Some especially beautifully designed environments and epic boss battles are not enough to overcome the repetitiveness of its level design and the especially frustrating hordes of minions which attacks from 360 degrees, while ignoring physical walls.

An overall great sequel to the original, color-splashing action shooter. Minor improvements to the Hero mode might not be enough for veteran players, but with the multiplayer component of the game being better than ever, Splatoon 2 can easily guarantee hours and hours of co-op paintball action.

This remastered edition of FFXII is recommended mostly to those who liked and enjoyed the original edition of the game since the upgrades (visual and otherwise) are superb and completely justify the return to the world of Ivalice.

Even though we loved the original game, this dlc is bland compared to the original levels and way too short to justify even a fraction of its price tag.

Nex Machina is the quintessential top-down arcade shooter. It may seem simplistic on paper, but on screen is nothing less than a punishing, hectic and utterly enjoyable experience that will leave you exhausted even only after an hour of play.

The video game monster of Dr. Frankenstein, Valkyria Revolution is a huge pile of dozens of mismatched, poorly designed systems, bland presentation and poor design choices all over the board. It bears no similarities to its wonderful predecessors apart from an interesting plot, which is unfortunately torn apart by the thousands of cutscenes and loading screens.

After the success of DiRt Rally, Codemasters is back with a vengeance. DiRT 4 is a testament to everything the company has learned over the years, the best DiRT game to date and one of the best racers of all time.

This collection of updated WipEout games is really proof of how these great games have withstood the test of time. Packed with content and with superb technology to back it up, Omega Collection is a must-have for fans of Sony’s futuristic racing franchise.

The eccentric aesthetic of Tokyo 42 is its biggest selling point. It’s a joy to run around the skyscrapers and having some fun shootouts. It’s a pity that the camera proves to be our biggest enemy alongside the issue of repetition.

Simply put this is a superb remake of three of the most beloved platformers of the 90s and of the PlayStation One era. Vicarious Visions treated the original games with respect and offered a collection that will skyrocket your nostalgia.

In contrast to MXGP3, with MotoGP 17 Milestone created a complete racer with superb mechanics and a fantastic riding model that is as close to reality as a videogame can get.

Beauty only is not enough. Everspace delivers a beautiful universe to explore, along with a well written story, but almost everything else in the game is empty and repetitive.

A quite decent roguelike which, with the exception of some unfair difficulty spikes, delivers in non-stop action, well-crafted gameplay and variety in its randomized levels. The mix of sci-fi and old-school pirate theme is also a plus.

It seems that Milestone was not quite sure where to go with this one. MXGP3 can be a very difficult sim racer totally unsuitable for casual gamers, or a bland arcade racer when you turn on the driving assists. And none of these two faces of the game really works.

Perception fails in two very crucial areas, story and gameplay. It was supposed to put us in the unique role of a blind person, yet it fails to convince us at that. For one the use of echolocation more or less works so much better than a flashlight. As far as the story goes, Cassie here and there shouts “What am I doing here?” and we couldn’t agree more with this sentiment.

Although Get Even has a lot of pieces missing to be called a great game, it surely is one that worth the attention of players who like linear psychological horror games. It might not be the best in the genre, but it is clearly a great first try from Farm 51.

Our experience with Regalia: Of Men and Monarchs was similar to the first reading of an obscure fairy tale. At first we were not sure where the writer was trying to go, but several hours later we found a beautiful and charming world to explore.

By offering rich content, a great multiplayer experience and some of the most beautiful graphics we've seen in a 3D fighter, Tekken 7 is indeed the king of the Iron Fist Tournament.

Unless you have a group of hardcore Star Trek fans ready to loose their inhibitions and go into live roleplaying, Star Trek Bridge Crew has little to offer with its simplistic gameplay, dated visuals and low quantity, quality and variety of missions.

DOW 3 is trying very hard to satisfy many target groups -RTS players, online competitors, mobs fans- but in the end it fails to deliver something memorable.

The 8 long years it took to reach the end of this dreamy adventure seem unimportant now, gazing back to this intriguing and unique masterpiece of the two man team of Cockroach Inc. It is simply a must for all adventure gamers.

It would have been better for Samurai Warriors Spirit of Sanada if it was released as an additional content for a recent Warriors games than as a stand alone title. As it is, it does not deliver anything new and it looks more of a rehash of elements from previous games.

The remastered maps look great and really fit with the Black Ops III gameplay, but that doesn’t fully justify the price tag Activision is asking for this pack.

Final Fantasy XIV Stormblood is a great successor to Heavensward, comes with an engaging story, well-developed characters, and gameplay changes that will keep you occupied in the world of Eorzea for many, many hours.

Packed with content and a superb story mode, Injustice 2 is one of the best 2D fighting games we have ever played. The microtransactions are there and they are awful as always, but they are nothing more than a smudge on a extremely beautiful face!

The Surge is a decent step forward compared to Lords of the Fallen, that manages to avoid the copycat characterization that the latter had. The modern factory setting may be somewhat drab and the difficulty needs to be more balanced, but nevertheless combat is hugely improved and the dismemberment mechanic manages to provide a very welcomed personality to the game.

Even though it has been more than a decade since we first saw LocoRoco on the PSP, this gem retains all of its shine and charm.

Nba Playgrounds tries to revitalize the arcade basketball genre and brings many interesting and fresh gameplay ideas to the table, but fails to strike the balance between the conflicting gameplay mechanics. It still misses many key online features (like inviting a friend to play against) and the UI is unintuitive, but on the bright side Saber shows eagerness to rectify the wrongs.
