    Videogame humor is the main -and almost only- strong part of Eat Lead, but it falls to be, in fact, a good game. It is not bad, but actually what it proposes in gameplay has been already made a lot of times with better results.

    I Want to Be Human is not the game we expected. It's not that original, and the controls aren't as responsive as a game like this one requires. It's not terrible, but it feels old –and not in a good way.

    Ultimately, Neopets can be interesting for those fans of the franchise who want to breed in a different way their pets, or for extremely casual or low age players who are seeking a light entertainment.

    Krater could have been much more, but its multiple flaws, frustrating character progression and repetitive combat end up wasting the game. Despite this, it offers quite a lot of content for an affordable price.

    It is difficult to find a movie-based game that is really good, and Rango almost achieves it. It doesn't bring anything especially new, but overall offers a varied and entertaining adventure.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    The core experience is as good as in any other episode of the franchise, but the free-to-play approach becomes really intrusive.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    This is interesting game, in a very unique way, but offers very little as an ARPG and as a remaster to justify this version.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    A dissapointing game, based on a strange universe, without a decent story and lackluster gameplay.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    A free adventure that tries to recover the narrative essence of Silent Hill, with the collaboration of two veterans of the saga: Masahiro Ito and Akira Yamaoka. It has some great moments and ideas, but also some flaws in its design and execution, and it will inevitably be compared to the unforgettable P.T.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    Beyond the aesthetic, it's hard to highlight anything about the game. Still, if you feel like going back all the way to 1995, this game has a few interesting moments in store.

    The proposal of Mythos is attractive and desirable. It is a good action game with great battles and, above all, it's free.

    There are better games with a similar approach and scope, but if you have already played them and you enjoy them, Red Bow can be a good choice.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    There are many problems that prevent us from recommending it. A poor AI, a short campaign and a multiplayer meant to be forgotten. We really hope that all the good ideas left behind finally surface if City Interactive decides to continue with the series.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It has its ups and downs, maybe too many, but the plot keeps you engaged and there are some moments that are very well-executed.

    Spare Parts is a very simple game, aimed to the younger audience, which will like the design and charm of its characters. Taking into account the audience of the game, we miss some more help in certain puzzles of final bosses, as some players might get stuck.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    The underlying experience is a good card-based game, but it's way too focused on the "pay-to-win" model. This is somehow understandable when those games are free, but not when paying €9.99 for it.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Taking the Resident Evil Universe, the game offers something never before seen in the series: pure, intense and frantic action, always accompanied by three partners. The campaign is not that long, but its multiplayer modes are great and very enjoyable.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Even though it's enjoyable, there's nothing particularly relevant or outstanding in Mighty No. 9. We've had fun with it, but it's technically poor and its level design is quite uninspired –definitely not what you would expect from such a successful Kickstarter and Inafune.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Althought from a technical point it's not the best Blood Bowl videogame, from the playable one is, hands down, the best portable version.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The game achieves to be faithful to the books, but it has quite a lot of flaws. Its gameplay is unbalanced and the story isn't told quite well. It only becomes enjoyable after some hours of play.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Ultimately, this game will only please series' hardcore fans who are eager to play the next Red Faction game and want some freshness within the series universe. Battlegrounds seems to have been quickly conceived and executed and that is noticeable from the first minutes of play.

    Although flawed, The Waylanders is a solid RPG for fans of the genre thanks to its setting and interesting mechanics.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Balan Wonderworld had good intentions, but it get two of its core mechanics wrong: its control and the suit system. It’s still enjoyable, although not as much as it could have been.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Overkill’s TWD is a game meant to be played with friends. If you want to enjoy a coop experience and you like the series, it’s probably a good choice, although if you’re playing alone you would probably better off looking elsewhere.
    • 51 Metascore

    Technical issues aside, we've really enjoyed Syberia 3, thanks to its good story, memorable characters, clever puzzles and an outstanding art direction.

