Especially on console it still lacks some important social features, but this expansion is a step in the right direction. It's mostly PVP oriented though, so consider this before buying.

A pleasant and light-hearted game, which should be taken for what it wants to be: a love letter to younger DC fans, also capable of winking at the more mature ones. From the gameplay point of view, we are faced with a product without too many ambitions, with recycled assets and a very soft challenge curve, yet the whole adventure flows with ease. Even net of the structural repetitiveness, Cosmic Chaos remains an ideal game for novice users, who will be able to enjoy a light and genuine experience with their beloved superheroes.

Terraria's debut on Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 follows the extreme fidelity to the concept of the PC version published two years ago.

At the time of landing on the planet Star Ocean: The Divine Force we had many reservations, mostly due to the disappointment reserved for us by the previous episode. Putting aside the technical sector, which appears unfortunately dated even by the standards of the last generation, the new game packaged by the tri-Ace guys has progressively won our sympathy with an engaging story and suitably rejuvenated gameplay. Not everything convinced us fully, but overall Star Ocean: The Divine Force can be seen as a good starting point for a series that we believed was now doomed, and which on the contrary has strongly shown that it still has something to say.

Prequel to Road 96 and - at the same time - spiritual successor to Lost in Harmony, the new DigixArt title contains a multifaceted experience, in the name of hybrid gameplay and a story yet to be written. The system of moral choices and the racing phases inherited from the 2016 title manage to give shape to an engaging story and to transmit important messages on sensitive issues. On the other hand, it is clear how the desire to create a work of limited size has sometimes made the narration too frenetic and the races on the track too hasty. In short, we would have liked to see something more, but net of this Road 96: Mile 0 is confirmed as a good prequel, appreciable both by those who have played its sequel and by newcomers.

Dispatch is excellent entertainment: it captivates you from the first frame and doesn't let go until the final credits. The characterizations are stellar, the direction is meticulous, and the visuals are simply captivating. The problem is that, gameplay-wise, it's only a bare bones game, where the gameplay is completely separated from the narrative. Those looking for a game to experience rather than play will love it; those looking for a game where your choices have real weight will risk bitter disappointment. What's certain is that works like this force us, once again, to question what a video game is. Is a great story enough to make you forget you're holding a controller?

Waiting for extra contents and a multiplayer mode, Train Fever looks clearly incomplete. For train lovers, thought, it can be considered an impressive start.

All Star Racing does not offer anything more than Mario Kart. Still, is entertaining and perfect for the portable device, and the great number of characters, circuits and game modes make it a decent "clone".

Quotation forthcoming.

A nice start for Sony Motion controller. Move is precise and accurate, and some of the sports in the package are seruoisly entertaining. Too bad that only 6 sports have been included in the blue ray.

Call of Duty: Black Ops for Nintendo Wii retains its HD counterparts' qualities and demerits. The gameplay is not something particularly elaborated, as the production's best values reside in the entertaining direction, but this element is partially hampered by Wii's lack of power. The multiplayer instead is quite good, and rewarding for those who prefer this type of experience; others, who focus on single player, should be better off looking somewhere else but, luckily enough, not so far.

Ultimately, the journey spiritual accomplished by ONINAKI may not be as rich and suggestive as that offered by I am Setsuna, but it will still be able to offer you equally valid insights.

Retro/Grade is an atypical and fun rhythm game. Unfortunately, the limited number of sound tracks does not allow it to reach more positive judgement.

And interesting puzzle platform, despite the low difficulty level and a general lack of content. The cooperative mode really shines, offering an entirely new experience.

Cars 2 is a simple but funny arcade racing, full of game modes and blessed by an interesting track design.

It owes much to Monster Hunter, but it still has its own way of delivering interesting content. Also, the lasting appeal is fair, if you can accept some repetitive mission.

In short, even after seven years, Rebellion hits the target again.

A perfect porting of the console version. Unfortunately, the absence of online multiplayer option and a poor single player affect the game.

Terra Noctis is classic platform which score its points in a curios graphical approach which is a mix of pixelart and retro. There is no innovation, but Allen is a good character who may hit your chords. A lot of variety is guaranteed by many levels and different gadgets.

Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath HD is a game that feels the weight of years. Far from being unplayable or not attractive, you can not cross over the imperfections of the control system, on a plot that is not too daring and partly on a too-flat concept level design.

Ultimately, Battlestar Galactica: Scattered Hopes succeeds because it grasps precisely which aspect of the series truly deserved to be adapted into a game: the arduous struggle of holding together a community in flight. The fleet management system works precisely because it forces you to live with the consequences of what you leave behind. Its limitations become apparent when crises and points of interest lose their element of surprise, when factions exert less influence than promised, and when the heroes remain more functional than memorable. However, the game is bolstered by a generous mechanical framework: diverse Gunstars, randomized abilities, varied enemies, distinct builds, a Compendium, and permanent bonuses lend real substance to its replayability—even when the narrative component begins to tread along paths that have become all too familiar. It is neither the most spectacular adaptation of Battlestar Galactica, nor the most consistent: when it focuses on risk, timing, and compromise, Scattered Hopes can be truly compelling; yet, when it relies too heavily on the repetition of its scenarios, it remains a solid, intelligent space roguelite—albeit one that is less surprising than it could have been.

Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba - The Hinokami Chronicles 2 is an extremely conservative sequel, and as a result, it has inherited both its predecessor's greatest strengths and some of its major shortcomings. Indeed, despite the fun ideas CyberConnect2 has come up with to slightly diversify the exploration phases, the free-roaming sequences offered by the Story Mode still seem dull and boring. Already having a solid and highly technical combat system at its disposal, especially for an arena fighter, the Fukuoka studio has therefore focused on the content component, finally equipping the product with a respectable roster and engaging modes that enrich the offering. Among the many mediocre tie-ins that have flooded the market in recent weeks, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba - The Hinokami Chronicles 2 is ultimately a flawed gem that any fan of the genre and the license should absolutely give a try.

Revenge of the Titans is one of the most complex Tower Defense in recent years, hidden under a dated but still enjoyable technical plant. Thanks to its freedom of action and deep gameplay this is a must-have for the fans.

The whole contest is greatly recreated, but the puzzles and riddles are not that smart.

THQ wrestling series is a little bit tired. This new chapter does not add any interesting feature to the standard formula.

It's a good alternative to BlazBlue and Guilty Gear, bestowed with solid mechanics and fast rhythm.

It's really short, just a couple of hours of entertainment, but at the same time the gameplay is original and interesting.

Quotation forthcoming.
