7.5 / 10.0 - Kao the Kangaroo
May 8, 2022

Kao the Kangaroo probably won't be remembered as a classic in a few years, but it was worth the experience and is recommended for anyone looking for a good 3D platform game to pass the time while relieving themselves of the routine stress of everyday life.

Even though there are many people who don't like the original anime, Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet does a good job of being a quality game that can please even those people. Beautiful graphics, good relationship systems, interesting combat. There are many good points here, compared to the few flaws. Overall, it's a good game based on a popular anime, so everyone wins.

Dragon Ball FighterZ is really good. It's the only fighting game out there that can appeal to all types of audiences, even those who don't like fighting games or Dragon Ball – believe me. It's fast-paced, beautiful and easy to learn. If that wasn't enough, there are also many extras and fun modes. The only exception, perhaps, is the story mode, which is a bit boring and too tiring over time. Still, it's a great title and, from now on, a candidate for the best of the year.

5 / 10.0 - Creeping Terror
Dec 6, 2017

With clear inspirations from iconic survival horror games, such as Resident Evil and Clock Tower, Creeping Terror is an attempt to pay homage and rescue the old model of the genre in a more gentle way for new players, but it ends up sabotaging what it sets out to do. While the game is entirely based on chases, it gives the player enough resources to avoid going through them without much pressure. This destroys any tension created, making each encounter with Shovel Man become more silly and irrelevant. The immersion of the scenarios, the story and its characters is lost amid the standardization of situations and the ease of getting out of them.

Despite featuring fewer games than the first collection, Legacy Collection 2 makes up for it with longer and more diverse titles, offering good value for the price charged. The high difficulty, a trademark of the series, remains intact, requiring patience and skill even from veterans.

9 / 10.0 - Splatoon 2
Aug 2, 2017

Splatoon 2 is a highly recommended game if you have a Nintendo Switch at home. Although the console lacks other famous shooters on the market, it offers one of the most fun and unique games in the genre. And this sequel is even more complete and addictive.

Everything is so natural in Horizon Zero Dawn that it almost feels strange. You play, play, play and never get tired. You only stop playing because you remember you have other things to do, but it's easy to get lost in the game's fluid gameplay and graphics, which are, yes, amazing. Guerrilla stepped out of its comfort zone by leaving Killzone aside and betting on a completely different game. What we saw in Horizon left us speechless and we hope to see the experience repeated in an eventual sequel.

8.5 / 10.0 - Watch Dogs 2
Nov 27, 2016

Watch Dogs 2 was what the series needed to get rid of the bitter taste of the first one. The game was remade from scratch and rethought as a “first adventure”, despite the number coming soon after. It has references to the original, but does everything differently and better, starting with the more charismatic protagonist. Good graphics, an interesting soundtrack and excellent voice acting complete the package. If you don’t mind repetitive missions, go ahead and start hacking.

8.5 / 10.0 - NBA 2K17
Oct 20, 2016

Although we haven't noticed a huge graphical improvement compared to the last game, NBA 2K17 manages to be eye-catching in a positive way and please fans of the sport. This year's additions were spot on, improvements are always welcome and the gameplay is completely enjoyable and fits very well with the PS4 or Xbox One controls and does its job well. NBA 2K17 deserves its current position as market leader and shouldn't be leaving it any time soon, since there is no rival of the same caliber currently available – even though some have tried. In the meantime, the public is grateful.

8.5 / 10.0 - Guitar Hero Live
May 20, 2016

Guitar Hero Live is a successful attempt to revive the franchise with an original and innovative approach, mixing traditional gameplay with new mechanics and modes like Guitar Hero TV. The addition of the actual show and the interaction with the audience provide a unique experience. However, the change in controls can be difficult to get used to, and the extra charge model in Guitar Hero TV can be a hindrance. For fans of the series, the game offers a refreshing experience, but it may not be revolutionary enough for those who were expecting something even newer.

Hitman GO: Definitive Edition is a smart, accessible, and visually appealing game that does its job well: offering a light-hearted puzzle experience themed around the Hitman franchise. It's not a deep or immersive adaptation of the series, but rather a creative reinterpretation. With an affordable price and complete content, it's worth it for those looking for something different and relaxing.

Hitman is a solid, fun game that is true to the essence of the franchise. The freedom that the player has to plan and execute assassinations is its greatest asset. However, the fragmented launch, technical issues and dependence on an online connection prevent the game from reaching its full potential right from the start. If you are a fan of the series or are curious to get to know the franchise, it is worth playing – as long as you are aware of the current limitations. For the more patient, it may be better to wait for the full version or a price drop.

Tom Clancy’s The Division is a solid game, with a well-executed cooperative approach, an immersive world, and captivating RPG mechanics. At the same time, it suffers from an excessive reliance on online play, missions that discourage solo play, and the weight of unfulfilled visual promises. It doesn’t revolutionize the genre, but it doesn’t disappoint either — it’s a game made to be played with friends, with a focus on teamwork and gradual growth. For those who enjoy this style of game, The Division offers hours of tactical and engaging fun. For those looking for a more intimate campaign or a shooter with a narrative focus, this might not be the best choice.

Even for those who have never seen an episode of Naruto, Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 is an extremely competent and captivating game. Its stunning visuals, solid combat system and quality voice acting make it one of the best — if not the best — games based on the Naruto universe. For fans, it's a must-have. For newcomers, it's an excellent entry point.

7.5 / 10.0 - Far Cry Primal
Feb 29, 2016

For fans of the franchise, Far Cry Primal still offers a solid experience, with competent gameplay and an intriguing setting. It's a game that delivers what it promises: a Far Cry set in the Stone Age. But precisely because it's so committed to the reality of the time, it sacrifices some of the fun and variety that made the previous games so memorable. Perhaps if it had been released as a cheaper expansion or spin-off, as was the case with Blood Dragon, it would have been more warmly received. Still, it's a curious addition to the franchise and a good choice for those looking for something different, even if it doesn't have any major surprises.
