The best Indy game since The Fate of Atlantis. Really hope this becomes a series of games.

1. Insane attention to detail (actually features a full fledged museum with detailed exhibits and actual descriptions for every item).

2. Brilliant sound design. Sounds exactly like the movies! Voice acting is excellent as well. Troy Baker actually pulls off a really good Harrison Ford.

3. Stealth is basic, but effective and rewarding. Think Chronicles of Riddick, Alien Isolation or a stripped down Thief.

4. Hand to hand combat is visceral and impactful. You can feel the weight of every punch thanks to the animation and sound.

5. Exploration genuinely adds to the sense of adventure and actually rewards you.

6. Runs really well on my setup (Ryzen 7 7800x3d / RTX 4070S / 32GB DDR5).

Only issues I have with it thus far:
1. Visual artifacts during some cuts cutscenes.
2. Lack of manual save option.

You don't get to DOWNLOAD the OST. You can only listen to it in-game. Pretty pointless and disappointing since the soundtrack is genuinely good and is definitely a step up over MW5:Merc's generic OST.

A waste of C-Bills.

I went into this expecting a serviceable card-based tactical game based on my favourite Marvel team The Nightstalkers/Midnight Suns. What I got instead was a social simulation which will take up most of your play time interlaced with excellent card-based tactical combat. There is a wealth of lore here featuring some familiar Nightstalker faces and more obscure characters from The Runaways and New Mutants which should please most comic nerds.

As for the bad, the game has loads of resources which can be a tad overwhelming. Collecting said resources involves running around the hub's massive grounds looking for them on a daily basis.

There aren't a lot of western developed games out there that manage to scratch that Tokusatsu itch. This is definitely one of the few that succeeds and then some! A 2D brawler with some depth wrapped up in gorgeous art/animation with a delicious color palette and a theme I personally love. You also get to trash Toronto, so that's an added bonus.

So if you enjoy non-basic 2D beat'em ups, vintage tokusatsu and 70's/80's super robot mecha anime, then you owe it to yourself to grab this along with it's DLC.

The only negative I can think of is the rather dull soundtrack.

Jammin' gears has got to be a fever
'Cause men become addicted to the grind
It takes a special breed to be a truck drivin' man
And a steady hand to pull that load behind.

Worth it for Hedorah's taunts alone. Hope this leads to more Showa Era kaiju.

What is best in life?

To bash posers, watch them driven before you and to hear the lamentation of their women.
It doesn't hurt to have the likes of Angel Witch, Omen, Slough Feg, Riot, UFO, Brocas Helm, Budgie, Coroner, Cloven Hoof, Ostrogoth and Motorhead on 11 while you bath in poser blood.

The game does possess a few issues such as floaty movement and the occasional UI bug. If you love a little old action/RTS hybrid called Sacrifice, then you'd love this. The game is truly a love letter to true metal.

An amalgamation of pulp serials, Commander Cody, The Rocketeer and various alien conspiracy theories, wrapped up in a well animated game with fun gameplay.

It does have its issues, but it scratches a very specific itch no other game does and makes me wish someone would make a Rocketeer game with Crimson Skies-like gameplay.

I don't know what this, but it isn't Fallout. Somebody needs to get the license out of Bethesda's hands.
