If you are looking for a VR experience that exploits the best from HTC Vive and that works in the most disparate situations, L.A. Noire: The VR Case Files is highly recommended.

Heavy Rain is an absolute classic of its unique genre of videogames. The story of the origami killer can still charm with its blend of mystery and noir ingredients and the remastered graphics are a plus to enjoy it. Unfortunately, the gameplay mechanics feel a little old, but this alone doesn't really kill the experience as a whole.

A simple looking racing game that's extremely fun and rapidly becomes addicting.

Statik is a nice surprise for puzzle-game lovers. A 5.5 hour long jigsaw puzzle immersed in an essential but fun genre VR.

WRC 4 is a bit more "pretty" and appealing than WRC 3. The new handling system is great, has been further refined, made even more exciting (finally, different surfaces returns different grip), with lots of fine tuning control on the steering wheel. That said, the new rally Milestone is not yet a true prodigy of beauty.

While not perfect, this remake manages to make a 1995 classic fit for modern standards. Respecting its past, Trials of Mana is a fun and highly replayable action JRPG.

Madden 19 does not redefine the series but it's a great game nevertheless.

Aftermath is not a huge expansion, but every bit of content that comes with it is fitting perfectly with what the base game already had to offer.

A very good looking and fun, if not very long, puzzle game.

The Evil Within 2 is definitely one step ahead of its predecessor: a rich, deep and long-lived horror survival. The level of difficulty has been considerably softened. If this makes the title more accessible, on the other hand, it denies that authoritative uniqueness of the title that inspired it.

This is kind of a Blues Brothers unofficial tie-in that plays like car chases from GTA. Lots of fun.

If you're looking for something different, funny and challenging, stop right there: Nom Nom Galaxy is your new favorite soup-strategy game.

Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector is a solid sequel, but without the surprise factor of its predecessor, the end result isn't quite as compelling.

Does it make sense to spend 20 € to play Resident Evil 4 in 2014? Who already knows everything about this 2005 classic made in Capcom maybe is gonna wait for a better offer on Steam. For all the others this PC port is mandatory and even if the game has some bitterness here and there, it remains one of the best Shinji Mikami's creations, as well as a true masterpiece.

A very well made game dedicated to the Great War. It could have more diplomatic options and the price is maybe a bit too high, but it definitely deserves your attention.

This Champion Edition is a cheap way to get back into Street Fighter V (when compared to the DLC packs of Tekken 7 or Dragon Ball FighterZ), but doesn’t add much to its original formula.

The virtual reality in CastleStorm VR does not add much to the original game’s formula that still remains as exciting as it was four years ago.

Table Top Racing is a very enjoyable kart racing game, with more depth than you would expect and a nice personality.

Meditate is harder than you expect if you try to do that on a roof or a volcano, but if you are a Shaolin monk, well it will be just cool. The Balance of Shaolin is just that: a simple and challenging game with a Shaolin Monk. And a Volcano.

All the highs and lows of the series are still there, for a final chapter that doesn't disappoint and introduces a couple of very nice new ideas. Puzzles are strong, narration is a bit cheesy, but generally speaking Cognition is worth playing.

An unexpectedly deep strategy game hidden under a simpler appearance. An enjoyable deep dive in humanity's greatest conflict.

Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin is a delightful game, a small production that exudes care from all pores and manages to instill a relaxing sense of calm in the player. The narration, which draws on classic Japanese folklore, has those simple but winning characteristics typical of the training story. A pure, cheerful and touching fairy tale, capable of holding on to the screen until the (splendid!) conclusion. Unfortunately, some naivety in mission management makes the second half of the game a bit redundant. It would have been perfect to "dry" the continuous backtracking, enriching the central part with some unprecedented fighting. However, Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin can be loved, with well implemented game elements and wonderful art direction.

A commendable comeback for the series, capable of offering a beautiful, bittersweet story and captivating gameplay in its liveliness.

A fun - if unoriginal - fantasy hack'n slash game both good for a single player experience and a multiplayer adventure- The free to play elements feel fair and the end game content is hard enough to pose as an interesting challenge.

Pokémon Sun and Moon clearly want to change some aspects of a long-standing series. The new features actually bring some of the mechanics up-to-date and, at last, there's a good level of challenge. A deeper plot makes the whole adventure even more enjoyable, too. Unfortunately, there are also some flaws: Alola is definitely too linear and the Pokédex has very few new entries. Overall, the graphics are good, but the frame rate drops dramatically kinda often.

A very good port of the last Ace Attorney game. The first case is free and then you have to pay for the others.

