Boring and afflicted by numerous bugs, Pixel Piracy could have been an engaging and enjoyable adventure. Unfortunately, the ideas end up too quickly and the crafting system reveals all its limits.

An ambitious voyage through time that unfortunately loses its way very soon.

The final product fails to do justice to the many good ideas on which Illusion: A Tale of the Mind rests. And there is nothing worse than to feel curiosity about the plot of a game that, alas, bores us. The five hours we took to complete the adventure seemed much longer to us.

Quotation forthcoming.

A disappointing sequel that resembles (in the worst way) everything we've seen in the previous entries of the series. Fun to play for a very short period, the linear gameplay and the lack of multiplayer and co-op mode make this game a failure under many aspects. It could be worth a rental for the week-end, but there are better ways to spend money and time.

Quotation forthcoming.

Fans of Ben 10's saga may enjoy this new entry in the videogame series, but Cosmic Destruction is indeed a poor title that everyone else should avoid.

Aliens: Fireteam Elite is a disappointing cooperative horde shooter in every respect. The gameplay is flat and derivative while the story is not interesting enough to keep the player entertained until the end of the campaign. Playing with friends can be fun at times but the Aliens franchise deserves way more.

Fans of Ben 10's saga may enjoy this new entry in the videogame series, but Cosmic Destruction is indeed a poor title that everyone else should avoid.

Considering its overall lack of polish and gameplay depth, War in the North proves to be a mediocre hack 'n' slash that will only appeal to real fans of the brand.

The Roland Garros update is another failed set point for Tennis World Tour. SEGA, pleas, bring back the good-old Virtua Tennis days.

The mechanics have the same potential as ever, but once again it stays largely untapped. Same old approach, same old flaws that undermine the game's strong points.

Conan Unconqured is a survival RTS Tower defense set in the world of Conan the Barbarian. This spin-off certainly tries to appeal RTS lovers, but despite some smart and original ideas, the game lacks depth and becomes boring after a few hours, also due to the absence of competitive multiplayer both offline and online. Co-op multiplayer is good but definitely not enough to keep the game standing among giants of the RTS genre.

Not everything turns out to be as good it should: Babel Rising is a really good game on the iOS/Mobile environment, but loses part of its spirit in its consoles version. With a boring and linear gameplay and an insufficient Kinect control-schema, it represents a missed chance in XBLA market.

Army Corps of Hell is a decent mix of different ideas which is unfortunately not making the most out of PlayStation Vita.

Elex has been a highly underexposed experience with a huge amount of bugs, without a characterizing element that could elevate the game against the competition.

One Piece Romance Dawn is a simple porting of the original JRPG developed for PSP long time ago. Nothing has been done in order to enhance the original experience, which is still as dull as ever. The Italian translation is good news, but that's simply not enough.

Conan the Barbarian meets the Phantom of Sparta in this good-looking action game… unfortunately its technical problems blow-up everything else.

DC Super Hero Girls: Teen Power would have been a great game with the right improvements. Despite this it’s a good game recommended for children.

Shadwen is a flawed experience, but can be an enjoyable treat if you love stealth-games with interesting mechanics and effective level design.

Quotation forthcoming.

Warriors Orochi 3 Hyper keeps the usual good and bad features from the never ending Musou series, but is plagued by a terrible implementation. Even many months and a console later from the original release, this version is sadly the worst of the pack.

Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage 2 is a kick to Hokuto no Ken fans' dream. Despite an accurate Story Mode, mediocre graphics, poor sound and a clumsy gameplay, transform this Tecmo Koei game into a sad nightmare.

Too clumsy to be really enjoyable.

After all these years of waiting, tennis fans deserved something better than this shallow and buggy pseudo-realistic sport experience.

Hatred is nothing more than a bad video game. Destructive Creations has done everything in order to get as much hype as possible, in order to sell a mediocre twin stick shooter. The lack of an interesting point of view about hate and violence is enough to ignore this product, even during the Steam sales.

