From a narrative standpoint, this is definitely the DLC that Fallout 4 needed. You'll meet a lot of interesting characters in Far Harbor, all connected in a complex and satisfying storyline with multiple moral choices. It definitely costs a lot for a DLC, but it's worth every penny.

Spyro: Reignited Trilogy on Nintendo Switch is a listless and unsuccessful porting, but it's saved by the contents.

The Quarry is a good interactive movie. Sadly we were expecting something more playable.

Game modes still need something new, but with a great gameplay PES 2019 brings the Pro Evolution Soccer series back to glory.

The game is probably too many years old nowadays but this version is without any doubt the best you can play.

Even better than the prequel, the new Mario vs. Donkey Kong is an addictive little gem with compelling gameplay, exceptional music and a Creator Mode which boosts the not-so-incredible longevity. One of the best games on the DS, period.

After the failed ‘Revolution’, Naruto returns to the top with Ultimate Ninja Storm 4. Gorgeous graphics, an enhanced combat system and a really rich Story Mode make this game a must have for any Naruto's fan.

It's a really strange idea and its mixture of elements barely make sense at all, but Murder by Numbers is irresistible thanks to its very strangeness. Maybe it's a little too clumsy and convoluted in its different elements, but it has a charm and a strong identity.

Quotation forthcoming.

A Twist of Fate closes the trilogy maintaining the good quality level of the whole series. There are no innovations but a nice plot, visual and puzzles.

Infinity Ward did a great job bringing all the fun of the Battle Royale modes into the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare world.

A well executed mix between a Total War series kind of strategy and a role playing game. A too heavy difficult level and some unbalanced units keep the game away from better scores.

Two years has passed since Final Fantasy XIII and XIII-2 has partly solved the problems that plagued the first attempt of Square Enix, with an interesting "monster collecting" part and a less linear gameplay. It's a shame that the story and character development are not as good as the original title.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist: Link Evolution! is the definitive encyclopedia of the famous card game.

What the Golf? is the perfect game for everyone and one of the bast game on Apple Arcade.

SFxT is a smaller and reduced version of the console game, with less content and only 10 characters, imprecise controls and a new "tag system".

It can look too simple at first, but as soon as you get into its trick system OlliOlli becomes a sweet little game, challenging and rewarding. A perfect fit for Vita.

The first expansion for Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth is a step forward, but not without its problems. While new concepts are many, and some of them also daring, they are far from perfect and still need work and balance. If you loved the basic Beyond Earth, then it's highly probable you'll love Rising Tide too, otherwise it could be better to wait for further expansions.

Despite unsolved bugs and non-updated teams, PES 2011 has lots of novelties, excellent commentary and a great graphics.

Golden Sun: Dark Dawn is an excellent JRPG. Surprisingly, gameplay is extremely close to previous installments in the franchise and it's quite baffling Camelot did not dare to do more with this third episode. Despite this flaw in originality, Golden Sun: Dark Dawn is a well done and refined lengthy adventure but it does not win over Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Sky as the DS game of the year.

DeathSpank takes roughly 8 hours to be cleared, an excellent length for a low-budget and cheap game. It's fun and engaging and unique enough to appeal fans of hack'n'slash games with it wide variety of items and locations. DeathSpank may not have any big expectation but it is nevertheless very enjoyable and polished to be suggested to any player looking for a funny, fast adventure.

Joe Dever's Lone Wolf didn't lose its charm as it delivers a rich, engaging RPG experience on Nintendo Switch.

Skin Deep puts you in the shoes of Nina Pasadena, the space mercenary capable of getting rid of a thug armed only with a succulent plant. The new title from Blendo Games is an immersive sim that challenges the player to get out of impossible situations by creatively exploiting objects in the environment. It is a hilarious video game, with many funny ideas and a humor all its own that will win you over. A crazy title, in which you can get rid of opponents by throwing them through the drain of a space toilet.

Teslagrand won't define a genre but it's extremely well designed and will make any fan of the 16bit age happy with its colorful visuals and challenging bosses.

Expensive for sure, but it's worth every single cent. The four new maps are well designed and entertaining. Call of the Dead is a great addiction in the zombie mode.

RAGE is no doubt a great game. It's exciting, keeps you enthralled for hours, has an excellent combat system and some very good AI. The boundary elements such as the races are more entertaining than what you'd expect, and the single player campaign lasts at least 15 hours. However, from a technical standpoint id's last effort could really disappoint the ones who were expecting something more.

