While not without flaws, some more glaring than others, Trepang2 still offer some of the most intense and visceral combat you can find in an FPS and that is more than enough to make for a solid experience.

A valuable collection to return to the early 2000s and (re)discover timeless classics.

Olija is a well-made and enjoyable action-adventure; lacking, however, of qualitative touches able to distinguish it from a tough competition. It remains, in any case, a well-made and enjoyable game.

Shadow Labyrinth is a bold experiment that only partially succeeds: a compelling and demanding metroidvania, held back by frustrating design choices and an underwhelming narrative.

A simple and fun Action RPG, a little too hasty in the narrative but supported by well-characterized characters.

On a pure gameplay level, NBA 2K25 is "The" basketball simulation. Too bad about 2 K's "vampire" attitude that sucks money in online modes. Like it or not, you must make in-game purchases to compete; the gameplay and graphics innovations convinced us, somewhat less so those related to game modes: the Steph Era is cute, and The W has unexpressed potential. The rest has not changed much from last year.

There's a good game in ReCore. It's just buried under a bunch of imperfections and horrible loading times.

An interesting shooter that reminds one of Italian noir with some Tarantino's ideas. A good indie, but some unnecessary difficulty spikes ruin the overall flow.

Fantasy Life is charming little action RPG. In many ways it looks like a Monster Hunter with a less steep learning curve and a wider range of activities to perform, but in the end it stands on its own thanks to the nice class system. Too bad that few cumbersome choices in the game design, the relatively poor technical compartment and the annoying story keep the game from reaching better highs.

Outlast is an horror game with the great virtue of creating fear and terror with simple but highly effective weapons like dark, scary sounds, desperate escape from mad psychos and perfect locations for the purpose, but lacks a little bit in gameplay variety.

Nothing really new under the sun of TrackMania 2, just an artificial Stadium of arcade precision and a natural Valley of dirty driving. After Canyon, two extra physical environments and different driving styles to race offline and online.

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.

Joe Danger Infinity is once again fun, challenging and full of tracks, vehicles and unlockable characters. The truth, however, is that the formula, basically the same of the Touch version, it starts to lose its bite.

Pokémon Legends: Z-A isn't the break with the past that some might have hoped for, but it's a good Pokémon game that introduces a fun new battle system to the series and marks the return of Mega Evolutions, in a setting that will be familiar to fans and welcoming to anyone experiencing the world of Pokémon for the first time. The game suffers a bit from its cross-gen nature and its Nintendo Switch origins in terms of graphics, but this time around performance is not to be faulted. Pokémon Legends: Z-A is a great game, then, with many strengths, and it also has the value and quality of ending on a high note. For this very reason, however, it's even more disappointing to see the shortcomings of yet another Pokémon game that fails to reach the excellence it perhaps could and should have aspired to.

Beside the “gore-galore” there's a solid beat'em up, charming and fun. If you're a Mortal Kombat addicted you'll get tons of fun, but beware: searching for online players can be painful and the net-code is ugly. Stick to the traditional head to head and everything will be fine.

Shadow Warrior is a retro-shooter with all the right stuff we expect from such a title. Hordes of enemies, demonic creatures, Duke Nukem humor, a lot of blood and mangled limbs. If you settle for this, the reboot by Flying Wild Hog works like a charm and compared to other similar operations, the graphics are far from poor or sketchy.

We can’t say anything bad about the beauty of Dishonored, but for this current-gen version we would have expected a better graphical treatment.

Codemasters is back on the track with a classic F1 car and the same old "almost arcade" Formula (pun intended). The engine's still good, but the car's age is starting to show.

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.

WWE 2K26 is loud, excessive, and delightfully crazy. Visual Concepts has chosen chaos as its mantra—certified by the presence of CM Punk—and the result is a game packed with content and new features. The problem is that beneath all this spectacle, the engine creaks, and some gameplay systems feel very old.

If the game had had more precise controls and a more varied gameplay it could been great game instead an ok one.

Even though we are talking about a Flappy Bird clone this is a good one, nice to see and more accessible to play.

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.

In this game you can be a goat. With a jetpack. And earn a Michael Bay achievement if you blow up stuff. I really don’t think I need to be more specific (and persuasive) than that.

Etrian Odyssey Nexus is a bittersweet farewell to the series as we know it. It does not add much content to the classic formula, but gives to the players the biggest Etrian Odyssey adventure to date.

The Tengu’s Disciple is a beefy DLC for its price: the new missions are long and, most of the times, challenging, and the staff has many tools to play with. If you are ready for some serious grind, this expansion can keep you busy for hours and hours.

In conclusion, we can say that Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac is a successful title that deserves to be re-released on the market, not only to encourage new generations to rediscover the iconic character of Pac-Man, but also to entertain long-time fans with a product that demonstrates a certain level of quality. It may not be the best platform game you'll play in the coming years, but as a re-release of an old classic, it's a remarkable achievement. What's more, Pac-Man's return to the screen is always welcome. The competitive price will facilitate sales, and we are sure to see it offered for free with various subscriptions on the market in the coming years. Namco Bandai has created a product that guarantees hours of quality entertainment for gamers of all kinds.

A nice and short first person puzzle game which provides nice puzzles and inspiring visuals while not managing to fulfill the excellent premise of its setting.
