    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++
    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.
