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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
