  I strongly recommend: Control Resonant (Review) 20.09.2026 25m

  Thanks to Nvidia for sponsoring the video. To learn more about how Nvidia tech delivers the best possible fidelity and performance in games like Control Resonant, click the link: https://www.nvidia.com/en-au/geforce/news/control-resonant-geforce-rtx-50-series-bundle/--Control Resonant adopts the structure and aesthetic of a Ubisoft style open world game full of map markers and regional bosses, but whereas in a Ubisoft game the structure is the experience, here the structure is the beginning of a process that is specifically designed to subvert expectations. Rather than dictate the game's ultimate form, the structure is simply a scaffold that exists to let Remedy build other, more interesting things. #Review #RTXon #controlresonant Visit our website https://www.thisweekinvideogames.com for ad-free, ai-free, clickbait-free games coverage.

  I do not recommend: Marvel's Wolverine (Review) 10.09.2026 24m

  Thanks to MANSCAPED® for sponsoring today’s video! Get 15% OFF + Free Shipping on The Lawn Mower® Ultra Gen 6 with code “SKILLUP" at https://www.manscaped.com/skillup--Marvel's Wolverine's uneven story and sub-par combat are not enough to carry the game's 20-ish hour run-time, but it's the obnoxious, hand-holding game design that makes Marvel's Wolverine so objectionable; patronizing the player with constant guidance, pop up reminders, GPS pointers, audio pings and sign-posting. Long after we’ve stopped talking about Wolverine’s pretty visuals and repetitive combat, I think we’ll continue to talk about it as a cautionary tale for AAA game design and the risk of patronizing your audience to the point where they just can’t take it anymore. #Review #Wolverine #PS5Visit our website https://www.thisweekinvideogames.com for ad-free, ai-free, clickbait-free games coverage.
