It’s the best football managing game around, no contest. Every year it gets better too, with refined mechanics, more complexity and steps in the right direction. Some historical flaws are still there, unfortunately, like unrealistic values for some players, or boring press conferences. Iron out the kinks and it will become perfect.

Trackmania Wii is an exciting arcade racing game for Nintendo Wii. The gameplay is very funny but slightly hard for a less experienced player. In the end it's a must-have title for arcade racing fans.

Dynasty Warriors Origins embodies everything fans of the musou genre have always dreamed of for their favorite series. This installment raises the bar in terms of quality and, in many ways, sets a new standard for the genre, appealing not only to longtime fans but also to newcomers, while laying a solid foundation for the future of the entire franchise. From its storytelling to the revamped combat mechanics, nearly every piece falls perfectly into place. Despite a few hiccups and some rough edges that still need polishing, it’s impossible not to appreciate the fantastic work done by the team at Omega Force.

This year, after a couple of issues that have introduced numerous innovations, Football Manager 2015 plays it safe, proposing a new and enjoyable interface and little else.

Quotation forthcoming.

Steins;Gate 0 has just one fault, which is that you need to play the first game in the series to fully appreciate the story, the character progression, the new twist on some of the protagonists. Apart from this, we're talking about one of the best script in recent memory, and a high quality visual novel for both Vita and Ps4 owners.

Luftrauser is a great game. Vlambeer create a little gem for the indie market, a perfect mixture of gameplay and style.

Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 Remix is the collection of the collections, perfect for every person who wants to discover the saga with the new 60fps gameplay. There are some problems in the porting, but not so many and not so important.

Frostpunk 2 puts its gameplay at the service of storytelling and, through relatively simple game mechanics, manages to make the player experience strong emotions and a constant moral dilemma. From a gameplay perspective, it is a fairly straightforward city builder, but the political and social dynamics are where the essence of the game created by 11 Bit Studios truly lies. Frostpunk 2 dismantles any notion of social utopia and shows how humans are inherently irrational beings, ready to self-destruct. The limitations imposed on the player’s decision-making power work perfectly within this framework, forcing the player to make difficult and uncomfortable decisions, offering a much more satisfying and refined level of strategy compared to traditional management games.

Resident Evil 3 fails to reach the heights of Resident Evil 2 remake, has a shorter and easier campaign and cuts off some iconic locations like The Clock Tower and Raccoon Park.

Thanks to its amazing gameplay and a new AI that makes every match unique, PES 2017 is the best Pro Evolution Soccer game on the next gen consoles.

F1 2018 continues on the good road set by the predecessors. The gameplay is the typical one, friendly for newcomers and complex for hardcore players. There are some problems with the AI, but not enough to stop a F1 fan from buying the game.

It's impossible not to recommend Bioshock The Collection to anyone who missed anything about this series, a whole game or even only one of the downloadable contents: yes, the three games are this good, and the work made on this remastered version is good, albeit not perfect. When all is said and done, we're talking about three of the better games of the last console generation.

The Persistence takes every element from a traditional roguelike and brings them to the next level in Virtual Reality. This sci-fi explorative adventure is a polished experience, from the graphics quality to the exceptional sound design. The gameplay offers procedurally-generated levels and a vast array of power-ups and weapons, all available for you to customize your character in the best way. The Persistence is a must have if you are looking for a fresh new VR horror adventure on PS4.

We didn't expect a game so close to the original for PC. Blitz is well made, surprisingly able to launch us into battle in a much faster way and able to deliver the same emotions of the main series.

Destiny 2 is a great game, better than the first one because of its many more end-game activities, all well-structured and organized. The story is amazing, made of very beautiful cut-scenes and characters written along the lines of most contemporary movies. Unfortunately the difficulty is low and the progression of the Guardian could be very quick and easy. Despite this, the game is great to play and share with friends: waiting on the raids and the trials of the nine, we could easily say that Destiny 2 will be loved by fans and newbies.

Shovel Knight is a little gem of an indie game, perfectly suited for short bursts of play and extremely enjoyable for both the veterans (who will shed joy tears) and the newcomers looking for a challenge on their 3DS.

We cannot recommend Perfect Chronology enough, to both newcomers, who will find an enjoyable and brilliant role playing game, and old fans of the franchise, who will find enough unreleased content to justify a second purchase. let's hope to see a sequel in a not too far away future.

An amazing title in terms of gameplay and fun.

Creative Assembly manages to innovate the previous Shogun 2 chapter by changing era and adding fireweapons to the conflicts. Thankfully this creates a well balanced mixture that is sure to be liked by many, if not every, fan of the series.

Some really good gameplay ideas, a good storytelling and a fast paced combat.

Focused on Chloe and Max, and relatively calm if you compare it to the past chapters, Episode 3 is a narrative masterpiece thanks to its final phase and the emotions it can instill in the player. This is definitely an episodic adventure you should keep on your radar.

Nioh 2 adds some tweaks to a great combat system, with important features that open up a lot of customizations. Nonetheless the recycle of assets shows a creative impasse and an alarming lack of fresh ideas.

The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening is an amazing remake that gives new life to a 26 year old game, with a brilliant art style and a perfect progression tied to the finding and the use of accessories. The only technical flaws are represented by some frame rate issues during the transition from one area to another.

This is one last chance for your 3DS to shine, and if you're either a fan of the Persona series or JRPG in general, this is a 50 hour -romp that cannot be missed, even though the dungeon design of the first game was slightly better.

Quotation forthcoming.

These portings are definitely the best chance for the toughest players to enjoy these games, if they couldn't play them in the past. Not recommended to players with little patience.

Octopath Traveler 0 is, in every respect, a solid entry in the franchise, even if not the best of the three, and it introduces a series of good ideas that we may well see again in the next, inevitable instalments: from the inclusion of “cozy” mechanics, with the construction of a village, to the addition of a second line during battles, which significantly broadens the player’s range of strategic options.
