    Deadly Premonition 2 has technical problems, a design of yesteryear and several questionable points, but it's a game that stands out for more than the sum of its parts. This isn't a case of "so bad, it's good", it's good because of the inexplicable force that holds each of its sections together. In the end, Deadly Premonition 2 is an oasis of irreverence and rebellion in an industry that is sometimes quite comfortable with its molds. This game breaks them all, unpretentiously and honestly as no other.

    Carrion is a relatively short, positively memorable experience. Our odyssey as the monster attempting to flee from the mysterious installations shines with a formidable audiovisual design and fully original gameplay. It's cool to be the bad guy of the tale, sometimes.

    Paper Mario: The Origami King is made with care and love; it's clear that its developers know this universe perfectly and adore it as much as Mario fans. Despite some difficulty peaks, bosses are cleverly designed, they are visually striking and some even perform a memorable musical number. There is so much to love about this new Paper Mario and that's why we can't stop recommending it, even with its imperfections.

    Sucker Punch delivers an epic Samurai adventure that is constantly debating what kind of game it wants to be, just as its protagonist questions his own actions and responsibility. Ghost of Tsushima is the pinnacle of a genre represented by great exponents. However, the game not only does not seem to bring anything particularly new, but neither does it raise the bar or represent an evolution in open world games.

    Finding a reason to pay for Trackmania subscription will be difficult, even for fans. In technical terms, the game lives up to its name and it is good to have it downloaded to spend a few minutes on the track of the day or try to improve our records, challenging users from all over the world. As for the rest of the package, it offers a service that nobody asked for and that, in the long term, will end up taking the game off the tracks.

    Although it may seem that it lacks in content, there is much to enjoy in Mr. DRILLER DrillLand. It is a game that is pure joy and entertainment, proving that, when a game is well designed, no matter how old it gets: it always works.

    Blair Witch is, above everything else, an adventure full of good ideas. Despite some technical issues, it is a breath of fresh air, a first-person experience that does not fall into the cliché of being a jumpscare roller coaster or a simple horror walking simulator.

    Burnout Paradise Remastered offers the possibility of feeling the adrenaline and speed that we enjoyed so much a decade ago; And that is priceless.

    F1 2020 is the highest point of the series. What Codemasters shows with this game is that they also understood that they have a game on their hands and that it isn't wrong to make it more fun; that the rules can be slightly bent in pursuit of a more inclusive and more content product, without neglecting its essence.

    A game that shows that Virtual Reality is a great medium for superhero stories. The game mechanics are tied to the the very essence of the character effectively and it is a game with good ideas. Unfortunately, good intentions do not make a good game and this is why Iron Man VR falls short of other productions exclusive to the Playstation VR.

    Night Call works best when it allows us to relax and enjoy discovering the little stories hidden in Paris, some darker than others, and some even surreal and funny. The story and characters keep us engaged it is a highly recommended game for lovers of narrative experiences.

    Ruiner has a lot of very well-groomed aspects. The game isn't a prodigy, of course, but it knows its intentions very well and how to achieve them; it has a prodigious execution. The game's length is one of the few weak points not because of the extension itself but because of its abrupt ending.

    Ninjala is a pleasant surprise. I expected absolutely nothing from it due to its generic appearance, but I found myself playing until the wee hours of the morning, immersed in its spectacular fights. It takes lot of time to learn to play it, to read correctly the chaos that their confrontations seem to unfold, but once this obstacle is overcome, a bunch of great battles awaits us.

    Pokemon Sword/Shiled: Isle of Armor is the first piece of a whole called the Expansion Pass, and despite its incredible visuals and offering a new wilderness area, it's still relying on the next iteration to justify its price. Crown of Tundra comes later this year and its premise itself caught our eye from the very first moment. Island of Armor is just a way to prepare us for what is coming.

    SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom - Rehydrated gives us a good time. It is one of the best adaptations of a TV show into a video game, despite being a title that shows its age in several areas and that could have been better when it comes to a remake. But the charm of SpongeBob and his universe is still there.

    Although Valorant's life has only just begun, the feeling we have is that it's here to stay in the competitive FPS scene. It's a shooter that feels very good to play, that is very accurate and that, without being exactly original, It combines elements already established to give us a formula that is extremely successful.

