An enjoyable, solid and extremely accessible racing game.

A "classic" Assassin's Creed in all the forms of this definition (good and bad) - technically solid, with a great story and a gorgeous background. The best AC seen so far, for sure.

NBA Live 16 is a conflicting game: it desperately wants to be a simulation, but in the end it's almost too easy for the player. It's a little bit better than the previous installments, but it desperately needs a more clear direction for the future.

So far, Superchargers is the best Skylanders we've ever played. Despite a relatively dull story and a multiplayer mode that needs some refinements, there is a ton of content that will keep you and your children busy for quite a long time, and the addition of the vehicles spices things up. A lot. Fortunately, it's also the first time that you'll be able to fully appreciate the game without having to double mortgage your house.

This is the Destiny the world deserves. The Taken King offers a lot of new content, but most of all it gives the players a complete (and much needed) revamp of the gameplay and the leveling system.

This game offers more quantity than quality: a lot of things to do and to unlock, but the combat system and the graphics are definitely second-rate.

Quotation forthcoming.

NBA 2K16 is, simply put, the best basketball game of the year. Spike Lee aside, the game is simply huge, full of new features and incredibly fun to play.

Disney Infinity 3.0 is a lovely step forward for the series. The Star Wars brand is obviously the most captivating element in the game, but there are a lot of nice and important improvements, all over the place.

Let's make it short: Extreme Exorcism is the perfect filler between AAAs, especially when you play the Challenge mode.

Animal Crossing has always been a peculiar experience. This spin-off, however, with its boring and repetitive gameplay, can't manage to catch the interest of the player.

This new installment of the FIFA series is excellent, and not just because it marks the debut of the female players. The gameplay feels even greater than last year's chapter, thanks to notable improvements to the AI. And the Draft Mode for FUT is simply top notch.

The second installment of Cyanide's Blood Bowl may be more stingy in terms of races and general offer when compared to the latest edition of the first chapter, but is still excellent in summarizing the rules of the original Games Works board game, proposing them with much more clarity.

Broken Sword 5: The Serpent's Curse is an intriguing proposal for the fans of the adventure genre. The price is right, and the game itself is pretty good.

The new Forza Motorsport is a magnificent, huge, beautiful and incredibly fun title. Despite some minor problems with the AI and the netcode for the multiplayer, this is hands-down the best Forza ever, in terms of content, gameplay and graphics. If you love racing games and don't own an Xbox One, FM6 could be the best reason to buy one.

This strategy title from Koei Tecmo brings us in the Sengoku era, and offers endless gameplay possibilities. It's a fact, anyway, that such a game is most likely to be appreciated by people who love Japan and that particular era.

This new DLC for Company of Heroes 2 introduces a new faction that brings some fresh air in the multiplayer arena. At the same time, only the hardcore fans of the game will accept the lack of a single player campaign.

A truly delightful title, stuffed with a lot of fan service, that we recommend to everyone that loves a nice and original rhythm game.

Risen 3: Titan Lords Enhanced Edition is an outdated game, with tons of problems, a flawed combat system and some inexplicable game design choices. The atrocious porting for PS4 is the (bad) icing on the cake.

Mad Max and the Wastelands would have deserved a bolder characterization. Nonetheless, this is a good open world title, beautiful to see and fun to play. The gameplay draws from different genres, and despite the fact that it doesn't offer anything truly original, the overall result is a solid and fun experience.

Onechanbara Z2: Chaos is the most comprehensive and polished episode of the entire (and rather puckish) franchise. Unfortunately, that doesn't mean that it's something we can recommend, unless you find it on sale.

Pirate Warriors 3 is the best chapter in the One Piece series, technically more than decent and with a huge roster of characters, bound to keep you busy (and happy) for a while.

Super Mario Maker isn't just a powerful level editor, but a sincere, warm and passionate tribute to the most popular Nintendo character. The sixty+ levels created by Nintendo could easily justify the purchase, but the possibilities are really endless. A must have.

The new production from Media Molecule is full of love, devotion and talent. The English software house took the best of the PS Vita version and created a new, fresh and extremely funny experience. Why should you pass over such a gem?

Final Fantasy Type-0 HD, the biggest and most ambitious work from Hajime Tabata (the man behind the anticipated Final Fantasy XV), is a game that constantly struggles between genius and mediocrity, and the PC porting does not help, on way or the other. Few technical improvements, and very few new features.

The worst you can do when talking about Satellite Reign is to measure its value with the original Syndicate. That said, 5 Lives created an intriguing and strong RTS, with some unique features and some great homages to the original by Bullfrog.

The new offering from Digital Eclipse is a nice really collection. It will probably be more appreciated by older and nostalgic gamers, but we must recommend it to the younger ones as well, because it represents an important piece of videogame history.

