Breach isn't a complete disaster. Despite many flaws and limits, many of them linked to the netcode, it reaches a narrow sufficiency thanks to a good character growth system and a gameplay that does not forget the standards of this genre.

Michael Jackson The Experience is probably the weakest title in the Vita lineup. It appears a desperate effort from Ubisoft to ride the wave of Michael's post mortem popularity, giving players a bad porting of the console version.

FIFA 13 on PsVita is the same as its predecessor too. Nevertheless it is the best portable football simulation ever published. Strongly recommended, but only if you don't have FIFA Football.

Dull, linear, repetitious and microtransaction-oriented.

Except for the possibility of wandering around Westeros and meeting some prominent personalities of the continent, Game of Thrones Kingsroad is a title with mediocre gameplay and a not very virtuous monetization system, which pushes the player to spend more and more in order to advance and obtain advantages that are otherwise inaccessible. Unless you are a die-hard fan of the series, there are very few reasons to even try the production signed by NetMarble, given that the market is full of much more valid alternatives.

Only those who risk taking all the air in the face can play for victory.

A standard action/platform, without any interesting innovation and lacking in appealing design.

Sumioni: Demon Arts is one of those hidden gems of the Playstation Vita that the market analysts radar unfortunately make it increasingly difficult to locate.

Army Corps of Hell is full of intresting ideas. Some issues on the gameplay side and the repetitive structure prevent players from having fun from the beginning to the end.

Dead Island Riptide remains a product of moderate value, repeating in part the success of its predecessor.

Men of War Condemned Heroes tells the story of the penal battalions during World War II. The single player is really difficult, but fun and deep. A good game for all lovers of good strategy!

Raging Blast is too simple to entertain beat'em up lovers, and even if the cell shading is excellent, the game is repetitious and dull.

A challenging action game, that requires an excellent mastery of its simple control scheme. A roguelike experience interesting on the short run, but too tedious and boring to grant a sufficient replay value. The charming cyberpunk style is not enough to overcome these issues.

Repetitive.

This five and a half is especially for you, Metacritic.

The idea of experience blindness is creepy and interesting in equal measure, but this is still halfway between a tech demo and a fully accomplished product.

Tiny Troopers is a strategic shooter that looks similar to the Amiga's classic Cannon Fodder. It's a mobile porting for PC, simply and funny, recommended for casual game lovers and retro gamers.

Few minigames, most of which repetitious and dull, and a coarse style. A good showcasing of touch based control scheme reactivity, but nothing more.

Animal Force presents an interesting basic idea, which unfortunately has not been developed in a concrete way.

Bizarre and difficult to place, Knock Knock is a vague adventure, with an almost intangible and rather monotonous gameplay; however, behind these assumptions you can still find a path that can accompany the player to the discovery of a star, a story to tell and multi-faceted concept.

Certainly not an unmissable experience, but for some it could still be worth the price of the ticket.

To enjoy this game you really have to love Japan culture, and forget the graphics, especially on PS4.

Unlike the first chapter, Lovecraft's Untold Stories 2 does not hit the mark, but in contrast it represents a clear step back in many respects. Its only real strength is represented by the artistic direction, which, abandoning the pixel art of the progenitor, preferred to adopt a cleaner design inspired by comic books. Overall, the title turned out to be somewhat unsatisfactory: once the adventure began, you are immediately catapulted into history without a real guide, while the combat system appears slow and clumsy, also due to woody animations. To this already unfortunate situation must be added some rather unbalanced enemies, numerous bugs that compromise the experience, an isometric view that sometimes makes you turn up your nose and, last but not least, the unexpected removal of the cooperative mode promised to the public during the development. At present, Lovecraft's Untold Stories 2 appears to be far from being able to be a playable experience that can be promoted.

There's a great way to enjoy the video game version of Blood Bowl: buy the second chapter, which sadly surpasses its successor in every possible way. Blood Bowl 3 manages to give some satisfaction in multiplayer mode but in general we are talking about an unstable experience, plagued by significant bugs and equipped with a single player component that we just can't recommend to fans of the series.

