GotG shines in a saturated comic-based movie environment. Great characters and actors that breathe life into them make this more than just a great popcorn movie.
The visuals are gorgeous and make the universe both believable and fantastic without coming off like a Star Wars prequel. An origin story for a set of new (to movie audiences) characters that doesn't fall prey to the same tropes common to many similar films and yet still covers enough of the backstories without bogging down the progress of the plot.
Highly recommended to fans of the MCU and casual fans alike.

I review this as someone who played and finished GTA V on 360.
Is this game worth a purchase if you have already played it on previous gen consoles? Yes, but with caveats.
If you always wanted to see what could be done with a GTA game without the early attempts to build on like GTA IV, then this is what you have been looking for. GTA V on PS4/XB1 has all the improvements that you should expect in the form of improved textures, increased viewing distance and increased numbers of NPCs. No more will you see a wide city with no traffic or repeating cars like in the old games with limited system memory. It is a huge showcase game that offers just enough new to refresh the experience with it's first person camera. Whether that's enough is a personal choice and may not be for everyone.
If you haven't played it on previous gen, then I highly recommend it for fans of the genre.

If you are a fan of South Park, you owe it to yourself to play this game. There are a lot of callbacks to previous episodes and the sense of being in an episode is completely realized. Were it just for that, the game would be fun, but there is a well thought out and fun RPG with lots of customization and style and ties in nicely with the episodes that set the game up.
You exist in a treacherous world of fantastic beasts, otherworldly creatures and lethal humans, so it's no surprise that danger waits around every corner. You know what it takes to find victory on the battlefield ~ skill and endurance, not to mention a fair dose of courage. But when you find yourself facing a demonic army led into the fray by the lords and generals of a maniacal fallen god, it will take everything you have and more to stay alive. You know how to handle your weapons and you have all the right moves ~ will that be enough bring down your unstoppable enemy?Lords of the Fallen is a heart-pounding action RPG that pits you against the demon army of a fallen god and the nefarious lords and generals in his service. Step into a medieval fantasy world populated with dangerous inhabitants, where nothing is quite what it seems and safety is only a pleasant dream. Learn about the evolving history of your world and your character ~ everything you know can change in the blink of an eye based on the steps you take and choices you make. Wage challenging battles and duel with opponents of varying difficulty, including deadly lords and generals, supernatural entities, tricky human beings and even massive beasts. Prove your fighting skills in combat by achieving expertise in a variety of medieval fighting techniques and weaponry, as well as developing an amazing array of supernatural abilities. Identify yourself as a warrior, rogue or cleric ~ or blend abilities to perfect your fighting style ~ and collect gear to help you on your journey. Explore secret areas to stock up on weapons, armor and upgrades. Are you willing to suffer the tyrannical rule of a fallen god? Or are you ready to break free?

Disclaimer: I have not played the Dark/Demon Souls games which LotF pulls inspiration from.
LotF is a fun and well-designed game with a focus on attack patterns and improving one's own abilities.
The progression system rewards exploration and learning your abilities through use rather than skill check-box marking of abilities. Your character improves and this opens up your effective weapon options. You can use that great-sword at level one, but you won't be able to handle well it until you have the strength (or one of the other primary attributes) to be support it.
The world looks nice as do the enemies. One drawback is the limited number of enemy types, as you only seem to face the demon like race of Rhogars.
Exploration is rewarded with added weapons, armor and other useful items like runes or consumable energy shards. The risk/reward system of death and experience loss/health regen of a ghost in your presence works well and lets both cautious and risky players play to their choice.
All it takes is the swipe of a finger. We connect with friends. We buy the latest gadgets and gear. We find out what's happening in the world. But with that same simple swipe, we cast an increasingly expansive shadow. With each connection, we leave a digital trail that tracks our every move and milestone, our every like and dislike. And it's not just people. Today, all major cities are networked. Urban infrastructures are monitored and controlled by complex operating systems.In Watch Dogs, this system is called the Central Operating System (CTOS) ~ and it controls almost every piece of the city's technology and holds key information on all of the city's residents. You play as Aiden Pearce, a brilliant hacker, whose criminal past led to a violent family tragedy. Now on the hunt for those who hurt your family, you'll be able to monitor and hack all who surround you by manipulating everything connected to the city's network. Access omnipresent security cameras, download personal information to locate a target, control traffic lights and public transportation to stop the enemy... and more.

Hacking is fun and opens up new ways to play within the world. Online hacking is a great thrill on both sides. Graphics on PS4 are quite good for the most part and night-time rain storms look great. The attention to detail can be quite high in some areas of the game, while less-used areas are merely functional.
Driving model is not as tight as other open world games; the vehicles feel too floaty and you don't get a sense of weight, unlike in GTA V. Side quests can start to feel like a checklist of things to do and are not as diverse as in GTA

What's great about it: Fun open-world sandbox with lots to do
What's not so great: Driving model not as tight as it could be
