This new chapter is a great tribute to noir films and also has a great development of the story and great puzzles. A five-hours-long perfect mix that won't disappoint Sam and Max die-hard fans.

A great compilation that leaves nothing in the pipeline. However, it does not contribute anything if we already had everything beforehand.

Monster Hunter World is one of the best game of the year, and it's still solid, deep and challenging on PC. However, it has some important connection and stability problems.

System Shock is a worthy remaster of the original, bringing home all the atmosphere and flavor of a classic title without any of the rusty mechanics and controls that would bring it down in modern times.

A really good stealth game, with a great design of levels and mechanics totally oriented to infiltration, although with an AI that affects the final result.

It's difficult to get back the magic of the early days, but Square Enix tried its best in order to develop a storyline that's worth living. With an outstanding graphics engine, an impressive story and a quite interesting gameplay style, the only element that Final Fantasy XIII's lacking is a better mechanics and not the just go-on-forward gameplay style that it offers. Still, it's a worth-buying JRPG if you're a fan of the genre. And if you're not, just give it a try.

Here come the trolls. Fallen God is a superb expansion that adds worthy content to a good game.

A meditative game, with a strange pace and far from the the usual blockbuster. Intriguing and unique, but with some structural problems that tamper its potential.

Lies of P is a good Soulslike that follows the shadow of From Software’s work. The game shines when shows it’s own identity (bosses, for example), but it is a short time compared with the rest of the adventure.

With a inspired recreation with voxels of a futurist city, great ambiance and a interesting story, Cloudpunk is worth checking out.

The sequel in this crossover between the two popular puzzle franchises offers a wide variety of modes for single and multiplayer which result in a title with plenty of hours of fun in return.

The epic world of The Dark Eye arrives ten years later to our PC. Based on a board RPG game, Drakensang features some interesting ideas that bring back to life some of the best moments of the classic. Featuring ideas from Baldur's Gate and Neverwinter Nights franchise, the game packs a good set of rules with good-looking graphics and nice sound. At the end, it doesn't get to be a high budget production, but still gives the player great moments and great value that is worth the money.

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney: Spirit of Justice is probably the most effective game in the whole series. It provides an engaging story that answers most of the questions from Trials and Tribulations. Despite its flaws, a remarkable purchase.

Quotation forthcoming.

We are Sex Bob-Omb! Even without new features, the wait was worth it. A must have for fans of Scott Pilgrim and one of the best video game adaptations of all time.

Arcade racing game with ATVs as the starring roles. Clean, soft and detailed graphics with a nice taste in stage and acrobatics design. The ability to play online along with 15 more people is its strongest point, though the core mechanic of the game itself proves to addictive on its own, being entertaining and spectacular as few others. Should it have more variety in vehicles to play with, it could even stand up to Motorstorm 2.

Just as the PC version, Torchlight is a fun experience, with a lot of exploring, looting, combating and side-questing. It lacks a multiplayer coop mode, it has some framerate issues and it's rather short by genre's standards, but it's an interesting game overall. Recommended for hardcore action-RPG fans.

Echoes of Time is a useless waste of time in Wii. You better expend your money in the NDS version, because this is just a 1:1 port of the handheld that has nothing remarkable at all. We will have to wait till Crystal Bearers comes out to the scene by the end of this year.

Even with some new touches and a increased difficulty, there are little changes in this sequel, which is probably the big problem here. The game keeps being as charming and enjoyable as the first one, so it´s perfect for those who love LocoRoco, but it lacks the sense of surprise and discovering of the first one.

R-Type and R-Type II, two classics coin-ops, are together in R-Type Dimensions. Two graphics modes: original 2-D and all new 3-D in high definition. Game modes can be played as single player or multiplayer missions, either locally or over Xbox LIVE. A good retro pack with reminds the quality of this Shoot'em Up.

Dead Island is a great game. It has many flaws in its visuals, and the first-person gameplay is hard to understand at first. But Dead Island delivers a big open world RPG game, with 4 player coop and many things to do on the island. Horror movie lovers and RPG lovers should give it a try.

