    As a tribute to the original is definitely good, but it might not match the standards of 2016. Depending on what you're looking for it's a good or a not-so-good option.

    Even if it’s not flawless, this still is a nice collection full of content that help new and returning players access these two “lost” games.

    This sequel improves on the original with enhanced combat, expanded exploration, and a deeper progression system, including more weapons and a crafting mechanic. While the difficulty selector makes the game more accessible, it lacks groundbreaking innovations and could have been more ambitious.

    Quantum Break is a great game, but not the groundbreaking experience you might expect from Remedy. It's so focused on the story that usually forgets about gameplay, not taking advantage of the good ideas its playable core is built upon. But don't get us wrong: Quantum Break is a very enjoyable game, with great moments and solid storytelling, but also feels like a missed opportunity for Remedy to make something better than their previous works.

    The lack of challenge and the poor level design are a little bit disappointing, but it's a game with plenty of good ideas and full of fan service. If you can forgive some irregular bits, it's definitely a recommended game.

    Super Crush K.O. is some soft of combo ‘em up, a very interesting concept that works quite well. It needs a wider variety of enemies and situations, but it’s one of those titles you want to consider if you want to try a unique action game.

    It solves many of the problems of the original game, and even though it's not perfect, it's a good choice if you're looking for a game of this genre.

    With its stunning pixel art, evocative atmosphere, and touching story told without words, Primal Planet stands out for its audiovisual excellence and unique blend of prehistory and sci-fi, yet its shallow survival mechanics, repetitive combat, poor map system, and weak translation prevent it from reaching its full potential.

    Daytona USA is a loyal remake to the mythic arcade game we loved so much in the mid-nineties. It is still as fun as ever, and adds new game modes and online play, but it is still just three tracks, and that might seem limited.

    This is a game where every aspect shows that there's a lot of effort put into it. Harder than the average title, its mix of platforming and puzzles sets a solid foundation for a beautiful experience.

    Despite some flaws, this second chapter is a solid title which will test our brains during the three or four hours it lasts.

    Hearts of Iron 3 follows the previous installments becoming the current most complete war game.
    • 77 Metascore

    It feels experimental, halfway between a platformer and a sports game, but still unique and fun. If you're looking for an original game, this can be a good choice.

    With a haunting atmosphere, clever exploration design, and strong visual personality, Hell is Us delivers a rewarding sense of discovery, though its shallow combat, repetitive enemies, and underwhelming story keep it from fully realizing its potential.

    This is a great example of what freee-to-play games should be: fun, engaging and perfectly playable for every user.

    We’ve been waiting for too long for a new antigravity racer, and Pacer delivers exactly what we wanted. Yes, it’s not the most original game, but the genre has been abandoned for so long that it’s great to have a new title like this one.

    Maybe it's not the ultimate Naruto game, but it's pretty close. There are some issues that prevent it from becoming really outstanding, but it's absolutely recommended for any fan of the adventures of the popular ninja.

    Overall Supreme Commander 2 is a good game that meets the expectations of a strategy game.

    Orwell is an amazing surprise. Clever, well-designed and thought-provoking, it's a game you don't want to miss if you've enjoyed others like Her Story.

    The fathers of Left 4 Dead are back with a true successor for the franchise that keeps the formula pretty much intact, but adds a layer of complexity to make it deeper.

    Despite its focus on exploration and strategy, Expeditions: A Mudrunner Game offers a captivating and accessible experience akin to its predecessors, yet its simpler mission design and lack of cooperative play may disappoint fans. However, its beautiful landscapes, solid performance, and extensive content make it a worthwhile adventure.

    Yakuza 3 isn’t the best entry, but it’s great to have it available on newer systems with all the content we previously lost in the West. If you like the series, don’t miss it out.

    This is a very enjoyable adventure that successfully combines something as different as playing golf and the end of humanity.

    ARMS is lots of fun, really deep and proves motion controls can be as complex and responsive as traditional ones. Unfortunately, the game doesn’t have much content, but Nintendo has promised free updates to fix that in the future.

    This collection serves as a competent preservation tool, offering impeccable technical customization and quality-of-life additions. While these DS titles represent a period of diminishing returns for the franchise, the polished interface and robust online features make it an essential acquisition for diehard fans despite the lack of local translation.

    ITTA is a cleverly designed adventure that mixes up bullet hell and exploration. It’s a little bit short, but it’s a great experience for those who are interested in a challenge.

    We’ve had such a good time playing Party Animals with friends. It definitely needs more content and new ideas, but even now it’s a great party game that anyone can play and have a great time.

    Blinking your life away is definitely one of the most interesting concepts we’ve ever seen, although the execution is a bit flawed.