Lara Croft Go is a nice surprise: the turn-based gameplay works well even for an hardcore adventurer like Lara, and the puzzles are really good. The learning curve is excellent, and there are no dull moments. The in-app purchases are not annoying, which is definitely a plus.

Lost Dimension is a visual novel disguised as a tactical RPG. It's a pretty unique and original title, unfortunately troubled by very low production values. Keep in mind that the PS Vita version is a little bit better than the PS3 one.

Resident Evil Revelations 2 was a decent game when it first come out, and this porting for PS Vita is well done, even if it doesn't add anything truly remarkable. Considering the shortage of games for the Sony portable console, it might be worth a try.

Devil’s Third is a real disappointment: a game that shows a lack of ideas, and a more than mediocre production. The multiplayer might become slightly interesting in the future, but for now it's a title that you can easily forget about.

Gears of War Ultimate Edition is a good opportunity to play one of the milestones of the TPS genre: Marcus Fenix's all gussied up (new textures, 1080p, 60 fps), the locusts are always eager to be slaughtered, and if you can look past the control system and some gameplay elements that did not age so well, you'll be in for quite a ride.

The Phantom Pain is an excellent title, albeit a little bit inconsistent. The gameplay is simply extraordinary, almost perfect, deep and bound to pave the road for the future of the stealth genre; at the same time, the plot is very powerful, but could have definitely been bolder and braver. Well, it's pretty clear that something went AWOL during the development of the game.

Until Dawn is a great mixture of all the cliches of the YA thriller genre, beautifully wrapped in a Heavy Rain formula. Supermassive Games did excellent work on the narrative; graphics and soundtrack are top notch, and so is the Italian voice-over.

Undoubtedly a niche product, Sword Art Online RE: Hollow Fragment is perfect for cosplayers and hardcore fans of Reki Kawahara's novels, but it won't probably be remembered for being a great dungeon crawler.

Volume may be less original if compared to Thomas Was Alone, but it's equally sophisticated in the selection of gameplay elements, built on the stealth genre with a lot of style.

Escape Plan Bravo is by far the best episode in the Tales From the Borderlands series, and probably in all the Telltale production. A true emotional rollercoaster, filled with intense and bizarre moments. How the writers will untangle the plot, well, it remains to be seen.

The porting of ZombiU on other platforms is decent, and the new control system is well implemented; the game is still good, with its great atmosphere and a nice mix of survival elements. The graphics, though, are almost identical to the original, and that's not a compliment.

Little Battlers Experience is the first chapter of a series that we cannot wait to see available the Western market. It doesn't create anything new nor redefines the standard of the RPG genre, but it's a title that definitely deserves your attention.

This is the Gauntlet we would have wanted to play last year: a lot of new features that increase the replayability, including two new game modes. There are still some issues with the camera, but overall this is a pretty good dungeon crawler.

The Chinese Room goes back to its roots of digital storytelling, in a slow-paced sci-fi story delightfully quiet and deep. Probably less original than Dear Esther, but a wonderful and amazing experience nonetheless.

ENKI appears as an amateur project, something that a group of friends can develop during weekends. Unfortunately it’s a commercial product, and it must be treated as such. It’s plagued by lots of design and technical issues, and it’s simply not fun.

Dark Room starts with a bang, with one of the most intense, soul crushing moments ever lived in a videogame. After that, tedious dialogues take over, together with few trial & error moments and some plot holes. This is probably the worst episode of an otherwise great series. Cannot wait to play the season finale.

Sometimes you are moved. Sometimes you laugh. For the most part, though, you get bored. The first episode of The King's Quest reboot has tremendous production values, with its over-the-top voice over and the extraordinary artistic direction, but the game relies too much on backtracking and tedious quests, and too little on the (clever and well-thought) puzzles. We can only hope for a drastic change of pace for the second episode.

N++ is the crowning moment of the technical platforms, where you almost blindly look after the high-score and climb the ladder of the global leaderboards. After ten years from its debut, this little gem offers complex but addictive gameplay, more than thousand levels, an engaging coop mode, and some nice social features.

Sorcerer King has a couple of interesting and original features, but Stardock focused a little bit too much on them, overlooking the pillars of the 4X genre, especially the AI of the enemies and the variety of the playable races. It's not a bad game, but definitely overpriced for what it can offer.

Tembo The Badass Elephant is really truthful to its name, thanks to a furious and exciting gameplay, perfectly tailored for all the fans of the platform genre. There's nothing really original here, but nonetheless Tembo is incredibly fun. Kudos to Game Freak.

Unexpectedly, this fifth episode of Telltale's Game of Thrones is a little bit more action-oriented, but the choices you'll make are bound to play a major role in the upcoming season finale. A pretty decent appetizer for the anticipated conclusion of this episodic adventure.

