Shadow of the Tomb Raider is an excellent action and adventure title. The stealth mechanics present are great, the possibilities of approach are also very good and the technical part deserves all the compliments possible. The graphics are amazing and the sound effects are one of the best I have ever experienced on PS4. These two factors combined create a simply incredible ambience. Finally, the optional content continues to be quite vast. However, the story isn't so great, as well as certain side quests.

Brawlout is a simple fighting title that features mechanics clearly inspired by the Super Smash Bros series, with some differences. The cast of characters has no charisma, but the guest characters (Juan, Drifter and Yooka-Laylee) are good additions. The online mode is functional with players in the same region. The biggest problem is the gameplay, which is a bit strange to get used to, especially with the impact of the attacks. If you are looking for a Smash Bros on PlayStation consoles, it is worth checking it out, but have in mind that it is an inferior version of the Nintendo brawler.

Guacamelee! 2 is a must have title.

Race Arcade is an extremely simple top-down racing game. You control different types of vehicles (even an UFO) in different championships. There is also a local multiplayer mode that can be enjoyed if you have friends who like this type of game. Considering its low price, maybe you should give it a chance. However, the game has extremely simple graphics, almost non-existent music and low level of challenge.

Koihime Enbu RyoRaiRai is a fighting game with simple mechanics. It has a basic system with interesting animations. The modes are what we should expect: Arcade with some Visual Novel in it, Training, local and online Versus. A tutorial is missing, though. The biggest problem, however, is to be an extreme niche title. This means that the online mode will always be practically empty, something problematic for the lifespan of a fighting game.

Sonic Mania was one of the best games of 2017 and Sonic Mania Plus is basically offering something more for those who are looking for more content. Encore is a solid addition, with two new playable characters, new mechanics, new special stages and challenges. The competitive four-player is also welcome. If you have not played Sonic Mania yet, the time is now.

Unravel Two is a great platform game. It presents cooperative mechanics that are excellent in two players, but that can be very well used in the single-player mode. The campaign can be relatively simple, but there are challenges that will require effort from the player(s). The downside is the few stages and the story that the game wants to tell that is not very interesting.

SEGA Genesis Classics is a great collection of Genesis games. The list is diversified and quite complete, despite the absence of certain titles, such as Sonic 3 and Sonic and Knuckles. The hub with a nostalgic look is good and the challenges are interesting, but they should be in a larger number - 1 per game, at least. The online, however, is bad.

Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection is an excellent collection to revive some special moments from classical games. The port of the Arcade games are nearly perfect and the museum is good. The Online mode, however, presents some problems in the current state, but it is still functional.

Detroit: Become Human has an excellent narrative that makes us think that the decisions we make really affect the story - even if that may be just an impression. The technical aspects are impeccable. Detroit's biggest problems are the QTEs (it's time to change that system) and certain elements of the story.

Fox n Forests is a good action and platform game that captures the vibe of the SNES games very well. It has a simple gameplay and provides a nice challenge. The problem lies in the fact that you need to replay the stages to get hidden items and gain access to new levels - this ends up getting boring.

Horizon Chase Turbo is a one way trip to the nostalgia that brazilian players feel with the SNES classic title Top Gear. With a gameplay that resembles it, but with several modern touches such as collectibles, HCT is addictive and accessible to any kind of player. The local multiplayer makes the package even more appealing. There are some letdowns though, such as the little variety of modes and the difficulty being relatively too easy.

Dragon's Crown Pro should be considered as a remaster. However, it features 4K graphics for PS4 Pro owners and a new soundtrack. Otherwise, it's the same title we saw in 2013 for PS3 and PS Vita. Like any remaster, it's worth if you have not played it until now. In this case it's even worthier because it will hardly age badly with this unique and beautiful artistic style.

The God of War series needed to be reinvented and the Santa Monica Studio team did it masterfully. The change of perspective, the fantastic graphics, the new chapter of the story and especially the addictive combat show that God of War is easily one of the best PS4 games.

Rad Rodgers is a simple platform and action game that aims to please those who miss the 90s. It has simple mechanics and non-linear stages. The biggest problems is the layout of the stages, that can confuse the player at certain points. In addition, the enemies and weapons are repetitive.

Burnout Paradise was one of the best racing games in the last generation and seemed like a title beyond its time. The remastered version still offers a game that has aged very well after 10 years and it has all the DLCs included. The only problem is that it's the same game with no new features, except graphics with better resolution. It is worth replaying it for nostalgia. If you have never played it, the time is now.

Final Fantasy XV's Royal Pack welcomes some new features. Battles with the new bosses (as well as the entire Insomnia map), the first person mode and the boat in Altissia make the package worthwhile. Unfortunately, its price doesn't justify the package.

Life is Strange: Before the Storm's Farewell Bonus Episode tells how Max said goodbye to Chloe before they meet again in Life is Strange. It is an episode that will be best enjoyed if you have played both games before. The story is touching, but we already know many things and even its end before we even begin playing. It is worth checking out because we can see more of Max and Chloe, but it is not an important episode - far from it.

When it was released, Street Fighter V featured an interesting gameplay and it was set to receive a lot of content. The first year was solid, while the second year is debatable. However, the third season has already begun in the right way with the launch of the Arcade Edition. The game got even better with the new modes and gameplay options. For those who were afraid to check out the game, it is time to do it. The only problem, for now, is the changes made to get Fight Money.

Dissidia Final Fantasy NT is a game with positive and negative points. It has a confusing gameplay in the beginning (even with its tutorial), but with dedication it becomes addictive. On the other hand, because of the three-character mechanics and if you do not have friends to play with you, it can end up being frustrating. Offline mode lacks content as well: there is an Arcade mode with a few variations and a story mode that is only advanced by playing the other modes. Finally, online mode may present lag in certain matches. In the end, like I said before, the game is very addictive: you'll want to keep playing, even if you win or lose.