Hyrule Warriors offers massive battles in the Zelda universe, with an extra layer of quality over the normal Dynasty Warriors entries.

With an incredibly eye for polish and simplification, Gaming Minds Studio has created a magnificently accessible game that unfortunately is not equally complex.

F1 2013 keeps the pace of last year. The Classic Edition is much better, because the standard edition is highly trimmed. Good job for Codemasters, but a season low risk, transition to next year and next-gen.

Pure Suda, Killer is Dead is a really good action game with lots of flavor and many of the elements that have made this director special.

Enter the Gungeon offers a new way to understand the rogue-like games, being more dependent on the player skill than focusing on the item drops. It has perfect gunplay and a cute game design, and even if it's not as good as The Binding of Isaac or Nuclear Throne, it comes close to them.

A warm visual novel about the small but important things of life, full of humanity and great characters. Original, well written and highly enjoyable.

As a sandbox game, State of Decay is not very impressive. But a survival game with an apocalyptic and zombies setting is pretty awesome. Combat, exploration and good community sense make for the most ambitious game for the XBLA in a long time.

If you are tired of Tower Defense games, think again, Trendy Entertainment shows there is still a lot of potential in this concept, offering a great mix with ARPG concepts which shines the most in cooperative mode.

These days, when Japan RPG titles are struggling to survive against the Western RPG front, the old school feeling is more than welcome. This is what Namco Bandai has done: Looking back to a not-too-distant good old times and bringing us back one of the best Tales ever made. Add to the mix a reasonable price, a sequel and min +70, max +150 hours of quests, Overworld Maps, Cities, Dungeons and some HD anime cutscenes, and you have a good offering if you like the genre or just the Tales series.

Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney proves, with decisive evidence, that it never gets old. This remaster gives a nice glow-up in graphics and music and gameplay feels graciously adapted with some sacrifices.

Super Ultra Dead Rising 3 Arcade Remix Hyper Edition EX Plus Alpha is pure fanservice. Simple and effective gameplay, has a great co-op mode and has also a lovely soundtrack.

Saviorless is a 2D game with hand-drawn designs that starts off calm, focused on the same concept of Narrative. Little by little its difficulty increases and, by the time you are aware, there it is, showing its teeth, making you sweat with every jump and every blow. And you become desperate like you couldn't imagine when you started your journey. Keep going. When you get to the end you will know that all the blood, sweat and tears were worth it.

A different kind of narrative adventure that mixes historical and fictional characters in an interesting story. The Mad Ones is a promising start for the total of five chapters that The Council will have, having a good duration and introducing the new RPG based mechanics that can make the game unique.

DiRT 5 does not bring anything revolutionary to the arcade driving genre, but it does manage to set the saga in a territory where no one can doubt its existence. DiRT is still DiRT, an episode that takes the best of the first three numbered installments and does not forget to provide the excellent set design of the Rally side. This anarchic philosophy is enjoyed at the controls, but it suffers from a series of technical problems and graphic finishes that are below expectations. A remarkable title specially designed for lovers of the saga and four wheels, but which fails to establish itself as a benchmark in its genre.

It's portal but now you can rewind some boxes to solve creative and funny puzzles. The Entropy Centre evolves constantly to surprise you on each level until his last minutes.

Gameplay remains solid, with small additions that hardcore players will appreciate, but the lack of real innovation and the limited evolution of some modes are starting to weigh on what remains, despite everything, the best sports simulation game on the market.

Quotation forthcoming.

Better, longer, more diverse and much more intense. The sequel of PixelJunk Shooter honors its name with a new focus on action without losing the essence of what made the first one so great.

Obsidian doesn't produce the prettiest games, or the ones with the most impressive production values, but if there is one thing this studio does very well it's writing and they give another lesson of that with Alpha Protocol, inventing a solid, interesting and intriguing story in a world of spies and conspiracies. But beyond the quality, the most impressive thing is how the studio has managed to integrate decisions with story in a convincing way, creating a game where different choices, playstyles and attitudes have a direct impact on the narrative.