    Disaster Report 4 feels like a game made ten years ago… and not particularly in a good way. There are some good ideas, but design and gameplay-wise it feels too obsolete.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    This is a singular title which is not that similar to the 1985 original. Those who are looking for an HD version of Green Beret might be disappointed, but this is still a good action game with simple gameplay that blends action, adventure and stealth.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    This is a long, fun game, but its difficulty and monotony seriously hurt the offer. Fans of the genre may find it worth it, but we would recommend them to try it first.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    This is a decent game if you want something with couch co-op to play with your friends, even if overall it feels uninspired and a little bit monotonous.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Stormrise produces an odd sensation: the ideas it proposes are very good for the most part, and its approach could have caused a new milestone in the genre, and set the way for the others to follow, taking advantage of its control. But the execution hasn't resulted so convincing.
    • 51 Metascore

    Although G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra is not one of the best action games in the Wii library, it is a fun and enjoyable title, specially with two players.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    As a game it simply works, but as an enhanced edition, it fails to fix many of the issues the original game had. There are better options on PS4, and Risen 3 has missed its opportunity to get closer to them.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    Headspun tries to merge several genres in one game. On paper, the idea might have worked, but when you actually play it you see its shortcomings. However, it’s a good option if you’re looking for something experimental.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    If a game works on the phone it doesn't have to work on console, and this is a good example of that. It still gets repetitive and monotonous, and doesn't offer anything really exciting.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    An extinct approach to first-person shooters, like a game locked into a time capsule that has been relased now (which is almost what happened). There are indeed many better shooters out there, but very few as charming, although the game might disappoint some who are just looking for a FPS by today's standards.
    • 51 Metascore

    Fighting with giant robots is not always as fun as you would imagine.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 53 Critic Score
    It's like it's fifth movie. It gives you nothing relevant, looks alright and it's not very interesting if you're not a fan of the series. It's a nice attempt, but it's still far from such a special series as Die Hard.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 62 Critic Score
    The best of Fairytale Fights is the idea to create the story and background of the game, hands down. Its twisted humour makes it attractive enough to be enjoyable, but only if we ignore its flaws.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    We've enjoyed the game as such, and it even kinda tastes like Sonic, but its monetization system becomes way too frustrating and annoying.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 63 Critic Score
    This is a coop shooter with a great setting and good ideas, but the worlds feels empty, the progression isn’t very appealing and ends up feeling repetitive.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Unless the nostalgia makes you forget about all the issues, Max Damage is a really weak game when it comes to gameplay. Definitely, the franchise has seen better days.

    After the great adventures Frozenbyte has offered us, we were expecting much more from them. Unfortunately, Shadwen is a nice idea behind a really poor execution.

    FNAF takes a step back, and relies on sound to scare you. It still works, but now your biggest fear would be going deaf because of its loud scare jumps.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A good game with a extremely great presentation and a couple of pleasant playable features. It has some issues –difficulty lowered and very few additions– but it is a very interesting option for those who like graphic adventure games.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    It holds some scary moments and manages to entertain, but it fails to deliver something now. If you haven't played any horror game from the Amnesia/Slender wave, it might be surprising. If you have, it feels like yet another survival horror relying on the very same gameplay.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    A sword combat game which is unbalanced in many aspects. Its difficulty curve is strange, being very easy until its difficulty suddenly leaps. Those who love the genre will like it, but the rest should consider more options.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    We like Bodycount proposal of non-stop action, but the execution of the idea has been a bit poor, with a short and not inspiring campaign, and a very weak multiplayer.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Most of its pieces fit tight together, but lasting just one hour and being quite easy, it's not the best option for graphic adventures fans.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    It doesn't really work as a remake, but it doesn't work as an action platformer either. A quite simple experience where there's very little to highlight.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Summing up, it is possible that X-Blade: Postmortem won't be able to fit in the market because of its flaws. It will entertain those who are not familiar with this genre, but they will end finding it repetitive. The more seasoned in this sort of titles will find it directly boring. Nor the developers contribute with innovation neither the game achieves in creating an atmosphere which allows the player to get involved in the story.

