My Reviews (10)
Half-Life 2
TRULY ahead of its time in every aspect imaginable. The game is basically just perfect on all fronts. I just hope I get to play its sequel in my lifetime!
Left 4 Dead 2
Still the best zombie shooter game I've ever played. There's a charm about its gameplay that other zombie games just haven't been able to capture. Even 20 years from now I'll probably still be playing this game.
Alien: Isolation
This was the first serious horror game I ever played, and man, what a great way to start my journey with the genre. The best part about the game is how intelligent the Xenomorph's AI is - it's always a step ahead of you.
The only thing I didn't quite enjoy about the game was how slow it was at the beginning. But once it picked up the pace, it was so fun to play.
Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered
Even though I beat the game years ago, I still find myself launching it every now and then just to swing around New York City.
What really makes this game special, though, is how perfectly it captures both sides of the character: Peter Parker and Spider-Man. As someone who’s been a fan of Spidey for years, I can confidently say this is one of the best versions of him across any Spider-Man media. The personality, the humor, the heart—it’s all here, and it’s done so well.
Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
While CS 1.6 will always be my favorite game in the franchise, CS:GO is hands down the one I’ve made the best memories with.
I didn’t start playing CS:GO until 2018, so yeah, I was pretty late to the game. But once I got into it, I was hooked. I can still remember sitting down and playing 6-7 competitive matches back-to-back in a single day like it was nothing.
I’ve played a lot of FPS games over the years, but honestly, no game matches the shooting and movement mechanics of CS:GO. It’s the game that taught me how to play FPS titles properly and sharpened my skills, which has helped me in other games like Valorant. I owe a lot of my gaming growth to CS:GO, and for that, I’ll always respect it.
CS2 is decent and all, but it just doesn’t have the same vibe as CS:GO. For me, this will always be one of the best FPS games ever made.
Grand Theft Auto 5
The best way to describe GTA 5? One word: "masterpiece." This game just nails it on every level. From the awesome story mode to the smooth driving, satisfying shooting mechanics, and chaotic fun of multiplayer, everything feels perfectly crafted.
But gameplay isn’t the only thing that blows me away. The optimization of this game is insane. I’ve seen people run it on dual-core processors with decent settings. For a game that’s this detailed and ambitious, that’s beyond impressive. Rockstar seriously nailed it with this one.
Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3
Easily my favorite game of all time. I first played it when I was around 9 or 10 years old, and I still remember how blown away I was. So many characters, an incredibly extensive story mode, awesome maps, cool animations, and an iconic soundtrack—this game really had it all.
I still play it from time to time, and surprisingly, the gameplay still holds up. Sure, the graphics and overall feel of the game are a bit dated now, but it's still so much fun to play, especially with friends.
Valorant
Valorant should definitely be a case study on how to make a first-person shooter the right way. I’ve been playing since launch, and almost five years later, I’m still hooked.
The gunplay, characters, maps, and abilities all just click perfectly. Sure, there are certain guns and agents that perform a bit better than they should, but what really sets this game apart for me is how active and responsive the development team is in addressing these issues.
Another thing I absolutely LOVE about the game is its anti-cheat system. Unlike a certain other game that I won’t name, I never have to worry about running into cheaters in Valorant, which makes for a really enjoyable experience.
Lastly, the e-sports scene is something else. It’s highly competitive, and the game's dynamic nature makes the pro tournaments so exciting to watch.
Minecraft
It's hard to even quantify how much time I've spent playing Minecraft. It's been a part of my life for over 10 years, and while I don't get to play as much anymore, my love for the game hasn’t changed one bit.
I can't help but praise this game—it was such a huge part of my childhood, and I made some amazing friendships through it. I'm really happy to see that Minecraft is still thriving and as popular as ever. It’s one of those games that has stayed with me, and I’ll always have a soft spot for it.
Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero
Budokai Tenkaichi 3 has always been my favorite game, so I was beyond excited for Sparking Zero. Sadly, it didn’t live up to my expectations:(
The biggest letdown for me was the story mode. It felt rushed and lacked depth, which made it hard for me to get invested. It just didn’t feel as complete as I hoped.
That said, I’m still holding on to some hope. The recent updates have fixed some balancing issues, and I’m hoping I'll get to see new stories and alternate paths in future DLCs.
