We answer one question: should you buy this game?
You're staring at a game on the store page. It's $60. The reviews are "mixed." Your backlog is already 200 games deep. One review says it's a masterpiece, another says it's broken. You just want someone to tell you straight: is this worth your money right now?
Every game on this site gets one of three verdicts:
Worth full price. Go for it.
Good game, but wait for a sale.
Save your money. Hard pass.
We weigh Metacritic scores, current pricing vs. historical lows, hours of gameplay, community sentiment, and real-world performance. Then we make a call. No wishy-washy 7.3/10 scores. No 3,000-word essays to bury the verdict. You get a clear recommendation up front, with pros, cons, and who it's actually for.
When you click a buy link on this site, we may earn a small commission through Amazon Associates and other affiliate programs. This doesn't affect our verdicts — a bad game gets a SKIP whether we'd earn a commission or not. The affiliate income helps us keep the site running and the verdicts honest.