It might not be the most original iOS game out there, but Supermagical is a very competent puzzler that adds a welcome RPG flavour to the mix.

Smite is a peculiar and accessible MOBA, whose gameplay is quite suitable to a gamepad. On PS4 the launch wasn't perfect, but as of now most problems have disappeared, and what remains is a pretty good DotA-like with a massive roster of heroes.

Taken for what it is, meaning a purely narrative additional content that still manages to introduce small gameplay elements, Life is Strange: Wavelengths proves to be an excellent DLC.

Meg's Monster is a narrative adventure and should not be mistaken for a role-playing game. The battles are the least interesting part: although useful on a narrative level, the fights always repeat identical to each other and the original idea, namely to control a very powerful monster, is immediately lost. That said, the story of the little girl and Roy the monster is sweet, exciting and a harbinger of important lessons.

Ragnarock is the true heir to Guitar Hero, a title that should not be missing from the collection of any genre's fan.

Tales of Vesperia actually is one of the best available jrpg on Xbox 360. Its combat system is an almost perfect mix between action and strategy and its graphics are one the best examples of contemporary cell shading. The problem is that the game hasn't been localized in Italian and the ones not familiar with English won't be able to fully enjoy Tales of Vesperia's characters and story.

Rusty Hearts is a funny game with a great gothic atmosphere. If you like online roleplaying games with a bit of additional hack and slash action, then it's what you may have looked for. It is definitely a good game, not only between the freemium ones.

Stylish, fun and very rich in content. The combat system works well enough, and the special abilities allow us to add some variety to our offensive. Once we reach a certain level, things begin to be confusing due to the large number of enemies, and the controls don't always react as we could expect. However, this is an excellent game for its price and should not be missed.

A misstep we really were not expecting from a team whose excellence surprised us during all this generation. Resident Evil 3 is short and inferior to Resident Evil 2 Remake in almost every aspect, and its replayability isn't enough to save it, nor is the addition of Project Resistance to the package.

Quotation forthcoming.

Greed Corp is an addictive and rewarding strategic game that stands out in a genre that usually is not console-friendly at all. If you like this kind of games, you'll love Greed Corp.

Darkness in the Capital is a dlc that continues on the work already done before and adds an additional NG+.

Super Mega Baseball 4 is a sports game suitable for multiple types of players, be it the more casual ones who want to play a game without too much stress from time to time or those who want to jump into multi-season leagues with the need to manage the entire team from multiple angles. It's not a huge step forward from the previous chapter, but with the many modes and its light-hearted style, it's a good way to enjoy baseball without having to throw on the more realistic MLB The Show.

Once Upon a Katamari takes the simple, brilliant idea at the heart of the series and rolls it through time, offering a hilarious snapshot of human history. It’s packed with clever twists that shake up a formula which, at its core, stays the same — and yet it never stops being fun, thanks to its absurd creativity, irresistible soundtrack, and a presentation that’s unapologetically, wonderfully Japanese. If you’ve loved this franchise in the past, this comeback will have you cheerfully humming for days. And if you’ve never played it before, now’s a perfect time to give it a shot and discover just how fun it can be to roll over a bunch of Greek philosophers or barrel through a pack of velociraptors.

Persona 5 Tactica is a fun, lighthearted strategy RPG with a clever level design and some interesting gameplay choices which feel properly Persona's.

Outlast 2 brings pure fear on Nintendo Switch, with a solid and effective porting.

A brilliant stand-alone expansion that enhances DriveClub with a selection of beautiful Superbikes, fun to drive especially in online challenges.

It's not completely original, but Gravity Guy is a cute little action game with simple mechanics: on the other side, it's a bit repetitive and way too short.

Shamefully, Aitcheson's latest game entered the mobile market almost unnoticed. Fun in single-player and devilish with a friend, it was instead an unexpected surprise.

Just like its awkward heroine Quozzle, Incredipede can be attractive and repulsive, with its open structure and simple level design, but it's also an outstanding proof that a simple and strange idea can lead to a very interesting game.

Radiation Island delivers a rich, compelling survival experience, if you can deal with its faults.

​Doom is still one of the best first person shooters out there and the limited power provided by Nintendo Switch can't change this. Despite its ridiculous resolution and its low FPS, you can now enjoy the experience in full portability thanks to this porting.​

Dirt 5 is the perfect synthesis of what an arcade racing game should be. It's fun, colorful, fast and immediate and, we're sure, will remain for a long time in the heart of players.