Heavensward is a big expansion for A Realm Reborn, a title pretty huge in itself. The main storyline is really captivating, and so are the three new jobs. Some features require a little tweaking and some dungeons are plagued by the copy-paste syndrome, but overall Square Enix is definitely fighting on an even ground with World of Warcraft.

It's simply amazing how Journey can still be so intriguing and captivating after all these years. A testament that some works can really stand the test of time.

An ugly game with broken old-school mechanics. Consider buying it if you are a Godzilla fan and after a cut price only.

Tamriel Unlimited is a good porting, but the game on console suffers from the same conceptual problems of the PC version. Try it if you are a fan of The Elder Scrolls saga only.

Codemasters misses the first next-gen attempt with a game poor of content, despite the presence of a good engine and a full F1 license.

A lot of fun (and a lot of blood) is waiting for you, especially if this is your first approach to the series.

God of War III has aged very well, mostly because of the great job done by Santa Monica Studios in the original game. A must-have if you have not played the PS3 version.

After the problems of the 2015 edition, the Stainless Games series returns to be a catching card game, thanks to the new free to play formula which, fortunately, does not bet everything on the pay per win system.

The new definition of fun in videogames: that is Rocket League. A formula so simple, yet so challenging and exhilarating, that it's impossible not to get hooked. The basics of the gameplay are pretty straightforward and accessible to everyone, but at the same time, as you gradually learn the ropes of the controls, things change quite a bit: the matches become more exacting and fun, thanks also to the excellent matchmaking system.

Ronin took some risks, trying to mix two very different genres, and combining them in what ends up being a stiff, repetitive yet short game. The concept is intriguing. The execution, not so much.

This third episode of the Telltale incursion into the Borderlands universe starts off reaaaally slow, gaining pace towards the end, with a great cliffhanger and some interesting twists between a couple of characters. A decent filler: nothing more, nothing less.

Natsume tried to bring the series back to its roots, scratching out some features, but in the process something got lost, primarily the feeling of discovery and fulfillment of the first episodes. Pass.

MotoGP is basically an enhanced edition of last year's racing sim by Milestone. The game benefits from the many improvements we already appreciated in Ride, the latest game of the Italian software house, and from a good level of polish. Fun, challenging and rich, it will keep the MotoGP fans busy for a long time.

It's hard to bash Devil May Cry 4 Special Edition: despite the porting being nothing more than a well executed homework, there is some new content that will definitely please the most loyal fans of Dante & C., i.e. three new characters and a new, extremely challenging difficulty level.

Spike Chunsoft tried to create something unique with its J-Stars Victory VS Plus, and we appreciate the effort, but the truth is that we can easily file this game under the "nice try" category. Beautiful to see, not fun to play.

This dino-themed installment of the LEGO series has an undeniable charm, but it's not the best LEGO game ever made. The gameplay is basically the same as the previous titles, with less fights and more puzzles. There are a few new elements, but nothing really noteworthy. Final warning: if you were expecting the original voices of the Italian movies (like in the English version), you're up for a huge disappointment. The Italian voiceover is plain awful.

Batman: Arkham Knight is a great final chapter for the Rocksteady trilogy, and by far the best title in the series. Amazing storytelling, a solid, well-known yet still engaging gameplay, and a convincing open world are the highlights of a top-notch production. The monumental graphics are just the icing on the cake. Fans of the Caped Crusader, thou shall not miss this game.

Like its little brother Yoshi's New Island on 3DS, Yoshi's Woolly World suffers from being a little too short, easy and somehow forgettable. That being said, this game could easily win the hearts of every Nintendo fan with its above-average level design, the great artistic direction, and its exhilarating cuteness.

With a little bit more courage and polish, Reincarnation could have been a great starting point for a reboot of a classic franchise. The gameplay is still fun and silly, but there is nothing really new here.

Heroes of the Storm manages to make room for itself in the crowded MOBA genre, thanks to its original gameplay mechanics, an outright immediacy and its addicting nature. The microtransactions are a little pricey, but everything else deserves your undivided attention.

Shark Punch makes its debut in the real-time tactics genre with some charming ideas, starting with an original setting and some well-crafted levels. Unfortunately, some questionable design choices, a less than average AI and a poor technical production clip the wings of a potentially nice title.

A useless game, more than a bad game. Give it a chance if you find it on sale only.

As a game, Ultra Street fighter IV is a blast, full of content that will keep you busy until the fifth chapter. The PS4 version, though, is a rather poor conversion.

Fossil Fighters Frontier is nothing more than a Pokémon rip-off, where the familiar little monsters are replaced by dinosaurs. A mediocre title that could appeal only to young lovers of the ancient, extinct reptiles. Forgettable.

This third and final DLC of The Evil Within took an unexpected (but welcome) action turn: after countless hours spent measuring out every single bullet, The Executioner is a nearly cathartic experience. Anyway, do not expect much more than a couple of hours of fighting, gore, and violence.

