Not every game deserves a glowing review because the developer worked hard on it. Not every industry decision deserves balanced coverage because someone on the other side has a talking point. The Opinions and Reviews section covers games critically: mechanics, pacing, value for time, and whether the final product matches what was promised. Opinion pieces take positions on industry moves, platform decisions, and the gap between how publishers talk about their games and what players actually get. Coverage spans first-party exclusives, indie releases, AA titles that miss the mainstream spotlight, and live-service games when a major update genuinely changes what the game is. Scores are backed by arguments. Takes name sources.
