With the year winding down, now’s a good time to examine games that didn’t quite succeed. The goal isn’t to focus on what was bad, but to learn from those failures and make sure future games are better.

Recently, there was a lot of buzz among Sims 4 players about a potential final expansion pack. Many thought it might be a historical, royalty-focused game, similar to The Sims Medieval. This speculation happened alongside uncertainty about the future of the Sims franchise after the cancellation of Project Renee. By late 2025, rumors began circulating about a possible remaster of Sims 4, with information appearing about a project known as “Project X.”

What sets Yuji Itadori apart from typical shōnen heroes is that his battles are always deeply personal. He doesn’t fight for simple victories, and his losses leave lasting impacts. Whenever Yuji pushes himself to the limit, it’s driven by a desire to protect others, honor someone he cares about, or resolve a painful situation. This analysis currently focuses on showcasing Yuji’s strengths as depicted in the anime.

It’s unfortunate, considering how popular pirate games could be. Sea of Thieves showed that a pirate world with player-versus-player combat can be very successful, and many fans consider Assassin’s Creed 4 to be the best game in that series. Despite this, major game developers seem hesitant to invest in pirate themes, preferring more common ideas like Norse or Greek mythology. After Skull and Bones didn’t gain much traction, it’s doubtful we’ll see another big-budget pirate game anytime soon. However, there’s still hope, as Windrose looks promising and is definitely worth keeping an eye on for Steam players.

Rather than reinventing the typical shōnen anime formula, Demon Slayer masterfully executes it. The series utilizes familiar elements – compelling villains, well-defined power systems, meaningful flashbacks, and exciting battles – with a remarkable level of clarity and intention. This dedication to detail is what allows Demon Slayer to stand out in a crowded anime landscape. Here are nine ways the series surpasses its competition.

For a long time, the PlayStation 3 lacked the compelling, unique games that the Xbox 360 consistently delivered – titles like Halo, Gears of War, and Forza. Eventually, PlayStation turned things around with a string of popular exclusives, and this momentum continued with the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. The trend has persisted with the current generation of consoles, the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, and it’s now clear that Microsoft has conceded defeat in the competition for console dominance.

What makes Sung Jinwoo’s journey so captivating isn’t just his increasing power, but how effortlessly he gains it. His growth in Solo Leveling feels earned, built on constant battles and a refusal to surrender. This list highlights his most impressive feats so far – moments where his strength, composure, and overwhelming power are on full display. We’re focusing only on what’s been shown in the manga, not predictions or theories about what might happen.

Video games truly excel at creating immersive worlds, though science fiction books are also strong contenders. What makes games special is the combination of visuals, sound, and interactivity – often surpassing even what movies can achieve. They’re essentially interactive stories where your choices matter, and they frequently include vast amounts of background information revealed through exploration and conversations with characters. Here are some sci-fi games that rival the worldbuilding found in films.
