Mario Party 9 is the series' best episode after the fourth. The new elements introduced, like the players moving all together, are not completely convincing, but the formula designed hanging around funny minigames and 3 pals around still works.

All in all, a great way to greet a great console.

In short, it will not be Sniper Elite 3 Ultimate Edition on Nintendo Switch that will make you fall in love with the Rebellion saga.

Despite some annoying bugs, Operation Arrowhead shows a few interesting improvement in the ARMA II formula. And is still the more realistic war simulator available.

If you love the Assassin's Creed universe and you want to know more about the fate of medjay Bayek, this add-on, in fact, proves truly unmissable.

A turn-based puzzle game that will keep you glued to the screen with its six playable characters but will end very soon at because of the only four plans currently available.

If Descenders teases you, don't worry too much about giving it a chance. Maybe on other gaming platforms.

Call of Duty Vanguard is a particular episode, a collage of experiences that do not all have the same inspiration and quality. There is a very effective but not very original PvP, a short and breathless campaign, a Zombie mode that is almost a reward, with the promise of progressively growing. Depending on your needs, then decide whether or not to approach this year's chapter: if you like the cooperative experience against hordes of undead, you will probably just need a little patience.

Despite the obvious uncertainties in the first game sequences, Outriders managed to win us over. What might have seemed a classic shooter in dynamics and uncertain in the story has instead proved to be a shooter with addictive gameplay, and capable of distinguishing itself for the density and richness of content. Unfortunately, the campaign remains subdued on the narrative front, but the gameplay sculpted by People Can Fly has something magnetic.

The Crysis Remastered Trilogy allows you to relive a product that at the time had pioneering traits for the industry and that perhaps for this very reason still had ample room for improvement. While at times returning an impression of a brake on, the story remains enjoyable and the approach chosen allows you to relive an experience updated to the parameters of current consoles.

Pudding Monsters is a highly recommended title, one of those rare gems of mobile gaming that focuses on creativity and immediacy.

Life is Strange 2 finally begins to discover its assets, proving the ability to repeat the success of the first season.

It's an overall well developed experience, and if you like the genre will probably keep you entertained for a while.

Very tempting and cheap, especially considering the variety of selections - with experiences ranging between different genres, even if to dominate can only be platformers and Scrolling fighter - and support for online multiplayer. But be careful, because not everything you remember with the big eyes is actually as sweet as memory suggests.

The release of Pandora's Tower will probably be the last in Nintendo Wii's history. After Xenoblade and The Last Story, the circle is closed, with all the three oriental RPGs out. It may not be equally epic or wonderfully told, but still it's an enjoyable game.

The presence of a huge park of means and instruments, possibly extensible through mod, does nothing more than increase the sense of freedom and fulfillment derived from the achievement of its goals.

The Oath in Felghana comes in Europe 8 years later, with a good porting from PSP that cut only a few unrelevant features. The game is really good old style JRPG.

Quotation forthcoming.

It does not offer new contents, not even borrowing them from Genma Onimusha. Although Warlords has aged well, thanks to its pioneering combat system, we understand that old fans can remain hesitant.

The missing piece of the great mosaic of the Winters family, whose vicissitudes have played a central role in the latest iterations of the series, is a pleasant addition to the now wide offer within Resident Evil Village, albeit not without structural ups and downs or missed opportunities. From a playful point of view, the large section at the Dimitrescu castle is certainly the most effective, thanks to the skilful use of Rose's powers and you find them as the nuclei of the Megamicete, whose removal - combined with the presence of sufficiently dangerous abominations - succeeds to create moments of healthy tension. It is a pity, however, that Le Ombre di Rose has explored a little the idea of the "network of consciences" in favor of the only experience of Ethan's daughter, whose journey in any case deserves to be experienced by all fans of the trend. of the Winters.

Quotation forthcoming.

There's a bunch of new content to keep the fans interested, and the narrative flashbacks are surely interesting, but gameplay-wise there's nothing really new under the sun.

It is hard to think of a product more suitable for experienced R-Type Final 2 r-typers. In slavishly retracing the trail left by the famous Eighties arcade shooter, the revival operation by Granzella Inc. modernizes the playful recipe here and there. of departure, finally returning an experience with a high nostalgic rate, with a lot of difficulty well above the average, just like in the old days. Whether this is the true finale of the series or not, try not to miss the exciting opportunity to take flight among the stars again.

Codemasters racing thrives on lights and shadows. To attract the greatest number of players, GRID Legends seems to have partly lost the common thread that had characterized the very good reboot in 2019.

Life is Strange: Double Exposure is a work that welcomes the most nostalgic players in a vortex of reassuring and melancholic atmospheres, and at the same time tries to shake up the status quo of the saga with ambitious narrative choices. Re-embracing the iconic Max Caulfield represents a pleasant dip into the past, especially because the guys at Deck Nine have managed to respect the traditional elements - narrative and artistic - of the first Life is Strange. But the return of "Super Max" did not entirely convince us, with subplots that were not particularly brilliant and twists that at times seemed exaggerated. Although the gameplay formula is interesting, the game framework then stumbles into some naivety. The best Life is Strange by Deck Nine is still the one that takes place before the storm.

An interesting mix of role-playing and management games.

The PS4 version of Escape Plan solves some problems of the PS Vita counterpart, being definitely a more responsive title, but with the same ups and downs of the portable version.

It's an interesting way to reimagine platforming, but it doesn't have the courage or the lasting appeal of other recent Nintendo's titles. It's still fun, and sometimes engaging, but the slow pace is something you'll surely notice.
