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.

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.

Forget the excruciating loading times and the grumpy framerate: Bloodborne is a wonderful game. Period. Every PS4 owner should go and buy it, no question asked. It requires an utter devotion to the cause, but it repays the player like no other game does. As they say, blood will out.

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.

A great porting of the original N64 title that pushes the New Nintendo 3DS hardware to the limit. A must-have for all the Zelda fans (but you already know that, right?) and for everyone looking for something great to put in their new console.

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.

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 best looking 2D game ever, there is no doubt. If you love metroidvania games, Ori and the Blind Forest is a master of the genre, despite some trial & error moments and a couple of bugs.

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.

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.

Simply, the best Out Run version out there, even without the Prancing Horse on the body. A timeless classic in your pocket.

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.

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.

The new expansion of the Blizzard MMORPG has a lot to offer: a great storyline, the new garrison and the boasted "back to the roots". If you're looking for a reason to return to Azeroth, well, you've found it.

Quotation forthcoming.

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.

Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate is, hands-down, the best installment in the Capcom Saga. The game improves basically every gameplay element that long-time fans know and love, and it's the first title to really show the capabilities of the New Nintendo 3DS. A must have.

A real blast from the past. A wonderful remake of the first two titles of the Homeworld saga, with awesome new graphics and a revamped UI that improve an already excellent RTS. A true must-have, no questions asked.

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.

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.

OlliOlli 2 is a good old "more of the same", with slight graphical improvements, new tricks and grinds. The resulting gameplay is always fun and more varied, but at the same time much more difficult than the original.

It may not be the worst porting in history of videogames, but it comes pretty close. Xenoblade Chronicles 3D is still a great game, but we strongly advise you to play it on Wii.

One of the best puzzle adventures of the past few years, that can be enjoyed on different levels: excellent puzzles with a great use of physics, non-linear storytelling juggling between sci-fi and philosophy, and some touches of sheer genius.

This is what SimCity should have been. Simply, the best city builder so far, with great support for modders and a lot of fun for all fans of the genre.

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.

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.

The new decks bring even more chaos into the game, which is always a good thing. The expansion gives you the opportunity to experiment on brand new strategies, and to play like you never did before.

The multiplayer is worth the ticket price.

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.

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.

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.

Hard to recommend DMC: Definitive Edition to everyone who have already played the original title. It's still a great action game, blessed by new 60fps 1080p graphics, and it's definitely a must have for those who missed it two years ago.

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.

A game tailored to the fans of the Persona series that finally makes its debut on the Nintendo console. A very robust dungeon crawler that will appease beginners as well as hardcore players.

Welcome to survival horror. This new edition of an all-time classic has a lot of flaws, and some gameplay elements show their age, but its inherent value is fathomless.

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.

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.

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.

Despite the notable absence of the first Borderlands in this collection, the sheer amount of content and fun of The Handsome Collection is bound to make everyone happy. If you've never been a Vault Hunter, now's the time to jump on board.

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.

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.

A well-done and solid title, a simple yet intriguing metroidvania. There's a little bit of backtracking and the game is pretty short, but the replayability is good and the price is definitely right.

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.

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?

This collection is a good bargain for newcomers of the little Nintendo console; for those who already played the original titles there is nothing really new, apart from some small graphic improvements. Beware: the Italian language is not supported.

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.

A game that gives further meaning to the expression "Nintendo difference". Extremely varied gameplay, with clever puzzles and very colorful art direction. The only complaint is the troublesome camera.

Helldivers is a solid twin-stick shooter that will force you to use your brain, not only your pad. Addictive with friends, boring when played alone. Give it a chance: you might be surprised.

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.

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.

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.

The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 is proof that it's possible to make a great graphic adventure, even in 2015. It's pretty difficult and requires more attention than your average puzzler, but you'll love the art direction, the story and the humour.

