3 Stars
⭐⭐⭐ | A 3-star rating is the highest possible rating. This rating is reserved for excellent titles with broad appeal. 3-star games offer a sustained level of quality that is rarely seen in the industry. These games invite and reward multiple playthroughs and are highly recommended. 3-star games are the kinds of games that you’ll want to play over and over, regardless of size of your library or ever-growing backlog. |