Dungeon Fighter LIVE: Fall Of Hendon Myre doesn't work as well as the free-2-play edition. The poor animations, the lack of variety and clumsy controls are enough to ignore the Xbox LIVE version of the game. Just play the original one on PC.

A good project, released maybe too early to be really enjoyable. A lot of bugs distract the player from the main goal, witch is to try and innovate the WWE franchise. The hopes are all in future patches to bring the game to its full potential.

Way of the Samurai 4 is the perfect mirror of the modern Japanese videogame industry. Good, old ideas are still cool enough to entertain, but the clumsy and dated technical side can prevent people from buying the game.

Space Hulk: Deathwing is the classic game which will be remembered as the “what if”. The gorgeous and beautifully implemented Warhammer atmosphere is literally an empty box, given the huge problems the game has to face: horrible performance, crashes and huge loading times, tedious gameplay, stupid AI and a bad implemented progression system. There is a huge missed opportunity here.

The lack of a "real" Career Mode, the "freemium" content-unlock structure and some technical issues, make of MX vs ATV Alive one of the worst chapters of the long-lasting THQ series.

E.Y.E. Divine Cybermancy is the classic wasted opportunity due to the lack of resources and an insane ambition to try to cook too many meals onto the same kitchen's fire. The right dimension of this game should be that of a free mod: at 20 Euros, Steam 'shelves' are stuffed with commercial products much more worthy than this one.

Rise of Venice is really simple at its heart. The lengthy campaign isn’t too exciting and doesn’t pose a real challenge, and the other modes just can’t offer much else to be excited for.

TheGreat Perhaps sounds like a missed opportunity to deliver a truly enjoyable and unique piece of adventure.

Although the adventure offers an interesting prologue and some memorable moments, at least for horror lovers, the game is ruined by a reduced longevity, by the poverty of the gameplay and by the repetition of always identical mechanics.

After the success achieved by The Orange Box, every series tried to do the same with its own collection. Unfortunately, not all games are as good as Half-Life. We can say the same about Command & Conquer. The series is awesome but this ultimate collection doesn't offer any real reason to buy it. No extras, no more content, not even a decent emulation on the modern OS. Only for real fans of the series.

Considering its poorly paced adventure, Lonesome Road will only appeal to real fans of the series that will surely appreciate its narrative. If you're not among them, look elsewhere.

The Good Life is a game with all the credentials to attract the attention of lovers of games like Animal Crossing or real life simulators. In reality, all the potential remains imprisoned in an unfortunately inadequate gameplay realization.

Morbid: The Seven Acolytes is an indie adventure full of ambitions… too many ambitions! Despite the Bloodborne-style inspirations, the game is full of personality, a clear reflection of an extremely passionate vision, with very strong artworks and sound design, but everything else is simply pretty weak. The low difficulty, boss fights aside, along with a very basic gameplay devoid of any challenge, hinders what could have been something truly interesting.

Lot of content, little quality. A huge world to explore is not enough.

Namco plays with our feelings again with another (expensive) double serving of its Good Gold Days games. Feel old yet? You will!

Necromunda: Underhive Wars is potentially a splendidly entertaining tactical game with lot of depth and atmosphere but, at the moment, it is marred by a plethora of technical issues that make it a chore to play.

Bannermen is a mediocre attempt at providing a standard RTS following many clichés and archetypes. It sadly fails to live to even the basic requests of a modern game of this genre.

Quotation forthcoming.

We don't question the passion and goodwill of the developers, but perhaps, being Dolmen their first game, it would have been better for them to slow down and lay lower, aiming for a less ambitious project.

Skyhill is the umpteenth post-apocalyptic survival with a horror tone that lands on Steam. This time we’ll try to escape from an hotel infested with beasts mutated by a terrible weapon of mass destruction and it will not be fun.

A fun idea and quite an amusing gameplay but very, very, very short life span!

