All of it is not just the best Star Wars has to offer, but one of the best TV series of all time. It's a compelling, boots-on-the-ground depiction of fighting the horrors of fascism, and more Star Wars media needs to take cues from this masterpiece.

Here's to 2026!

Whether that’s through a rewarding parry system, the most creative weapons and mechanics of the franchise, or this developers’ signature buttery smooth gameplay, this was my favorite game of 2025. If I’m being really picky, a little more to the story, enemy types, and locales would be nice.

9.25/10

Elle Fanning is great in her dual roles, and the visceral action sequences push the PG-13 rating to its limit.

7.5/10

We follow Yautja warrior Dek (played masterfully by Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi) as the protagonist instead of the usual antagonist, and you can’t help but root for him thanks to an incredible inciting incident and genuine character growth along the way.

Okay, but for real, this was a nightmare. The only silver lining sliver is that it's making me militant about hydration and watching what I eat. Speaking of... drink more water!

0.25/10

Now in two bold new flavors: "Beg for Death", and "Dear God Oh God Oh F**k Oh F**k Sh*t Sh*t Sh*t", these are sure to keep you entertained for at least two weeks straight!

So I hope you all experience the best that 2026 has to offer, and I can't wait to experience more with all of you this year!

And lastly but not certainly leastly, anyone who watched a video, left a like or a comment, shared my content with someone they wanted to see it, or chatted live in a stream on Twitch.tv/theEXPpoint.