    Summer in Mara is a charming idea buried under poor mission design, boring story and all kinds of small and medium bugs. It's quite possible that many of these problems are solved by multiple patches, but the core of the game is already compromised.

    It's a shame, but considering the current state of the game, it's hard to recommend West of Dead. Its amazing visuals along with the setting and soundtrack are not enough to overcome the frustration that the game achieves in every corner.

    Samurai Shodown is the reboot the saga needed and one of the best modern fighting games. It has what is needed to become a competitive title on a par with the best games in the genre. It doesn't have much content for those who enjoy single player, but it has a solid base and a balanced and original combat system.

    Desperados III is the prequel that this great franchise deserves. It's a game that completely grabs the player, from start to end: the moment I started the main story, I couldn't let it go until I finished it. Every detail on the map, every dialogue between the characters, everything about the game is enjoyable, almost to the extent that you feel just as another member of the gang.

    Beyond Blue is a short game. Very short, actually. Its central narrative can be overcome in just over three hours, and the additional content doesn't add much more. But it is worth playing it as an experience. it succeeds in delighting and amazing players by putting the ocean world right in the center of the stage. It makes us think about our actions and responsibilities as humans in relation to this unknown kingdom, sunk in the deep ocean.

    Evan's Remains is one of the little surprises of the year. A beautiful game in every way, with great puzzle design which, at the end of the day, leaves us with a memorable experience due to the story and its characters. I can only recommend it.

    The Last of Us Part II is a third person action game, a survival horror, an immersive sim, a walking Simulator, and snippets of so many others, all at the same time. Without the immensity of an open world, it masterfully emulates the sense of freedom, and without the classic features of an RPG, it has allowed us to make the characters our own. Or rather, the other way around. It is an evolution for the genre in terms of technical aspects and an exercise in maturity in terms of how it deals with its themes. Despite some sloppiness, it holds the highest of standards and sets the mold for what should be the next generation of AAA games.

    Clubhouse Games: 51 Worldwide Classics may not be the definitive party game; it may have show some obtuse design, but, with this game, Nintendo is adding another unique proposal to its catalog, with the potential to keep us entertained and occupied almost indefinitely. Naturally, I highly recommend it.

    Disintegration is a hybrid between FPS and RTS that ultimately fails to deliver a satisfying experience on both ends. Its uninspired singleplayer campaign is filled with technical issues during cinematics and during missions. I never felt like I was having fun while playing the same type of objectives over and over again. Not even the somewhat decent multiplayer modes can save Disintegration from falling short of its expectations.

    Those Who Remain can work if you are looking for simple scares.The atmosphere works well and puzzles are based on some very good concepts. But the rest of the elements simple ruin the experience, even when the game tries it hard to include story choices to be more complex. With so many other similar and better games out there, there is no reason to recommend it.

    Mortal Kombat 11 Aftermath succeeds in everything. The story is highly entertaining, the new characters are very interesting and even the free content adds much more to a game that already had many good elements. But nothing that can be said takes away the fact that Aftermath is expensive for those who already have the game. It is especially frustrating considering that there are more DLC characters in development, and that surely next year we will have a new collection that for $60 that includes everything again.

    Petroglyph Games and Lemon Sky Studios did a more than acceptable work in both the graphic and sound aspects of this remastered, polishing even the smallest detail and giving users the possibility to add content freely, where we will find an enormous amount of fresh stuff to try. We will, once again, put on our commander's uniform to solve international conflicts in the best warlike manner.

    Minecraft Dungeons is a missed opportunity in every sense. After playing the first map, the formula is constantly repeated, only differing in terms of colors and the paths to take. The main story goes completely unnoticed, to the point that you forget about the main goal. The best way to enjoy it is in co-op mode, because, once the story mode is over, it has nothing else that can surprise us.

    The Wonderful 101 Remastered is a game that definitely has style, personality, and attitude. However, during the process of leaving the WiiU behind, it has lost some of its charm. This is a remastering work that feels right, but it's also awkward sometimes due to how it solves some Wii U's features such as dual-screen mechanics.