RPG Maker MV finally arrives on PS4 and Switch after five years its launch on PC. This porting feels too compromised without mouse and keyboard support, without the PC community and the chance to create commercial games for PC, browser web and mobile. Just grab the game on PC, as it's a much better version counting on the support of a solid community.

One of the easiest game you'll ever play this year, The Adventures of TinTin is certainly tailored for young children, but on the market there are far better games, like Toy Story 3 or Cars 2.

With this weak remake Ubisoft has ruined an awesome game which still looks and plays good despise of its age. Too many changes have been made to the original gameplay and none of them is good enough to improve the game.

Front Mission Evolved offers one of the worst single player experience of the entire series, but multiplayer saves the day. Bring some friends, take the fight online or leave it on the shelf.

Harvest Moon: Light of Hope Special Edition Complete is the new complete version for Nintendo Switch. Even though it shows a great completeness, it is not worthy of his name and it doesn't meet the expectations.

Despite the vast and intricate saga created by George R. R. Martin and some unusual games mechanics, Game of Thrones: Genesis doesn't catch the feeling of the Westerosi fight for the throne. Boring, predictable and visually poor, this is not what the fans of A Song of Ice and Fire deserve.

Front Mission Evolved offers one of the worst single player experience of the entire series, but multiplayer saves the day. Bring some friends, take the fight online or leave it on the shelf.

A comeback that doesn't live up with the expectations and the importance that Commandos licence brings with it.

Deus Ex: The Fall could have been a lot better on PC , but the bad porting definitely kills the fun.

Text: A little bit more than a demo for a potentially-interesting future project yet to be revealed.

A simple racing game with a decent gameplay but no ideas. The lack of fun and of any online option, make this cheap title for Wii U and PC a product advised only for a young audience. Next time Eclipse Games.

Because of a substantial lack of innovation, Dragon Ball Z: Tenkaichi Tag Team proves to be just another shallow iteration of a brand that seems to have completely lost the right track. If you're looking for a decent beat 'em up to add to your PSP collection, look elsewhere.

Budget price and no more. NecroVision fails.

Rory McIlroy PGA Tour is a good golf simulation, but it needs further refinements and eight real courses are too few.

Quotation forthcoming.

Spike ChunSoft's effort to create an hardcore, Kinect based Dragon Ball experience is not that good. The basic gameplay mechanics are ok, but they have failed in being entertaining due to the lack of variety. The reaction time of the hardware is quite a problem too, slowing down the pace of the fights. Younger Dragon Ball fans will be ok with the game anyway, just cause it's too cool to throw a Kamehameha in real-life.

The true hiccup of this old-style shooter is the foolish price on Steam. Valve's digital shelves are full of better arcade and indie games for the admission price tag of 18 Euros.

Considering that the adventure lasts for just one hour, only real fans of the franchise should consider the possibility of buying this DLC. If you're not among them, look elsewhere.

An uninspired video game, with modest gameplay and anonymous story. And missed opportunity too.

Sing Party is a boring party game with few game design issues. Developers used Wii U GamePad in a good way in a couple of modes only, and the final result is a mediocre karaoke experience.

After the PS3 and 360 version, H.A.W.X. 2 comes to Nintendo Wii, but with its repetitive gameplay and some technical problems, it is an unsatisfying version of this Ubi's brand.

Theme Park Studio is just an editor with no trace of management gameplay, full of bugs and difficult to handle.

Scribblenauts Showdown probably pays the price of its dual nature. It is an ambitious project that seems to have lost its compass mid-way, and in the clumsy attempt to make everyone happy, in the end it's likely to disappoint both those looking for a engaging puzzle game, and those who want to have fun with a quality party game.

The LEGO Movie 2 Videogame doesn't have the appeal of the classic LEGO videogames. It looks like a LEGO World reskin, without the movie’s humour and pace. And with a broken co-op.

Super Monkey Ball 3D offer three different modes, and just one of those is really fun. The Monkey Race has few gameplay problems and the Monkey Fight is quite boring. The 3D effect and the tilt controls can't be used together, which is a sad problem.

