    God of War debuts on PS4 with a technically well done remastered edition... that lacks everything else. It's just one game, without any meaningful bonus content and a tag price a bit on the high end.

    Football plus cars: Rocket League by Psyonix is the perfect psychotropic cocktail to satisfy your thirst for action and competition. Become a goal machine has never been so fun.

    Fallout Shelter is a good way to expand Bethesda's universe, but definitely lacks in depth to engage on the long run.

    There's always something special in the way LEGO transform every saga, but maybe for Traveller's Tale it's time to spice its formula up.

    The PC version of the classic WayForward game is a beauty to behold and extremely fun to play. If you're not into Time Attack mode, though, it's a bit on the short side.

    A nice action RPG, with a lot of character and an interesting story, but some annoying flaws in terms of execution and a pretty bland action gameplay.

    It's nice to get this classic game on Steam, but it clearly shows its age in terms of graphics and, more than anything, limited artificial intelligence.

    • 75 Critic Score
    Duck Game is crazier than Daffy Duck, uses all the Acme features and yells like Donald Duck. It's a clever mess, an insane shoot'em up, recommended for its multiplayer features. With the right friends, you'll have a lot of fun.

    A great example of interactive fiction, beautifully written, with interesting themes and some pretty evocative graphics.

    Toren is quite good from an artistic point of view, but in terms of level design it's pretty bland and it's got too many technical issues.
    • 74 Metascore

    A nice puzzle game, with some interesting level design and a cute concept. It lacks a bit of personality and it gets really fun only in the final world.

    With its “rounded concept”, Sleep Attack tries to put some fresh ideas into the tower defense genre. Mission accomplished: the game is fun, addictive and clever. A recommended choice, even for the genre's freshmen.

    New characters, old backtracking: this Special Edition further enhances the stylish hack 'n' slash combat system of DMC4 without improving its cheap level design as well.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    Guilty Gear Xrd: Sign, even with its flaws and the sense of a project in some way… unfinished, is an extraordinary fighting game and a must buy for anyone who loves the genre.
    • 69 Metascore

    An edition for 3DS somewhat rich for options and content, but overall presentation is pretty weak.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A honest remaster of a criminal co-op FPS that is definitely worth a try, but only if you haven't already done it elsewhere.
    • 46 Metascore
    • 54 Critic Score
    Natsume tried everything to give an identity to the latest Harvest Moon. The result, though, is too slow and boring.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    Yoshi's Woolly World is a great platform game, with clever level design but few really intriguing new ideas. Nonetheless with its challenging gameplay and lots of personality, it's the best Yoshi game since Yoshi's Island on the SNES.
    • 61 Metascore

    Its structure lacks of frills and it may appear to simple, but J-Stars Victory VS. + is a joy to play and can count on an excellent roster of fighters.

    MotoGP 15 is a fun game, but it needs a restart with great momentum and a new engine.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 93 Critic Score
    A beautifully crafted, written and acted investigative adventure. It's a smart and deep take on the FMV “genre” and even if it's probably not for everybody, anybody who's interested in these kind of experiments should give it a try.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Despite a not-so-smooth introduction of the huge anticipated Batmobile, Arkham Knight is an amazing game, and one of the best examples of open world games so far. The way you can interact with Gotham is remarkable, and there’s so much love for the DC’s comics that you can feel it in every corner of the city. Goodbye Rocksteady, and thanks for all the bats.
    • 43 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Repetitive, short-lived, without a real plot and full of senseless massacres. Hatred is not a great game, but in its simple twin-stick shooter mechanics, it’s not too bad and it provides some cute ideas.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 81 Critic Score
    An interesting mix of tactics and management, enriched by the typical Double Fine mood. Too bad for the over-simplified fighting engine, yet the game is charming enough to entertain for a long time.

    No doubt: Farming Simulator 15 is the best agricultural simulation for the next-gen consoles. Warning: it's not for everyone.
    • 71 Metascore

    Ultra Street Fighter IV arrives on PS4 with lots of game modes, characters, costumes and all the traditional SF4 flavor. A must-buy for beat'em up lovers who have passed on previous versions.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Funny, innovative and easy to learn. Heroes of the Storm is not just another MOBA. It's "just" another great Blizzard game.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 69 Critic Score
    With many old features removed and some new caps introduced, The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing III feels like a shadow of its former self. That said, it is still worth the journey into the original atmosphere, the excellent script and the challenging gameplay of the trilogy, just one last time.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    A funny Pokémon clone with a “Jurassic” spin: the combat system is good enough, but the graphic is really weak and the action a bit too repetitive in the long run.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    Magicka 2 is a funny and entertaining co-op experience, but should have focused a little more on innovation.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    Portal meets The Cube in a fun, smart and well designed puzzle game. Graphics are not that good, though, and if you're not into replayability it's a bit on the short side.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Going back to Destiny was not exciting as we hoped, with most of the content not original enough to convince. Trials of Osiris are well done, though.

    Galactic Civilizations III is a solid entry to a beloved strategic saga. It's just a bit disappointing that the calls for bolder innovations were not heard.

    Technobabylon is a really good indie graphic adventure, with a nice sci-fi setting, some smart ideas, deep themes, good writing and interesting puzzles.

    Guns, Gore & Cannoli is a short experience, which sadly lasts about two hours. It goes straight to the point, but fades away too quickly, leaving dust and nothing else.

