    A very simple and 'old school' platformer: not enough for the champs of the genres, but suitable for a 10-year old who wants to extend the movie experience. Nice looks and animations, too bad for some unforgivable frame rate problems on PS4.

    Rodea the Sky Soldier on Wii U is a good idea, but a broken game with a frustrating control scheme. Visually it's a game of almost a decade ago. Forget it.

    Football Manager 2016 is the cornerstone of a new era. The game we already know gets many little improvements, and Create-A-Club and online Fantasy Draft modes, despite some restrictions, are a precious and welcome additions (and addictions) to the game.

    Maybe the old series fans won’t appreciate Anno 2205, but thanks to graphics, gameplay and type of approach we are looking at a very solid futuristic city builder.

    Call of Duty: Black Ops III is a good third chapter for the Black Ops series and features a long story mode that could have been just a little better in details. The game offers a lot of content, but suffers from the balancing of weapons, abilities and specialists across all the game modes.

    The look is not up to what is expected from a 2015 top production, but looking past it you can find a really addictive Open World RPG. Fallout 4 is as good as its predecessor, or even more: a must buy for every fan of the saga out there.

    Chibi-Robo doesn't make a good comeback with Zip Lash. The game has some good ideas... and that's it. Sometimes controls are dull and, despite the first levels actually are fun, in the long run it gets, unfortunately, monotonous.

    Persona 4: Dancing All Night is an easy, funny rhythm game. A saga lack of knowledge is not a big problem, but in that case, you lose a lot in terms of appeal.

    Lara faces her greatest adventure yet. It's a compelling and interesting journey, just a bit too close to the 2013 reboot in terms of pure gameplay. But a joy to play and explore nonetheless.

    Driveclub Bikes is some cool fresh air in the Driveclub world. The bikes feel and play great and they're awesome to drive. Some new levels and game modes would have been a nice addition too.

    Another step in the direction of a more complete, tactical and realistic wrestling experience, outside and inside the ring. Better flow, yet slower pace.
    • 84 Metascore

    A pretty simple and straightforward point and click adventure, yet with an adorable, over the top personality. Absolutely irresistible if you love horror, kawaii and... toilet humor.

    One of the best Need for Speeds ever. Even if Ventura Bay can be a bit boring, the game is pure fun and adrenaline-driven.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    A JRPG that even those who don't appreciate the genre might like. There are many stereotypes, but the combat system and characters are the pillars of a truly enjoyable game.

    Halo 5: Guardians is one of the most fun shooters of this generation. It has some problems in the single-player, but emerges and petrifies its competitors in multiplayer.

    You'll love the new guitar and its scheme, and you're probably goin' crazy over the GH TV. On the other hand, the GH Live mode is shallow and the multiplayer options are a step back for the series.

    You can't go wrong with Broforce: it's a blast of fun, a beautiful and addictive shoot'em up. Its a total package, wonderful to watch - with its gorgeous pixel-art style - and wonderful to play. A must. Period.

    • 85 Critic Score
    Tri Force Heroes is a clever and extremely funny multiplayer game for a local bunch of heroes wannabe. It's a shame that its online mode lacks the voice chat. Also: the single player campaign can be really boring at times.

    A restart from scratch for the WRC series, but does not leave a mark in the mud of the World Rally Championship.
    • 67 Metascore

    Project Zero: Maiden of Black Water is a good survival horror. Its story and creepy atmosphere are involving, but unfortunately the use of Wii U GamePad is really unhandy.

    Another very good Assassin's Creed game, not as amazing as Unity, but featuring interesting new elements.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A good beat'em up, with all the characters you need, even if they seem all the same one at times. Extreme Butoden got some really good and exhilarating moments, but the lack of the online game is a real shame.

    Mushroom 11 is a dynamic puzzle game based on a very unique idea that boasts a lot of style, is very polished and really hard to beat. It will make you scream with rage, but it's never unjust.

    Dragon Quest Heroes is one of the best musou games we've played in a while, thanks to its intriguing RPG elements.

    Rock Band 4 is the same, old, highly enjoyable Rock Band you remember. The lack of online multiplayer is a bummer, but the new solo/freestyle mechanics are right on spot.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Transformers Devastation is lots of fun for every Autobots lover that wants to lead good old Optimus Prime and friends against the evil Decepticons, through many and well designed combats with a deep fighting system. Unfortunately, the game features poorly designed levels and a weak story that is not going to make you want to play it again once you'll get to the ending credits.