While many developers focus on free-to-play, Zombie Studios comes out with a nice, simple and original team based third person shooter. Special Forces Team X is interesting, in particular considering its main feature, a modular management map system which can create up to 1000 different maps. Unfortunately the game also suffers from some major technical issues that partially ruin the gameplay.

Good graphics, evocative art direction and a funny soundtrack aren't enough: Okabu mechanics are weak, very repetitive and most of all too easy. If you are looking for a challenging puzzle-game, you should definitely look into another direction.

Dead Nation on PlayStation Vita is simply the worst version of Housemarque's zombie shooter.

If you own Arkham City, maybe you'll be interested in this first DLC. Unfortunately, a new set of tricks, two maps and two character skins, aren't enough to justify the purchase.

Many indie games already proved that even the weirdest concept can be supported by a robust, addictive gameplay. Such is not the case with Knock-knock, that in the end just fails to entertain.

A smaller, dirtiest and less smart version of the good game available on the other platforms.

Immortal: Unchained is a souls like third person shooter game developed and published by Toadman Interactive. The idea of a souls like with guns is amazing, but the way it is developed, it looks like a set of beautiful non-original ideas stuck together.

Citizens of Earth wants to be the new EarthBound but fails the target due to a poor character design, a weak story and a boring turn based combat.

Farm Machine Championship 2014 lacks in appealing gameplay, game modes, technical quality and fun-factor, making this polish production valuable only for those gamers that are dying to drive a tractor.

A below-average short horror game that pretends to be an Alien: Isolation clone but fails in almost every possible way.

Although fans may be happy with the contents offered by Tekken Hybrid, an HD remake and an awful CG movie surely won't be enough for the majority of PS3 owners.

Beyond the mere narrative component, which will best capture only manga and anime (or Japanese) fans, The Princess Guide is an action-RPG with really a lot of meat on the fire. The problem is that this meat is so much that it ends up "burning". Translated: fast fights but too chaotic and dirty from a series of written on the screen to the limit of understandable, menu and submenu that will put in difficulty even the most experienced players.

Earth Defense Force 5 is a game with a loyal fanbase that certainly does not want revolutions in the genre. However, this is not an excuse for creating a lazy product, without an attempt at improvements yet still full-priced.

Steel Diver is a disappointing game, mixing an arcade nature with over-complicated controls. The result is a short and flat experience, maybe good for a two-days rental.

Lucius II is a decent game that improve some mechanics introduced in the previous title of the series providing several hours of fun. Unfortunately the experience is plagued by an enormous amount of unacceptable bug.

Epic Mickey 2 doesn't live up to the enormous Disney's legacy and atmospheres. The game simply doesn't have enough points of interest to keep the player attracted until the end of the game.

Quotation forthcoming.

Lili: Child of Geos suffers the heritage of the mobile world it comes from. Its brilliant graphics are not enough to overcome the lack of variety and the low longevity.

Great atmosphere and good potential for this Project Zero spin-off, that unfortunately fails in every other possible way.

The Lost Reels seems to tell us just one thing: there’s nothing more appropriate for this kind of games than a good friend and a couple of light guns. With oversimplified control system and poor contents, it’s far from being the “real” mobile incarnation of the cult game we played on Wii and PlayStation 3.

Kirby Fighters 2 is a fighting game that slightly resembles Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Unfortunately, its combat system feels way slower.

Spare Parts has a good concept and a clumsy realization. The idea is nice but the big number of technical problems transform a potentially good experience in a missed opportunity.

Spare Parts has a good concept and a clumsy realization. The idea is nice but the big number of technical problems transform a potentially good experience in a missed opportunity.

35MM is a miscellaneous melting pot of contents, without a well-defined project. Putting together a walking simulator, a survival horror and a shooter in not exactly a clear idea. Playing this game, one question arises: what exactly is this trying to communicate to the player?