Globulos Party has a great number of game modes, but the core gameplay is iterative and not so fun if you play solo.

Due to the IP on which it is based, Mighty Doom could attract loyal fans for some hit and run sessions, even capable of genuinely entertaining. As sometimes happens in the mobile dimension, however, at a certain point in the Slayer's death campaign, production limits also begin to emerge, linked to the low drop rate of equipment and excessive randomness in the generation of perks, which we remember to be very important for continuing the journey.

Theseus, more than a mediocre work, is a wasted opportunity.

MeiQ: Labyrinth of Death is evidence that Compile Heart and Idea Factory can make mistakes too. In recent years, the two Japanese companies produced a long series of little titles, innovative and exquisitely witty. The new product has only touched the target, showing many flaws in the most important aspects of the structure and gameplay.

The new FunLabs title is striking above all for its ambition.

Jump Force is an ambitious fighting game that stumbles several times over itself, in an attempt to overcome its predecessors and to chase other famous exponents of the genre.

Disciples 3 is an artistically impressive title that completely disappoints the players since boredom and silliness of the AI overcome anything good that anyone could master during the game.

Velvet Assassin could have been a better game. It has a solid approach to the genre, but a limping AI and frustrating shooter sessions reveal the limited experience of the developer team. You can try it if you're a great stealth fan.

Quotation forthcoming.

Table Mini Golf could have been a good title if only it had not been forced in "size" by the philosophy of the AR Suit series.

The Adventures of Tintin – The secret of the Unicorn is an average title, with a quite entertaining gameplay but some undeniable flaws, from its short main story to the excessive easiness. Still it's recommendable, providing a funny experience.

Lethal VR is an intense and funny first person shooter, in which the extremely simple gameplay is magnified by virtual reality.

Quotation forthcoming.

It feels more like a new gameplay mode than a true expansion to the single player campaign. Still, it delivers some good fun, but it remains way too expensive for what it offers.

Dangerous Golf is able to entertain for a determined amount of time, that starts when we understand how the sequence of shots work, and ends when we realize that levels are way too similar to each other, and scores are totally random. During these few hours, Dangerous Golf tries to impress and involve the player with explosions and destruction, but it never totally convinces.

Quotation forthcoming.

It's a wasted chance, and that's a real shame. The gameplay can't keep up with the good premises, and the game really looses much of its appeal in a matter of minutes.

The concept is interesting, albeit not original, but the lack of contents and the unbalanced gameplay will make the experience grow old really quickly.

What is certain is that the charm of the first chapter has not been replicated as we would have hoped: net of its obvious flaws, this second episode still has its own gritty b-movie personality, full of potential, unfortunately, strongly unexpressed.

After the disastrous Super Neptunia RPG packaged in 2019 by Artisan Studios, we harbored the sincere fear of finding another title that is poor in every respect in our hands. The Japanese developer Compile Heart has instead taken over the reins of its flagship franchise, and although Neptunia Virtual Stars lends its side to several critical issues, the result is all in all enjoyable. The gameplay and the balance of the difficulty should be revised, but overall the spin-off manages to effectively carry out its duty, which is to entertain historical fans of the saw and fans of virtual YouTubers.

This disappointing second DLC confirms the trend, that of utter indolence from the developers. There's not much new, save a couple of weapons and a new main character, and no particular reasons whatsoever to bother with this DLC unless you're a total fan of the original game.

Moving the camera behind the player's shoulders isn't nearly enough to offer a new experience, especially when you do so without rebalancing the whole game.

The technical sector is in fact immature, with consequences that strongly influence the use of the adventure.

The resurrection of a saga that already failed to win the hearts of players twenty years ago turns out to be a bit empty, like the coffin that Grave carries on his shoulders: the developers of Iggymob offer an extremely simple experience through a shooter third-person shooter with basic mechanics, fixated on repeating shooting to mow down wave after wave of helpless enemies. The long and always identical corridors that form the backdrop to the carnage of the resurrected gunslinger frame an all too meager playful recipe, weakened by a spartan technical realization and by a basic repetitiveness that is revealed within a few hours. The artistic direction of Yasuhiro Nightow is evident in a character design very close to the lines admired in Trigun, but it is not enough to elevate what remains an unambitious product.

