    Available on PC since November 2018, Leisure Suit Larry Wet Dreams Don't Dry is a nice tip of the hat to the old games. The point'n click gameplay is solid, and if there's nothing new, it still all feels fun and tight.

    Layton's Mystery Journey: Katrielle and the Millionaire's Conspiracy is a good installment in the series even if we would have loved a more breathtaking main quest, but on the other hand the content is pretty impressive.

    Sadly, the much anticipated Mafia 3 doesn't live up to the hype. The great story and background are ruined by the absolute lack of polish, be it on the technical standpoint with appalling graphics, or the AI that's completely useless.

    Even if it's the first game announced on PS5, Godfall is far from a system seller. Sure, the graphics are appealling, but most of what's left after is pretty disappointing, from the poor story to the repetitive gameplay. At least the fights are enjoyable, and the lore has potential.

    The Switch version of DOOM is actually a pleasant surprise with an unaltered gameplay that's still incredibly effective on a small form factor machine. On the other hand, the games boasts ugly graphics, suffers from low framerate at times and has a premium price tag compared to the other platforms.

    In the absence of a new episode of Skyrim, or even an opportunistic remaster, Avowed immediately positioned itself as a perfect replacement candidate. It must be said that for years, the Obsidian Entertainment studio has shown its appetite for old-school RPGs, with a strongly assumed Bethesda-style coating and formula. But from Skyrim, Avowed doesn't borrow much, except for its old school, so 2011 side, which could be likened to a comforting feeling for the most nostalgic players. Because despite appearances and an intriguing first part of the adventure, Avowed subsequently reveals its true face, that of being an RPG for dummies, or a chatty and more complex than average action-adventure game. It is somewhere between the two and a bit nowhere, since it tries to hit both categories at once. The result is a game that displays some pretty blatant game design inconsistencies, with on one hand more flexibility in its class and progression systems, and on the other a completely frozen world where interactions have been reduced to next to nothing and NPCs reduced to inert and uninteresting green plants. We still manage to have fun with its more open combat system, but we have to get past the ultra-rigid animations that take us back to another time. The lack of staging and the slightly too rainbow artistic direction also contributed to spoiling the party and it's a shame because Avowed had a great story to tell us. An adventure that will find a nostalgic or unobservant audience, but a game that will not go down in history, that's for sure.

    Worms Revolution remains as fun as the previous titles of the IP, adding some new features like a shuffle mode, water-based worlds, and classes for our worms. And yet, Team 17 suffers from a lack of ambition, Worms Revolution being a shy evolution of Worms Battle Islands. That's why players that are fond of the IP won't be surprised by the new weapons or some levels with good ideas of interaction.

    Released two years after War for Cybertron, Transformers : Fall of Cybertron had plenty of time to correct the mistakes of the first episode. However, instead of doing so, the developers prefered to work on the different robots players could play with in the sequel. Thereby, featuring a varied gameplay, Fall of Cybertron appears to be a good game to blow off some steam, just hoping the next sequel will be better.

    Being as good as the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions, Street Fighter X Tekken PS Vita is a pleasant surprise. The famous fighting title developed by Capcom manages to offer intuitive games controls, and interesting gameplay ideas thanks to the use of the Cross Link and Cross Platform systems. Already successful on consoles, Street Fighter X Tekken is clearly the best fighting game released on an handheld console to date.

    If you didn't have the chance to play Hyrule Warriors and if you love musou games, then go for this 3DS version. It gathers everything that worked on Wii U and even adds new features and new content. You will need a New 3DS to enjoy it fully though.

    This first try is an interesting one, but it's far from being a perfect shot. Mordheim : City of the Damned doesn't lack any depth, that's for sure. But the very hard first missions and the disastrous interface make it a game we can recommend only to the fans.

    Mario Strikers Battle League Football does not disappoint in its gameplay. The controls seem basic but they are extremely deep in reality. But the game has serious problems which are its lack of content and a big concern for clarity on the ground. Online gaming has also been botched.

    The best thing about Conqueror's Blade is mostly the distance taken with other F2P games as it's still very enjoyable even if you're not buying. At least until lvl 30 where we start to meet players that have paid.

    With this fourth DLC, Destiny keeps on its tracks, and even if the new content is welcomed, there's nothing really exciting. The whole experience seems to go around in circles. Clearly Bungie's attention is now on the sequel.

    NBA 2K21 stays a good basketball game, but it lacks any really new features, while the shooting system is pretty poor, even since it was patched. Still, 2K Game's offering is one of the best in this field.

    For 2022, Nintendo has some new ambition for the Pokémon license! Pokémon Legends Arceus gives us a great semi open-world, which adapts well to the Pokémon formula. On the other hand, graphically, it's poor, simplistic and it feels like a game that is 15 years behind.

    Strafe is a good FPS but it's more of an old game than an old-school game. Seasoned FPS players will like it but newcomers and young people will surely find it too difficult, and too frustrating.

    The Gunk is a very good independent title that offers graphics that have nothing to envy to big AAA productions. It's a shame though that the game only lasts 5 hours, that the gameplay doesn't evolve much and that it lacks epic moments. Fortunately, it's released on Xbox Game Pass and that fixes a lot of issues.

    Pokémon Sword / Pokémon Shield hasn't brought much to the series in spite of sky high expectations. It's still an enjoyable ride along, in spite of the heavy clipping and the lack of challenge.

    Double Helix Games had to do something big for this brand new Killer Instinct, something that sticks with the codes of today's fighting games. They took a lot to Street Fighter, it's not genius, but you can feel the balance between old stuffs and new ones. It's fast and explosive but Killer Instinct hits far too hard in the wallet.

    If Konami still needs to learn some things from FIFA, PES 2013 is clearly heading the right way. However, at this time, PES 2013 doesn't have the necessary keys to offer a gaming experience as complete as Electronic Arts' IP, especially regarding the graphic aspects. The next title, coming to the next-gen consoles, should be able to counter FIFA success, if Konami remains hardworking.

    After the failure of the last LEGO installment, what a thrill to play this one. LEGO : The Hobbit smells like déjà-vu but the receipt is kind of efficient. It's a great entertainment and it will give some good stuff to Tolkien and LEGO fans, despite of the recurring technical problems and repetitive gameplay.

    Tales of Zestiria is a good J-RPG, based on a deep and clever fighting system, and offering a nice and classic journey. But maybe Bandai Namco should now let some features and some techs behind to begin a really new era with its IP.

    Filled with goodwill, The Technomancer is one of the best RPG from Spiders, but the overall quality and the lack of budget take their toll on the final result which only offers a mild feeling.

    The main quality of The Elder Scrolls Online is the giving of a good answer to the fans asking for an MMO Elder Scrolls for years. But objectively, it's not the best MMORPG around, nor the best episode of the series. Consequently, the game has good moments but it never enters the unforgettable kind. And the subscription seems very high at the end of the day.

    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.

    Clearly not as good as a Call of Duty regarding its main campaign, or a Battlefield regarding the multiplayer modes, Warfighter remains a good game despite not being as innovative as players wanted it to be. Frosbite 2 may propose a pleasant visual experience, especially on PC, but it is not enough to create any form of enthusiasm, especially with its linear storyline. However, players will eventually find some kind of pleasure with its well-balanced and explosive gameplay.

    Yes, Onimusha is an old game, and to be honest it shows a lot with fixed cameras and a very rigid gameplay. On the other hand it's still a game to be highly recommend if you haven't done it yet, and if you can cope with the PS2 era technical side of things.
