![]() ![]() If you don't get your hands on Assassin's Creed Valhalla (or even if you do) and still want to get your fill of Norse mythology, this is the game to check out. I loved almost everything about God of War, especially all the puzzles and even those brutally tough valkyrie fights. I'm still waiting on a DLC to access some of the realms (Asgard, Svartalfheim and Vanaheim) that were closed off in God War, but maybe it'll happen in Ragnarok. Fans of the 2018 game like myself were very excited to see Sony's tease of Ragnarok during the August Playstation showcase. God of War is one of several titles in the Plus Collection that either have a sequel already out or releasing within the next year. Before you see Tom Holland portray Nathan Drake, I recommend going on your own adventure with Nate in this exhilarating game. If you like adventure and hunting for legendary pirate treasure, Uncharted 4 is a gem in the PS Plus Collection. Also like The Last of Us, family ties are at the heart of the story - in this case it's the relationship between Nathan and his brother Sam. Like The Last of Us, Uncharted 4 is another great cinematic game created by Neil Druckmann and Naughty Dog. I get sweaty palms just thinking about Nathan Drake climbing up some jagged cliff or up the side of a ruined building. Like Kamala Khan in the Marvel's Avengers game, Miles Morales as Spider-Man sends a powerful message to young people of color. Not only is this a fantastic launch title for the PS5, but seeing a Black superhero headlining a major studio video game is encouraging. As a Latino, it brought a smile to my face to hear Morales mixing in some Spanglish among his dialogue with his mother and seeing the depiction of the Nochebuena (Christmas Eve) celebration that sets up one of the early missions. You can see that Insomniac took great care in crafting the storylines of supporting characters who were not just diverse but also complex in their own ways. It's not just that Morales is Black and Latino. The game sends a powerful message about Black and Latino representation, as my colleague Jacob Wolf wrote. In this game, Morales has moved to Harlem, where he tries to adjust to life in his new neighborhood and life as the new Spider-Man, while original Spider-Man Peter Parker is away. The storyline follows Miles Morales, who we first met in the previous game in the wake of the death of his father, NYPD officer Jefferson Davis, due to an attack on city hall. If you're getting a PS5, this is the game to get. There's nothing dramatically new about the gameplay in Spider-Man: Miles Morales compared to its predecessor, Marvel's Spider-Man, but the story is refreshiing and compelling. Their journey is thrilling, filled with close encounters with infected and other enemies, but it's the developing relationship between Joel and Ellie, who becomes like a daughter to him, that really makes this game shine and sets up a terrific ending. With Ellie being immune to the virus, she might hold the key to helping scientists find a cure. It's easy to get invested in this story, which follows smuggler Joel as he shepherds a girl named Ellie across the country to hopefully help find a cure for a virus that has been turning infected people into zombie-like creatures. Plus, you're going to want to play this game first before playing the sequel, The Last of Us Part II. It might be one of the best video games ever made and definitely a must-play on the PS5 if you haven't played it yet. ![]() This PS3 title was remastered for the PS4 and is part of the PS Plus Collection. Sony and Naughty Dog have really raised the bar when it comes to storytelling in video games.