Angry Birds, but with jellyfishes. It's got a nice graphic style, good controls and a lot of challenge for players who aim at high scores.

A good remaster for the two LEGO Harry Potter games: the games' structure is a little outdated, if compared to the most recent LEGO games, but going back to Hogwarts is always a pleasure.

While lacking a true single player component (at least for the moment) and with some bugs and glitches still to patch, the new war simulator by Bohemia Interactive will capture hardcore gamers with a massive, vast, complex and layered new episode.

Pokémon Sun and Moon clearly want to change some aspects of a long-standing series. The new features actually bring some of the mechanics up-to-date and, at last, there's a good level of challenge. A deeper plot makes the whole adventure even more enjoyable, too. Unfortunately, there are also some flaws: Alola is definitely too linear and the Pokédex has very few new entries. Overall, the graphics are good, but the frame rate drops dramatically kinda often.

Pragmata is an old-school, linear yet intriguing sci-fi adventure that shines through its dual combat system and, above all, the relationship between Hugh and Diana, which forms the emotional core of the experience. Its combat stands out as one of the game's strongest elements, thanks to the seamless integration of shooting and real-time hacking, keeping tension high and encounters both dynamic and strategic throughout. The artistic direction and presentation are equally convincing, particularly in the first half, but it is the gradual development of Hugh and Diana's bond that truly drives the narrative and gives it emotional weight, even as the story begins to lose coherence later on. Despite some limitations that become more noticeable over time, especially in level design, narrative progression, and a slightly underwhelming overall length, the game remains a solid and enjoyable experience: easy to recommend to fans of linear, character-driven adventures.

High on Life is a game that keeps its promises. Underneath a skin made up of over the top humor there is a biting irony towards a genre (old school FPS’s) which has far too many tropes to make fun of (and here not even one is left behind). The sometimes chaotic level design, combined with not exactly exciting boss fights, risks overshadowing the merits of the Squanch Games game, but a good sum of game mechanics manages to keep everything afloat, waiting for the next joke and the resulting laugh.

An intriguing multi-choice adventure, Erica does almost nothing new but offers an interesting story and great replayability.

It has a short campaign and a steep price, but this homeworld-in-the-desert has style in spades, and a solid, albeit simple, RTS core.

The First Samurai is the worthy conclusion of a long journey, which reunites (without too many surprises) the beginning with the end in this epic narrative of a cycle of events that seems destined to repeat itself forever. Team Ninja recycles the formula of the first Nioh to bring to the most insatiable players an end-game able to entertain them for some time, without shining for inventiveness, but aiming for a pleasant more of the same.

Thronebreaker is an interesting spin-off, with a clever puzzle design and an interesting atmosphere. But its story could have been so much better.

A great action RPG, challenging, stimulating and full of passion. It has room for improvement, but if this is just the beginning we will see some great things.

Runner3 is a weird, funny game with lots of secrets. And some questionable new features and design choices.

If you like to explore a randomly generated world, mine and harvest everything your eyes can see and build any type of weird structures, Terraria is the right game for you. If you loved the PC version you will love the iOS version too, despite the lack of multiplayer and the size of the map.

Revolution 60 is a brave and ambitious cinematic adventure. It's probably not the best good looking game on App Store, but it is definitely worthy of your attention.

An entertaining spin-off that manages to retain the Darksiders vibe while shifting the perspective, offered at an inviting price point.

Difficult, tough, hardcore. Insurgency: Sandstorm is certainly not a FPS for everyone, but for the hardcore fans of the tactical line it's a good title.

A moving and incredibly poignant game that succeeds in what it's trying to accomplish despite its many missteps. If you're into interactive narration, you should definitely give it a try.

A great VR horror experience with clever narration and excellent audio. The game can be played traditionally, without an HMD, but it loses 90% of its charm.

Despite some flaws, Judgment holds up even when compared to the best entries in the Yakuza series, on both the narrative and gameplay sides.

The Sims 4 Star Wars: Journey to Batuu is definitely the perfect DLC for Star Wars and The Sims lovers. You don't want to miss it.

A good narrative adventure, less impactful than the first Life is Strange, but a great message.

A wide selection of classic boardgames and clubhouse games framed in a very nice package.

Narita Boy is an extremely enjoyable action game with absurd, dreamy and lysergic aestethics.

The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing II is not a chimera, wisely expanding the solid action RPG features of the first episode, from deeper skill trees to... a new chimera pet, indeed.

A direct sequel that does what you expect, smoothing out some rough edges to offer a more balanced experience than its predecessor.

Helldivers 2 is an enjoyable third-person shooter, especially in good company. It is. It is often challenging to play but equally rewarding in terms of gameplay.

