    Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
    This game was special and colorful 20 years ago and it is so now - Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door is a renewed candy that will easily draw you into a unique and exciting adventure that includes a very good plot, great graphics and soundtrack and a fun and rewarding battle system. Honestly, it's a little distressing to remember the fact that Nintendo is asking for a full price tag for this game, even though it's a remaster of an existing and quite old game (it's even more strange when the Metroid remake is priced at only $40), but with the amount of investment and nice additions that came to this version, the pill feels easier to swallow.

    SAND LAND
    Sand Land is for better and worse, will be Akira Toriyama's last addition to his legacy, the changes to the story with new character is very welcome, but the desert is big and will get repetitive fairly quickly, and unfortunately this will be another addition to the growing anime games that I might forget later.

    Senua's Saga: Hellblade II
    Hellblade 2 Sinua's Saga truly feels like a next-generation experience with graphics and design that leap off the screen. The combination of a fully cinematic experience and a well-crafted world fits perfectly into the game, creating a vibrant world with a decent story based on Norse mythology. However, the game mechanics are its weakest point, with very simple and easy-to-master combat and puzzle elements. I was hoping for the same epic boss battles as we saw in the first game, but unfortunately, they never materialized. Nonetheless, the fights are much more cinematic, with Instagram-worthy moments scattered throughout the game.

    Little Kitty, Big City
    Little Kitty, Big City is a simple game with an even simpler goal: to make you smile, and all we have to say is that it just succeeds in doing that. It does not pretend to reinvent the game genre it is based on or to present complex layers that combine innovative gameplay and plot. With tons of personal charm, excellent world design, and truly exceptionally witty writing, this little cat honestly earns its place on the games shelf.

    Stellar Blade
    Stellar Blade seems to get the wrong reputation and marketing on the internet nowadays, what we have here is a marvel of current gen graphics and feature usage on the PS5 with gameplay and world that would appeal to Nier and Souls fans alike.

    Dragon's Dogma 2
    I'm reading all the articles, the review, the praise, and while I understand the hype - this is a fantastic Dark Fantasy RPG with great combat and fun quest designs, it also has some of the most frustrating and infuriating gameplay mechanics I have seen in a while. They make Dragon's Dogma 2 feel like a soft reboot, rather than a sequel that improves on the downsides of its predecessor.

    Pepper Grinder
    Fun, smart but definitely too short - Pepper Grinder is another prime example of how innovative and fun the indie gaming community is. A project that first surfaced in 2017, because one of the most fun games of 2024 - I just wished it had more levels.

    Helldivers 2
    It is quite simply the best co-op experience i had, and a masterclass in how to handle a liver-service game in a good, honest and fair way.

    Princess Peach: Showtime!
    Princess Peach: Showtime! is short, fun and full of charm. Is it one of the best games on the Switch? Not in the slightest, but it's a nice game for children, getting into gaming for the first time.

    Persona 3 Reload
    Persona 3 is one of my all time favorites and all I wanted was a full remake for it, I got it with the beautiful P5 style as well, re recorded soundtrack and revamped character designs, this remake is a love letter to all the fans of the series.

    Horizon Forbidden West: Complete Edition
    A Fantastic port, that continues the line of incredible PlayStation games coming over to the PC. This is one of Nixxes' finest works, with an incredible set of features and graphical options, as well as being the prettiest version of the prettiest game on PS5.

    Rise of the Ronin
    While it is not loaded with the fine depth of Red Dead Redemption 2 or the amazing variety of missions of The Witcher 3, Team Ninja's first open-world take is still an excellent experience, mainly because of its spectacular combat system.

    Berserk Boy
    With the good outweighing the bad, Berserk Boy is another good game for an indie industry that isn't afraid to try put out fun and small games. It does need ironing out in some places but all in all, this is a great game.

    Skull and Bones
    Who would've thought that in 2024 we would actually get Skull & Bones, after 11 years in the oven and it still feels incomplete, unserious and it is pretty boring. Whoever is looking for a fun pirate experience, can already find it elsewhere.