Filled with cute characters and music, Happy Street quickly becomes a pleasant routine: you can't help but check on your little town many times during the day, making sure everything is ok and everyone is happy.

Cuboid delivers a solid action puzzle experience, packed with lots of content and very nice graphics and sounds.

Marvel Future Fight is a simple but solid take to the action RPG genre, with plenty of nice characters to unlock, lots of upgrades and missions.

Scribblenauts Mega Pack includes the two most important chapters of the series: Scribblenauts Unlimited and Scribblenauts Unmasked: A DC Comics Adventure.

Oddworld: Soulstorm Enhanced Edition is still a great game with great problems, some really nice ideas and a compelling story but also cumbersome and imprecise controls that make the experience inevitably frustrating.

Savant - Ascent REMIX is a simple and yet intriguing game. It is short, but you can replay it to master its mechanics.

The best Nintendo games are famous for being both immediate and deep at the same time. Kirby Air Riders is too chaotic to be immediate, and too superficial to be deep. Everything else, however, is excellently executed.

Escape Plan Bravo doesn't deliver what it promises. When it's all over, we are left with the impression that the most interesting aspects of the story are still untold.

Nobody Saves the World takes many ideas from Guacamelee and successfully transfers them in an action RPG structure that recalls the Diablo-like sub-genre. It's surely a grindfest in the end, but an exciting one.

Apex Legends is a complex game to transport to smartphones, yet Respawn Entertainment has succeeded: Apex Legends Mobile it isn't perfect, it remains an interesting and original stand-alone product.

Ready or Not has made a name for itself with VOID Interactive's ambitious goal to depict with absolute realism and without compromise the combat scenarios that a SWAT team faces on a daily basis. However, the truth is that behind the scandal lies an excellent first-person tactical shooter that, after two years of early access, is ready to inherit the legacy of SWAT.

Horizon Call of the Mountain is a spectacular game but, at the same time, it does nothing to surprise the player. The climbing is solid and realistic but it starts to tire too early and the combat is fun but soon enough becomes repetitive. In the end, this is a good game but we were hoping to see something more from Guerrilla to show what VR should be in 2023.

Candy Crush Saga is a fun, simple puzzle game, with lots of different missions but a few too many IAPs.

NiOh - Defiant Honor is an impressive DLC with lots of content and new good ideas.

AVICII Invector is a typical rhythm game with AVICII musics. Not bad, but nothing memorable.

The strength of this game's combat system is undeniable, but with mediocre graphics and content, this is a game for fighting veterans only. If you love complex mechanics, big rosters and pure competitive play, you'll definitely love The King of Fighters XIV... keep in mind that there are better fighting games out there even for you though.

Shiren the Wanderer: The Tower of Fortune and the Dice of Fate is a good “old style” dungeon crawler with some rougue-like elements, a good level of challenge and a nice colorful graphics, as in the era of 16-bit.

Motorstorm: Arctic Edge on PSP is just as we expected it: an arcade racer, very spectacular and durable, given the huge number of races and the presence of online multiplayer. The lack of next gen graphics is certainly hard to swallow for the series, but it was done everything possible to make a good job on PSP.

Lone Wolf - Blood on the Snow delivers a top quality experience, mixing some compelling narratives, a bunch of minigames based on the choices we make and a solid, visually stunning RPG combat system.

Age of Imprisonment looks like an improvement through and through of the Hyrule Warriors formula, however it lacks on diversity and uniqueness: it feels like it sails on safe waters by taking away the most convoluted features of its predecessor for a more streamlined narrative driven experience while never shaking the divisive musou roots off.

Trials Rising brings back the classic feelings of the franchise after the disappointing Trials of the Blood Dragon.

Probably the best twin stick shooter out there, Alienation delivers a solid, compelling experience for both solo and cooperative play.

The PC version of Outland is as good as the console versions that you may have already played in 2011. It is a solid platform game with great action elements and compelling boss fights: you can also choose to play it alone or with a friend via online co-op, where you can also get some additional content.

Steredenn: Binary Stars manages to put a new idea inside one of the most traditionalist game structure, making a strange but working blend of 2D shooter and roguelike.

Teamfight Tactics is the best autobattler on the market, one of the few with its identity.

3 out of 10 Season 2 continues in the layout of the first part of the game. The problem is that it moves very slowly and after ten episodes nothing fascinating has happened yet.

Super Robot Wars 30 celebrates thirty years of an iconic franchise for many Japanese robots fans, and it does it in the best way: with an official western release, although limited to the PC version available on Steam.