    • 88 Critic Score
    Despite being incredibly easy to get into, Super Mega Baseball is built upon an accurate simulation that makes it quick and solid at the same time and places it in the same league as a timeless classic like HardBall!.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    Rock, paper, scissors: choose wisely and you won't regret your move. Paperbound, even if it isn't as good as Towerfall Ascension, is a clever choice, recommended for a local multiplayer experience.

    If you're a fan of the original game, this downloadable content is worth the price.

    Single Player Cooperative Platforming Action is the name of the game! Fun, smart and quite challenging, Kalimba is a bit short but quite hard to master.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    Westerado: Double Barreled dresses like John Wayne, shoots like Clint Eastwood and has Lee Van Cleef's attitude. It won't last too long, but it's a beautiful, clever and addictive experience. You won't find anything like it on Steam.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    An old school fantasy first person shooter like we rarely see. It can get repetitive on the long run, but genre lovers should try it.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    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.
    • 76 Metascore

    Blazko's new adventure is surely still fun and challenging, yet far from the must-buy experience that The New Order was.

    The best possible version of Final Fantasy X and one of the best remastered version of an old generation console game to date: Square Enix did an amazing job to take all Tidus and Yuna’s fans back to Spira.

    The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt isn’t perfect (yet?), but it’s one of the best written RPGs ever.

    If you like the puzzle genre, the double package of Puzzle & Dragons Z + Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition are worth buying.

    A good graphic adventure with some balancing issues and a disappointing second half in terms of narration.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 89 Critic Score
    With its strange and addictive premise, Crypt of the NecroDancer goes straight to the point. It's fun, clever and original. Adding the rhythm-game concept to the roguelike formula, the game apparently changes the rules, but doesn't deny its roots.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 81 Critic Score
    It’s ugly, but it’s also a brilliant strategic game developed by a talented and experienced team, Intelligent Systems: give it a chance if you’re a curious fan of the genre.

    It's not a hardcore simulator, but it's close enough. Project CARS is a very good game to drive.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    An interesting take on what could be a Shadowrun MMORPG, but with the lack of endgame content and PVP the game loses much of its appeal.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    State of Decay: Year One Survival Edition is a package full of goodies. The game itself is still one of the best steps towards the dream of a persistent apocalyptic world, but poor graphics and the lack of multiplayer are even worse today than two years ago.

    AC Chronicles: China is a funny and smart game that capitalizes on what made Assassin's Creed so successful.

    When it focuses on the classic platform elements, Kirby and the Rainbow Curse shines brightly. It's a pity it often tries to change itself into something less exciting.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    A clever, fascinating exploration game based on puzzle solving. It's brief and it doesn't offer any replay value, but it's also different from every other game around.

    Good gameplay, tons of modes, in the lovable and unique Mortal Kombat style. Another very good job from NetherRealm Studios.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    A smart, original and beautifully crafted small game that will challenge your nerves and your skill. It's maybe a bit on the short side and its core mechanic can be polarizing, but you should definitely try the demo and, if you like it, you should buy it immediately.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    Azure Striker Gunvolt may just seem a nostalgic homage to the Mega Man games of the past, but speaking the truth it's an action game with a strong personality. Fast, furious and technical, it will be loved by the fans of the genre.

    • 76 Critic Score
    As always, Ride is a good starting point for Milestone, an encouraging debut for a new IP, with a solid foundation from which (re)starting, but also other aspects to be improved in the future. Definitely worth buying if you're a motorbike enthusiast.

    Iron Fisticle's nostalgic trip is fun, but sadly it doesn't last too long. It feels like a medieval Robotron 2084, proving how clever was Eugene Jarvis' idea. The game is addictive, but its content burns quickly.

    Castle In The Darkness is a wonderful game, a clever Metroidvania. Matt Kap, its designer, goes straight to the point, taking the best from the NES era. Like a rose, this game has its thorns and stings, but, as the say, “no pain, no gain”.

    Borderlands: The Handsome Collection is a very good opportunity to play one of the best games of the old generation (Borderlands 2) in 1080p at 60fps. Some technical issues can ruin the experience with The Pre-Sequel.

    Axiom Verge is more than a spiritual successor to Metroid. It’s a tribute to an era, a story whose words are pixels, arranged with maternal care and extraordinary wealth. In addition to being a great video game is also an ode to the past, the cry of a creature never really extinguished, that now more than ever is able to recover from the ashes of the mass market.

    For now we have to settle for a first weak chapter, not without merits (dialogues, characters, settings) but even more full of flaws, including adventurous elements almost entirely absent, a bit of boredom and a confused and botched first part.

    The problem with Starships isn't its quick and light gameplay, which actually has some very nice design ideas. Its problem is a complete lack of balance and refinement: the AI is lacking, some mechanics are negligible and others are way overpowered. We expected more from a game with Sid Meier in the title.

    Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number goes straight to the point: it's brutal, addictive and raw. You'll be soaked in blood, even in guts, and you're gonna enjoy it. A wonderful shoot'em up, with some flaws.

    Sometimes less is more. The new manual mechanic is fun, but it's also the default thing to do. The chase for the perfect combo is good, but when that ends OlliOlli 2 doesn't do much to provide meaningful choices to the players. It's still a great skate game, able to capture the spirit of the sport, but it could have done "less".