An episode that finally makes some bold moves on the chessboard of The Game of Thrones. The pieces are slowly coming together before the final two episodes, and the choices begin to have real meaning.

We were skeptical, at first, considering the strong multiplayer component of the game, and the limited amount of content. But boy, we were wrong. Splatoon is a coloured, hectic, engaging, raving, well-balanced and incredibly fun shooter that every Wii U owner should have in his library.

Van Helsing III is not a bad game, quite the contrary: the foundation is still solid and fun, but content-wise it seems like a big expansion of the previous installment. There are some new features, especially for classes and multiplayer, but honestly we expected something more.

House of Wolves is a DLC that follows the steps of the previous DLC, with some good ideas and some inexplicably stubborn design choices carried forward by Bungie. If you still enjoy playing Destiny, this is an expansion you don't want to miss. If, for some reasons, you skipped The Dark Below, aim for this one instead.

Chaos Theory continues the plot of Life is Strange in a fresh and unique way. A must have, with a thrilling ending.

Final Fantasy X/X-2 fans, rejoice! The game finally arrives on PS4, after being released on virtually any Sony platform. If you already played one of the previous versions, you won't find nothing new here but some technical improvements. But if that's not the case, go and grab a copy. Like, now.

No dice. Nero is a failure, however you look at it. It's a (pricey) indie title, but nevertheless it's technically more than mediocre; gameplay and storytelling are trite and stale, and so are the puzzles. Nero is the Italian word for black, and this game truly gives the developers a black eye.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is a great game, that is a fact. Its world is astonishingly huge, and it will keep everyone busy for months to come. The storytelling simply raises the bar for every other action RPG out there. Most of the flaws of the game are caused by its own ambition, and not everything can be fixed by a patch. Wonderful indeed, but not the masterpiece we were hoping for.

The Old Blood is a solid, fun and challenging shooter, with its distinctive mix between old and new school. Unfortunately, the original The New Order set the bar very high, and this expansion clearly can't keep up.

Project Cars is easy on the eyes, but most of all it's fun. It's a great racing sim, tough and challenging, capable of delivering a great motorsport experience.

This double feature from GungHO and Nintendo is really a treasure waiting to be discovered, especially in its combat and exploration elements. More beautiful than the iOS and Android versions, and incredibly more fun to play.

Code Name S.T.E.A.M. is an unexpected strategy game that beefs up the European line-up for Nintendo 3DS, pretty accessible, with a solid gameplay and an usual artistic direction.

This new venture into the terrifying world of The Evil Within is a pretty scary ride. The story leaves us with a lot of unsolved questions, and the gameplay stresses the survival component of the game. Overall, a nice addition that fans of Mikami will surely enjoy.

Despite some technical problems and a couple of inexplicable design choices, State of Decay is a pretty solid open-world survival, with a great balance between RPG, action and management elements.

Climax Studios has done well: Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: China is a fresh and enjoyable experience, both for fans and newcomers of the Creed.

Halo: Spartan Strike is nothing more than a filler in the main saga, but once you acknowledge that, you'll find a pretty good twin-stick shooter, with a good setting and solid gameplay. The multiplayer would have earned it a higher score.

Kirby and the Rainbow Curse is another good reason to have a Wii U in your living room. The small world of clay created by Hal Laboratory is wonderful to explore and fun to play.

To define GTA V PC as a simple 'porting' is simply wrong: minor technical issues aside (on their way to being fixed), this is the final celebration of a magnificent free-roaming game - perhaps the best ever made. Insanely fluid and beautiful to play.

An interesting mix between SOTC and a souls-like game. Unfortunately, Titan Souls is very short and the checkpoint system is a little bit broken. "Prepare to die, minimal edition" could be the best quote to describe the game in a couple of words.

If we had just one word to describe the new Mortal Kombat, that would be "excessive". The violence is always over the top (sometimes even a little bit too much so), and the various game modes and unlockables will keep you busy for quite a long time. A must-have for all the kombatants out there.

Affordable Space Adventures is an indie title that offers a charming mix between stealth and puzzle, with an excellent use of the GamePad, but we have to be honest, and admit that the game really shines when played with your friends.

Boxboy! is an addictive videogame, flavored with original and interesting puzzle moments. It's quite short, but the low price is really inviting.

Everything reminds to the player the old Metroid episodes. Despite too much backtracking, Axiom Verge is a "one man band" production that no one should miss.

There's never been a better time to be a "Souls" fan. First Bloodborne, and now this new edition of Dark Souls 2, that benefits from a remarkable visual upgrade and from some new content.

A dream for all the old-school RPG fans, despite some typical Obsidian bugs. If you can, wait for a couple of patches before jumping aboard.
