When The Past Was Around is an emotional story about love, pain and letting go, where the music is the real common thread.

Before the Storm represents a big appetizer for what comes next, but it’s something we already enjoyed (the original Life is Strange). Ups and downs in the rhythm of the story and a misuse of the best narrative and emotional moments don’t allow the prequel to be as memorable as the original game. The most beautiful moments of the experience are dimmed by a story that can’t really express itself the way it should and reach the long-waited climax the player would expect.

A good "metroidvania-style" adventure game, but its structure is a little bit too simple for the category. The level design is awesome, but the lack of a real challenge transforms a potentially great experience in something too flat for an hardcore gamer. Anyway, the game is still pretty good, and if you like Metroid-style adventures, you definitely have to try it.

Just like the previous chapters, Bravely Default II delivers a true-to-the-roots JRPG experience that is a little short in surprises, but truly enjoyable.

Crysis 3 is looking gorgeous on consoles too, but it’s the freedom and gameplay that we love. Nanosuit’s power is a lot of fun and hunting enemies in this New York is great. A solid multiplayer is the classic cherry on top of the cake.

Toki Tori 2+ is an enjoyable game both visually and in terms of actual gameplay. The simple basics let the player always feel in control without making his quest too easy.

A rough, heavy, but beautiful story, with deep characters, a wonderful handmade graphics and an original lore. But it's not a game for everyone, with it's slow pace and tons of texts to read.

Quotation forthcoming.

Q.U.B.E. 2 is a pretty solid puzzle game with a better graphics than the previous chapter. The story is not very original and there are no complimentary characters, probably due to the limited budget. Even given this, if you like this kind of game you should keep an eye on it.

Bungie's new IP isn't a revolution but is able to create a genre of its own. It has a solid and accessible RPG system, fast and addictive gunplay, and its overall presentation is outstanding. It's not perfect, though, and we hope Bungie will be able to solve some issues in the coming months.

Knytt Underground isn’t a game for everyone. It is rich and fascinating in its own way, but the convoluted plot and the simple mechanics will surely discourage those players looking for a more canonical experience.

WWE 2K19 is one of the best wrestling games of all time, just because it doesn’t have all the problems suffered by the last chapters of the series. With a renewed Career, hundreds of wrestlers and an enjoyable gameplay, the game is a must for every WWE and wrestling fan.

Galacide comes from an interesting idea but it’s penalized by the lack of a strong identity and by an insufficient balance between the two genres that it wants to join.

The first Disgaea game is back in a great HD remake. All assets are rebuilt from zero and the game now features all the additions of the Nintendo DS and PSP versions. If you never played the first chapter of this funny jRPG series, this is the perfect chance to remedy, and it comes in a retail version too.

Codemasters has succeeded in the difficult task to bring back to life a famous IP, looking forward to a multiplatform future, which has just started. If you are among those people from the 'old school', feel free to add half point to the final mark. If you aren't, and are looking for an easy game, just do the opposite and look for another game.

We Were Here Forever is a crazy co-op game that every lover of the genre might adore. However, the game suffers from some imbalances…

Of course there's always room for improvement, but Milestone worked hard and every core element of the MotoGP series looks and feels better than ever, depicting the best installment to date.

Action + RPG + musou... in one word: fun! One of the most entertaining Omega Force games and also one of the best Dragon Quest spin-offs.

Action, platforming and RPG elements melt in this engaging souls-like Metroidvania enriched by a gorgeous pixel-art. You'd better keep it on your radar.

Quotation forthcoming.

Trials of Mana was a very, very good JRPG... 25 years ago. This remake retains some enjoyable features of the original but fails to jump on the new century wagon.

Taking plenty of inspiration from the likes of Terraria and Spelunky, SteamWorld Dig is nonetheless an enjoyable and very fun indie game, for those who never get tired of digging up the mysteries of the underground.

Dancing All Night is a decent story-driven rhythm game that every Persona fan should play.

Despite some minor issues, Apotheon is a good bidimensional platform with small metroidvania elements, capable of capturing the player in an incredible, stylish world.

Dishonored Definitive Edition is the perfect example of how much the current generation is milking the market. The technical jump isn't that great, and the PC version is both visually better and cheaper than this one. Just buy that, and enjoy a still awesome experience.

Polaris Sector is a little gem of a 4x game. Its gameplay is straightforward yet very deep and full of interesting decisions; its few flaws are all in the user interface design, which has an amateurish overall look and feel. If only fair priced it could have been an instant classic.