One unforgettable experience, that unfortunately comes to an end too soon. But still, this is one journey everyone should embark on.

Behind the cute graphics there's a very demanding, fun and challenging puzzle game. Do not underestimate it.

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD is a competent port of one of the most peculiar episodes in the series, remarkable for its world design and for its control scheme.

In some ways, Immortals of Aveum can be seen as a wasted opportunity to give shooter fans a memorable experience with an outstanding graphics. Instead, Ascendant Studios' debut game turned out to be just a good first-person shooter that entertains without being boring, thanks to a surprising RPG component and gameplay that excellently does its job of entertaining players. In addition to a decent story and a not particularly long campaign, Immortals of Aveum also has to contend with a less-than-stable frame-rate and other flaws that do not allow it to be one of the best shooters of the last years.

Although not without its shortcomings and flaws, Eternal Strands proved to be a long-lived and solid action-adventure, both in exploration and in the combat system.

Little Nightmares 2 is a decisive step forward for Tarsier Studios. The art style is set to a high standard, but the gameplay novelties don’t all work perfectly. It remains a fascinating adventure, a must for anyone who loved the first Little Nightmares.

Batman: Arkham Origins is a good game, but unfortunately nothing more. You have a lot to do until the end of this crazy night, but everything seems already done and seen. If you loved Arkham City you definitely should play Origins too, but you will experience a strong déjà vu feeling all throughout your game.

The Wonderful 101: Remastered is an exciting concentration of fun. The wonderful design, the roaring, noisy sound; everything shines and enchants, just like seven years ago. And yet, despite its solid playability and full of concepts, the camera often struggles to follow the action at its best, becoming a real nightmare in the tightest of spaces (always very short, luckily). The game is difficult to tame, and perhaps that sense of continuous unbalance you feel in controlling the heroes is an integral part of the playful framework. However, there remains a pinch of regret in finding that such smudges have not been filed down.

This Remastered Collection proves to be a great graphical update of a masterpiece that stood the test of time.

Leave everything behind and immerse yourself in Story of Seasons, then work hard and get married.

Behind the lucha libre galore there's a solid action-game, with polished core mechanics, stunning visuals and a beautiful “old school” feeling. Lacking the perfection and the sense of loneliness of Super Metroid, Gaucamelee! may be too easy for a seasoned gamer. Beside that, it's fun and addictive.

Valentino Rossi: The Game is the official MotoGP videogame for 2016, with tons of content and features, and good gameplay.

Carly and the Reaperman: Escape From the Underworld demonstrates without a shadow of a doubt that cooperative VR can create compelling and intriguing experiences.

Mediterranea Inferno is a well-written visual novel that deals with adult themes in an honest, courageous, sometimes painful way, showing the experience of the pandemic from different points of view and able to reflect critically on contemporaneity. What is striking is Redaelli's ability to mix different expressive codes, combining Japanese aesthetics with Italian figurative art in order to evoke images capable of giving concreteness to symbols and allegories. At times it seems that the subtext has overtaken the text, making certain passages of the narrative somewhat instrumental to the reflection that follows, rather than the other way around, but all in all this is fine, because the storytelling works and leads to unexpected twists.

If you suffer the charm of pinball, if you love Star Wars and if you are looking for a game to always carry in your pocket, Star Wars Pinball for 3DS is a very good choice.

2Dark relegates the flatless only on the artistic side, hiding behind its style a deep and satisfying game. Unfortunately in that depth there are some bugs capable of breaking up the game.

Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened is a solid, long-lived detective adventure profoundly different from the original 2007 version. It’s a pity that the graphics are not up to the rest.

Fighting with all its spirit, WWE 2K14 delivers a solid performance on the ring and the crowd will be pleased by its action. There are some technical flaws and the graphics engine looks dated, but the game shines on a pure gameplay level and the 30 Years of Wrestlemania mode is really a blast.

Sleek and stylish as usual, Rhythm Paradise Megamix is still a blast to play, even if a little more predictable than in the past. Unlocking everything is a chore.

Outriders is a looter shooter that offers many hours of fun to players, despite some structural problems such as the absence of heterogeneity in the missions. The strong point, however, is fast-paced and explosive gameplay that is well-supported by interesting RPG mechanics.

Downward is not a perfect game, but its approach to the first-person action-platform environment works well and the graphics are great for a low budget production.

Drop Wizard is a real (and fun to play) tribute to old school games, for both visuals and gameplay. It’s not perfect but nevertheless fun.