A pricey game when originally released on consoles, on PC it's a real steal. The main quest is pretty short, but the replay value is very high, and the game itself is a remarkable showcase for the FOX Engine.

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.

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.

The new Elite picks up where the original left and improves its gameplay in every possible way. A great space sim that manages to be deep and complex without becoming too intricate, with room for future improvements. Could be the right reason to plug an Oculus Rift in your PC.

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.

When released, this game rightfully found a seat among the Gods of the Gaming World. If you've never played it, it's time for a ride, despite some small technical issues.

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

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

The Assignment is a good DLC, with more survival-oriented gameplay and tailored to the fans of the original The Evil Within. It may come a little short, considering that it will take less than three hours to complete it.

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

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.

With this chapter, Creative Assembly brings the Total War franchise to a new level. You can consider it a great - and fresh - start.

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.

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.

God of War has finally found his 2D little brother. It's a fascinating title, with great art direction and a well-balanced gameplay.

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.

Based on the popular gamebook, it's a good porting of an iOS title, penned by Joe Dever himself. A deep and fascinating experience, with a great replay value.

Atlas Mugged is an interlocutory episode, with no surprises and no boring moments as well. Let's wait for the next one.

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.

Neocore Games has mixed two different genres in an unique tower defense. Despite some balance issues, Deathtrap is a fun game, able to keep the player engaged for several hours.

République Remastered is a little gem, especially if you believe that everything around you is a conspiracy. Inspired by legends of the stealth genre such as Metal Gear and Resident Evil, it manages to keep its own identity, and to be a great showcase of the new Unity 5 Engine.

Dontnod manages to create a new, fascinating and compelling world. A true chrysalis, that can hopefully rise and become a beautiful butterfly.

Inazuma Eleven GO Chrono Stones has a nimble story and an adorable set of characters. It may not be the most revolutionary RPG ever made, but if you are a fan of soccer (and anime), you are all in for a real treat.

The Sword in the Darkness is the third and the best episode so far. Play it, enjoy it and wait for the new one.

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.

Inazuma Eleven GO Chrono Stones has a nimble story and an adorable set of characters. It may not be the most revolutionary RPG ever made, but if you are a fan of soccer (and anime), you are all in for a real treat.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

We can't but confirm our good impression about Life is Strange: a great interactive novel, with a charming art direction, an awesome soundtrack, and a plot that's getting even more complicated.

Evolve is a good game or a bad game, depending on what you are searching for. There's a lot of potential, partially unexpressed because of the necessity of playing with friends (avoid the strangers!) and the absence of loot and crafting. Give it more than a chance, especially if you have previously played L4D.

Atelier Shallie: Alchemists of the Dusk Sea is basically a more of the same, which is not necessarily a bad thing. If anything, we'd have appreciated more attention to the old fans of the saga, rather than making things simpler for newcomers.

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.

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

Not the best remastered edition of all time, but a fun and satisfying game nonetheless. The DLCs extend the longevity of an already huge (and highly insane) game. Despite the low price, it's not recommended if you already played it on PS3.

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.

Grow Home is like a raw diamond, and as such it must be treated. It's original, fun, and intriguing, but it needs a little more polishing.

Despite the obsolete graphics and some old-fashioned gameplay mechanics, Telltale's first step into the Game of Thrones saga is a winner. Great storytelling, excellent characters, and a great use of the official license. A must have for every GoT fan.

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.

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.

DoA 5 Last Round is the right game at the right time, considering how much fans of the genre have been waiting for a good beat-em up on their new console. The reasonably low price and the great amount of content definitely help.

The first isometric adventure of Lara Croft was an enjoyable game, and this sequel delivers an equal amount of fun, provided that you have some friends to play it with. Otherwise, the game is really short, easy, and not something you'll remember for its technical merit.

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.

A much plumper DLC than Escape from Durgesh Prison, Valley of the Yetis offers a new location and some fresh ideas like the night assaults. A must-have, at least if you loved the original Far Cry 4.
