There’s a recent meme, created in the wake of so many Aaa developers releasing mediocre games under crunch conditions, expressing the need for shorter games with worse graphics made by people paid more to work less. That’s a sentiment worth rooting for, but Lord of the Rings: Gollum really presses up against the limits of the goodwill behind it.
Indeed, this is a game that looks like a remastered PS3 title, only one that plays like a PC game from the early 2000s. That’s not a problem in and of itself—the same mentality that’s made boomer shooters a flourishing genre can be applied successfully to the puzzle-platformer—but just like the character at its center, Gollum is in sad, broken shambles, held together only by the faint belief that the good things about it are enough to make its existence worthwhile.

Best Pop Vocal Album is undoubtedly one of my favorite Grammy categories. The award has gone to many greats in pop music, from The Beatles to Billie Eilish. But one of my personal favorites has to be Sade’s 2001 win for their iconic album, “Lovers Rock,” one of the band’s most celebrated works. While Sade winning a Grammy wasn’t unusual, “Lovers Rock” differs from what you’d typically expect in a Best Pop Vocal Album winner, showing how much respect the band had from their peers against some heavy competition.
Sade was already well-liked by the Grammys before “Lovers Rock.” The group took home the coveted Best New Artist award in 1986 thanks to the success of their debut album, “Diamond Life,” as well as their sophomore release, “Promise,” which was peaking while voting was occurring. Their next win would come in 1994 for “No Ordinary Love,” the lead single off their fourth record,...
