It's Civilization VI on Nintendo Switch, virtually spotless and capable of running even better than it usually does on certain unhinged laptops. Of course, she sucks the battery like a vampire, and in the most complex games she can trudge like an old woman uphill, but having it in her pocket is an emotion that is renewed with every turn.

7 / 10.0 - Sea of Thieves
Mar 23, 2018

Sea of Thieves is a game you won't forget. Wonderful to see, amazing to listen to, unique in a group and decidedly particular on their own, Rare's pirate adventure is a thunderous experiment built by combining all the typical defects of the genre to transform them into a single extraordinary virtue. It is not a game for everyone, certainly not for those who want to feel invincible and the only vain protagonist, but it is a work that has all the credentials to become something precious.

8.6 / 10.0 - Elite: Dangerous
Jul 5, 2017

Elite Dangerous is more than a simple 'videogame': it's a mesmerizing space-simulation, which offers the player an incredible experience among the stars. The PS4 version preserves all the quality of the PC edition. It's almost a masterpiece.

Theme Park Studio doesn't offer a good alternative to Planet Coaster: the game is awful and boring, and it's a total waste of money

Crystal Rift is the only old-style dungeon crawler on PlayStation 4, and the only one to support virtual reality. It's a great kick-start for a very average game.

The work done for this year edition is commendable, in terms of contents and from a technical standpoint. The game, however, remains what it has always been: a strict simulator, that requires dedication and hard work.

This game does everything, to appear normal, the first "real game" for virtual reality; and yet paradoxically amazes less than other titles already available ofor PlayStation VR; little titles that actually appear much more in line with the technology itself, and slightly surpass the the (still) majestic Robinson the Journey.

A game deprived of its soul, shattered by a free-to-play structure that doesn't make sense, and hurriedly adapted to virtual reality.
