In virtual reality Village is a different game, not better. It has the limits of a retrospective conversion, from interactions with the environment to a partial reconstruction of the gameplay that, despite being functional, shows some difficulty in adapting in some situations. In the vibrant setting of a multifaceted horror, Resident Evil Village on PSVR 2, however, knows how to intimidate, stimulate, engage, and it succeeds very well.

More long-lived, rich and experimental than the other episodes, The Devil in Me concludes the first season in a somewhat discontinuous way.

The Forgotten Saga, to the detriment of what the title claims, should be remembered. Its completely free nature for all Valhalla owners is certainly the primary incentive (as well as the strongest one) to entice users to catapult themselves back into the epic stories of the Norse myth, opening wide the doors of a mode that entertains enough. This is why Havi's adventure in the realm of the dead is worth living. Again, and again, and again, if necessary.

7.7 / 10.0 - As Dusk Falls
Jul 18, 2022

Imperfect but fascinating for style and themes addressed, the adventure of INTERIOR / NIGHT wants to narrate a lot, and succeeds in a somewhat discontinuous way.

8 / 10.0 - Ghostwire: Tokyo
Mar 21, 2022

It was a real pleasure to send the Yokai back to their world. Ghostwire: Tokyo has evident qualitative failures, sometimes leaving room for a certain playful and content redundancy, but as a whole it has a charisma that we believe deserves to be rewarded, either for the evocative reconstruction of Tokyo, or for the presence of a gameplay as simple as it is compelling, or for the attention paid to the writing and symbolism that characterize the stories of the city.

7.8 / 10.0 - Martha is Dead
Feb 24, 2022

It is a cruel game, narratively imperfect, and at the same time quite courageous, as well as not very lenient towards the (very difficult and very delicate) matter it deals with.

A natural evolution of Zero Dawn, Horizon Forbidden West fulfills its mission as a sequel: to aspire to higher peaks, and reach them.

The curtain falls on the Far Cry 6 Season Pass, and not in the best way. Not particularly inspired on an artistic level, as well as endowed with a playful formula too similar to that of the first DLCs (and therefore less and less intriguing), Collapse is a content that closes the triptych of experiences in the minds of the villains with little determination.

Masterpieces that remain precious, regardless of the passage of time, like those priceless treasures to whose research Nate has dedicated his whole life.

Artistically valuable and able to provide an intriguing additional perspective to the story of Far Cry 4, Control is a DLC that adds nothing or subtracts from the playful experience of the first content of the Season Pass.

Given the redundancy of the activities and the scarce variety of situations, Insanity will offer a good amount of hours of play only to those who will be moved by the desire to improve their records or to those players dedicated to completism. Everyone else will find themselves in front of a more compelling experience on the artistic side than on the strictly playful one. Anyone who has experienced Jason's epic in Far Cry 3, however, will certainly have an extra incentive to explore Vaas' insane mind.

Now in its third act, The Dark Pictures Anthology shows the first signs of a perhaps inevitable fatigue. Wisely trying to involve and amaze the player with new stylistic gimmicks, Supermassive Games chooses to adopt a more impactful rhythm, and thus bastes another type of horror where violence takes over restlessness.

7.8 / 10.0 - Resident Evil 4 VR
Oct 20, 2021

Adapting a work like Resident Evil 4 to the logic of virtual reality must not have been an easy task. Armature succeeds in the intent, although with some inevitable compromise dictated by the age of the product and the structural limits of the game.

7.8 / 10.0 - Far Cry 6
Oct 6, 2021

Vast and long-lived, Far Cry 6 is an open world where quantity is the master: there are many playful ideas, and many customization possibilities, but often you have the impression that Ubisoft tries at all costs to never end the battle of the guerrillas, even sacrificing the finishing of the game mechanics on the altar of accumulation. Far Cry 6 is therefore a fluctuating production: moments of high narrative involvement are accompanied by others of stasis, while the gameplay oscillates between good ideas and some uncertainty in the shooting phases and in artificial intelligence.

8 / 10.0 - Impostor Factory
Oct 1, 2021

‎Impostor Factory teases and deceives, involves and alienates. It doesn't have the destabilizing power of To The Moon, nor the brain balance of Finding Paradise, but that's okay. He tells us about the innumerable emotional stratifications of reality, and he does so by choosing the path of the absurd. A quirk that soon changes its face and changes register several times, in frankly unexpected ways.‎

After completing Kena, we felt the desire not to leave these virtual lands, to continue in the heart of the forest to eliminate even the last bit of Corruption. Like the souls of the village, in short, we did not want to "go further". The magic of Bridge of Spirits is all here: in its sweet magnetism, in its balance between gameplay and narration, in the echo of those adventures of the past, where simplicity moved hand in hand with refinement. Splendid to look at and rewarding to play, Kena is a debut work as rarely seen in recent years: that the independent sector can be guided by its spirit.

The wind blowing from Iki Island, at times, knows how to be even more overwhelming than the one that crossed the horizons of Tsushima. Short but incisive, the expansion comes up with an intimate narrative, which digs even deeper into the tormented meanders of Jin's soul: it succeeds, and convinces us.

Necromunda Hired Gun rests its foot on the accelerator of dynamism and violence, however it has an inaccurate aim. Many of its problems stem from strictly technical stumbles, some of which can be filed with special updates (such as bugs or application crashes), while others are inherent in its playful DNA, and have to do with almost completely absent feedback from shots, with a coarse artificial intelligence to the far-fetched, and with a general flatness of shootings.
