Even though it looks more beautiful and crisp on this generation of consoles, Resident Evil 6 continues to be a game with a lack of identity and many, many problems.

One of the best platformers of this generation is overhauled by a completely new area and the especially useful ability of dash. Veterans of Ori may wish to return in its beautiful world to enjoy its new difficulty settings, along with the new level. Anyone else who skipped it the first time it came out should seriously reconsider giving it a second chance.

Quantum Break is not an Ocean. It’s a Lake. A Lake of experimentations, of narrative overlaps and tons of well crafted gameplay and stunning visual-technological achievements. And once again, through its multilayered story, the interaction between the live drama and the actual gameplay and the artistic script, Quantum Break is not a game for the throng. It’s a game for the ones that feel special enough to fully embrace it.

Offering a stylistically refreshing approach to a post nuclear world, Shardlight is a pixelated journey through the human darkness.

The new Ratchet is a successful and inspired fusion of all the great ideas Insomniac has put to the series. It is well-written, perfectly played, ravishingly enjoyed and will be full-heartedly embraced by all the gamers who want to play with a smile on their faces.

The Witch and The Hundred Knight Revival Edition offers a good cast of characters and a beautiful artwork, but it has a shallow combat system and lots of other issues that won't allow it to offer something more than a few hours of mediocre dungeon crawling.

LKA.it tackles a very serious matter with professionalism. Its story shows the atrocities that happened in many asylums in all its awful “glory”. It’s too bad that bad acting and pacing problems drags the experience down, not to mention the high asking price.

XCOM 2 succeeded in improving the features that made XCOM: EU the great game it is. The revamped and refurbished visuals, class balance, map design, base management and meta-game could have made this game one of the best sequels in gaming history. However the game breaking bugs and glitches plus the terrible performance plague the game and condemn it to mediocrity.

The most essential feature in this kind of games is the creation of a solid cornerstone on which the game will grow and prosper in the coming months (or years maybe). Somehow The Division manages to create this cornerstone though it leaves a lot to be desired. On the other hand, the developers need to decide what to do with Dark Zone because clearly they have not until now. In the positive’s area the fact that even gamers with no MMO experience at all can enjoy most of the game (essentially with some company).

While it is hard to ignore the fact that it reboots the series and throws the other games to the dustbin, Deponia Doomsday on its own retains much of the charm of the series, with a stellar cast and a wackier than ever storyline.

Bravely Second End Layer is a decent game with beautiful visuals and a solid combat system, although as a direct sequel it fails to deliver a decent story and something new as an experience for those who played the first game.

The improvements and the conclusion of the White March expansion are so impressive that the realization we have to wait and pray for PoE2 is depressing.

While it doesn’t quite stick the landing, loosing momentum in the last hour of the story, Oxenfree is a masterpiece in interactive storytelling, offering a unique, smooth interaction between characters that is extremely rare in the medium.

Rich with clever puzzles and interesting mechanisms, Klaus has enough charm to stand out from the ocean of 2D indies.

Twilight Princess remains an absolutely brilliant jewel in the crown of the Gaming Industry. Almost perfect even though so many years have passed.

It’s one of those games that truly falls into two extremes of the quality spectrum. On one hand it introduces a truly fresh time manipulation mechanic which can lead to some intense and utterly satisfying action scenes, no small feat for a game of the FPS genre. On the other hand it offers limited content and an overall feeling that the release version of Superhot is still in its beta phase.

Far Cry Primal is exclusively a prehistoric theme park. It isn’t ashamed to admit and declare that there isn’t something even remotely reminiscent of a story in the game. But all else is nicely implemented in-game and the theme is so intriguing that, really, there is no need for something else.

Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth is a great JRPG with a nice plot, an enjoyable, old school turn-based battle system, beautiful art direction and a design that grants you the opportunity to catch many Digimons.

The well written and quite interesting story never really takes off and on top of that we get a poor level design with intense "trial and error". The third part of the "Chronicles" trilogy hasn't done anything to escape the grim fate of its predecessors.

It’s not a bad game, though it’s not good either. It stands in the absolute point of mediocrity; a platform game that you’ll finish in less than 2 hours and then you’ll just move to the next one without giving it any more thought.

Jonathan Blow returns after eight years to deliver us another masterpiece. On the surface, The Witness is a demanding but fair puzzle game with great longevity and beautiful scenery. Look a bit deeper though and you’ll find an almost subliminal philosophical aspect in a way that only the medium of games could deliver.

Gravity Rush might not be perfect, but it’s still a beautiful game full of enjoyment that had to fight it’s way up to the big league. The remastered edition doesn’t justify the purchase for someone who already played it on the PS Vita, but it surely is a treat for the eyes.

The gaming’s equivalent of Russell-Einstein anti-war manifesto.

Beware when entering the Darkest Dungeon. Its great aesthetic as well as its deep, challenging yet rewarding gameplay will very easily make you spend countless hours without even realizing the passing of time. Red Hook unquestionably managed to develop one of the early contenders for top gaming lists of the year.

Street Fighter V delivers the first hit against the player by surprising him with the best fighting system in the series. The distillation of all the titles so far, maturing for over 25 years, manages to raise the boundaries of the franchise to new heights and awaits the players to push it even further. Let the lack of content be for now. Focus on the excellent gameplay and rest assured that the game will compensate for it in the future.

Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 is probably the best addition to the "Storm" series, with a great roster of new and old characters combined with fights that use three different fighting styles and beautiful anime visuals.

No one can deny that Firewatch is full of promise. The problem is that it rarely fulfills it.

It’s true that there is a lot of room for improvement, especially on the puzzle department. Nevertheless, Coldwood Interactive made a major comeback with Unravel, a game which has some of the finest visuals we‘ve seen and an outright adorable main character which is a joy to handle.
