The battle system leaves a lot to be desired, but that's really the only bad thing I can say about this game. We waited for a really great Paper Mario game for more than a decade, and here it is.

Middle Earth: Shadow of War can be defined as “The game Shadow of Mordor should have been.” The game is good and fun on the one hand, its new and improved Nemesis and Gear systems are wonderful and make its epic combats even better, especially the siege battles. On the other hand, the game suffers from a bad narrative and wrong division to acts, despite its great plot, and the many side missions begin to feel repetitive at some point.

Judgment is too afraid to let go of its defining "Yakuza" features, pushing detective gameplay to the side to let the combat mechanics shine. Its story is gripping and very enjoyable, running alongside the extra side content which is full of heart and entertainment. Give Judgment a shot, whether you're a die-hard Yakuza fan, or a newbie to the franchise.

It's great to see Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game back in action on our consoles, and the game has aged great. It's still one of the best beat-em-up games you can find on consoles today.

Same good game, but with a few extra features and modes that make it better than the Wii Original while giving platforming veterans a challenge the main game won't.

This is the best way to play the original Gears of War, hands down, yet simple upgrades to the AI and sound design could have gone a long way to make this a great remaster.

Prey is a fine experience that while engaging and fun, has its fair share of downsides and faults. The story could be more complex and deeper than the shallow story that was presented to us and the PS4 load times can be really frustrating at times. But the gameplay is fun, and the story, while shallow, is still engaging.

Yes, yes - New Pokémon Snap is probably the best Pokémon game a fan of the franchise could play on the Nintendo Switch. But to be honest, I think that this game is better suited for all those who think that Pokémon is only a kids monster collecting and battling game. It does such a good job at making you feel how big and wonderful is the Pokémon world, and for that it deserves praise.

While it might be considered as a small and insignificant game for some, those of you who'll choose to invest your time in Discounty will find a satisfying and cozy managment sim that might not provide a big challenge or captivating story, but will surely keep you addicted to its gameplay.

Hob is a good game, even if a bit flawed. The platforming is not as good as the combat and the puzzles, and you can sometimes get lost in the world. But even with those problems the beautiful world and good soundtrack does make up for it’s shortcomings. Hob is a good game that PS4 owners with some time on their hand and an itch for a Zelda-like adventure should pick up.

While not on the same level as Spider-Man: Miles Morales and Demon's Souls, this launch title is still a banger and a very good platformer, even though it has its numerous shortcomings.

Nobody Saves the World is a masterclass in the gameplay perspective. It has a unique and clever way of making the rather overwhelming gameplay mechanics into something easy to understand and extremely fun. While it has a lackluster story, and a weird beginning and ending, the fascinating world succeed in making you forget those things, and keep playing with your knife throwing turtle or your fire breathing horse.

Elden Ring: Nightreign is a fascinating, albeit uneven, experiment. While its fast-paced, pure gameplay moments are some of FromSoftware's best, these highs are often undercut by puzzling decisions, including an overly random progression system and the baffling omission of multiplayer. Despite offering an addictive and challenging twist on the familiar formula, impressively translating the atmosphere and world of Elden Ring into a new format, the unpolished roguelike elements and lack of a multiplayer support prevent it from reaching the heights of its predecessor. Ultimately, it's a must-play for dedicated fans seeking a new and distinct challenge, yet it might not be the ideal entry point for newcomers to the Lands Between.

I never thought I would actually recommend a first person shooter that runs in 720p and below that and in 30FPS, but here I am actually liking the game. Doom is still Doom with the fast paced action we all know and love and the great music and OST. It's true that there are some framerate and audio issues with the game but still, kudos to Panic Button for creating this amazing port.

Chaotic, fast, and furious are three words that perfectly describe Kirby Air Riders. What we have here is a racing game that’s anything but standard—one that breaks many of the conventions we’ve come to know and love about this long-standing genre. Fortunately, for the vast majority of the time, this game’s differences compared to its competitors in the genre manage to spark genuine interest and plenty of enjoyment. Make no mistake—this is still quite a niche title that definitely won’t appeal to everyone, but for those who choose to dive into its madness and chaos, a uniquely engaging and deeply satisfying experience awaits.

Horizon: Call of the Mountain is the most beautiful game available for VR these days. It brings some great new elements but could've leveled up a bit better in other game aspects.

The game looks miles better than its PS4 and Xbox One counterparts, but a fresh coat of paint and better animations can't fix the biggest issue NBA 2K21 and every other 2K game in the past 4 or 5 years have: Microtransactions.

Star Wars Squadrons managed to surpass my expectations, it’s not a perfect game but it gets the job done. I don’t feel entitled to praise EA for not including micro transactions, but I want to believe it means they’ve learned their lesson. They saw an opportunity and took it and I hope they can add more to it.

A perfectly good Mosu game with some of your favorite Zelda characters that provides great action with a nice expansion to the world of TOTK.

Metal: Hellsinger VR is a fairly well ported game of the fun rhythm shooter game from 2 years ago, with some mechanical issues aside, if you haven't experienced the original release and are into VR gaming, I highly recommend you give this one a chance.

Civilization VII is a great game, it looks phenomenal and is packed with content like only this game series can deliver. If you've always wanted to learn this game series but found it too intimidating, this is the game you've been waiting for. The seventh game in the series simplifies and makes things much more accessible and is relatively easy to learn. On the other hand, it also adds new things like the crisis system and small improvements all across the board. But not everything is perfect with serious bug issues, the controversial era system and the noticeable absence of many leaders and personalities.

Don't get it twisted - Wild Hearts is, by all means, a Monster Hunter clone. But dare I say it - it's one of the best ones. Some faults are mitigated by excellent combat and the incredible Karakuri mechanic.

This is the best Call of Duty in years, with great multiplayer and an awesome campaign (even though it doesn’t live up to its fullest potential). The game reminds me of Modern Warfare with an emphasis on a moving and meaningful story coupled with addicting multiplayer action creating a satisfying and wholesome shooting experience.

Detroit: Become Human is a masterpiece of storytelling, perfectly executed and beautiful. The acting is superb, the action is intense and the tears are already dropping.

River City Girls 2 tries to take the Beat-em-up genre to the next level with a plethora of improvements that for the most part pay off greatly. What an incredible game by WayForward.

This is hands down, the best Musou game for the Switch, and a great action title. The music is fantastic, the action is crisp and fast paced, the theme of a great war is preserved throughout the game and the story has an interesting take on the famous war of Breath of the Wild. If it wasn't for the Switch being a weaker platform, hampering it's looks and performance, this may have been a game of the year contender.

While Mind Control Delete is a good expansion with a few clever ideas, it does fall short in some ways, mainly it's rougelike parts.

Dune: Awakening initially felt like generic survival fare but surprised with its authentic recreation of Herbert's universe in an alternate timeline where Paul Atreides never existed. The game excels at polishing familiar survival-crafting mechanics within the rich Dune lore, featuring dynamic world changes, player politics, and meaningful resource scarcity where water truly matters. While hampered by restrictive inventory management and limited progression for non-PvP players, it succeeds as an immersive licensed experience rather than a genre innovator.
