Hades was a success, and despite reservations with its sequel, I can say that this latest game is impressive. The new mechanics, the new tone in its narrative, more serious and darker.

Balatro is as fun as simple, is not necessary to know about Poker, because a short tutorial leave you the basic and that's more than enough to get fun.

After analyzing every detail of Josef Fares' new game, I can only say that he and his team at Hazelight Studios are incredibly talented, proving once again that their creativity is on another level. Someone might say that a cooperative game can't be that good and that its concept can feel forced, but Split Fiction completely dismantles that idea. It's an experience that you must play, with rich and varied gameplay that draws you in and doesn't let go until the end.

Resident evil 2 returns the best way it could possibly be. Capcom is establishing the groundwork for the franchise with this remake.

One of the most honest approaches to death ever made in videogames.

Death Stranding is a truly great game. One of those that there are few of. One of those that I would put between Nier Automata and Outer Wilds. That kind of experience that, as a player, you should never miss, because it is so different from the AAA we are used to . I would recommend it blindly, with its pros and cons, and I would even justify some of its “problems” with a psychology towards the player that really ends up getting rid of the infamous “Ludonarrative Dissonance”. Its arrival on Xbox is surprising, to say the least, because even though it had already arrived on iPhone, I think it's a game that is best enjoyed on a big screen in your living room, almost as if you were going to watch a movie (we already know how much Kojima likes movie-games).

This is the pinnacle of the series, a definitive experience . Monster Hunter Wilds offers everything that players have longed for from previous installments.

A magnificent visual novel dressed up as a dating simulator.

By defending its rurality, Persona 4 Golden teaches us that acceptance does not imply liking, but experiencing the reality of ourselves without any kind of denial or rejection.

Ada Wong has everything that could interest a video game protagonist. She's strong, she's independent, she's attractive, and she's an absolute killing machine. And after spending these hours with her, closer to her, he also manages to maintain that halo of mystery that always surrounds him. You don't even have the feeling that Capcom is deliberately hiding something from you. What's going on in her head is still there and it's hard to reveal it. Flashes of her personality are reflected through her help to Leon or in the decisions she makes, but she is definitely not a heartless mercenary who only cares about killing.

There are plenty of examples of how to do a remaster right, and this is one of them. In Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse Remastered, Skunkape's love for the franchise is evident . If you haven't played the previous installments, you might be wondering if you can take on this adventure without any problems understanding the story, and the answer is yes, although there are many details that are covered or seen to have happened in previous installments. In any case, if you like point-and-click adventures, the Sam & Max saga has a lot to offer, so I recommend that you play each of the installments, including the one from 1993.

With a fast-paced pace, Quake II delivers the most fun action and unleashes multiplayer fever in one of the great First Person Shooters of the 1990s.

Shinobi: Art of Vengeance marks the triumphant return of a legendary series that had been silent for too long. SEGA and Lizardcube have achieved what seemed almost impossible: bringing back the essence of Shinobi without falling into mere nostalgia , offering a game that works for both veterans and new generations. Comparing it to series like Ninja Gaiden is inevitable, but also unfair. While Ninja Gaiden always opted for more frenetic gameplay and a high level of difficulty, Shinobi: Art of Vengeance offers a more balanced pace, with an emphasis on combat and strategy . They are two distinct offerings that, in reality, complement each other.
