10. The Binding of Isaac: Repentance Repulsive art direction combined with lousy game design; Isaac should not be good. And yet, it remains one of my most played Steam games. When it clicks, it really clicks. And you can mod around the dumb stuff. 9. Monster Hunter World I just really like fighting dinosaurs with my battle cat buddy. It’s not a perfect game though, I’m hoping I’ll like Rise even more. 8. Baba is You Got it in a massive itch.io bundle, then rebought the mobile port. It’s a perfect phone game. 7. Aleste Collection Compile remains the king of the console shmup. Their game-feel is tremendously nostalgic for me and I’m really hoping M2 gets around to more of their catalogue next year. Super Aleste, MUSHA, Zanac Neo, Guardian Legend, etc.. 6. Tales of Berseria What if Berserk was a shonen anime? I picked this up after I remembered liking Symphonia back in the Gamecube glory days. Definitely worth it. 5. Control Prey meets Deadly Premonition with some Parasite Eve sprinkled on top. Control is exactly as awesome as it sounds, and it holds the special honor of being a finished game atop my pile of unplayed Epic Store junk. 4. Capcom Arcade Stadium There’s shmup gold in here: Varth, Progear, Giga Wing, all the 1900’s... give us Mars Matrix now, Capcom. 3. Deadly Premonition: The Director’s Cut Grabbed this for pennies in a Fanatical bundle. Real talk: the PC port is so bad that I gave up in episode 2 and youtube’d the rest of the game. However, what I played and saw is very special: Twin Peaks, Resident Evil 4, and a healthy amount of jank. Can’t wait for the sequel to hit Steam. 2. Darius Cozmic Collection Arcade M2 presents Taito at the height of their powers. Get this on a big ol’ widescreen with some subwoofers and the lights off. Pounding, psychedelic space rock. It’s a trip. 1. Jupiter Hell I liked it so much, I made the thread.
