I liked Deathloop, the hours that I have been with him have been entertaining and in no case has it been repetitive despite having to visit some situations with certain recurrence. However, Arkane has been very conservative in a proposal that I think could have given the player a little more freedom. Well cohesive in its mechanics, it is one point below the rest of the studio's games in the last decade in terms of level design, but it is enough to continue to be above the majority. He fails to be outstanding in almost anything he does, including the invasion mode with Julianna, but still a good title worth enjoying. [Recommended]

An independent ray of light in a dark forest full of triple-A projects. Inspired, hard and charming: this is one of the titles you must play this year.

Easier than its predecessor, except for the final chapter. But The Room Two retains all the charm and mysticism that makes it unique.

I have enjoyed exploring Sword of the Sea and its landscapes, aware that this sensory philosophy is what it aims to offer. However, its mechanics have potential that never quite come into their own.

Owlboy is a fantastic adventure with enjoyable gameplay.

The PC version of Monster Hunter: World follow the steps of other ports for the platform. They’re always correct, but without that extra push of polish and options that could have been implemented.

A very solid port with very good results in terms of framerate. Although image quality and resolution are not at their best, it’s a sacrifice to make in order to play Diablo III on the go.

Bad Company 2: Vietnam is the best option to add extra value to the best on-line action shooter this far.

Addictive and classic Pac-Man gameplay combined with new features like power ups and an endless runner feel.

Kentucky Route Zero is the demonstration that the indie landscape still has surprises for us. Pure artistic expression from its beginning to its end is a profound title in its themes that satisfy the most demanding users and interested in the different aspects that pursue the new narrative in video games. However, you can lose others and have some moments when your story can be too confusing if you don't follow it carefully. Anyway, we are facing a revolutionary and daring work and you should not stop giving it a chance.

It's crazy and funny. If you haven't had the pleasure of playing Joe the first time on PSN, this version is a must buy.

Owlboy is a fantastic adventure with enjoyable gameplay.

The Talos Principle is an awesome surprise, and not just for puzzle games fans.

Hitman 3 is the closing to a trilogy that has accompanied us for the last five years that risks little in its standard version. Some new gadgets such as the camera or the implementation of situations against the clock try to give a breath of fresh air to a delivery that cannot be removed from the seal of continuity. However, everything that has accompanied Agent 47 during these years is still there and lovers of the saga will appreciate it. Obviously the graphic update of previous games and the incorporation of VR mode on PlayStation is something that cannot be looked the other way. However, I would have appreciated a greater effort in narrative terms in this ending, perhaps the weakest point of the saga in these editions. All in all, this is a good game that offers the user a huge amount of hours if what you want is to get the most out of each of its well-worked scenarios. [Recommended]

The great Civilization VI works perfectly well in Nintendo Switch. Is one of the best strategic game of the last years, and it's pure addictive thanks to portable mode.

I have spent 39 great hours with this remake, its brilliant combat system, the good memories and tributes to the original work and the committed expansion of the story. And one hour, the final, of complete uncertainty. The balance is positive. The aftertaste, bitter.

For $10, anyone who loves Red Dead Redemption or the horror movies should pick this add-on up.

Pokemon Black/White is, without doubt, the best Pokemon ever.

Dragon Quest IX is epic entertainment. It is possibly one of the finest examples of the genre available on Nintendo DS.