A forgettable experience. It wants to mimic Papo & Yo and Journey, but ends up being way less than the sum of its parts.

A concentrate of madness, profanity, small strokes of genius and frantic fun, all packaged with a unique style that is surprisingly effective.

Kung Fu Impact, despite some engine problems, is really funny. The experience, thanks to a lot of funny moves and a comic-like storytelling, can truly involve the player.

Tennis World Tour 2 is a great new beginning, an unexpected glimmer of hope for the future of a sport for too long away from the limelight of the videogame market.

Ultimately, Bloodshore is a title capable of offering some gasp of nostalgia to fans of the old FMV productions, with a proposal that is anything but memorable.

Eurocom fails even on the snow.

Hunting Grounds is, in short, a poorly finished product, small on the interface and shaky in the gameplay department. Recommended only for those with a close-knit team, for those who do not want to surrender to the curse of the asymmetric multiplayer, or to diehard fans of the film saga; and even in that case the suggestion remains to wait for an advantageous offer.

Can Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 be considered an expansion sold at full price? In part yes, and this element inevitably affects the vote, like the questionable single campaign. At the same time, however, it is impossible to pretend nothing has happened: the multiplayer component is the most fun to play in recent years and includes a pack of maps much loved by fans. Unless you buy COD just for the campaign and are willing to turn a blind eye to the lack of major innovations compared to last year, it is really difficult for you to be disappointed by the classic multiplayer of this chapter.

Some problems with AR and an inconsistent gameplay make Table Top Tanks a game to avoid.

It lacks new ideas in track design, and the physics aren't believable at all. It's a budget alternative to Mario Kart, that's for sure, but with a lower price comes also a disappointing experience.

Ultimately Breakpoint is a title capable of guaranteeing Wildlands fans a more than ample dose of ballistic fun, although the overall production balance does not show the clear step forward that could be expected.

Redfall would have needed a more extensive development cycle, and a pinch of courage in building the structure. It is an imperfect product, but one that knows how to entertain when one finds oneself burying vampires in the company of friends, also given the presence of protagonists with unique abilities and an arsenal equipped with various types of death tools. For these reasons, Game Pass subscribers looking for a few hours of co-op leisure could give it a chance, but keeping one thing in mind: we are not at all facing the next evolutionary step of Arkane-branded productions.

Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of Lounge Lizard Reloaded is pervaded by a sense of homesick and passion for the game that we struggle to find in many recent adventure games.

Kinect Star Wars is one of the poorest games for the Microsoft motion sensor. Its lack of precision ruins all good gameplay ideas and gets the player consistently frustrated.

Quotation forthcoming.

Gods vs Humans is not necessarily bad. It has some good ideas, and the gameplay is quite addictive for the first hour. Later on, it gets boring, but it's more a problem of the genre than a problem of the game. It would be even worh a try, if it wasn't for it's price tag: 1500 Wii Points is absolutely too much.

A classic Hack'n'Slash, with an interesting control scheme suitable for some solid co-op entertainment. Obviously, the progression is still repetitious and frustrating in the long term.

Quotation forthcoming.

Star Wars Episode I: Jedi Power Battles is a good remaster of a title that has some structural flaws, some evident at the time of its release and others that have emerged over time. There is no point in hiding the problems: the camera management is antiquated, the controls far from the modern standard, the uncertainties in the registration of inputs and in the AI ​​of the enemies are difficult to forgive (also because they were easily resolvable, with a fine work on the game code). On the other hand, however, we have a work of preservation of a much-loved classic in the world of Star Wars, which puts on the table a classic but modernized aesthetic, renewed textures, a nostalgic soundtrack and atmospheres that will surely thrill George Lucas fans. The replayability is high, while the local multiplayer and the additional modes (primarily the one-on-one one) add depth to the game. Recommended, but only for Star Wars fans!

