Solid combat mechanics, but a little too light on content to justify full price.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is a shooter that you shouldn't miss. The excellent campaign and fun online modes guarantee hundreds of hours of entertainment and fun.

A decent tactical turn-based game with some rogue-like elements, made great by a superlative, and pervasive, lovecraftian atmosphere.

Mortal Shell is a soulslike that knows how to create the right atmosphere. The combat system is interesting, innovative in some ways, but the game still suffers from some technical problems that can arbitrarily vary the difficulty of the game, from time to time.

If you like Contra, you can't go wrong with Mercenary Kings. By adding the loot, Tribute changes slightly a working formula and respects Konami's legacy. Shooting is addictive, the action is fast-paced and the pixel art, made by Paul Robertson, is simply wonderful.

Jurassic World Evolution 2 is a visually gorgeous game marred by a very bad case of micromanagement excess. Dinosaurs are great, there is a lot of content and the overall idea is very good, but there is just to much busywork being forced upon the player to enjoy the experience fully.

Hyrule Warriors is a guilty pleasure for every Zelda fan with a bit of an open mind: if you're not a die-hard integralist of the saga, you will probably enjoy this unconventional and unique twist on the legendary saga.

With its abundance of playable content and a very attractive setting such as the island of Oʻahu, The Crew Motorfest attempts to chase the success of Forza Horizon 5 by proposing the same structure proposed by the racing game developed by Playground Games. The result is all in all positive, although Ivory Tower's gaming experience fails to stand out for originality or being qualitatively flawless.

If you are looking for an atmospheric VR survival horror with a beautiful ghost-story setting and prodigious sound design, Wraith: The Oblivion - Afterlife is the game for you.

With its old-school mechanics and feel, ShootMania Storm will be welcomed by all those players who are looking for a no-frills jump-and-gun experience. Simple and highly competitive, it might be a bit too hardcore for some, with its strong focus on the e-sport scene.

A well-executed psychological horror game that looks beyond the glossy surface of the film industry to reveal its compromises.

Paper Mario: Color Splash is an engrossing journey and a funny and colorful game. It plays a lot like Sticker Star, but does everything better.

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.

A sci-fi indie game with enjoyable gameplay and truly excellent direction: it’s a shame about the side quests, which aren’t quite up to par, and the lack of originality in the narrative.

A really old school soccer game: it’s not perfect, but it’s fun and reminds you the good old Kick Off era, and that’s a good thing.

Firewatch is a little, fascinating adventure, that fail to fully satisfy its potential.

A peculiar and quite odd platformer, with great visuals and a not-so-easy to master control system. Despite this though is a good game, able to ensure a fair amount of fun and playtime.

An interesting beat'em up that introduces some very cool ideas in a very brutal way. It's an engrossing trip of violence, albeit a lonely one.

A very short full game, yet a super-satisfying prologue: don't look for the full body of The Phantom Pain in Ground Zeroes, you will find only its promising ghost structure.

Another great game from one of the best JRPG series of these last few years and a solid new title for the PS Vita lineup.

A fun single player version of Ruzzle, with some pay to win issues, but still fun in its own way.

Wonderbook has finally another game! Moonbot Studios created an interactive cartoon aimed to the younger audience, with compelling and funny characters and a nice "film noir" plot. Game dynamics were more varied in Book of Spells, but here the gameplay is more active, with the book rarely sitting on the floor doing nothing. Pity that it is over soon: just a couple of hours to play it from start to end.

An interesting but flawed DLC that can provide some new fun adventures in Obsidian's sci-fi RPG.

A high quality sequel. It's not a revolution, but a stylish chapter in the series. Like Dead Space 2 before it, the game has survival horror segments and some more action-oriented moments, resulting in a varied and nicely paced adventure. The only misstep is to be found in a few missions on the icy planet, which are too long and not on par with the rest of the game. If you're looking for a pure survival horror game, look somewhere else, but if you liked the first two episodes, Dead Space 3 is a no-brainer.

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.

Unravel is a romantic and funny platform game in which emotions and beauty are tied tightly with simplicity.

Despite some shortcomings in "human" relationships with NPCs and an even lower than expected challenge rate, Fae Farm is an excellent exponent of the genre thanks in part to the magic element and the emphasis on exploration.

Good old FIFA, but bigger, better, smoother. It's underwhelming that EA Sports didn't go for a brand new experience for the debut of their "new IP", but at the same time FC 24 is a good game. On the structure of FIFA 23, EA Sports builds a series of improvements that increase the variety of the experience and introduce a compelling sense of uncertainty in the gameplay action. Very nice note: the management career is one of the best single player modes in years in the series.
