Bayonetta Origins is a game thats charming in every way. The original gameplay and the beautiful color palette used make it a perfect fit for the Switch. It is a must have on the console that deserves to be viewed as much more than a simple spin-off of the other series.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is a great success that met my expectations, even though they were very high. It's impressive to see how the developers have managed to integrate the open-world aspect while modernizing it. What's more, the quantity and quality of the secondary activities make discovering the universe more fun than ever. And it's all done naturally, allowing us to constantly improve our team. Last but not least, everything complements the excellent story, which will leave no one indifferent. It's definitely a contender for Game of the Year, honoring the excellence of the original work.

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart mixes heart and humour in a very action driven adventure beautifully modernized for the new generation. The gameplay will completely engage you with a collection of very diversified weapons and well executed plateforming elements. If you were waiting for a system seller, this is the one. It uses the DualSense fully with haptic feedback and the adaptative triggers as well as the 3D Audio which put together truly give the feeling of a next-gen experience. It will definitely be amongs your favorite games of the year.

9.5 / 10.0 - Metroid Dread
Oct 12, 2021

Metroid Dread dives us in a long awaited sequel which does not dissapoint. I really enjoyed the pace of the action which connects bosses quickly with a good level of difficulty. Despite the many Metroidvania that have been released in recent years, the original series is still kind in 2021. Nintendo is taking the series in the right direction and I can't wait to dive into Metroid Prime 4.

9.5 / 10.0 - Halo Infinite
Dec 6, 2021

It feels good to find Master Chief in an episode that lives up to expectations with a deeper story and a universe bigger than ever. Above all, as a shooter, Halo Infinite is expertly executed and pushes the boundaries of the series in the right direction. In my opinion, the game has a lot to offer fans of the series and hopefully it will open new door to spawn a whole new generation of Halo fans.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 delivers an epic journey with great characters, an amazing story and refined combats that make it the greatest of the series. You will lose dozens of hours exploring its humongous world and despite too many long loading screens in the second half of the game, it's definitely a Nintendo Switch must play.

9.5 / 10.0 - Bayonetta 3
Oct 28, 2022

Bayonetta 3 delivers one of the best adventures of the year. This is all thanks to highly satisfying gameplay and several new concepts. The PlatinumGames team took some risks with this sequel that served the experience very well. The third game in the series is close to perfection and will satisfy action lovers and fans of the studio. In the end, Bayonetta 3 proves that there's still plenty of room for more mature games on Nintendo's console. I also recommend that you play it on the big screen given the visual quality and, preferably, with a Pro Controller for the best gameplay experience.

To conclude, I would say that Metroid Prime Remastered is in the top third of the best remastered games. It may not be as impressive a work as a remake like Dead Space, but it doesn't rank that way in either name or price. It gave me great pleasure to find this masterpiece 20 years later and it still holds up very well. It is one of the beautiful games on the Switch and the improvements make it even better. I highly recommend it whether it's your first trip to Tallon IV or not.

Capcom took a lot of risks in making several changes to their cult game, but they all improve the experience. Resident Evil 4 (2023) is another very well modernized masterpiece. Whether its the amazing new visuals provided by the RE Engine or the many practical adjustments to the gameplay, Capcom is definitely on top of their game with this franchise.

9.5 / 10.0 - Forza Motorsport
Oct 4, 2023

Forza Motorsport is the best racing game on the market, surpassing even Forza Horizon 5, whose style has always won me over. Immersion is at its peak from start to finish, and you fall in love with the driving of your vehicles and the feeling of progression. The game's visuals have been taken to the next level, and the developers have used the AI to great effect. I can't wait to see what Turn 10 has in store for us in the months and years to come.

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 built on the strenghts of the first games to enhance the experience of players in almost every aspect. The scenario is more polished thanks to great actors and epic moments. The gameplay maintains its fluidity while adding many moves to make combats feel even better. New York is twice as big, but it's never been as easy, fun and quick to travel. Insomniac delivered another banger that will make you feel like the most amazing of superheroes.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is another excellent Nintendo Switch title that shows the company is still able to come up with brilliant new ideas. I loved every single hours spent in this new 2D Mario world and I hope there's more content coming in the near futur. There's no reason to hesitate, this is one of the best games of the console.

9.5 / 10.0 - Alan Wake 2
Dec 11, 2023

Alan Wake 2 is a great success that proves that patience has paid off for Remedy Entertainment. The game is of the highest artistic, narrative and gameplay quality. If your nerves are strong enough, and you're a fan of horror and survival games, this is one of the best. However, I strongly recommend that you play the first game to understand all the subtleties. In short, for me this is a game that will make my TOP 3 this year, which is no mean feat in a year so rich in high-quality video games.

Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury offers much more than your regular Switch port with a brand new adventure that packs between 5 and 8 hours of great new original content. I loved my time spent in this new open world of Bowser's Fury and going through 3D World a second time sure was a blast. Hopefully, this new package gives the game the second life that it truly deserves.

With an undeniably charming visual, a captivating story and complex gameplay, Bravely Default II is a great JRPG. Despite a few slowdowns, BD2 should satisfy veterans of the genre with its great soundtrack and high level of difficulty. It might not be a game for newcomers, but Claytechworks managed to bring the franchise to the next level without forgetting the essence of what made it great.

Trails of Cold Steel IV marks the conclusion of a huge saga of four games that delivered a lot of emotions. The only way to evaluate the 4th title and final title of a series is to look at the collection as a whole and at the path that brought us to the ending. With that said, we can conclude that Nihon Falcom did an almost flawless job with a story that will stay in my mind for many years.

The interpretation done by Eidos Montreal of Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy came as a really nice surprise to me. I devoured every moment thanks to its endearing characters, the depth of the script and a good level of humour that put a constant smile on my face. Eidos proves once again that there is room for high budget linear games that are played solo. I had my fears like everyone else, but I came out very satisfied and can't wait to go back and redo some of my choices.

Pokémon Legends: Arceus is an excellent adventure that proves it can pay off to do things differently. The recipe has been reworked on several levels and all these changes enhance the player’s experience. In short, if the last titles bored you a little by their redundancy, this new title should definitely reignite your flame.

9 / 10.0 - Cult of the Lamb
Aug 17, 2022

Cult of the Lamb is a perfect blend of roguelike and farming simulator which stands out because of the many original cultist elements. Massive Monster did an amazing job to immerse the player into this very dark world and it's just so much fun to play the lamb god. The game offers a good 20 hours of gameplay that I simply flew by and at a very affordable cost.