Ubisoft fails to deliver a solid alternative option to GTA.

Beyond defects Anna is a valuable work of art that deserves to be played from start to finish.

Shinobido 2 is, at the end, a good stelth game. Playing it, however, gives you the sensation that the dev team could reach far better distances in terms of game design.

This is, by all means, an Xbox360 game. And it could have been good, if the control scheme wasn't messed up and the scene so full and hard to read.

The team has made very little progress in those aspects that could have turned the title into a reference product for the cooperative shooter.

Sports Bar VR needs a couple of important patches and some polishing here and there, but what it already offers is unique; even unforgettable, if you are lucky enough to find the right company in its virtual environment.

Ds version of Ghostbusters does not entertain like the home console versions.

Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage 2 is a mediocre game, recommended only to the faithful of the comic.

Steel Storm is a nice scrolling shooter, with a few innovative features (as the first person view you can activate at will). Too bad it delivers a quite short experience.

The ideas were interesting, but gameplay and graphics wise, you'll find much better tower defense experiences out there.

You can see the dev's passion for arcade games of old, but that isn't enough to craft a compelling game.

Touhou Genso Rondo : Bullet Ballet is a weak title in every respect, especially from the point of view of content. The story mode is not only suffering from enormous narrative flaws, but it can be completed in less than four hours, and even one of the few playable characters is only available via DLC.

An indie fruit of a passion but still an immature work.

The famous "bla bla bla" of Drac, so dear to the fans of the film, is in danger of turning into a "bleah bleah bleah".

Between the historical limitations linked to the development period and the very difficult operation of adaptation to console peripherals, Praetorians HD implicitly suggests us to opt for the PC version.

From the creators of Mulaka we would have sincerely expected more, and yet what the Mexican studio lands with Aztech Forgotten Gods is a missed worthy spiritual successor: a sequel that could have dragged all the charm of Aztec retrofuturism at hypersonic speeds, but which limits itself to re-proposing a decidedly outdated type of game design. Although the intention to build such a peculiar movement system is good, every possible form of playful enthusiasm is dampened in the bud by multiple ripples of a technical nature, as well as by a bite-free progression.

Quotation forthcoming.

Fable Heroes has a little of Fable, a family game that will not encounter the favores of the fans.

Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games Sochi 2014 is very similar to its predecessors, managing to entertain and persuade only party games enthusiasts.

There's that fetish element that seems like a luring detail, shining on the box to raise debate and stir appetites. If you look deep enough, though, you'll find a dungeon crawler worthy of some of your time and attention.

Yar's Revenge has nothing that doesn't work. It's simply a videogame that offers too little.

Compared to the disastrous MX vs ATV: All Out, Rainbow Studios has taken not one but two steps forward. MX vs ATV Legends is surprisingly fun and has a good amount of content. At present, however, it needs a substantial finishing work. ATVs are capable of giving great satisfaction, while AI steals more than a laugh with its surreal performances. The Rainbow Studios game is plagued by bugs and various problems but has big room for improvement: if the development team manages to fix all the flaws in the coming months, MX vs ATV Legends could become a good title.

This second and final act shows way less care for details if compared to its predecessor, and it's a true shame.

The repetitiveness of the quests, the terrible management of the camera and the excessive imbalance of the tenzoni are sins that we can hardly forgive.

Short but intense, it's a perfect product for psychological horror fans, but everyone else might find it a little too light on the gameplay side.

It seems like an episodic game, but it isn't. Everything, from gameplay to narrative, feels like setting ground for something to come. Let's hope it does.

Despite a rather slow start and a "Dark Souls-like" combat system that also disappoints on the distance, the post-apocalyptic journey of Black Forest Games, at the crossroads between the action-adventure and the management, demonstrates qualities that could be tempting to lovers of the tough and uncompromising challenge.

It's a lame conversion from the iPad version, so you'd better stick with the mobile one.

The Drowning amazes users for a few minutes, making them breathe a catching atmosphere, crafted and enhanced by first class graphics.
