but I am in no rush.

@borderlands.2k.com I went to purchase each of the new weapons from the Vault Card and received 4 copies of the Roil instead. Is this a bug?

Another PAX East favorite that exceeded expectations. I do occasionally play non-roguelites. I like puzzles. I like puzzles with unique mechanics even more and this game has a really cool mechanics. If you enjoyed Bzzzt! or Ooo, check this out.

#39: Moonlighter 2 The Endless Vault
I can't believe it's been 7 years since the original game. This was very exciting to review and play. I cannot wait to see what they add to the game as it reaches the 1.0 release.

#38: Ball X Pit
This is not just one of my favorite games this year but one of my favorites period. 3 friends texted me after reading my review and told me not only that they purchased the game but that they hate me for not warning them how addictive it is.

#36: Call of Duty Vanguard
I actually enjoy the campaigns and blasting zombies away by the hundreds never gets old. I had a few campaign trophies remaining and the zombie trophies so figured I would go for the Platinum. Was well worth the time.

#35: Arcade Archives Raiden
The Raiden Project was the first game I ever saw on a PlayStation. I still had my N64 but was sold. I've since played all the games in the series and I can never say no to a SHMUP.

#34: Whisper Mountain Outbreak
Another PAX East overhype. Isometric Resident Evil. This probably needed a bit more time cooking. To the devs credit, they have gone in and fixed a glaring issue (no save system), but this was ultimately a letdown for me.

Boomer Shooter. Check
Roguelite. Check
It starts fine, but slowly descends into a tedious task. Not exactly what I want from a game.

A day-ish late because of technical difficulties (Jason makes an appearance). We tried something with the Borderlands 4 weekly reset. Let us know if you prefer the written article with the short videos and screenshots or the long video with timestamps (or both).

#32: Borderlands 4
Look, nothing will ever top Handsome Jack, but as a complete game, this one is the best (so far - if end game improves, we have a winner). Also, wrote a little something for those just getting started.

#30: Quartet from @somethingclassic.bsky.social
It's no secret that FF6 is my favorite game. I play it every year. Quartet may join that rotation. Plus, we had to put down our dog the week I reviewed the game and this game kept me in a good place so bonus points.

#29: Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 & 4
Just like 1 & 2, I still listen to the music almost daily. Plus, they are just enjoyable games. Bonus: my 6 year old loves to play and it's really cool watching her get slightly better each time she plays.

#28: Minishoot' Adventures
If Zelda was a twin-stick shooter was what I was told and that is exactly what I got/wanted. It also has a bit of Metroidvania lurking about which made this "mini" (not sorry) game so much fun. I finished it up in just under 10 hours and that was the perfect length.

#27: Lies of P from NEOWIZ
I actually beat this early last year but through Game Pass. When the DLC was announced, and because I was not renewing Game Pass, I grabbed the game for cheap and beat it again. If I had to rank non-FromSoft souls games, this is far and away #1.

As a huge fan of Ender Lilies, I could not get my hands on the sequel. It is an improvement in every way possible. A birthday gift of Atomfall did distract me followed by countless reviews but once I got back to it, I did not stop until I had that Platinum