    Bolt is without doubt on of the most enjoyable animated movies in the last years, both for its plot and its production. Unfortunately, its console adaptation can only tarnish its good name, with a poorly adapted gameplay, almost unacceptable graphics and which becomes very repetitive.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    It's a simple and fun game, without any kind of complications. Sometimes it feels a little bit rushed, but it should satisfy the audience it is aimed at.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Behind tough controls there's a game quite enjoyable, that makes up for its lack of content with good options for user generated content.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    It has some issues, but above all, it's very fun and entertaining, specially playing with a friend. Recommended for those who miss the old arcades where you could kill hundreds of guys with a couple of buttons.

    This is certainly not the best game that Inafune or Level-5 has ever offered, but still there are some nice features that will please its audience.

    It's aimed at old-school players, and although it's fun, it is a missed opportunity to do something great, as the series deserves.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Its core gameplay is very good, and matches can be very exciting, but some annoying issues get in the way. Also, all players and courts behave very similarly, so it feels the same no matter where or who you play as. Still, we hope the developer addresses this issues.

    The Good Life is a Swery game, with all the good and the bad things that implies. Sure, there are issues, but also plenty of memorable moments.

    A shooting game in WiiWare might be tempting for the ones who like this genre, or for the ones who want to try this sort of game for a low price, but its execution lacks everywhere.

    Krinkle Krusher works as a real-time strategy concept, but it feels like a mobile game turned into a console game. It isn't a bad option, but there's plenty of better games out there.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A game with mixed results. It tries to innovate in the action genre but falls midway, and it has some technical problems and gameplay flaws. It has very good ideas, but the implementation of some of them is poor, and that makes its gameplay suffer. Maybe with some more time or budget this would have been a much better game.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    BlueGiant has't brought us a very good title. It could be improved in many aspects and it doesn't offer anything new. Maybe its price and multiplayer will make it interesting for some players, but we think it's not worth it unless you're a fanatic of the genre.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    It’s great to see this series back, but unfortunately it feels repetitive and uninspired after a while.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    It's a good choice if you like management games, particularly considering that there aren't too many options available on consoles. Still, it's repetitive and it feels like it never unleashes its true potential.

    Lock's Quest is a twist to the tower defense genre with RTS. A little gem from 5th Cell that fans of the genre shouldn't miss.

    Crossboard 7 quite obviously aims for a younger audience, from its visuals to its low difficulty, and children will have a good time moving and jumping while playing the game. However, if you are looking for more depth, hardly you will find it.

    The new adventure of the X-Men is poor and simple. Although the story looked interesting, the result is an average action game, without anything remarkable, that only hardcore X-Men fans will enjoy.
    • 50 Metascore

    Although enjoyable overall, the flaws in aspects like exploration or level design take their toll on this adventure. It does have some virtues, but there are better alternatives available.

    It seem as if the game tries to achieve the nostalgic effect in those players who remember animated series of the eighties and seventies, but it fails when trying to adapt it to current times. Although the graphics don't shine, the main problem is its repetitive gameplay, with uninspiring combat.

    SuperMash is like a dream come true… if it worked. The idea of having some sort of randomized retro game sounds great, but none of the mini-games work very well, and ends up being a little bit disappointing.
    • 49 Metascore

    Although the result of the game is decent, it is a pity they had not offered more variety in options to the player, a thing which would have improved the overall game experience, and extend the life of the game.

    It brings us the opportunity to enjoy the adventure of Luffy and his crew, offering more content than the first game. Fully finishing the game will take us many hours, but it might be boring eventually because of the poor AI of the enemies. It is a great option for those who couldn't play the console version back in its launch, and it will fit perfectly in any collection.
    • 49 Metascore

    It's a game without a purpose. VR can be a great medium if you have the right idea, but this is not the case. If you are a big fan of the franchise, you might enjoy it, but if not, there are better options out there.

    • 49 Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    A very poor game, only recommendable for kids who love the series and would love to throw some punches and kicks while playing as the characters they watch on TV. A video game that would not live up to the expectations set by Kinect or Dragon Ball Z.

    Fallout 76 fails at many things, but its core gameplay still is fun and engaging. This is enough to keep you going, but it is not what you would expect from an online-based AAA, and even if all the bugs can be fixed, there are many things (combat, mission design, inventory system) that would be much harder to fix.
