Worth your time - Forza Motorsport
Oct 23, 2023

Forza Motorsport is coming back a bit lazily and not as grandly as one might expect after six years. It's still an excellent and all-around improved chapter, but it shows some signs of stagnation, such as the lifeless Career and the not-so-"revolutionary" visuals that Turn 10 promised during the title's marketing campaign. In conclusion and in very simple words, those of you who have played Forza Motorsport 7 know more or less what to expect. One thing's for sure, if you love Forza Motorsport, you'll love this too.

Phantom Liberty is CD Projekt RED's big apology to everyone, but it's also the imposition of an evil stubbornness that runs through the company and, more importantly, its developers. The expansion is one of the best experiences you'll have this year, even if you didn't like the original game. It's a chant that can be heard from Poland from all corners of the gaming planet. Now is the right and proper time to enjoy Cyberpunk 2077. And keep your eyes on Songbird! Protect it at all costs!

Masterpiece - Starfield
Sep 14, 2023

Starfield is a grandiose, overambitious game that doesn't win you over quickly, but when it does, it does so in a bombastic way. It is a huge journey, full of experiences, full of stories, against the backdrop of vast space and the common denominator of man, his beliefs, his ideals and his passionate need to know what is out there. Defects, The shortcomings and complaints are outweighed by the rest of the total, since at the end of the day, you crave the time to open your console, your PC and discover a little more of this universe. Give it your time, take off company labels, ignore marketing and silly console wars. Starfield is a great game not to be missed.

Resident Evil 4 Remake is undeniably one of the best remakes we've seen in recent years and one of the cases that helped to show even to the most skeptical (yes, I'm talking about me) the greatness of Sinji Mikami and his then golden team's work. Without get rid all of its vulnerabilities, the remake brings one of the greatest video games of all time beautifully into 2023.

Atomic Heart is not the Soviet BioShock, as many are quick to label it, because to "be" BioShock, you need to do everything as well as Irrational Games' masterpiece did. However, it's a game that very much wants to be like BioShock and indeed in many parts it draws clear influences from the creation of Kevin Levine. So, those of you who like this kind of "thinking FPS", with strange content and setting that your eye is not used to, you may find something very interesting in Atomic Heart, which is already leaving its touch in the industry for many pleasant and also for many not so pleasant reasons.

The Callisto Protocol is a game that can be divisive. I think that fans of the genre, like myself, will accept and enjoy it, since overall it gives an decent sci-fi survival horror adventure, which does not reinvent the wheel, but knows how to win over space horror fans. The rest of you who aren't crazy about the theme and setting would do well to stay away as there are better games out there to invest your time and money into.

Worth your time - Signalis
Nov 13, 2022

Signalis is an indie triumph, a grand tribute to the golden age of survival horror, with a "small body" but a "huge soul". It is a game that will plunge players deep into dark paths of the human soul and bathe them in emotions that will touch them like few games. You shouldn't miss it!

Masterpiece - God of War Ragnarök
Nov 3, 2022

God of War: Ragnarok is the definition of a sequel and the ultimate advertisement for what videogames have come to. It's the block buster that puts to shame similar productions in other entertainment industries.

A Plague Tale: Requiem is a game with an identity crisis, something that can't be said about Innocence. The sequel tries to do something that it ultimately can't and that, at least personally, I don't want it to do. It's not a bad game and it certainly offers an interesting adventure, but unfortunately it doesn't take that step that I expected.

Worth your time - Return to Monkey Island
Oct 6, 2022

Return to Monkey Island is the "big" dot in a "small", sweet franchise of our memories. Monkey Island has grown within us, grown with us. These aren't games that can easily captivate anyone today. A little poorer than what one expects from a finale, a little special in its aesthetics, but at least it's as crazy, as innocent and as clever as before. So I say goodbye to the most beautiful memory of my childhood with a tear and a smile. See you at sea old friend Guybrush…

Worth your time - Stray
Jul 18, 2022

Stray doesn't try to impress anyone, it's not full of fanfare, neither gameplay, nor design, and ultimately delivers a genuinely silent adventure with a Playdead-esque approach. It is a spare, thoughtful, smart and modern video game that questions, worries and sounds the alarm in a quiet and down-to-earth way. The title of the small French studio is not just a game starring a cat. It's something so much more that this year it's going to feature on many best games of 2022 lists…

Masterpiece - Elden Ring
Mar 4, 2022

The Elden Ring, at first, fails to describe itself and you feel that it is losing part of the Souls temperament but very quickly it gives you the biggest awareness slap you have received from a video game. Until you recover, you have entered deeply and violently into the most important and immersive world that the medium has known in recent years.

Worth your time - Dying Light 2 Stay Human
Feb 3, 2022

Dying Light 2: Stay Human is basically a good game, but with weaknesses. Many times it loses its orientation, suffers from repetition, the script has ups and downs but it continues to be an enjoyable RPG, with solid mechanisms, endless content to explore and intense moments of stress. Fans of zombies and the first Dying Light, should invest.

Worth your time - Halo Infinite
Dec 6, 2021

I dare to say that this is the real and promising return of Halo. The game is not perfect, the open world has many weaknesses, while some things like co-op are absent, at least during the release. However, the campaign is well-written, well-structured and well-crafted. After much outcry and endless questioning by all of us, 343 Industries and Microsoft seem to have succeeded…

Worth your time - Metroid Dread
Nov 1, 2021

Metroid: Dread is not only a good game, but it's also a great Metroid. This is an important moment for one of the longest-running franchises in the history of the medium, which we hope will mark the much-deserved comeback of the series. <br />

Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut is not just an upgraded version of Sucker Punch's excellent game, but it also brings to the table some very welcome additions. Apart from the technical improvements, it stands out for the new, very interesting main story expansion that I think every fan of the base game should experience.

Worth your time - Returnal
May 2, 2021

Returnal is an inhospitable, hardcore and highly addictive rogue like shooter that is a contender for game of the year early on. Unfortunately, it is not a title that everyone can enjoy, since it belongs to a very "difficult" category that requires a lot of dedication from the players. In addition, I consider it a bad move by Sony to price this release at €80, not because it is not worth it, but because this amount is not consistent with the indie heart that beats inside...

Worth your time - It Takes Two
Apr 9, 2021

Το It Takes Two, χωρίς να είναι αψεγάδιαστο, είναι κατά την άποψή μου το "τέλειο" βιντεοπαιχνίδι. Εκτός από ένα ξέφρενο, πλούσιο, εθιστικό και καλοστημένο gameplay, πραγματεύεται ένα πολύ ευαίσθητο και σοβαρό θέμα και το επικοινωνεί χειρουργικά και με αριστουργηματικό τρόπο. Μπορώ με ευκολία να πω πως θέτει ήδη υποψηφιότητα για να μπει στις λίστες με τα καλύτερα παιχνίδια της τρέχουσας χρονιάς και αδιαμφισβήτητα είναι το καλύτερο co-op παιχνίδι που θα παίξετε τελευταία! Τα ζευγάρια και δει, τα ζευγάρια με παιδί(ά), παίξτε το.

Caution - The Medium
Feb 17, 2021

The Medium is a Silent Hill tribute, trying to keep the survival horror genre alive in the absolutely old-fashioned way; during the approximately 6-7 hours it lasts, you will see an interesting script, superficial character presentation, some beautiful set pieces and ambitious mechanisms that, however, scrape and do not go deeper; it is not a bad game and of course I suggest it to fans of the genre.
