8 / 10.0 - Foregone
Oct 19, 2020

Despite not innovating in much, the gameplay and the freedom provided to build the protagonist's skills are two extremely relevant points to consider Foregone a great addition to the platform action genre. Players who like to collect better and better equipment and seek a moderate level of challenge will be very well served here.

Speed and adrenaline are the fuel that makes Star Wars: Squadrons a must-have game not only for Star Wars fans, but for those who are also looking for a solid PvP combat experience in which skill will be the real differentiator to take your fighter squadron to victory.

Mafia: Definitive Edition is easily one of the best remakes ever released and remains the best in the trilogy. A great choice for those who prefer a well constructed and tied narrative, added to a gameplay that, although not perfect, does not take away the renewed shine of this classic.

Amid so many independent titles that feature deep narratives or gameplay with peculiarities that set them apart, Zombie Driver: Immortal Edition does not innovate in either of these aspects, focusing even on what a game needs to offer: fun.

Doraemon: Story of Seasons is great for veterans of the “farm” genre, especially those that come from other titles in the Harvest Moon / Story of Seasons series. Players who like to challenge themselves to find better and more efficient ways to manage their farm will have a lot of fun here, especially with the hel of Doraemon's peculiar gear, and the art direction and soundtrack make this task very enjoyable.

8 / 10.0 - Party Hard 2
Sep 10, 2020

With simple and intuitive controls, Party Hard 2 proves to be a competent, honest sequence and, despite the gratuitous violence, a fun game for those who enjoy experiences that require a touch of strategy and creativity from the player.

Disappointed. That feeling sums up well what I felt with a game that could finally present an experience better adapted to the current systems. Whoever had the opportunity to play the original on the GameCube and looked forward to Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Remastered Edition to have an improved experience, sorry but, being very sincere, you will not have a good time. The game remains a charismatic and cute adventura, but several things get in the way, resulting in a dungeon crawler that is difficult to play with friends.

Mobile Suit Gundam: Extreme VS. Maxiboost ON represents well the legacy of a series respected by a legion of fans of the mecha genre. Anyone who doesn't enjoy it a lot might find it strange and even discouraged from playing it as the controls take a while to master and get used to, which will generate that basic frustration of “I don't know how to play this”.

9 / 10.0 - Cuphead
Aug 5, 2020

Cuphead's arrival on PlayStation 4 is an excellent addition to the console library, providing one of the largest communities of the current generation also has access to this excellent game. Another interesting point about this launch is that now all players will be able to enjoy the upcoming DLC, called Delicious Last Course, which still has no confirmed release date, but which is still scheduled for this year, promising to pull out what remains of the hair of our heads.

Fun and addictive, SUPERHOT: MIND CONTROL DELETE expands the experience of the original SUPERHOT, making it what we might call the ‘definitive version’ of a modern classic.

9 / 10.0 - F1 2020
Jul 22, 2020

F1 2020, with its presentation that faithfully reproduces the transmission of another weekend of Formula 1, takes the lead as one of the best games of the genre this year. With a more refined gameplay for those who are veterans of the franchise and very friendly for those who are not very close to simulators or have never ventured into the genre, we have here a strong candidate for the best racing game of 2020.

A heresy for me to belittle the historical value of these two excellent games. I think that everyone who has not been able to play them at some point in life has here one of the best opportunities today to make them. However, Castlevania Requiem: Symphony of the Night & Rondo of Blood, as a product, is a terrible job by Konami. I dare say that it is a lazy way for the company to earn more money on such a valuable and important franchise. We have no additional content to add value to the package. The game's exclusivity to PS4 is also questionable. Personally, I don't see any reasons to prevent the release of ‘Requiem’ for other platforms such as PC or even the Switch, which would be a great addition to the console library due to its portability.

6 / 10.0 - Warborn
Jun 30, 2020

Warborn is a competent title in its presentation and gameplay but its proposal is disappointing due to serious execution flaws. I emphasize that it is an excellent game for those who do not know the genre or prefer a very light experience in tactical games by turns. But proposing something more than the campaign and leaving something to be desired was disappointing. It could have a little place in the sun beside big names but it is better to remain in the shade so as not to suffer from heat stroke until you solve these problems and show your real potential.

6 / 10.0 - Disintegration
Jun 29, 2020

For a project with veteran people in the market, a small team, and being the studio's debut game, I think Disintegration was a good start for V1 Interactive but with points that deserve attention to please a larger audience. It also has a very cool science fiction narrative, with characters presenting strong and very characteristic personalities. I think it would even make a good series for Netflix. A new approach to gameplay mixing two very different genres, with a multiplayer mode which even if it doesn't have the best service, can improve, make this an interesting title for those who like new things..

The game that can define this generation. The Last of Us Part II is a story of revenge and the feeling of hatred and its foundation is fueled by violence and the values ​​of the human being in a world that struggles to survive on itself. Other equally strong feelings also support this intense narrative, such as fear, obsession and mercy.

Shantae and the Seven Sirens knew how to take advantage of all that the current platforms have to offer, providing beautiful graphics, simple and intuitive gameplay and great performance. However, the feeling I've got from playing is that WayForward preferred to rely more on the popularity and charisma of the character in order to sell his game, instead to dare a little more and deliver something really new. The game in general is not bad, but the impression left is that it has not evolved, something that should be natural for a franchise that reached the fifth title.

6.5 / 10.0 - Defunct
May 19, 2020

Defunct is a simple game at all. Although not very appealing for other aspects such as visuals and sounds the fluid gameplay has its adrenaline moments when you get the hang of it, providing very fun moments at high speed. Ironically, it is an interesting title for those who want a “slow down” on life or from other games.

8.5 / 10.0 - Void Bastards
May 12, 2020

Void Bastards has many merits, despite sinning in one way or another. It is an excellent title for those who enjoy a good roguelike. Anyone who is more adept at the action characteristic of other FPS’ may be a little disappointed as the focus here is greater on strategy and item management that guarantee the player's survival for longer with a single character.

Curious Expedition presents a simple idea, very well explored and executed. Each player's action, from the moment the expedition leader is chosen, can be decisive for the success or failure of the group, making each game unique, making it last from twenty minutes to two hours. The number of variants along with the procedural mechanics that the game presents, surprises the player every time he starts it, challenging himself to get further and win as many times as he can.

One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4 shows once again why it is one of the best game series of the Straw Hat Pirates. The action experience of the pirates in the musou genre is one of the best that presents what One Piece has to offer in quantity and quality. In this fourth entry we have more than a sequel, showing a more technically and graphically refined product, with easy and pleasant gameplay, fun but challenging for those who like to play with high difficulty.
