Gears Tactics
Fun game, a lot like XCOM but with less people to control. Would be nice to have more people and maybe a choice of different weapons for each class. Still a fun game tho... waiting to see if GT 2 will evolve towards my hopes.

Great title, great delivery
Good game - different spin on the GOW universe and surprisingly fits in well even though this is a turn-based, tactical strategy game. Looks excellent on the Series X. I really hope BB continues to sell more digital games at prices and offers competitive with the disc based versions. I would never buy a disc again - the code came within minutes and was seamless.

Surprisingly great!
Let me start by saying if your a fan of Gears of War you should play this even if turn based games aren't your favorite. Overall gameplay was a better experience than Halo Wars for me and the story and graphics are great. I didn't initially buy this game because it was on Xbox Game Pass and I wanted to play it first before committing my money to it. I got it on sale for $15 and it's totally worth more than that.

if you liked XCOM then you're going to like this
people are wining and complaining that this game is too hard! its too difficult!. well they havent clearly played the XCOM game. these games are as challenging as they come. these will put your patience and your planing to the test! dont be expecting full on gears of war warfare, this is not that. this is a turn based shooting/planning. i forgot what they're called. but yes it is hard to dominate at first, but the more you play the better gear you get the easier it comes for you. its around 40+ hours to finish so i think it is worth the money

Dispatch Deluxe Edition - Nintendo Switch 2

Not Yet Reviewed

Dispatch is an award-winning superhero workplace comedy game where you play as Robert Robertson III, AKA Mecha Man. After his mech-suit is destroyed in a battle against his nemesis, Robert is forced to take a job at a superhero dispatch center: not as a hero, but as a dispatcher. In charge of rehabilitating a group of ex-supervillains, you must manage your roster while navigating office relationships and rebuilding your suit for a shot at revenge. In the game, every decision you make influences the unfolding narrative. From banter in the breakroom to life-or-death situations in the field, your choices affect your relationships with the heroes, their allegiances, and the path your own story takes. You'll use a strategy map to review ongoing emergencies and deploy the right (or wrong) heroes to deal with them. Balance the risks and rewards as you make tactical decisions, knowing that each choice can have lasting consequences for your team and the city. Managing heroes sometimes goes beyond their powers. Each hero comes with quirks, flaws, and baggage you’ll need to navigate to keep the team together. Upgrade their skills and unlock abilities to boost their effectiveness in the field. Blending narrative, strategy, and humor, Dispatch explores what it means to be a hero, whether you're wearing a cape or behind a desk.
