The 10 best video games of 2024 (so far)

At its midpoint, 2024 has been an incredible year for playing video games.

Emphasis on playing because it needs to be said that it is not a great time to work in video games. Massive layoffs have ravaged the industry in recent months, leaving many talented people without consistent sources of income. I'm not here to bum you out, but I just needed to make sure we were on the same page about that.

Anyway, back to the part where 2024 has been excellent for playing games. The following 10 titles...

'Tuesday' review: An annoying fairy tale that will make you yearn for Death's sweet embrace

Daina O. Pusi?'s directorial feature-length debut Tuesday is a confoundingly bad work of cinema.
