I canceled auto-renew on my PS+ Subscription and cancelled my Halo Campaign Evolved Preorder on PlayStation to get it on Xbox instead. I realize that it’s likely a losing battle, but the reality is that I like physical games and want to continue supporting their existence for as long as I can.

Saros is pretty good. The haptics, sound design, and graphics are outstanding and really pull you into the game. Despite this, I think it’s hard to come back to because I have no idea what the heck is going on.

Pragmata is really great. I thought the little android girl looked dumb, but I’m kind of digging the character dynamics. I like that the game gets right into having interesting levels and doesn’t dumb things down too much in the beginning. It also looks phenomenal on Switch 2. Excited to play more!

Games I rolled credits on in 2025: Sonic the Hedgehog - Sonic Origins version Assassin’s Creed Shadows Pikmin 1 Switch Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time UFO50 - Porgy The Hundred Line - Last Defense Academy (1st loop) Emio - The Smiling Man

The star of Ghost of Yōtei is the DualSense controller. It’s by far the best use I’ve seen since Astrobot. They do a really good job of pairing the sound that’s coming from the controller with the vibrations as well, so it feels like an extension of what’s happening on screen.
