    FIFA 22 actually feels different from the rest of the franchise, but it's still the same old game. New movement mechanics open up new strategies of scoring, but the AI still feels pretty dumb sometimes. Overall, it's a solid soccer experience that fans likely wont's miss out.

    Who is this new version of Death Stranding for? The answer is extremely simple: for those who enjoyed and appreciated the work of the father of Metal Gear. Of course, it is also a product designed for those who, at the time, overlooked it for whatever reason. If you are in this situation and you are already the proud owner of a PS5, I would tell you that this is the best opportunity to try one of the best titles of the past generation of consoles and find out for yourself why we say it is. so special. I repeat, as someone who spent several dozen hours two years ago with the game, I would have loved to have an expansion the size of Iki Island that would allow me to know more about the lives of all these characters who made me go through such good times, even so. , it was a delight to return to travel these desolate landscapes with Sam Porter Bridges.

    Needless to say, if you are a fan of the series, especially what was done with Resident Evil VII a few years ago, you will be very happy with what Resident Evil Village presents to us. What I would tell you is that it may be better if you lower your expectations a bit in relation to the size of the game and the developer's own ambitions. The eighth installment of this beloved saga is one that complies in a very good way with almost everything it tries, bearing in a very dignified way the name it represents, however, it is also true that we would have loved to take more important risks and let events go more calmly to present a longer adventure. Anyway, Capcom once again proves its worth and that it continues to be at the forefront if we talk about AAA development.

    I think that if you were one of those who recently made the enormous expense to buy a PlayStation 5, you must have Returnal among your priorities, because it is precisely software that gives the hardware a sense of existence. It is useless to have all those capabilities without games that make the most of it. Housemarque's work has rekindled hope for what the developers will present to us in the future. The truth is that anxiety invades me because I already know what else has been prepared for us and more than anything else, it adds some flavor to this new generation that, as I already told you, had a strange beginning in large part due to the complicated situation that It surrounded us and continues to surround us to this day. Returnal is a celebration of the modernity and sophistication of the medium.

    Just as with Shovel Knight, the other game published by Yacht Club Games, Cyber Shadow is a true homage to classic NES games, in particular to the Ninja Gaiden trilogy. It has all the elements that we remember fondly from those years, such as a retro sound and looks, but it complements them with modern gameplay mechanics. If we take off some of its visual effects and its resolution, I do see myself playing it in a classic 8-bit console. You only need the directional pad and two buttons to play it.
