Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake is a formidable reconstruction that is absolutely faithful to the original games, which includes the additions that were made in different versions, adding even more aspects to make it a very enjoyable RPG today. Due to the high fidelity with respect to the classic, its conventions and a very purist style of play are maintained, something that is aimed especially at veterans. In any case, it is an excellent entry point to discover the Dragon Quest license, and it is important to play it in case in the future you want to be encouraged to discover its narrative sequel, which we will have next year with Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake.- Vandal

While the level design left us as cold as the snowy mountains that Aloy must explore, the combat surprised us a lot , forcing us to pay attention to all the chaotic action happening on screen and to take advantage of all our tools. Horizon fans who connect with LEGO humor will have a great time with Guerrilla and Studio Gobo's co-production; and those looking for an accessible action-adventure that can also be played co-op will be able to laugh at an adaptation that is not just for fans , and will probably end up enamored of the universe of Aloy and company.- Vandal

Rally Arcade Classics certainly deserves a lot more attention than it's been getting in its first few weeks, and we hope this isn't indicative of the current market's lack of interest in speed arcades. It's not trying to reinvent the arcade formula but rather pay homage to it, nor will it completely fill the gap left by the demise of arcades, but it's a passion project that can compete with the current competition in the indie space unless you consider the existence of a multiplayer mode to be absolutely essential.- Vandal

Death Stranding in the year 2024 remains as original and unique as when it was launched in 2019, and it is a great addition to the Xbox Series catalog. Yes, in addition, it has been launched with a launch offer at the tight price of 20 euros, and on top of that, Kojima Productions has acquired all the rights to the series, which makes it clear that sooner or later the sequel will also arrive on Xbox, so icing on the cake. More players will now be able to discover this very special adventure, and an interesting franchise that will continue in the future, and with which Kojima and his team will surely surprise us again.- Vandal

It is imperfect in a mysterious and sordid story that at times seems like an incomprehensible gibberish, but that ends up fitting with a structure that reminds us of Siren. It is imperfect in a combat system that lacks depth and precision, but that makes up for it with originality and rhythms different from those of any other hack and slash. It is imperfect in its gameplay loop, relying too much on a repetition that becomes repetitiveness, but which at the same time poses curious situations. And it is imperfect in its audiovisual finish, where there are tremendous contrasts that show that this is neither an indie game nor a great production, but neither is it something that is right in the middle, but rather it transits in that range as it sees fit. There will be those who think it is a mediocre video game, and it is true that you have to have a certain predisposition to enjoy it, whether for what it proposes in its mechanics, for its setting, for its tone or for the legacy of those who signed it. But we wouldn't want to miss it for anything. It's a victory for gamers and the industry that Slitterhead exists.- Vandal

There are a few more missions, variety and territories, but this doesn't mean that we're dealing with a bad video game, quite the opposite. In fact, it may be surprising how well this curious strategic-tactical experiment with roguelike elements has turned out. Its gameplay is very solid, the possibilities of the units are deep and the way of transferring the run and gun action to a new genre is talented. So if you are a faithful follower of Metal Slug and also connect with the style of game that has been devised, you may end up like us and get hooked.- Vandal

Shadows of the Damned: Hella Remastered is, broadly speaking, a next-gen port of the version we enjoyed more than a decade ago. Its logical graphical improvement (4K, 60 FPS) offers some contrasts and generally leaves behind the feeling that it could have offered something more; it keeps its sense of humor and roguelike approach intact, but it doesn't offer any great innovations beyond a "Plus" game mode. Although we regret that the original vision of Suda51 was not offered, the truth is that this is the best opportunity to enjoy the peculiar adventure of GarcÃa Hotspur and Johnson, characterized by its B-series touch and its constant cinematic nods. If you've never tried it, this is your chance. If you did before, it's never a bad time to enjoy this duo again and their journey to the depths of the Underworld.- Vandal

You have to be very clear that the point of A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead is to watch every step, remain in absolute silence and go unnoticed, and if this seems boring to you, we simply recommend that you skip this game. This does not mean that there are some areas that could be improved, such as the lack of variety in situations, but if you like movies or simply find the concept interesting, we believe that it can be a very good option, especially considering that it is on sale at a reduced price.- Vandal

There are probably few PlayStation players left who haven't tried Horizon Zero Dawn, a game that sold well - it exceeded 24 million in April 2023 - and has even been given away for free, but we can't forget that there will always be new users who haven't yet taken the first step in Aloy's shoes. LEGO Horizon: Adventures and Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered are designed for them, and the reduced-price upgrade can be an incentive to play it again looking better than ever...The value of Remastered therefore depends on our interest or affection for an epic adventure with great moments, whether it's climbing the first Longneck, discovering the mysteries of a cauldron or surviving a Devilish Garrardiente. There's something about it that makes it the most prolific PlayStation saga today.- Vandal

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is, for now, a big yes. After a 'Modern Warfare 2' that was a step backwards and a 'Modern Warfare 3' that clearly had a DLC flavour, Treyarch is stepping strong with this heir to 'Black Ops Cold War', with a campaign rich in references and with very varied and attractive levels that knows how to give the player what they ask for. The multiplayer and the zombies are more than fine at launch, but in a few months the game will be a different story and will be very different with the additions and changes that are made, hopefully always for the better and not spoil anything.- Vandal

Dragon Age: The Veilguard is, therefore, a good game that is adapted to the new public but that also preserves enough on a narrative level to please the most classic fan who accepts the approach to action-adventure and who will find, once again, a beautiful, well-constructed universe and a new episode that will give much to talk about in the coming months.- Vandal