LEGO Dimensions is the biggest game in the whole franchise so far due to the quantity of content it offers to the players; however, this is also the most expensive one. Enjoyable from the very start.

Endless Legend is one of the best turn-based 4X games currently available. It mixes classical mechanics and new original components in a nice graphic and colorful environment while offering numerous options to users. Although some aspects would require a bit more variety, it's a perfect deal for the fans of 4X games. If empire building is your thing, you'll need to play it.

Aside of being visually remarkable, Oil Rush is a clever and elegant strategy game that combines RTS and Tower Defense mechanics to create an interesting hybrid, not as demanding as a RTS, but more active and dynamic than TD, reaching an attractive and very well executed middle point.

The line between an outstanding game and a very powerful game but without shine is in this Spec Ops. The story of Walker, Adams and Lugo is deep and interesting, as are the situations they will be exposed too. But the multiplayer is not very inspired and other areas have shortcomings.

Is PES2011 the best football game that we've seen so far on Wii's catalogue? Yes it's, but lacking any important addition to the style the franchise has been offering for more than three years. Pro Evolution needs something new, but still it's impossible not to fall under its unique football spirit.

Mega Man makes a comeback that feels natural, fun and great. 30 years later, the formula still works and it's as fun as ever, and the new additions work perfectly in the mix. It's not as inspired as other main entries of the franchise, but it's a good testament that Mega Man still has a lot of life in his circuits.

The Evil Within is a varied, deep, challenging and long game. Shinji Mikami and Tango Gameworks scare us, they mix puzzles and third person shooting in a reborn survival horror that is visually poor. The Keeper, the Alpha mastodon and other ugly deformed will make you have nightmares.

Ender Magnolia: Bloom in the Mist is a safe bet for both Ender Lilies fans and any player who loves the metroidvania genre. A continuous experience with respect to its predecessor, with a more narrative and somewhat more accessible approach, but equally polished in each and every one of its sections. As in the first part, the studio hits the mark by offering a very satisfying experience at the controls. Despite presenting a level design that is not too intricate, it is still a clear candidate for metroidvania of the year, at the expense of what Hornet has to say, if Silksong arrives in time for GOTY 2025, of course.

Capcom and Marvel were the most ambitious crossover and this collection proves it. Modern gameplay sits well with those old-time arcades.

The Strider franchise rises in the XXI century, thanks to a game that will undoubtedly be one of the downloadables of 2014. Game development is inspired by the best Metroid and Castlevania bidimensional games, resulting in an essential one.

The Vanishing of Ethan Carter stands between David Lynch's Twin Peaks and a Lovecraft story in terms of narrative but also offers solid gameplay mechanics. It's not a very long game (around four hours) but if you loved Gone Home, this is a game that you definitely have to try.

Ancestors of Legacy is an entertaining RTS in which the tactical aspects are enhanced and the management ones are automated so that the user focuses only on the planning and development of the battles. The limitation of units means that the movements have to be measured very carefully. There are a lot of factors such as terrain, lighting and orientation of the units that affect the development of battles.

Only the on-line modes and the Davis Cup separate it from the previous games of the series. SEGA must think about where they want to take the saga, because the stagnation can start being dangerous.

Good adaptation and much new content. Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate uses both screens and capabilities of 3DS and Wii U, but it's the same hilarious and addictive game from Wii with many extras. The HD doesn't look good and retains some mistakes.

Anachronistic both in a good and a bad way, Yooka-Laylee recaptures the charm of the 32-bit era collectathon platformers. It definitely is rough in some places, and the overall design would benefit from a little more polish, but it's also a love letter to a forgotten genre that sets a solid starting point for Playtonic Games.

A fun an interesting JRPG with tons of content and world with a life of its own -- Yo-Kai Watch sets a new universe that young fans will enjoy from the beginning to the end.

