The video games readers couldn't switch off in 2025
"Happy holidays, Pushing Buttons readers! Once again, we are approaching the cherished time of year between Christmas and New Year when we might actually have the time to play some video games. I hope Santa brought you something new to play, instead of taking one look at all the unplayed games in your Steam library and putting you straight on the naughty list."
"Death Stranding 2 is a true masterpiece of a game. Absurd at times, deeply emotional, scary, all with an absolutely amazing score. The characters are superb. In particular, Rainy was absolutely wonderful and Higgs, the guitar-shredding Paul Gilbert look-alike villain, was insanely brilliant. And blimey ... the graphics. Just sensational stuff. Simon White Avowed. I've started but never finished Skyrim (or any of the Elder Scrolls games), Starfield, any of the Fallouts or Outer Worlds that I think fall into the same category."
The holiday period between Christmas and New Year offers extra time to play video games and confront large unplayed Steam libraries. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 delivers a compelling combination of story, setting, music, characters and visuals that encourages repeated engagement while resisting closure. Death Stranding 2 blends absurdity, deep emotion, horror and an acclaimed musical score alongside standout characters such as Rainy and Higgs and striking graphics. Avowed provides impactful choice-driven narrative, strong script and voice acting, and notable first-person non-shooter combat. Split Fiction offers highly enjoyable cooperative multiplayer that blends multiple genre influences for social play.
