Mortal Kombat 1 is a true love letter to the 3D era of the saga. This is the Mortal Kombat 9 of this generation, and it must be valued as such. Although it is not sold as a celebration of legacy, it works very well as such and as a standalone saga title. It is a fairly complete video game whose main defects are not the game itself, but commercial decisions such as removing some fighters that are already included in the game to sell them separately. However, given the amount of content available and its quality, the fact that it will be updated over time and its overwhelming graphics make these outrages not hurt as much.

Perhaps, in some aspects the team has been too overzealous to streamline certain aspects of the first game, loosing a bit of the original ingenuity, but it can't be discussed that the result is a more polished and focused title.

Ori and the Blind Forest isn't a revolution in genre, but is brilliant in all mechanics and level design. A challenging, difficult and intelligent game with impressive visuals and a great soundtrack.

What a sequel should be: bigger, more ambitious, but with a solid grasp on what the original was and wanted to be. A true example of how to design a world and an infiltration game.

Disco Elysium is the triumphant return of the spirit of Planescape: Torment. A triumph for fans of interactive fiction and cRPGS, with a fascinating world and a exciting story that adapts to the character you want to be.

Almost every decision seems aimed at paving the way as much as possible, to pushing us always forward. To marvel us with its landscapes and intrigue us with its conflicts. It's what makes Xenoblade a compelling franchise, and Xenoblade Chronicles 3 more than lives up to it.

Dark Souls II is an ideal game for veteran players, but it's also a good chance for newcomers. From Software added some positive concessions while keeping the essence of the franchise. Action, exploration, replay value and great online experiences in another sweet nightmare. Prepare to die once again.

Max Payne 3 is one of the most important third-person shooters of this generation. It's frenetic and with a good replay value campaign, and has a direct and effective multiplayer and an incredible physics engine.

Pyre is Supergiant’s best work to date. A perfect mix of shocking writing, a memorable cast of characters and fantasy and balanced sport gameplay.

A must for those who played the original and a great find for those looking to embark on a grand journey alongside an unforgettable heroine.

Bloodborne offers a new point of view in the Souls franchise with a great offensive combat system, polished gameplay and full of frantic moments. Great level design, good visuals and brilliant OST for the first big PS4 exclusive.
