WWE 2K22 is one of the better wrestling games I have played in a long long time. The controls are fluid and straightforward enough that they become second nature after a couple of matches. I also feel the counter system has been improved over previous years releases. Reaction time to counter depends largely on the speed & skill of both your wrestler and your opponents. Opponents with quicker snap moves and agility require a faster counter reaction than say a large powerhouse wrestler whose moves are slower to perform. There are some clipping issues with certain moves like running attacks, but they don’t ruin the experience. The hits have impact and some of the higher risk moves are a blast to pull off. The roster of superstars this year is huge! Even without DLC, and then there are custom creations which allow you To expand your roster, title belts, matches and arenas. Wrestling games controls and moves are usually a lesson in frustration for myself, this time around, everything feels more streamlined and responsive and it’s just tons of fun. If you like anything about wrestling, you should definitely check this one out.

I’m am really enjoying Diablo IV on PC and my Steam Deck! Works great and plays smoothly out of the box without tweaks. Online play is smooth and joining up with friends is a piece of cake. I love the random events in game and the open world feel of the gameplay. Pickup quests from NPC and complete at your leisure. The portals in each town make traveling between towns a breeze. Beautifully dark, gothic artwork and graphics plus the seamless transition between game and cutscenes shows the top notch production that went into this game! A++

This is the best Mario Party game in a long time. I remember playing all of these courses as a kid on N64 and love the graphical improvements that have been made. I’m glad Nintendo decided to go with classic controls for all of the mini games, motion controls was a decent idea for the previous Mario Party, but I feel the classic controls make the mini games more fun and less wonky imho. Online play with friends and family is a blast. Especially when using FaceTime instead of the Nintendo App to voice chat on the phone.
