9 / 10.0 - Tales of Arise
Sep 30, 2021

Tales of Arise is a clear evolution of the series' formula, with deeper scenarios and graphics that breathe newness! The more intuitive gameplay, combined with a very competent AI, allows you to enjoy an experience that enhances the interiorization of the plot and characters of this world. Even though it presents a level of difficulty above the average for the series, the challenge presented proves to be gratifying for the player, as the recurring feeling is of justice in the result of our efforts. The future is bright and Tales of Arise may well be the title that will elevate this franchise to the highest levels of the video game market, in a deserved position of greater prominence and recognition.

The Guerrilla Games team managed to create an experience that is clearly characterized as a natural evolution of the first game. In Horizon Forbid West we are rewarded with exactly all the fans of the first game wish for: deeper characterization of Aloy ; an expansion of the post-apocalyptic world; concise plot development; guaranteed beautiful graphics; and of course, more machines to hunt! The capacity and security of the part of the studio, are notorious and in order to provide an experience that meets what we wished for!

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is a solid entry in the series that, while not exactly reformulating, manages to evolve in essential points. The player is given a revealing experience that manages to evoke essential questions of our condition as human beings. Overall, it's an essential title for any video game lover and a must for JRPG lovers. If you've played previous titles in the series, you'll know what to expect... if not, get ready for a roller coaster of emotions!

Return to Monkey Island is above all a return to the origins of the series. They say that lightning never strikes the same place twice, but Ron Gilbert and Dave Grossman managed to create an experience that in every way evokes the feelings conveyed by the original titles. Let's hope that Guybrush's adventures (these new adventures) don't stop there! We suspect that there are still many stories behind this infamous secret!

Future Redeemed served primarily to “put the dots in the i's”, but it would be unfair to say that that's all this latest DLC for Xenoblade Chorincles 3 is. Above all, it is a culmination of several elements and mechanics of this series that leaves us to ponder its future with very positive expectations. For the most attentive and knowledgeable of the global plot, the final chapter of this DLC opens up immense possibilities, making it impossible not to be anxious about what could come in the future. If you're a fan of JRPGs this is a series you can't miss!

9 / 10.0 - Diablo IV
Jun 16, 2023

Diablo IV is an excellent game with huge potential for healthy growth, and with two expansions already announced! Blizzard has always accustomed us to engaging and passionate stories and it also does not disappoint with this new title which, in addition to the enormous graphic quality and the excellent voice acting work, becomes something delicious. With this quality and the number of hours that we can spend on this game, the price tag on the Standard Edition turns out to be more than justified, even if for our reality it may seem a bit steep. It seems to me to be a perfect ARPG for the more casual player, who comes home and wants to relax for 2~3 hours. Alone or with others, it's a super fun and challenging experience on the highest difficulties.

Life Is Strange: True Colors is a remarkable experience for any player. It's biggest problem is effectively its legacy and need to keep up with the excellent quality of previous titles. The feeling of an experience below expectations is palpable, largely due to our expectations, a shorter story than usual and fewer locations to explore. Even so, it has some strengths: a more immersive soundtrack; a main character better characterized than in previous titles; surprising graphics and ambiance. If, by any chance, you've never played a title in this series, you will definitely be in love! If, on the other hand, you are fans of Life is Strange, we recommend entering this experience with moderate expectations and you certainly won't regret it!

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge is a true tribute to the 80's and 90's series, capable of transporting us to feelings that we affectionately keep in the back of our mind. Even more so, it manages on its own merit, to stand out as a competent beat'em up for new generations that want to try it. This is an essential title for any lover of the genre and a great way to spend an evening well spent.

Inertial Drift is an exciting game in which the player will only truly feel his adrenaline with the Switch in hand. With classic aspects in a bright, futuristic environment and with a solid story mode, without a doubt we are awarded with a arcade racing game that will marks this generation.

Shin Megami Tensei V is a solid experience of what the series can present to the player. Never taking any chances with the formula, it introduces an interesting world, but one that tends to compare too much with other releases in the same series. Some better design choices could have been considered, mainly to avoid midgame repeatability, which tended to sharply accentuate during our time with this title. For fans of the genre, it is certainly an option to consider, but do not foresee a significant evolution or a reformulation of its dynamics, as it may lead to serious disappointment.

Final Fantasy:Crisis Core Reunion is one of the best remasters I've ever played. With a completely overhauled look for today market, refined gameplay and a renowned soundtrack, it's easily one of the best RPGs of the year. Despite some details that could be worked better, this is a title that will truly delight fans and give due prominence to a great character in this world.

Persona 3 Portable is an excellent title that allows newer players, for a very affordable price, to gain access to one of the best RPGs on PlayStation 2…albeit in a “lite” version. Still, it would have made perfect sense to have been released a more complete version of this title or one witb added bonus components to this particular title (such as concept art, soundtrack, or producer commentary). However, some work by the publisher in revitalizing this particular title for the current market is notorious. If you liked Persona 5, you'll already know what to expect here: The bases where “everything” came from... in a more "Lite" way!

8 / 10.0 - Under the Waves
Sep 11, 2023

In "Under the Waves" we didn't find the graphics of Detroit Become Human or the plot that Heavy Rain develops, but I found a more solid and engaging experience as a whole. By simplifying some elements and refining others, we are faced with a solid narrative that will captivate players and easily allow us to join the character's struggle... on a personal or professional level. The developer's bet on teaming up with an organization with "on-site" knowledge of the reality and difficulties our oceans face, was a successful bet and one that we see as an example for other publishers to follow.

7.5 / 10.0 - R-Type Final 2
May 29, 2021

R-Type Final 2 is a return to the origins just like relieving an arcade experience. The old school difficulty is very present, so for players new to the genre, get ready to take a lot of beating! Still, we guarantee that you will love this space war, which offers, pretty much, the best experience of its' kind. A real ode to the old days of the arcade and an unmissable title for lovers of the genre.

7.5 / 10.0 - G-Darius HD
Oct 23, 2021

If you enjoy the genre, G.Darius HD is an experience not to be missed. One of the best and most innovative releases in the series, featuring a quality transition to 3D. This HD version, thanks to its aesthetic improvements and soundtrack typical of the saga, will grab anyone for many long hours. Whether it's to complete the game, get the best scores or complete the catalog of enemies, you can count on a pleasantly extensive experience!

The Cruel King and the Great Hero is a lovely RPG, carefully hand drawn, that presents us with a story of supplanting and growth. The players are presented with an exciting experience, even though quite elementar towards it's mechanics. The final sensation is that we are facing a fairy tale that is presented to us in a magical way. Despite the tedious random battles, the experience tends to reveal itself as captivating throughout its duration. Essentially, we consider a title that deserves to be passed by everyone at least once.

7.5 / 10.0 - Soul Hackers 2
Jan 18, 2023

Soul Hackers 2 is a solid turn-based RPG, but it fails to introduce anything new or consolidate all elements of the introduced experience. Fortunately, it features great characterization and a solid plot that keeps us on our toes throughout the game. Fans of Shin Megami Tensei will certainly be able to enjoy it, but overall there are better alternatives.

7.5 / 10.0 - Persona 5 Tactica
Jan 9, 2024

Persona 5 Tactica offers a captivating experience, but fails to introduce new and different game mechanics... something that others in the genre can do better. Still, it features a captivating narrative, on-point conceptual art and an extraordinary soundtrack. These elements in themselves help immensely in transmitting a rewarding experience to the player. However, we feel like it might be time to let our favorite thieves rest a little and embark on new adventures!
