    Far from being a joke like Goat Simulator, Maneater is a true RPG with good visuals, a nice storyline, and everything to have good times. Beware, it can be quite repetitive at times.

    As often with light remasters, Mafia II: Definitive Edition offers marginal improvements over the genuine game, making it less attractive for those who already own it. For the others, it's a no brainer: this is the version to go for.

    Oddworld: Munch's Odyssey is almost as good as when it first came out, but the visuals are quite dated, and it's a pity that no localization whatsoever is available, so go away if you don't speak English.

    Fury Unleashed is a very nice rogue-lite that enjoys a dynamic gameplay, lots of weapons ans bosses, and even a very well made storyline. A future hit once we get the promised coop mode.

    SnowRunner is a nice improvement from MudRunner, with more ground variety, and the introduction of snow. It still is for a specific audience though.

    With MotoGP 20, Milestone has improved a lot on the tire physics and the way they degrade, and offers a lot of content. But the 10 month or so of development time are showing through the sheer number of bugs, and the elements taken from Codemaster's F1 series.

    Final Fantasy VII: Remake is a fresh take on Square Enix's classic, with enough new stuff to bring in young gamers, and most of what made the game great over 20 years ago. A true "Remake."

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Remastered still proves that is has one of the best solo campaigns inspired from a Hollywood blockbuster. But without its co-op and multiplayer modes, the 25€ price tag feels a bit steep.

    If Resident Evil 3 is still a pretty good game, its content is way too weak and its multiplayer mode can't make up for the loss…Last year's Resident Evil 2 is way better, but the new Nemesis has its undeniable charm.

    Animal Crossing New Horizons is a good entry in the series with it's new features like terraforming and crafting, but overall it's not a revolution, and it surely won't convince gamers who dislike the IP.

    Warlords of New York is a welcome add-on to The Division 2, but it just feels like more of the same, which isn't surprising as the whole game already felt like a 1.5 version of the first opus. A worthy DLC, but not outlandish.

    One Punch Man : A Hero Nobody Knows is a very poor attempt at making a videogame out of this IP. The visuals are sub-par, the animations are appalling, the combat system is repetitive and the story mode feels dull. A game to avoid, even if you're a fan.

    Darksiders Genesis offers a very enjoyable gameplay that mixes Hack'n slash with Twin Stick Shooters elements. The game still suffers from a major lack of polish which shows in many areas.

    With inspiration taken from What Remains of Edith Finch or The Vanishing of Ethan Carter, The Suicide of Rachel Foster is clearly sub-par relative to those games, to the point where it's difficult to recommend it for any reason, even if the story isn't that bad.

    Journey to the Savage Planet feels a lot like Subnautica and No Man's Sky, but with its own twist. The exploration is good and the level-design is pretty good, even if the Humor is kinda special. Definitely a game that's worth its price.

    After the very good FighterZ, Dragon Ball Z Kakarot could have been a worthy RPG for the fans, but the game ultimately underperforms in too many areas to be of any interest to anybody but the most hardcore of Dragon Ball fans.

    Mosaic could have been a very good short animation movie, with it's great artistic touch and a nice story. As a videogame it's pretty lame as we're still looking for a gameplay. Proceed with caution, even if you love walking sims.

    Shenmue 3 is exclusively aimed at the most hardcore of nostalgic fans, who want this game more than their next breath of air. We find everything that was on the Dreamcast game, and nothing more, like if the last 20 years did not happen.

    John Wick Hex offers very good gameplay which focuses on tactics rather than action, which is a nice break from the movie, but the low budget has had profound effects on the graphics that feels like they're from an antique mobile game.

    Song of Horror is a good surprise with a creepy atmosphere and a very unpredictable foe that keeps you on your toes. The only worry is about the future chapters yet to be released, and the locked camera that feels quite old.

    Instead of improving Ghost Recon Wildland's mechanics, Ghost Recon Breakpoint tries to mix all the aspects of the trending genres, like survival, looting, RPG elements, crafting, and microtransactions. Overall the mix is way to messy to hook us up, and it feels like a badly-cooked meal.

    The Surge 2 is essentially the first game, but better, with more content and a gameplay that's still enjoyable if you like Souls-Like games. On the other hand, the visuals are quite dated, the camera isn't perfect and the story adds no value whatsoever.

    WRC 8 is a good rally game, especially if you like to have loads of official content, and an approach that's not as sim-oriented as DiRT Rally. We only regret that most of the new stuff is geared towards the management aspect of the game, and not the pure driving.

    Greedfall is the clearly the best game from Spiders to date with a good freedom given to the player, and a great lore. There are a few hiccups here and there, mainly due to the limited budget, but if you're ready to close your eyes, it's still a nice RPG.
