    Battlefield Hardline fails in rebranding DICE's series but its core is still enjoyable. And when it does the Battlefield, there’s still a lot of fun.

    Sid Meier's Starships is a good introduction to 4X games or a good way to entertain yourself during long trips. It doesn't have Civ's depth, but it still is a enjoyable game.

    White Night is a collection of already explored mechanics dressed in a peculiar, elegant and often uncomfortable suit. Very stylish, but too dull and punishing when it comes to actual gameplay.

    Ori and the Blind Forest is a harsh and evil metroidvania concealed behind a pretty face. You’ll need to time your jump precisely, you’ll need to save at the right time, you’ll need quick reflexes, and you will swear. A lot.

    DmC: Devil May Cry Definitive Edition is a nice remaster of an already fun and entertaining game. Ninja Theory has done a great job adding new challenges, modes and difficulty levels, creating a nice package for the true hardcore gamers.

    Expensive, bugged, unpolished. Sadly Tristoy fails to deliver what it promises and manages to bore after a couple dozen minutes. It may entertain you only if you’re really into the genre, otherwise just look somewhere else.

    ScreamRide is not a perfect game but it’s fun and loaded with 3 different campaigns, 50 levels and a sandbox mode where you can build and share the roller coasters of your dreams. Don’t miss it if you’ve loved RollerCoaster Tycoon series.

    Republique Remastered is a short but well crafted stealth experience, originally developed for iOS and now available for PC and Mac. A good story and a polished gameplay are definitely on the plus side, but this remastered edition fails in offering something new, and is suggested only to those at their first encounter with the game.

    Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars is a nice, small and interesting game, with a perfect level design and cute graphics. Its affordable price, the cross-buy and cross-play options between 3DS and Wii U, plus huge social element, are enough to keep you interested for many hours.

    Dynasty Warriors 8: Empires makes a few nice additions to the original formula: the marriage system and the possibility of having a child are nice touches, and the new strategies on the battlefield are both useful and interesting. If you like musou games but you’re put off by their boring action, this is the game for you.

    Ace Combat Assault Horizon Legacy Plus is not a brand new game, but it tries its best adding more fun to the original title, working on the New Nintendo 3DS extra features. The Amiibo addiction is pretty useless, but the new dynamic 3D grants a new layer to this good experience.

    Joe Danger 2: The Movie for PlayStation Vita is easily the best version of the game available on any platform. Four Door Lemon and Hello Games delivered once again a perfect experience packed with tons of contents and a fun gameplay.

    This new version of the classic twin-stick shooter is slightly better than the one available on Wii U, but if you love the genre and you don’t own the Nintendo console, this could be an interesting product even with a poor amount of content.

    Dead or Alive 5 Last Round is the same, good, fighting game we talk about few years ago, now at rock solid 60fps/1080p, with 34 characters and a huge load of stages and costumes. Will this be the final edition of the game? Probably not, but if you’re looking for a fun and spectacular fighting game, sold at budget price, this is your best choice.

    Ironfall Invasion looks (a bit) and plays (a lot) like a mobile game. It lacks the depth and refinement of a “premium” console title, and overall ends up being an extremely generic and unappealing gameplay experience.

    Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate is the perfect way to start playing this popular franchise. It's way more accessible than the previous episodes, but it still lacks a proper modernization. Some of its gameplay mechanics are too old for a modern action-rpg, but despite that it's still fun and entertaining.

    The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask for the New Nintendo 3DS is a great remake, with many interesting changes from the original formula. Most of the new features work in a great way, offering a smooth and lovely gaming experience. Zora’s new swimming system is a little bit disappointing, clumsy and less fun than the original one. Both new players and fans of the original Nintendo 64 game should give this new Majora’s Mask the right amount of love.

    Four good maps and EXO Zombies are the highlights of Havoc. Every Advanced Warfare player will enjoy the new scenarios but zombies fan are those that should really take this DLC into account. EXO Zombies is a lot of fun and EXO movements are a good addition to the classic gameplay.

    A remake that could satisfy the seasoned player with support for higher resolutions, but that fails in providing new content. Now it's possible to play online thanks to Steamworks, but that’s the only novelty of a (still appealing) game that has 15 years on his back, and does nothing to hide it.

    Grim Fandango is still one hell of an adventure, even after all these years. The problem with this remastered version is that Double Fine has done very little to make it tastier for the modern player. The result is a very nice game with very poor visuals and a “remaster” that tastes like easy cash.

    Resogun on PlayStation Vita is the best example on how a game should be ported from PlayStation 4 to Sony’s handheld. Fun and gorgeous to play and watch like the original version, Resogun on Vita is one of the best portable games released this year. Well done Climax Studios.

    Gat out of Hell is not the best way to expand the brand. Less story and more gameplay show how old and rough gameplay is. Volition's brand needs to be over the top to appeal it's fans, and this DLC rarely do it.

    Warhammer Quest is an old school boardgame-tablet-port RPG that fails to enhance itself for a platform that requires a bit more both in terms of gameplay and aesthetics. If a light RPG adventure is what you are after then Warhammer Quest is a sure bet, but if you're looking for something on par with what the PC market offers nowadays then definitely look elsewhere.

    With the Dead Kings DLC, Ubisoft has done a good job adding interesting mechanics and ideas to the original (and quite boring) Unity’s gameplay. Despite the lack of an interesting story, this DLC is entertaining thanks to the different peace granted by the Catacombs, with their nice puzzles. It’s a free DLC. Just enjoy it, and have fun.

    The great soundtrack and the distinctive art-style are the two main things that we noticed during our first play through. After that is all laughs thanks to a witty dark humor, and fun thanks to an old-school hardcore rogue-like. This is a good indie game, aimed to a very specific audience.

    Super Smash Bros. is a shiny masterpiece, and one of the most entertaining and universal fighting party games out there. If you have a Nintendo Wii U, than you need this game, in order to play it casually with your family and friends, or to compete online against the best players around the world.

    With a brand new story, new characters, new game modes, and other minor and major changes, Persona 4 Arena Ultimax is a great way to expand the previous fighting game born from the cooperation between Atlus and Arc System Works.

    With this porting from the PS3 and the Xbox 360, something has gone terribly wrong. Not only the Wii U hardware hasn’t been used in the right way, but in six months nothing interesting has been added to the game by the developers.

    Despite the expectations, Destiny's first DLC not only doesn't solve the flaws of the game, but makes them more evident. The lack of contents is evident and the story still remains unclear. It will be hard to find something to do for the next three months, when next DLC should arrive.

    Lara Croft's return to the isometric 3D world benefits from a juicy yet functional 60fps-graphics, room for two more friends to join the fray and a decent amount of things to do and tombs to raid.

    Assassin’s Creed Unity is not the evolution everyone was looking for.
