Daedalic's first time in the world of RPG is one of those to remember. Blackguards is not a flawless game: it has a slow gameplay that after hours and hours can be boring, technically it is not that great and has an annoying problem of balancing the difficulty. Yet it remains a great role-playing game.

It is not easy to sum up a game like Might & Magic X: Legacy. It is beyond reasonable doubt a game largely based on nostalgia, but at the same time is honest and well made.

Some good ideas are not enough to revive Dragon Ball Z. The combat system is far too simplistic and the mechanics show a lot of problems that make this game mediocre.

Despite a good evolution from the past entry of the series, what FX did is not enough to make this game a real winner. Everything must be improved in order to make it a game able to compete with Football Manager.

Madden NFL 25 is the best American football game on the market. Mainly because it's the one and only. Even with this series EA seems to have fallen asleep, focusing more on the reaffirmation of the good aspects of the past rather than the introduction of something new.

Max The Curse of Brotherhood is a fun and challenging 2.5D platformer that will be able to keep you attached to the pad for its entire duration, despite too many bugs and an unstable framerate.

Nintendo is a master at finding a specific target audience and offer them exactly what they want, sometimes even with a little less quality than usual. Mario Party: Island Tour does just that, speaking to the more casual audience among the owners of Nintendo 3DS.

While extremely repetitive, this game guarantees great immersion thanks to a lot different choices that will have positive or negative outcomes and that will make us real protagonists of this maybe too short adventure.

Content-wise, the works of Yuke's are always great and this year the Japanese developers have outdone themselves. This games features some of the most spectacular events in WWE history.

Whether you are looking for a coaching career or a simply deep experience as a manager with no frills, the latest incarnation of the series created by Sports Interactive will meet once again to your need.

Ethan: Meteor Hunter is an atypical platform game. Mixing a classic platformer with distinctive elements has definitely been a good idea. The game is difficult, but the level design is extremely good and the game worth its small price.

Swap force is a nice game, perfect for the target to which it's addressed, exciting and enjoyable also for those who are already a little older. If you have a child, or a younger brother to share the experience with, this game will be just amazing.

Despite using the overused topic of zombies, everything in the game is targeted toward survival through the skillful use of a good system of loot and crafting. Nevertheless, these two elements are not sufficient to make the title an excellent game, as the title has some technical issues.

Capcom has put together yet another fun and witty game, that makes us use the gray matter and will please children and adults. However, it should also be said that, several years from the first game and with only few changes added from time to time, the series may need something new very soon.

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

One of the most foolish game of the Year. Hilarious and totally crazy, finally something really different and original.

Platformines is a valid cross line between 2D platform and 2D shooter with a retro 16 bit look and sound and with all the advantages and limitations that it entails. The gameplay is fun, the difficulty level is on the high standards and longevity is remarkable, but as hours pass the repetition grows too.

It's difficult to do worse than Pac-Man and the ghostly adventures on Wii U: there's a handful of much better platforms out there, both in 2D and 3D. Imprecise controls and a wacky camera are the main culprits, so that even for your kids or nephews this game is not good enough.

This Edition is probably the best package you can expect from musou genre. Although the game has a lot of contents, the formula is the same, and the technical upgrade is far from the excellence.

Betrayer is certainly an atypical FPS both in visual style and in the environment, both in gameplay that mixes exploration, combat, and search for clues in a particular way.

Nothing more and nothing less than an ordinary jrpg. Really far, in terms of quality and fun, from the latest games created by Nippon Ichi.

Kojima's mastery of the arts is still there, but Ground Zeroes seems to have lost many of the factors that made the Metal Gear series legendary. The technical part is mesmerizing, yet the gameplay lags a bit behind, and, while still fun, we obviously expected something... more. Maybe that will come in Phantom Pain. Maybe.

Spark created a good combat system, then threw it in a blender full of chaos and confusion, ruining most of the experience. When Yaiba works as intended, it's good fun. Unfortunately it mostly doesn't.

Sucker Punch failed to inject some new power in inFamous Second Son. Neat graphics and some beautiful neon effects barely cover a poor combat system. On the other side the game is still fun and with a good longevity so probably old infamous fans will not be disappointed.

Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD does justice to the original with a high-quality conversion and many extras. The title has aged very well and makes us regret the previous chapters with a gameplay that takes us back more than ten years without ever letting us weigh the time that has passed.

The game does not do anything wrong gameplay-wise, proposing a formula that has not aged and that takes us back in time. We are really happy to see Yoshi and Baby Mario again, but at the same time, we expected a little more.

Few titles have the courage to leave the player's hand and give him a hostile world to explore at will. Dark Souls is still the one that does it best.

Dogs Of War is a game with extremely deep gameplay mechanics, very well balanced maps and good character design. Graphics are pretty bad and music and sound effects are nothing special. Occasional crashes and matchmaking issues compromise the final result.
