Terminator: Resistance

It respects the source material, expands the universe thoughtfully, and offers a surprisingly emotional narrative wrapped in satisfying gameplay.

Nice variety of weapons to make robots go boom, and the moment-to-moment gameplay varies from open world stealth/survival to linear action set pieces at a pace that kept me from getting burned out on either.

A good combo is to damage them using explosive barrels or other explosives, then finish them off with your plasma weapons.

I'm loving the game so far, the graphics looks so good that sometimes it's just like i'm watching a scene from one of the first two movies, and i love how long the game is, i'd hate for such an experience to be short lived.

The soundtrack channels Brad Fiedel’s iconic metallic percussion and dark‐synth dread, blending nostalgia with new compositions that feel right at home in the franchise.

Won't blow your socks off graphically, and I did have to slightly bump the graphics down from max settings for smoother overall performance, but it never crashed or had any game-breaking bugs — which is more than can be said for a lot of AAA releases these days.
