Diablo 4
Prince of Persia

 

[PanzerCute]

Prince of Persia was a great Metroidvania, while still being a very good Prince of Persia game. Definitely recommend it.

I have no interest in the other games you mentioned tho, so I did not play them.

 

[Dacvak]

I'm a huge fan of the movement and mechanics of Prince of Persia LC. I haven't finished the game yet (man I really should), but it's just a joy to play if you're like me and value smooth gameplay.

Robocop is also pretty solid, especially on PC.

 

[adamsapple]

I'd recommend all of them but if we're narrowing it down to 2.

Robocop
PoP: Lost Crown

Replace Lost Crown with either Diablo or Jedi Survivor if you're keeping up with the franchises.

 

[GymWolf]

If you like robocop, that one is pretty much unmissable, i liked it a lot and i'm not even a huge robocop fanboy.

It's not your typical fps where you shoot all the time, you also have more calm miments where you investigate or explore the police station etc.

- Robocop

No comment.

- Jedi Survivor

No comment, beyond:
If you go on Google Images, and type "Jedi Survivor" you will fall asleep.

- Mortal Kombat 1

If cinematics, graphics and story is enough to keep you going, play it. The gameplay will be serviceable.

If you want to play something that doesn't make you put your controller down for 30 seconds, 4 times per match, and with animation feel that can outmatch this:

Play something else. MK 1 won't be for you.

- Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown

No comment. Ubisoft game.

- Diablo 4

No comment. Looks really good, but I didn't play it yet.

- Street Fighter 6

Great!
I think SF 5 is better, personally. But it's a full package game.
Whatever you look for in a fighting game, it's there. You will certainly like it more then me!

 

[Skyfox]

Robocop
SF6

 

[R6Rider]

Robocop and PoP.

[Chuck Berry]

Either Robocop, Diablo or Jedi

 

[Nankatsu]

Jedi Survivor is a pretty cool game.

Perhaps it's currently the only medium where Star Wars actually delivers good content.

Played it at launch on PS5, and really liked that game despite all its performance issues. Should be better now.

Robocop

Jedi Survivor

Mortal Kombat 1

Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown

Diablo 4

Street Fighter 6

Robocop. A great shooter with an awesome theme.

 

[Guilty_AI]

If it were me, personally, and there were absolutely no other games i could get, i'd pick Robocop.

 

[TheAtomicPile]

To all those saying Robocop - I heard a while ago that there were issues with save points (maybe being too far between or just happening at unclear times). Is that still the case or has that been updated?

 

[The_Observer]

Jedi Survivor is the best SW game ever, recapturing that old SW feel that is missing nowadays

 

[bender]

Street Fighter 6 would be my vote. I believe there is a Prince of Persia demo. Diablo 4 was really disappointing.

 

[Angry_Megalodon]

PoP if you like Metroidvanias.

Robocop also a good choice.

 

[Rockman33]

Like all those games with the exception of the fighting ones. As I'm not into fighting games.

I re picked up Diablo 4 again and it's been a blast.

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Diablo 4 has a lot of quality content nowadays (good campaign and end-game content) so for €20 - €30 it's a good pick-up imo.

As for the second game I would go with Jedi Survivor; it runs way better than at launch (at least on console) and it's a big improvement over Jedi Fallen Order.

 

[Johnny Concrete]

I can only comment on Diablo 4 and I would wait for Path of Exile II to be honest.

Probably available in November this year, for free and will kick D4's ass.