    • 88 Critic Score
    Disgaea 5: Alliance of Vengeance is a tactical RPG deep and infinitely durable. The innovations made to gameplay, though not epochal, can give the right breath of fresh air to the brand. A great game for all fans of Japanese RPGs, and a good start for anyone who wants to approach the genre.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A very unique experience, that you should avoid if you're looking for a “traditional” adventure game. But it's really well made, emotionally strong and extremely good in communicating its messages.

    So much new content, and quality content too. Some problems are left unanswered, but, overall, Beyond Earth has gained a great boost in personality and uniqueness.

    • 59 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    Unfortunately the flaws found in gameplay (especially for the AI) penalize the final score, but thinking only two years ago about a 7 for an episode of the series was pure science fiction.

    The Talos Principle is a beautiful puzzle game that requires the player to ask himself some questions about life, while solving hard and structured puzzles.
    • 67 Metascore

    Albeit faithful to the original spirit of the series, this seventh chapter seems devoid of a true soul. A couple of good ideas can't save it from the abyss of mediocrity.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    Armikrog is original, extremely funny and very unique, but it could be more refined and it's a bit limited in its puzzle structure. It's also not that long, especially if you consider the steep price (which is probably caused by the claymation technique, but still… ).

    The true challenge of The Beginner’s Guide is understanding it in its entirety.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    A very clever and addictive shoot'em up co-op game, with a lovable, not pun intended, appearance. Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime has some little flaws, like its difficulty spikes, but aside those it's perfectly executed.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Saint Seiya: Soldiers' Soul doesn't treat Masami Kurumada's saga fairly. Poor gameplay makes it a kinda tedious game and the graphic is sub-standard for a PlayStation 4 game. All the characters and their special moves are very well designed, though.
    • 86 Metascore

    If you never played Uncharted, with the Nathan Drake Collection you're in for a hell of a ride. But the lack of any juicy extra content is a shame.

    This year's addendum to Skylanders' franchise is convincing: vehicles were introduced and could widen the gameplay with no overturn on the mechanics that made the game shine in the past years. Skylanders SuperChargers is still the usual, enjoyable action-platform... with a roaring twist.
    • 84 Metascore

    Classic horror fiction, well written and full of atmosphere, although it's not scary like other horror-games and there is some downtime too.

    The Taken King is a major expansion, compared to the previous ones. A new portion of universe based on a new philosophy and rich with things to do: campaign, assaults and much more. This is likely what we were expecting from day one.

    FIFA 16 doesn’t reinvent football, but talks about football: CPU might be a little ‘too perfect’, and the goal keepers are far from perfect, but the game is a step forward in the right direction.

    Armello is a beautifully crafted strategic videogame inspired by old school board games you can usually play with friends around a table in the same room. Grab a pad and test yourself and your friends online at the game of the Lion's throne or challenge the CPU to crown the new king of Armello.

    The third iteration of Disney Infinity brings the game to new levels. Problems seen in the two previous games are fixed, and we can now dive in the Star Wars universe thank to an all-new, enjoyable combat system. And beyond that, the Toy Box is richer than ever.

    Tons of playable characters, the whole plot of Eichiiro Oda's work and a lot of action: One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3 seems a fantastic game for every fan of One Piece, and just them. Everyone else could be held back by its repetitive mechanics and missions.

    Not just a tribute to one of the most beautiful games ever made, but a real, addicting game able to hook the players. Pac-Man 256 is the proof that revisiting old classic for a new, extraordinary life on mobile platform is possible.

    A very good Mad Max game, with some excellent bits but also some issues. The setting is great, car combat is incredibly fun - there's a good sense of freedom and the main missions are pretty good, but the story is quite flat (even though the ending is great), the fighting system is nothing more than decent and the optional stuff becomes pretty repetitive.

    Devil's Third triumphantly fails both as an action game and as a shooter: Itagaki's fall from grace is thunderous and bewildering, and the drama is almost surreal. It's hard to tell what happened to the genius behind Ninja Gaiden, but the result here is frankly depressing.

    N++
    N++ is a lot of fun and hella hard, with a ton of different and challenging levels that are going to keep you busy for a while.
