    A visually awesome experience with fascinating landscapes and great animations, but a little bit on the boring side gameplay-wise. More variety in the combat mechanics and some more care on camera and map design would have greatly benefited the game.

    Just Dance 2017 fine-tunes the series mechanics with an updated tracklist but without adding great new features; it's still a very good party game, while it won't satisfy those willing to play it solo.

    The new features introduced in this edition of EA Sports FC 25, first and foremost the Rush mode and FC IQ technology, breathe life into the title and forcefully push it in a new direction. Issues are not missing, especially in the AI and online challenges, but even so, the game is a must-have title for fans of the saga.

    Mafia: The Old Country is a pleasantly surprising release that offers around sixteen hours of solid entertainment. A well-paced story and detailed setting help it stand out, despite major drawbacks like repetitive knife-based fights and poor enemy AI. While not a top-tier title, its budget price and overall coherence make it a worthwhile option in today’s gaming landscape.

    A nice "word building" Limbo-like platform game, with great art style and intriguing puzzles, but with imprecise and frustrating platform controls.

    Another great game in the LEGO series, capable of entertaining both kids and grown-ups and sporting enhanced graphics. We're just a little disappointed in its small longevity, about 7 hours to complete, and the developers stubbornness in not providing an online co-op option.

    S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl feels like a two-sided coin. On the one hand it offers one of the best open world experiences to be found in an FPS, but on the other it has significant technical problems. We still recommend playing it and not being put off by some of the obstacles, because it is an experience worth trying.

    Characterized by an 80's look, Hyperdrive Massacre is a hectic and bizarre space car battle party game; with friends - and multiple controllers - at home it becomes very absorbing and thrilling, but otherwise it won't have much use due to lack of online multiplayer support.

    A meaningful and short adventure, capable of sensibly touching complex topics like loneliness and depression, in a colorful 2D world. Suggested to everyone who likes thought-provoking narrative games.

    GRID Legends lives of ups and downs: it makes decisive steps forward compared to the previous episode, with a good technical realization and a frantic and fun driving model, but it fails to differentiate itself enough when switching cars, flattening the gaming experience. It's suitable mainly for those who are looking for entertainment without too many frills, but less recommended for those seeking something deeper and more refined.

    In a dystopian future where human dramas mix to the search for a better life, State of Mind tells us the touching and surprises-filled tale of two fathers in search for the truth about their families. Great storytelling and brilliant low-poly environments are the foundation for a satisfying adventure game whose only downsides are its too inexpressive and stiff, but very well characterized, characters. Definitely suggested for lovers of adventure games and dramatic sci-fi/cyberpunk tales.

    More a mere porting than a proper remaster, Saints Row IV: Re-Elected brings all the original game's humor and over-the top action on Xbox One. Its lackluster technical production, however, makes it a suitable buy only for those who missed it during the previous generation.

    A fascinating voyage in the Tarahumara culture and Chihuahua environments, partially offset by a bit tedious fights and too-restricted exploration.

    A hilarious physics-based puzzle game, especially if played in co-op with a friend. Creative puzzles, rich environments and odd situations distinguish this game.

    Even if Marvel super heroes are very popular, this game revealed to be a very niche one, mainly due to the inexplicable lack of any Italian translation even in the game menus, making it unapproachable by people without a good English understanding.

    A fascinating jump in gaming past, with a varied gameplay and a pleasant art style. Unluckily it proved to be quite frustrating too, due to several bad choices in game design.

    Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 offers us a good advancement over the previous chapter, with a surprising storyline made both of original content and well known saga elements. It still needs to improve its camera management, but it's definitely a worthy buy for any Dragon Ball fan.

    MotoGP 17 feels a bit outdated due to its underwhelming graphics and some A.I. problems, but it delivers lots of content for every motorcycle racing lover.

    MotoGP 18 feels almost like reboot for Milestone's series, thanks to a brand new engine and renewed driving model and play modes. It looks like the devs didn't have enough time to completely fulfill their vision though, and we're left with a good game but with wide margins for improvement.

    Team Sonic Racing sports the classic kart racer gameplay but with an added layer of tactics due to the new team play mechanics. It's less varied and modern than Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed, but thanks to many gaming options and contents and a great technical production it can definitely be considered one of the best kart racers around.

    In MotoGP 23 we find again the series' solid driving model, now further improved especially in the braking area. This, however, fails to compensate for major content and technical issues, making it difficult to recommend buying the game for now.

    Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot nails the structure and features of a perfect anime-based action RPG, but it lacks in content and execution, with too many uninteresting side quests and underdeveloped features. It still remains a great Dragon Ball experience allowing us to live Goku's and friends adventures better than before though, so fans of the anime won't be let down.

    Eko Software's new game fails in successfully leveraging the huge Warhammer lore and it also feels underwhelming as a pure Diablo-like game, with an unsatisfying looting system and several technical problems. Where it does good is in its immediate gameplay and local co-op, but it definitely isn't enough for a Warhammer-branded game.

    Atomic Heart is a surprising and often impressive game, with brilliant technical/artistic values and a varied gameplay capable of mixing many different elements. It manages to stay intriguing and interesting for all it remarkable length, even if it suffers of balancing issues and of a lacklustre and forgettable open world. If you love narrative FPS experiences, this is one not to miss.

    The Sojourn offers some complex and interesting first-person puzzles, but it all happens in a too repetitive world and without offering enough rewards for the player, with a very skinny plot. It's still a decent puzzle game, but it fails to be something really memorable.

    A frantic but too short and not so original platformer. You could enjoy playing it in co-op with a friend at home, though.

    King's Bounty II is a title that only strategy fans will really appreciate. Gameplay is satisfying, but it is nevertheless undermined by a disappointing technical aspect and many little ingenuities that make the experience slow and tedious and that, if solved, would greatly improve the quality of life of the game.

    Get Even results sometimes in too-slow storytelling and fails to provide a valuable shooter, stealth or even thriller experience, but it is redeemed by an adult and surprising story with breathtaking plot twists and by a brilliant audio production.

    Pure Farming 2018 offers good and varied locations with an immediate gameplay, but an unsatisfying technical production and some controls and AI problems make it a letdown for lovers of the genre.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    One of the best Xbox One launch exclusives and a great fighting game, with a very good combat system and probably the best tutorial section ever seen in the genre. Our only complaints are about the thin characters line-up and the absence of a classic Arcade mode.
