    Flux tries to return to the origin of the series, in a risky but interesting twist which achieves to engage the player. It mantains the high difficulty level of all the series, but changes some gameplay features that eliminate frustration.

    The mobile adaptation of the Konami franchise works quite well, even in a free-to-play form. It has a lot of options and it's quite accessible, so if you're interested, make sure you give it a try.

    This is a very good game, with interesting ideas and great execution. It's fun, challenging and deep, so we can't really ask much more.

    This fusion of interactive play and game is a very nice surprise for VR users. If you like mystery murder-like stories, don’t miss this one.

    TorchLight II is a fantastic dungeon crawler, and it works great on Switch. Some aspects haven’t aged particularly well, but overall is a great title for those who enjoy Diablo-like adventures.

    We think these two games deserved a better package, with extras of some kind, but unfortunately we just get a (pretty good) visual upgrade. That said, they are two of the best games developed by PlatinumGames, and it’s great to have them on newer platforms.

    Fuser is more than a great DJ game, it’s also a tool to create your own remixes and share them online, as well as compete against other DJs.

    Labyrinth City is a surprising, fun and unique adventure you cannot miss. A surreal experience where there is much more than finding the exit.

    Although not as surprising as the original (like pretty much every sequel), this title deliver another fantastic experience while we uncover its characters’ darkest secrets.

    The console version of American Arcadia offers everything we enjoyed in the PC version that came out two years ago. In addition to boasting excellent technical performance, it maintains the freshness that was so successful in its day, with a perfect blend of narrative and gameplay. It's one of those indie games that gives the impression of coming from a studio that has carefully curated every element we gamers appreciate. Although the title isn't excessively long, it's impossible not to recommend it to those looking for a story that will keep you glued to the screen for a while. It will leave you wanting more.

    This spin-off revitalizes the Rune Factory series with a fresh, Japan-inspired setting, introducing village management and sacred dance mechanics alongside combat and farming. While its charming visuals and engaging world-building shine, technical issues like frame drops and pop-in detract from the experience.

    Still a good game, and with improved graphics, but it lacks some more features. We miss especially a multiplayer mode which would have made the most of the console connectivity potential.

    While very different from the original, this sequel still knows how to offer a challenging and addictive roguelite experience that knows how to push us to the limit.

    Dontnod proves again they are able to create great stories with characters we care about, but this time the experience is much more lineal, decisions don’t seem to matter that much, and the lack of special powers makes the gameplay less diverse and exciting.

    If you've enjoyed Ace Attorney's adventures before, this is yet another good episode, even though we've felt it's not as well planned as others and the experience has too many ups and downs.

    This studio is unique and it proves it once again. Chuchel is beautiful, fun and charming, and if you like this type of game, you shouldn't miss it.

    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.

    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.

    Although it does not have many competitors in the Wii library, this is the best FPS in Wii, with the best multiplayer mode, and one of the best games of the year in the console.

    This is a good sequel which will please those who enjoyed the first game, and also those looking for a game of intense action, with a classic bidimensional, but spectacular, style.

    Sifu reimagines old-school beat-em-ups with great ideas and a fantastic combat system. It is tough, but if you’re up for a challenge, make sure to check it out.

    SnowRunner is a fantastic driving experience, although driving is just the result of a lot of time of planning the route, choosing and customizing the vehicle and exploring the map. It’s not very newcomer-friendly, but fans of the series will love the evolution, and if you’re new to it, with some patience, you’ll get into this engaging world.

    Even with its flaws, it’s a fun game that any RPG fan will enjoy, even if you’re not familiar with the franchise.

    If you like Persona or Etrian Odyssey, this is a game you cannot miss. Even with its flaws, iit is a great way of saying goodbye to our 3DS.

    We loved it when it fist came out, and we still love it today. The core of Full Body is the same, but new additions and changes to the storyline are a good reason to go back to this unique adventure.

    Borderlands 3 is bigger and better. It’s everything we expected for the third main entry, and even if it’s very conservative, it’s a fantastic game you will love with friends or even on your own.

    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.

    If Patapon was surprising because of the freshness and charm of the characters, Patapon 2 completely lacks that, which can lead to think that this is simply the same game, with some minor touches to deliver and strengthen the console portfolio. Nothing further from the truth, this title can be compared with any blockbuster on the PSP.

    Madworld has made a lot of noise before its launch and, after playing it, we can say it deserves it, although the result could have been even better. The game brings very special aesthetics which are undoubtedly a good decision, and totally fits the gameplay experience Platinum Games wanted to offer.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    A great game that succeeds in transforming the formula into an open-world, real-time action game. It has its flaws, but it will engage thanks to its graphics and spectacular combats. A new path for a series that is still relevant after 30 years.
