Cuphead is a game that not only has an audiovisual section with overflowing personality and unique appeal, but also a title with practically flawless gameplay and with challenging final bosses of the first order that give us some of the most intense, crazy and fun battles that we have played in recent years...It took some time, but it's been worth the wait. Cuphead is amazing from start to finish, and unless you hate shoot 'em ups, you have to play it. It's definitely one of the best games of the year.- Vandal

Polyphony Digital keeps polishing its series, with a game that becomes more accessible, but still very deep. There's room for improvement, but as far as PS3 goes, Gran Turismo 6 proves that your "old" console still has a lot to give.- Vandal

It still is one of the best hack & slash we've seen, even though there are few additions to play it again if you've already beaten it. One way or another, this is the best version of the original Bayonetta.- Vandal

Battlefield 6 brings the series back to its roots with thrilling large-scale multiplayer, impressive environmental destruction, and excellent gunplay supported by solid performance and sound design, though the campaign suffers from weak AI and uneven pacing. Despite some balancing issues and a slow progression system, it’s a triumphant return that captures the chaotic and immersive essence that defines the franchise.- Vandal

BlazBlue for PSVITA is as good as in the rest of consoles. It has a great fighter roster, plenty of game modes, a good story and a captivating visual design. But especially, its gameplay is deep and engaging. If you can buy the PS3 or 360 version we still recommend them as you can use an arcade stick with them, but if you want to fight wherever you are this should be your choice.- Vandal

The remastered version of one of the best games of recent years offers the same masterpiece of action and storytelling with some technical improvements and interesting extras, such as the director's commentary, the discarded levels, and the addictive and excellent mode No Return. Graphically it is incredible, but the leap from PS4 is small. Some punctual problems in the rhythm and development of the main adventure.- Vandal