The only reason we wouldn't recommend it is if the idea of ​​playing an Atari 2600 game, with its clunky controls and obtuse design, turns you off. If you're curious, even if you've never played an adventure like this before, we think it's worth your time, as it's very well designed, with clever puzzles, a well thought-out storyline, and a good number of secrets to discover. If this appeals to you and you like the horror vibe, we think you should give it a try.- Vandal

If the next main game of the blue hedgehog manages to maintain the level of quality, spectacularity and complexity of the levels of Shadow Generations while polishing the formula of open areas of free exploration that we saw in Frontiers and with which they have continued to experiment and test ideas here, we are convinced that the great future that Sonic told us about in 2011 is closer than ever to becoming a reality.- Vandal

This updated edition expands the already robust Mario Party experience with fun new modes that leverage the Switch 2’s camera, microphone, and mouse features, offering exciting innovations like Jamboree TV and improved visuals; however, the limited number of new mini-games and some technical quirks prevent it from reaching its full potential.- Vandal

Metaphor: ReFantazio is an evolution and deepening of the structure of Persona 5. It is a wonderful turn-based combat game with a fantastic progression system. It is a work with a dazzling artistic section. It is an exciting world, one that we always want to know more about, in which we are presented with a diverse cast of characters that manage to earn our empathy. But above all, it is a game that manages to leave its mark by tactfully dealing with a lot of important topics, with sufficient complexity but without overwhelming them. It is a reflection on democracy, populism, totalitarianism and our role as citizens in society. It is a title that surprises by how it is able to mix the epic with politics and come out of it successfully. Metaphor ReFantazio is an optimistic game with a more transcendental objective than having fun and entertaining us: it wants to make us better people.- Vandal

It’s been a long wait since Budokai Tenkaichi 3, but this is the successor we have been waiting for. Sure, there’s still room for improvement, particularly in the multiplayer, but overall it’s a fantastic fighting game to relieve the battles from Toriyama’s unforgettable saga.- Vandal

Perhaps PVP has been left a little behind (although the quests that encourage localized world PVP are very good) and we have encountered the typical class balance flaws that are already being improved, but Blizzard certainly has everything to get back on the path to success with this expansion...Now we just have to hope that the content updates are regular and that, as promised, we don't have to wait two years for the next expansion, Midnight, returning even more vitality to World of Warcraft, which, 20 years later, seems to be entering another great era.- Vandal

Do you like EDF? Then you will like World Brothers 2, because it encapsulates the essence of the series without complications and provides a presentation that is a bit generic but also more polished than usual in other D3 Publisher games. It is an excellent family shooter and therefore we can say that Yuke’s has successfully fulfilled its mission: it is the perfect entry into this universe and the pastime for the fan who has already squeezed out Earth Defense Force 6.- Vandal

In short, we liked TIEBREAK, and it left us with some intense and exciting matches, especially once we got used to its gameplay. The huge number of licenses plays in its favour, and the creation options open the door to almost anything we might miss. Right now, it's an enjoyable title with a fantastic foundation, but it doesn't feel like a finished game to us, so we'd recommend keeping an eye on it until, hopefully, future patches make it a serious contender for the best tennis game of the moment.- Vandal

Outlaws is a Ubisoft game that doesn’t feel like an Ubisoft game. It offers a well-designed, organic and measured open world, the characters are well written and gameplay-wise is very solid. It’s not perfect, and there are plenty of issues like the AI or the mediocre space battles, but if you like Star Wars, it really deserves an opportunity.- Vandal

We liked Nobody Wants to Die a lot. Going in blindly, it has been a very pleasant surprise that has captured us from beginning to end, and we believe that those who enjoy this type of narrative will really enjoy it. We repeat that it is an interactive, linear and quite guided story, so do not expect freedom or exploring an open world, but it is the game that Critical Hit Games wanted to make, and they have done it very well. They could have taken a little more risk with the investigations, innovated with the mechanics or even given more freedom when modifying the story, although, being the studio's debut, we understand that they wanted to play it safe. In any case, Nobody Wants to Die seems like a very entertaining and recommendable narrative adventure, as long as you know what you're going for.- Vandal

An interesting, well-designed, fun and different game that, despite its short duration and how predictable the script is at certain points, has given us a great time solving ingenious puzzles and unraveling the mysteries of its story.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate is not exactly the most original roguelite that we can find, but it is a very entertaining title that manages to make us have a good time as long as we like the license and the genre, especially if we have friends to enjoy it in company, having here its main attraction, something to which we must add well-executed combats and balanced and thoughtfully designed progression systems. Yes, it is not free from a series of problems that prevent it from achieving greatness, such as the lack of variety of rooms, enemies and events that it boasts or the inexplicable absence of matchmaking for its online mode, but if its defects do not They represent a great nuisance and you are passionate about Ninja Turtles, here you have a purchase option to take into account.- Vandal

We hope that, in a hypothetical sequel, intelligent and well-designed levels will be the norm and not the exception, since we like everything before us, but the execution is not up to par. We don't believe that a game of these genres should necessarily be challenging, but it should be stimulating, and, unfortunately, SCHiM remains a pretty uninspired journey.- Vandal

There will be unwary people who get carried away by the tracing, but a tracing is not a fake. To copy well you need an exhaustive knowledge of the reference that Viking Survivors misses, not through its fingers, but like a sieve. Added to zero progression is a lack of brutal content, both in the variety of enemies and skills. Finding reasons to play it is practically impossible for us.- Vandal