A dive into the past, of course, but which does not bask in simple nostalgia, trying to offer the best of side-scrolling beat'em up genre, not just the Streets of Rage saga. A quarter century later, walking around a city full of thugs has probably never been this fun.

Ultraflow is a clever physics puzzle game which can be both hectic and thoughtful, and everything, from controls to visuals is crafted with expertise.

Despite being more than 10 years old, LocoRoco is still a beautiful and entertaining game, thanks to a deep gameplay, a brilliant level design and a relaxed atmosphere. The remastered is not that perfect (low-res cutscenes, a new – luckily, optional – motion-control system that is not so accurate), but fortunately LocoRoco aged very well.

POSSIBLE Game’s Poco Eco is more musical experience than a real game but overall is a fine production, with something new to offer to App Store.

A little piece of art full of potential that slips over its conclusion.

Despite its compromises, The Witcher 3 is still a breathtaking adventure and the best RPG for Nintendo Switch till now.

It lacks a two player mode and the graphics look dated, yet fans of old-school shoot'em ups will feel very good playing Raiden V, especially if they are high-score hunters.

Insurgency: Sandstorm hits the mark on consoles as well, proving to be a tactical shooter that's not easy to master but extremely rewarding for those who love its hardcore gameplay and slow, reasoned firefights.

From the school of Frozen Synapse, a plan-and-go turn based tactical game which is going to shine in multiplayer.

Moss: Book II, the second part of Quill's journey is a much more complete and engaging experience. Building on the experience accumulated with the first chapter, Polyarc has built a sequel with ingenious puzzles and clashes with enemies that, although not particularly difficult , manage to maintain tension thanks to the variety of high interactions possible between the player, the environment, the enemies and the protagonist.

Ellie grows up looking at the grown-up world of The Last of Us through her youthful eyes. It takes only a couple of hours of our life to grow up with her, though. If you have 15 euros Left Behind to play with Ellie and Riley, just do it. Your combat skills won’t grow up too much, but you will be filled with emotion by this short yet touching coming-of-age videogame.

Last Days of Old Earth is a 4X-meets-CCG with a personality of its own. While fairly light on content, it features good gameplay and a solid AI.

State of Decay 2 is the classic "more of the same" sequel which, however, thanks to some interesting innovations and a deep game formula, does not disappoint.

Descenders is an essential experience of arcade racing, inspired by the great 90s classics, which relies on a crazy sense of speed and adrenalinic gameplay. It may be a little bit rough in terms of visuals, but it's hectic and fun.

Quotation forthcoming.

Just Dance 2019 is the perfect party game: it's immediate, entertaining and crazy as always, but with a new interface that puts (more than ever) the dance at the center of everything.

A really entertaining musical platform game. It's a bit on the short side, but the Time Trial mode should keep you busy for a while.

A nice, historically accurate and not too complex wargame. There is little truly new, if compared to the previous Field of Glory II, but the gameplay is solid and the medieval setting always fascinating.

Cobalt is a resourceful game stained only by a controversial artistic direction. An indie gem that, between single-player and multiplayer, gives everything and does it well.

Although it does not win the award for the best golf simulation on the planet (EA still holds that title), PGA Tour 2K25 offers fans a worthy experience on greens and fairways. The changes to the swing phase are spot on, as are the revised physics for courses and balls. The improvements made to MyPlayer and MyCareer are truly appreciable, while the addition of the three majors will please all lovers of the noble sport.

Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake successfully resurrects the absolute masterpiece of the franchise. The visual overhaul, the suffocating sound design, and the new side stories deepen an already tragic and unforgettable narrative. While the updated combat system is mostly a step forward, questionable additions like 'enraged' spirits and a slightly unbalanced upgrade economy can artificially slow down the pacing, especially during the first playthrough. Still, these flaws cannot overshadow what remains a phenomenal, chilling, and emotionally devastating J-Horror experience that every genre fan should play.

What a truly charming, fascinating little game Wayward Sky is! One of the best PSVR experiences available right now.

Persona 4 Arena Ultimax brings to modern gaming platforms all the content and updates wisely crafted by Arc System Works for Atlus' best fighting game yet. Unfortunately no new relevant features are included with this porting but at least the game has been freed from the shackles of old gen consoles.

Persona 5 Strikers is the perfect sequel to Persona 5. A game that reinvents the formula that has made hundreds of thousands fall in love, while maintaining the pompous and unattainable style that characterizes the series. The first half of the adventure falls short in comparison with the second, and even at the highest difficulties the game fails to provide a real challenge, but these issues won't ruin what is, in fact, a really fun experience with an incredible cast of characters some of the best moments in the entire saga.
