Oh yea I forgot. After you defeat Mouse Hortler there's a QTE where you punch him as he cries and his pants fall down.

Not sure if it's what you want.
Love these.
Digseum. A short game, only a couple hours, but fantastic.
Universal Paperclip. Free clicker browser game. A classic.
Carmageddon Rogue Shift. Is Rogue, in a racing game. Meta progression is quite fast.
Another Zombie Survivors is pretty good.
Not as loved but thought I'd mention.
Planet Crafter. I hate this game, but most people I know love it.
Nova Lands. Troon art style, and a bit of waiting/grinding, especially late game. But fun progression based game.
Various hole digging games. A Game About Digging A Hole is the popular one. Spotter Dig or Die has been doing the rounds recently.

Anyone played Gray Zone Warfare and has an opinion to share ? Didn't have it on my radar, but it seems to be like Tarkov without the need to shill out for a PvE mode.

Welp. Against my better judgement I replayed Starfield since I'd never played the DLC and a new one recently came out. 70 hours in, things are going well enough. Suddenly hit a bug that prevents me from progressing the new DLC and sticks me with a companion I don't wat since for whatever reason they made it so once you start this many hours long DLC you cannot dismiss him. So any stealth missions are undoable.
This annoyed me to the point that I've shelved the game in hopes they patch it later. Stupid me, I know, but what a waste of my time.

Was playing this earlier until xcloud shit the bed. Quite engaging and chill, although the uncle Ben fight is pissing me off.
Also playing through hades 2, mechanics were weird at first but once you get it its just more hades.

While playing The Coin Game I was suddenly filled with both melancholy and nostalgia for a liminal time and place that no longer exist. Quite an achievement for a bargain bin game about a kid sneaking out to play arcade machines. The more of the map I explored, the more I am convinced the effect was deliberate. This is one of those rare games where the ambience is just right despite the lo-res and occasional jank.
There is an attention to detail in the recreations of old gravity-based boardwalk machines that is satisfying, yet it's the shorthand recreations of familiar interiors that hit and hold. An old mall at night, everything but the cinema and the games arcade closed. You can annoy the Jewelers by cutting across their closing shop. An indoor go-cart center, with a loving recreation of Laser Quest upstairs. A rip-off carnival with rigged shooting galleries and unfair hoop games down by the beach. A pirate-themed indoor mini-golf building, with remote controlled galleons on the artificial lake.
Part of the game is evading capture in between venues, ducking along the fluorescent emptiness of deserted parking lots, or across unlit public parks. There was a time when you could do that without fearing for your life, imagine that now.
Very clever use of sparse game assets. Totally worth a torrent, don't forget to collect your yellow tickets.

Having played Mouse and having gone back and looked at their earlier demos, it's very blatantly clear that their original vision was massively compromised somewhere along the way. I'm not talking about the story specifically even though it is cringy for all the obvious reasons - constant references (some of which aren't even clever or suitable in context), dialogue that drags on forever (most of which is thankfully skippable so the devs weren't complete morons), BMP being a blatant stand-in for the BNP and the main bad guy being so obviously based on Oswald Mosley (surprised they didn't make a Mosley/Mouse-ley pun considering they did that shit with almost everything else) and the shrews being a not-so-subtle stand-in for Jews (amusingly enough they picked an animal to represent them that has a very distinctive, long, slightly hooked nose in real life). That stuff is eye-roll-worthy enough but even the gameplay is shit.
1) All of the weapons are borderline worthless without upgrades. The Tommy Gun and the Devarnisher are basically the only weapons you'll need because the Micer is piss-weak and the Boomstick/Kiss Kiss are useless beyond point-black range. Loose Cannon has minimal splash damage and so you're just wasting ammo unless you score a direct hit. Jar-Head and the Portable Freezer are both obtained in the last few levels when the game is basically over. You also have an unlockable "space gun" that's literally weaker than the starting pistol.
2) Enemies are tanky for no real reason even when scoring headshots. And it's very unintuitive because some of the bigger enemies go down relatively quickly while the smaller ones can eat a dozen bursts of lead to the face before peacing out. And every fight is basically just funnelling the player from arena to arena, it reminded me a lot of the nu-Wolfenstein games, specifically The New Colossus. And that's not a good thing. And the black and white aesthetic makes it incredibly hard to see in some of the darker levels.
3) Weird design decisions like almost all of the power-ups except the hot chilli being limited to special story-specific encounters instead of being available normally like in every other regular FPS and the flashlight being context-sensitive for some bizarre reason. It's things like this that made me suspect that this game was heavily influenced by external meddling because this is the kind of retarded shit that no dev worth his salt would implement but an idiotic publishing executive would. Even the rubber-hose effect is more exaggerated than in earlier demos.
4) Levels cannot be replayed again after finishing them. And there is no post-level counter for secrets like in almost every other proper modern FPS so you won't even know that you missed something. And considering that the game loves locking doors behind the player so backtracking is impossible, it means that you're basically guaranteed to miss out on stuff to complete side missions or missing out on upgrade blueprints. The level design is also pretty shit hence why they had to introduce hand-holding mechanics.
5) Money is pointless, only useful thing you can spend it on is baseball cards to make winning card games easier except that the only reason you need to win card games is so you can unlock the utterly worthless "space gun" that I mentioned earlier. So there's literally no point to it. The only useful collectibles in the game are blueprints to upgrade your weapons. They also removed weapons like the sniper rifle and the Lewis gun which were in gameplay videos literal weeks before release - publisher meddling and developer greed, I'm guessing.
You know what this game reminded me of? Bioshock: Infinite. Has the same pitfalls. Except Bioshock: Infinite had color and nice aesthetics. This has neither.
For once IGN was right on the money. This shit doesn't warrant more than a 6/10.

Longer thought:
This game scratches an itch I've had for a long, long time. The basic mechanics are pretty simulationist, as an enemy with a pistol can OHK you with a lucky shot to the dome and you're not going to be sniping people mid-dolphin-dive. Since it's not built around competitive multiplayer, not really, it's not driven by exploiting the meta or edge cases in the control scheme - no sniper tapdance wars, no getting BTFO because you didn't know the meta build, no getting raped in the dark because you forgot to max out your screen brightness and make the game look like washed-out shit so you get that marginal advantage, etc. You can approach the game quasi-realistically and have a good time. The online nature of it means players spontaneously help each other, as unlike, say, Diablo IV, it can get pretty tough solo.

I really wish it was possible to have a conversation about Mouse PI without the comments either being flooded with glazers defending it because "IGN said bad" or Jewspergs making the same comments for the 879345th time.

With every passing day I regret my daughter screwing up 2FA on my Ubisoft account when she installed it on her machine less and less. She clicked okay on "enable 2FA" when installing the client on her PC and yada, yada, yada'ed past the "save this for future logins" backup code years ago. After I finished FC3 nothing else they published interested me. The Division was hacker hell.

Well "PopCap Party Pack" is currently on sale but honestly if you can i would rec you to wait for summer sale since it is just around the corner (like in 61days lol but still kinda close 25th June) also for VR MAKE SURE your VR is good since before i bought VR i got a bunch of VR games and it turned out that my eyes were too sensitive for it and now i have few VR exclusives just rotting in my steam library (just rent the VR 1st to see how it is dont trust the shit you see on revs)
And i would go with Dead Space 2 i guess
