    This is one of those games that deserves a second chance. It doesn't offer anything particularly relevant compared to the original, but it still is a great game and it looks, sounds and plays better than ever.

    This is an excellent update of the classic title.

    Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning mixes the open-ended gameplay of games like The Elder Scrolls with a hack and slash combat system. The result is good, dynamic and fun, although lacks some more depth or strategic elements, and this can result repetitive in a game of this length. It is a huge world with plenty of things to do that can keep us engaged for weeks, and its only shortcoming is the story and its characters, which lack some more charm, and the repetitive design of the quests.

    PC gamers have now the opportunity to try a great fighting experience, no matter if they are fans of manga/anime or not. The visual upgrade on PC is, indeed, welcome, and the extra contents are appreciated as well.

    It might seem simple, but Lonely Mountains is much more complex than you think. A good idea fantastically executed that we recommend to those who are looking for a somehow relaxing challenge.

    Arise is exactly what we expect from the indie scene: something special that can’t be found in AAA. Its gameplay isn’t its biggest strength, but it all works towards conveying emotions –and that’s where it shines.

    Alwa’s Legacy makes its art style and level design its best assets. Fun, charming and very solid gameplay-wise, this is a great choice if you’re looking for a experience with a retro vibe.

    Odd Meter's Indika offers a unique, narrative-driven experience set in 19th-century Russia, focusing on a young nun's mission. Despite its lack of surprising gameplay, the game excels in story, atmosphere, and artistic execution, with impressive graphics and voice acting, though it could benefit from better optimization and more innovative mechanics.

    Catherine is a fantastic game, and it being on more platforms is great news, even if it doesn’t offer any new content or relevant new features.

    Any Kirby fun should buy this game. It's not the best of the series, but it's a great, although easy, platformer, and holds minigames and content to keep us playing for a long while.

    Superstars is fantastic party game where you and your friends can have a great time with a solid selection of classic minigames.

    Total Chaos is a commendable survival horror experience, praised for its excellent balance of action and resource management, effective sound design, and successful visual revamp as a Doom II mod. However, it falters with imprecise melee combat, occasionally confusing and repetitive level design, and an identity crisis between horror and action, ultimately being too faithful to its mod origins to fully evolve.

    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.

    We would have liked to have seen a further evolution of the gameplay or the narrative, but still, inFamous: Second Son is much more than just outstanding visuals and becomes a very enjoyable experience and an example of what next-gen consoles can offer.

    Guitar Hero Live feels more like a new song rather than a tribute. Its new guitar makes it feel original and fresh, and we would only ask for a bigger multiplayer component to enhance the experience.

    The Division is big, fun, intense, deep... the list goes on and on. Ubisoft has delivered one of the best action games we've played in a few years, with a concept that can keep the players engaged for a long time. A truly next-generation game.

    Any person, regardless he likes tennis or not, will find fun, challenge and charm in this game, with a great system of advancement through the world as if it was a RPG game.

    Candle is charismatic, beautiful and original. If you enjoy with puzzle adventures, it deserves a try. It'll probably surprise you.

    A fun action RPG that will appeal to fans of hack’n slash games with a PlatinumGames flavor, that convinces with its multiplayer and variety of characters, but falls short in the ambition of its main story.

    The additions are not likely to be enough for those who own the original episode, especially with so many rivals on PS3. However, it is a very recommendable option on PS Vita.

    Still a step behind the classics, but a fantastic title for a team that doesn’t have much experience. A great game for Soulslike fans.

    Scarlet Nexus shines thanks to its combat and universe, but it feels like it should have been more ambitious, particularly with the depth of the combat and the level design.

    Turbo Kid blends nostalgia with fresh mechanics in this outstanding metroidvania, offering a post-apocalyptic world filled with engaging challenges and memorable characters. Its synthwave soundtrack and diverse gameplay, including bike riding and intense combat, make it a standout experience. However, its old-school save system may frustrate some players, but overall, Turbo Kid delivers a compelling adventure that captures the essence of the cult film it's based on.

    It is the best sports manager we've have right now. There are not so many additions as we used to see a few years ago, but still a step forward forward the franchise.

    Card Shark is incredibly original and, even if sometimes that originality backfires, overall it’s a remarkable game full of good ideas.
