Turok was pretty shit tbh.

Many of the other games were great though.

Like. I get survivorship bias is a thing. But how many great games came out in 2025?

Fabio (ffvii I meant but I'm leaving Fabio because it's hillarious)rebirth is the only thing I've enjoyed much honestly. Where's the good stuff? Maybe I'm just not seeing it playing it but I just don't see many games out there I'd call great.

Oh, expedition 33 is really dope. That's something.

Pretty positive you're just not seeing it, because 2025 has been awesome.

Hades 2. Silksong. Split Fiction.

If a Donkey Kong or a Mario Kart had come out in 1998, it'd be in this picture.

And then I didn't play Death Stranding 2, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, or Blue Prince, but the word of mouth is excellent.

Also Outer Worlds 2.

I didn't love Silksong. It was alright. But I never finished it. Haven't played hades 2 or split fiction - didn't love hades 1 (didn't hate it either. It was alright) so never bothered. Never even heard of split fiction.

It's ok to just not be that into gaming anymore. But if you are looking for a game to get into, they're out there.