Despite the technical flaws (horrible camera, not so impressive visuals, bad voice over...), Star Ocean is a game that delivers a great experience, thanks to its fun and deep gameplay, the many things we can do, and the development of characters. Unfortunately, the story is not as charming as it should have been.

The new season of the NBA has started, and EA Sports offers us a great way of having the best basketball of the world in our homes.

Great visuals, good gameplay (arcade-driven) and a lot of game modes, including the NBA Live 365, which updates constantly in the game.

Child of Eden is probably what Rez was meant to be. Regardless of some minor issues, Mizuguchi's new musical shooter on rails is the best of what Kinect has accomplished so far.

An excellent ARPG that takes the best elements of Divine Divinity and updates them in a imaginative game full of flavor and personality.

Rockstar invites us to the great city of Los Angeles. You are a newbie who tries to climb the ladder of success in the world of urban racing.

Two Worlds II has many faults, but it's a much better game than the original. Its visuals are not that great, the gameplay is extremely basic and it has nothing new or to be really excited about, but it's a fun game that will delight hardcore RPG fans.

Shadowrun: Dragonfall is a very good campaign and finally shows some of the potential that Dead Man's Switch forgot along the way. The new story offered by Harebrained Schemes does not only provide great content to the game but also opens the door to users who want to unleash their imagination. Although its overall image is blurred by its price inexplicably equal to the original content, Shadowrun Returns still is -possibly- the best adaptation of the world of Shadowrun to date.

Two years later, Assassin's Creed tries again to make real those promises from Ubisoft, and prove itself as a better game than it was. The truth is that, despite the Renaissance setting, the vivid locations and the historical landmarks, the new features added don't really improve the sequel: the same repetitive mechanics remain, as the flawed enemy AI, a rough combat system and moments of frustration coming from issues with the camera and the control response in the platform sections. Assassin's Creed II it's still a good game but far from the masterpiece Ubisoft has been promising.

Space Marine is a great first try for Relic in its attempts to move Warhammer 40,000 to a different genre. The combat system is very satisfactory and perfectly executed thanks to great work with animation and sounds effects and the artistic work recreating a Forge World is remarkable. It lacks a bit of audacity and ambition both in campaign and multiplayer, but it's a really promising first entry ina more action focused conception of this universe.

One year after its appearance on consoles, Ace Combat Assault Horizon comes back on PC with the same intensity, pace and action, but its weaknesses are still there.

South of the Circle is a little love story in tumultuous social and geopolitical years. A game accessible to all types of audiences, whether they are players or not. The empathetic capacity that video games offer benefits what could have been a movie or a television series. Exciting story about the labyrinths of memory with a more radical cinematic influence than other games that use it regularly.

A nice take of a classic formula. Perfectly executed, true to its roots and made in a way that it feels modern and approachable. The Legend of Grimrock is a joy for lovers of Dungeon Crawlers, but it welcomes any type of player as long as he has patience.

Escape from Tarkov is considered the pioneer of the extraction shooter genre. One of the longest-running games in the Early Access program, it released its final version in November 2025, along with the highly anticipated 1.0 version, marking the end of several years of genuine success. It has its rough edges and a few bugs that shouldn't be there, but the overall experience is unparalleled. It's the most hardcore game in the genre. It demonstrates that there's a large player base willing to face the toughest gameplay conditions. The reward tastes sweeter than in other games, no matter how many times you fall. No one knows what the future holds, but Escape from Tarkov certainly has another decade of enjoyment ahead.

With a much better tutorial at the beginning and the incredible Pinata Vision, Trouble in Paradise is the best simulator for Xbox 360, and everyone can enjoy it thanks to its simplicity.

Minecraft Nintendo Switch Edition borrows the best of the handheld versions and the possibilities of its console siblings, making it a superb version a game that almost everyone can enjoy even if you have player dozens of hours in the past.

Bound is a great work from Plastic with a beautiful world and history.

Just like inject some life into a paint, each location of this Dark Eye: Chain of Satinav is truly a work of art.

A great graphic adventure that could've been a masterpiece of the genre.
