It was bound to happen.

Not super excited by the skills. A lot of “you get x% more bla” or “you can carry X more weight” Was hoping to see a lot more tech/engineering/etc skills. But will wait for the thing to come out before judging too harshly.

I’m still mad they killed friends and family plan. If they had offered it here I would have gladly paid but no way I’m buying game pass three times for my whole family

I wonder why they picked Sonic Boom over Sonic Prime? I feel like Sonic Prime is a huge step up over Boom.

probably,

I agree. I’m also annoyed at gaming media giving sonic games shit. I understand there were many many bad games, but some of the most recent stuff is quite enjoyable. I love frontiers. Mania is great. Sonic forces was a bit goofy but fairly enjoyable. Murder of Sonic is fun and free. Sonic generations (especially the 3ds version) is cool too. And they made origins more worthwhile all while prepping for a big new classic sonic game with multiplayer that I’m pretty hyped for.

I mean the other end of the spectrum is something like Metroid. Almost all of the games are bangers (not you whatever that third person shooter one was called) but are released few and far between.

Not a mention of defiance. Great game. Great show.

I recently watched Twisted Metal and it was pretty darn good. Who doesn’t love cars with guns?

Edgecrusher35,

Agreed. I was not expecting it to be as good as it was. I really hope they make a second season.

Halo not even in the list and it shouldn’t be

probably,

I watched halo the way I watch most films made of books I’ve read. Going in treating it as its own thing. And I rather enjoyed it. The whole not showing his face wasn’t even something in the full story. Just something they backed in to accidentally in the games. The books have him with his helmet off a lot early on even after getting mjolnir.

But it probably isn’t top 5. That being said, I love sonic stuff and I’m not sure boom is either.

From what I read it was specifically made by people unfamiliar with the Halo universe to bring Halo to more people. A good idea on paper, but hiring writers who never played the games, never read the books, and were told to stay away from the source material? Not only did it not attract new fans but it also kept die-hard fans like myself away, so there was no one else to recommend it.

No mention of the multiple award winning Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? This list is a farce!

I haven’t watched Sonic Boom or TLOU.

As for the Witcher, I’ve watched a few episodes and found the writing and direction just cringe. It’s also based more on the books than the game as far as I’ve seen (which I’ve read and liked).

I’m not a Castlevania fan. I’m judging solely the show here. Watched 2 seasons and gave up. Visually it does make clever use of resources, they’ve nailed the colour and bloom effects and they can pull off action scenes with very limited framerate animation so hats off for that, however the characters go off model frequently and it shows that it’s hastily made ( budget reasons I guess). The writing kills it for me, the characters and story feel very shallow.

Arcane is a really good show. Solid writing, acting, action, animation, and it’s also visually stunning. There was a lot of talent and effort dedicated to it and it shows. At the time of its release the painterly style was very innovative as well the techniques used to achieve that. I would also vote it n1.

The Doom movie was the best TV show based on a video game.

Arcane in top spot

Arcane was really good, though? Even if you don’t think it deserves the top spot, you still have to give it that.

cnnrduncan,

I watched the first few episodes and it didn’t really catch my attention, honestly it mostly just felt like a slightly above-average generic fantasy anime.

It takes the first few episodes to really set everything up on the board so it can then start moving the pieces, to be fair.

The last few episodes are just massive gut punches it took all that set up to give impact to.

But to each their own. Not everything is for everyone.

Yeah, it was great.

Not as good as TLOU though.
