The 10 Best PlayStation Games To Buy Right Now


By Timothy Teoh September 30, 2024

2023 is indeed to be a standout year for Sony and its PlayStation gaming brand.

It’s also a good time to subscribe to PlayStation Plus, where you’ll gain access to some free games. Of course, these are temporary additions which is why it’s better to get some titles permanently.

Here are our top 10 gaming picks, featuring both 2023’s heavy hitters and some beloved classics.

#1. Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 (RM299)

We’ll start big: Insomniac’s big superhero comic book game is one good reason to buy a PlayStation 5. This superhero-filled action-adventure open-world title puts you in the suit of not just one Spider-Man, but two of them!

You can play as play as either Peter Parker or Miles Morales, each with their own set of crime-fighting skills and powers, as they take on a new threat involving a new criminal organization muscling into town. Marvel’s Spider-Man 2’s version of New York is bigger and more packed with focused questlines and activities, not to mention new supervillains from Spider-Man lore to defeat.

#2. Final Fantasy XVI (RM299)

Next is the sixteenth mainline entry in the iconic Japanese RPG series, Final Fantasy XVI, exclusive to PlayStation. Much like how previous Final Fantasy games were during the OG PlayStation and PlayStation 2 days. Final Fantasy XVI leans toward the character action route not unlike your Devil May Cry titles, where you play as Clive who is good at both swordplay, juggle combos, and using Eikons (Summons) as magical attacks.

FFXVI’s story is also engaging, opting for a dark fantasy motif and touching on heavy themes. Most importantly, the game’s spectacle and music are pushing boundaries in tech, with near-instant loading, smooth transitions from cutscenes to gameplay (and vice versa), and a ton of spell-related fireworks. It may not be a conventional JRPG, but this Final Fantasy sure is fun and worth your 30+ hours. Especially with the now-available Echoes of the Fallen DLC and 2024 DLC that promises more than 10 hours of new content.

    Happy Valentine’s Day: The Best Couples In Gaming


    By Timothy Teoh September 28, 2024

    Valentine’s Day has arrived yet again. A special day for everyone to show their love for their better half or loved one. A day for all the hopeless romantics of the world. Hearts and loving emotions fill the air. Love is in the air, love is everywhere, and there’s a lot of love in gaming as well. From the days of Mario saving Princess Peach to now, there have been a lot of cute and hot couples in games.

    In celebration of this year’s Valentine’s Day, here are some of our picks:

    Mario And Princess Peach (Super Mario Bros.)

    Yes, we know that Mario and Princess Peach are as cliched as they come, but they’re iconic for a reason. They’re the video game equivalent of comics’ Superman/Clark Kent and Lois Lane. They started out as the stereotypical hero and damsel in distress but they have grown so much together over the years. So much so that even Hideo Kojima referenced them in 2019’s Death Stranding in the now-infamous scene.

    Cody And May (It Takes Two)

    It Takes Two is critically acclaimed and beloved for good reason; and that’s for depicting and focusing on a realistic relationship of a married couple on the verge of divorce, which is extremely rare in games. The game is still one of the most played games amongst gamer couples (both in the relationship are gamers) or gamers with their non-gamer partners. Their experiences are always wholesome and adorable, which is why this game is still one of the most recommended games for couples to play.
