Listmas 2025: Top Spots in skate.

If someone had told me six months ago that one of my most-played games of the last quarter of 2025 would be a skateboarding game, I’d have called them crazy. And yet, it’s true!

The Outer Worlds 2 First Impressions

The Outer Worlds 2 opens with a beautiful scene from one of the in-game serials (think: movie shorts), and the visuals don’t ever let up. After making a character of one’s choosing, players are let loose in a stunning world that’s as bright and ever bigger than what was presented in the first game. Everything…