Perfect Dark is not a game for everyone. Many things have changed since it first came out on the N64, but still it is worth to play through especially if you haven't played it, back at those times. Old gamers will surely love it.

Its structural proximity to Nioh will perhaps be a bitter pill to swallow for those who have never loved inventory management and the progression of that saga, yet Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty completely revolutionizes the combat system of those games and manages to offer a generally much more balanced and adrenaline-pumping experience, despite the simplification of the offensive mechanics. Team Ninja's latest work is an extremely well-finished and long-lived game, which demonstrates the growth of its developers in many aspects, and overall manages to eliminate many defects of the works from which it took the basis. We are far from perfect, but we recommend it without fear to any fan of quality action.

Expectations were high for the new F1 management game, but they were only partially met. F1 Manager 2022 is a good starting point to work on (the developer has acquired a four-year license), but still decidedly immature in content, especially as regards the more strictly managerial part.

A solid effort from People Can Fly and a game that will entertain you along its fast, if a bit short, ride. If you think you'll find the time to play it over and over with your friends on Xbox Live, this is a game worth checking out. If you are a lone wolf, be warned that your adventure will be over quickly.

Anarcute is easy to learn, but difficult enough to require some effort also from experienced players. Don't be distracted by the cuteness of its heroes, the revolution is coming!

Halo Wars 2 is not a perfect game, but is the best RTS on console and a great sequel!

Expeditions offer a unique experience, in an already inimitable series.

Even though it’s set on the surface of a planet, Homeworld: Desert of Kharak brings you all the fun, the strategy and the sense of dimensions of the Homeworld saga. One of the best strategy games of the year, flawled only by minor bugs.

L.A. Noire still delivers a solid, compelling experience, improving the original graphics in many ways.

Don't Starve is at the same time simple and complex, relaxing and intense. Refined mechanics, tons of objects and inspired graphics are able to create an addictive mix. Farming maybe indigestible for some players, but those who love the survival-sandbox formula will be captured by this game.

Assault Android Cactus is one of the best twin stick shooter available on Steam. The game delivers a frantic, compelling experience, packed with many different characters and lots of enemies to shoot at.

Road 96 is, ultimately, a successful adventure, which, however, never manages to get to the bottom, limiting itself to exposing its vision in the most didactic way possible.

If you are in search of a good golf game, leave it be, but if you want a good story, you will find one of the most significant games of the year.

Crysis Remastered Trilogy is an excellent collection as a whole, which allows you to play the three chapters that make up the series with more modern graphics, capable of taking advantage of even the most performing video cards. Of course, it is interesting to note how you start with an excellent title (Crysis), moving on to a decent one and nothing more (Crysis 2) to get to a really great one (Crysis 3), but honestly we do not recommend you to sacrifice any of the three (they are can also be purchased individually) in case you decide to take the trilogy, because in any case they form a unique story, which is worth living in full, once you are inside. It must also be said that the experience as a whole remains identical to that of the originals, so those who have already lived it will not find great incentives to do it again, apart from the graphic ones.

Atelier Escha & Logy: Alchemists of the Dusk Sky is finally out of its niche thanks to a good blend of traditional jRPG gameplay and peculiar alchemy/crafting shenanigans. It has quite a few flaws, but it can easily appeal newcomers as well.

Observation is a narrative driven game with a great storytelling, made by the Stories Untold studio.

Warhammer Quest delivers a solid strategy experience, packed with several RPG elements, a lot of quests to complete, items to find and enemies to fight.

Anger Foot is not a game without flaws. We've actually encountered many throughout our adventure in the sunny Shit City, while kicking doors and asses of goons and strange creatures. Nonetheless, its funny, stupidly satisfying gameplay makes this "first-person shooter" genre debut one to cherish jealousy in our library.

Paper Beast is a VR puzzle adventure with several original mechanics and a great atmosphere, but also some very cumbersome controls.

Alan Wake Remastered marks the debut of Remedy Entertainment's iconic action shooter on all platforms more than eleven years after the famous Xbox 360 exclusive. Featuring the original campaign, two DLCs and some little extras, the game runs at 4K and 60 fps on next-gen consoles, replacing a large number of assets, textures and effects.

Behind the cute appearances lies a hard as nails racing game, which demands dedication and patience to be mastered.

A fun and challenging puzzle/platform based on physics, To-Fu Fury doesn't do anything really new but does it very well, despite some issues in controls