    WWE 2K24
    Another year, another good WWE 2K game. After 2K20, we really shouldn't take that for granted, and it looks like the devs don't too - the gameplay is fun, the new additions are great and the MyRise and MyGM modes are better than ever. The WrestleMania showcase mode is the best we've had in a while, but next time - drop the objectives.

    Final Fantasy VII Rebirth
    What an amazing experience this was. As a fan of Open World games, I got to experience one of the densest and most fun open worlds in the past few years. As a Final Fantasy VII fan, I got to see one of my childhood games being fully realized with new cinematic cutscenes, bosses and more.

    Penny's Big Breakaway
    I know that this game has some downsides, especially in its subpar beginning stages, but the latter ones are so polished, so fun to play, and work so well with the incredible platforming skills and controls of the game, that I just must go with my heart here and give it one of the highest praises I can give a game: It's just so much fun.

    Balatro
    Go play one of the most addicting Roguelite games in the last couple of years, and don't you dare say that the gaming industry lacks creativity and fun ideas. Much like in the beginning of 2023, the indie scene is outdoing itself.

    Mario vs. Donkey Kong
    This remake maybe isn't the one we were hoping for, but it is a good and faithful one, sitting tightly in the "this is just how I remembered it was" category, all while adding some new features, game modes and worlds.

    Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth
    Like a Dragon Infinite Wealth is probably the clearest torch passing there was in the series, if I thought the last game did it already, now it is very clear that Ichiban will carry the torch forward for the golden boy of this series Kiryu.

    Tekken 8
    Tekken 8 is an example of a game living up to it's own hype. With a fantastic roster of warriors, amazing single and multi-player modes, great online connectivity and incredible graphics and sound, Tekken 8 solidifies itself as one of the best in the business and an excellence of execution.

    The Last of Us Part II Remastered
    A great new version of a great game. The graphical aspect of this remaster takes a backseat to some excellent additions to the gameplay, and nice bonuses for fans of the original PS4 classic.

    Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown
    The Prince of Persia gets its first game in a very long time, and what a triumphant return that it. With great combat, fluid motion, great map design and other fantastic gameplay elements, this game elevates itself and stands out in the landscape of Metroidvania games. What an excellent beginning to 2024.

    Laika: Aged Through Blood
    There is no simple way to say this, Laika: Aged Through Blood is an extremely flawed masterpiece, but a masterpiece nonetheless. An amazing, and at times unforgettable experience that fell short by bad controls and some poor level design.

    Trinity Fusion
    With my last game review of 2023, I'm getting to review a solid 2D action game, with great foundations that is hindered by its rogue-lite mechanics (but not by much). Great work by Angry Mob Games.

    Pokemon Scarlet / Pokemon Violet: The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero - Part 2: The Indigo Disk
    Graphically, it's still a poor experience, with a very weird design and bad technical aspects. But the overall experience was nice - the upgraded difficulty was a welcome change, and I had a ton of fun watching my favorite Pokémon come back.

    Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora
    While the game isn't reaching the same heights as the Sarentu Na'vi we're playing, it's still, somehow, one of the best experiences I've had in 2023. This is, without a doubt, the best showcase for the Snowdrop Engine.

    Super Mario RPG
    While the combat is a bit dated and a bit on the easy side - it's still fun and it complements how great the story, characters, and music are. Couple all those with one of the best-looking games on the platform and you get one hell of a remake.

    The Last Faith
    This is a great first attempt by Kumi Souls Games, and as long as they continue working on the unpolished parts of the game, and keep the aesthetic approach and good VA, they'll do just fine.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III
    The snowball that started rolling in Black Ops: Cold War has reached its biggest form, which is basically its lowest point yet. A game that's good on the surface but is laced with the constant feeling of disrespect to its fans and consumers. How the mighty have fallen.
