    Red Steel 2 is a great game that offers an efficient combination of sword and gun and won't disappoint those who try it.

    The surprise Far Cry 3 is gone, but this time is bigger and better, and we still loved playing it. If you like first-person action games, you shouldn't miss this one.

    Beneath its erotic appearance there's solid gameplay that keeps improving. New challengers (including three from Virtua Fighter), new fighting styles, bigger and better stages, Tag mode, a very complete multiplayer and a great story mode. All those features are certainly enough to bolster the notion that DOA 5 is one of the best fighting games in a long while.

    One of the best IPs Nintendo has done recently. It's fresh, clever and challenging and the only thing we could ask for is a "Rotblox" where we can 'rotate' the pieces!

    The best choice if you want to enjoy this adventure. It's the very same game, but making the most of it. Adapted to the DualShock 3 and PlayStation Move controllers, Okami is still a game we recommend you to (re)discover.

    Halo 5 is a game Xbox One users cannot miss. There are some aspects of it we haven't enjoyed so much, but in general terms it's an experience that lives up to the bar set by its predecessors.

    One of the best visual novels ever made is back with a fantastic new look, and it is, more than ever, a game you cannot miss.

    The additions we've seen in this episode are worth the console upgrade, making it more entertaining and fun than ever. The improved control and the evolved AI makes it closer to the driving simulator you may be looking for.

    Empire Total War is outstanding in all its features, one of those games which are enjoyable from beginning to end. You could hardly stop playing for weeks. It is a cliche to say it, but Creative Assembly have truly surpassed themselves; Empire: Total Wars is one of those masterpieces no videogame fan should let escape.

    The base we already had gets an incredibly deep layer of politics, government and religion that keeps evolving the experience.

    Although it has lost part of the impact of the previous game, Guerrilla Games has again achieved a great first-person shooter, greatly improving the campaign mode and emphasizing its personality.

    A great reborn of the series. Addictive, dynamic, challenging, deep and fun. It's a surprise for the fans of strategy games, whose only -very slight- issues are the story and the multiplayer. Not that they're bad, it's just they could be improved, but we quickly forget about it when playing. Way better than we expected.

    Beautiful, unique and different. Gorogoa is an incredible puzzle game that feels short, but manages to deliver an incredible sense of discovery and surprise every single second.

    Creative Assembly has managed to make the series feel fresh without changing its core, delivering one of its best entries to date. It looks and plays great, and it comes with many, many hours of content.

    Yes, it's more Monster Hunter, but that is great news. Epic battles, the same old fun and lots of content make it another great episode in the series.

    Lots of humour, heavy metal and a gameplay you'll fall in love with.

    Huge, incredibly complex, exciting, addictive, a wonder... we could be remarking the virtues of Anno 1404 for hours.

    This is the great, solid experience we played last year, but improved in many ways. One of the best basketball games we've ever played.

    Although the lack of meaningful additions is obvious, Forza Horizon takes another step forward in the racing genre, offering a fun adventure in a beautiful world with plenty of things to do.

    One of the best Monster Hunter available on more platforms is always good news, particularly when it does it with a great port like this one.

    This isn't just a visual upgrade, but a deeper remastering that also improves its gameplay. If you haven't played it yet, choosing the Scholar of the First Sin version is worth it.

    We feel like this is next-gen gameplay. Titanfall proves that there's still room for innovation in shooting games, and we've had a blast playing it. It could have had next-gen visuals, though, and then it would have been the bomb.

    Endwalker is the perfect ending for an unforgettable decade of FFXIV. A truly masterpiece to go back to the currently best MMORPG.

    FromSoftware delivers yet another fantastic action adventure full of mechs, unforgettable bosses and masterfully designed missions.

    This PC version is just what we expected. The same product we have seen in consoles, but with polished graphics to make the most of the power of the platform. It is not a game for newcomers to the series, as its story follows those of the previous game, but followers of Assassin's Creed will love it.

    A perfect example of how to bring a series born in home console to portable gaming without making any sacrifice in visuals or in gameplay.

    This is the best version so far, but also the less innovative. It feels like EA Sports is absolutely focused on next gen consoles, so there are few additions here. However, it is as fun as always, and the best football simulator this year for current consoles.

    Death Stranding 2 refines the formula of its predecessor with deeper emotional storytelling, improved traversal and combat mechanics, and an audiovisual presentation that borders on cinematic excellence; while it loses some of the surprise factor from the original, it compensates with more varied gameplay and a broader appeal, though it still won't resonate with everyone.
    • 80 Metascore

    The best version so far. It solves many issues and keeps some others, and, even though it doesn't make the most of current PCs, we still think it's the best way to enjoy this outstanding game.

    Kojima’s latest work lands on PC with a fantastic adaptation that pushes even further its incredible visuals and adds some minor content, becoming the best version currently available.
