Mario Tennis Aces has some of the best gameplay mechanics that we have ever seen in a tennis game. It’s fun, balanced and fair, making this game a potential multiplayer success. However, the lack of single player content and a dedicated competitive system makes this launch relatively incomplete.

Just Dance 2018 is an improvement over the previous version; everything that was already working has been improved, the menus are now more intuitive and simple, and Ubisoft is still thinking about the kids in the house. Without a doubt, it will be one of the great successes of this Christmas, especially in the Nintendo platforms.

EA Sports has delivered the most complete UFC game ever. This fighting simulator features an amazingly realistic combat gameplay and one of its few flaws is that the Career Mode is a little bit repetitive. Essential for those who love fighting games or enjoy the sport.

The 15-year wait for the saga has been good for this brand new installment, as it has a depth of gameplay worthy of the best RPGs of the moment. Its great customization of each character's play style is very addictive and its artistic style and setting are beautiful, but it is also weighed down by a story with good ideas but improvable execution and an exploration that does not stand out.

Last Day of June is a game that, even though it is not as emotional as it could seem, does a great job entertaining the player and delivers a story where everything revolves around the memories.

This second installment of Killing Floor is a videogame with a strong and marked personality. It is as funny as gory and very entertaining for the fans of online shooters.

A Rose in the Twilight is a challenging puzzle game with the appearance of a tale which will be very rewarding to the players. It lacks some features, but it is worth a try.

Sloclap has delivered one of the best indie games of this 2017. Although it lacks a deep and more interesnting story, it has unique combat and gameplay mechanics that are rewarded with a great progression. An amazing journey and a stunning game.

Cattails is a big surprise. A game that initially looks extremely simple but that deep down hides lots of mechanics, systems and high quality content that can keep us playing for dozens of hours. Despite some flaws, it’s an easy-to-recommend experience.

One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4 excels as a One Piece game. It may not be perfect, given that musou games tend to easily become repetitive. However, as it stands right now, there is no better way to experience Eiichiro Oda's work in the videogames community.

The return of Joe Madureira to the videogame industry comes with a great game. Amazing visuals and artistic style that match perfectly its great gameplay mechanics.

This is not a memorable game, but it is a gift for all the fans of Digimon, and its simple mechanics help to approach it to any kind of player. Its story becomes diffuse and you may lose the interest, but even with that it is pretty fun.

Rebirth is a new face to the saga and, thanks in no small part to its magnificent script, it is actually the best game of the franchise. However, it takes a considerable step back as a survival horror. The enemies lack any sense of real terror and the overall difficulty of the game is quite low. Basically, Rebirth is a great adventure game, but it also is extremely disappointing as a horror game.

Gran Turismo comes to PlayStation 4 clearly focused on the online content and on the eSports, forgetting too much about the single player mode. Polyphony Digital has decided to bring something new to the saga thanks to better gameplay mechanics and realism.

Far Harbor is a DLC that has lived up to expectations. Its plot is complex, different and it features a new map which is well-developed.

Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book is a breath of fresh air in the genre of JRPG. This game features a mundane story but in a fantasy world where the dreams of the characters are more important than the plot.

Although it does not bring anything new compared with previous versions, Yooka-Laylee is perfect for Nintendo Switch and its type of gameplay will make you stay playing this fun game for lots of hours.

Wild Hearts S achieves its primary goal: bringing a solid and distinctive hunting experience to the Nintendo Switch 2. It's not the best way to play Wild Hearts, but it's a competent port that understands its limitations and works within them.

This remastered version of Resident Evil 5 has not changed even a bit. The graphics are still the same as in the original game, released seven years ago. This “remaster” is for players who have not tried the original.

Wulverblade is an excellent game. The mix of beat ‘em up with side-scrolling hack ‘n’ slash creates a superb adventure that, added to its thrilling story and lovely artistic design, stands as a great acquisition, even though it lacks long-term content.

Maliki: Poison of the Past is a pleasantly surprising game. It offers an innovative combat system, a visually enchanting world, and charismatic characters. Its flaws, though present, don't overshadow the many things it does well.

The Medium is a game with neither big flaws nor anything it really excels at. The gameplay is quite simple and the story kind of reaches a mid point in between a horror book and a socio-political discourse that do not really match. In the end, it all amounts to a mediocre game by Bloober Team that, most likely, will have been forgotten by the end of the year.

HEXWORKS has managed to take the best and the worst of the legendary From games, but adding new mechanics that make the title look fabulous. We have fascinating bosses, large areas to explore and enemies that I would not want to see even in my worst nightmares. Without a doubt, we are facing one of the great surprises of 2023 and it has most likely established the basis of some mechanics for future Soulslike-type titles.

Ghostwire: Tokyo is a game that makes no effort to define itself with specific premises and, paradoxically, it ends up being what catches you the most.

TMNT: Splintered Fate is a roguelike that, while not reinventing the wheel, offers a solid and entertaining experience, especially for fans of the Ninja Turtles.

SAND LAND is definitely a good open world game, but not a game that exactly lives up to Akira Toriyama's legacy. It is unfortunate that SAND LAND's release and Toriyama's death ended up so close to each other, but it makes you feel like they could have done more with a title that finds its strengths in how close it follows the manga and how nice the fights on vehicles feel.

Patapon 2: Remastered brings back a PSP classic that improves throughout the first part and does so with a new face lift but without any additional playable additions in its proposal. Fun, challenging and full of secrets, it is a real experience to make you an ally of these nice beings.

RUINER is a game that wins the player with its very well done cyberpunk style, a gameplay system based on speed and a sweet violence aura that is everywhere. A great game that is one of this year best surprises.
