The Devil in Me closes the first season of Dark Pictures Anthology in a bittersweet way. If on the one hand we have a good setting and the construction of a promising theme at the start, the serious pacing problems and some inconsistencies during the narrative make the experience lose much of its charm.

8 / 10.0 - FIFA 23
Oct 6, 2022

FIFA 23 says goodbye to the name in its best form in recent years. It's not brilliant, but it is uncomplicatedly the best soccer game you will find this year in all aspects: gameplay, graphics, game modes, and above all fun.

7 / 10.0 - Battlefield 2042
Sep 23, 2022

Approximately one year after its release, Battlefield 2042 is no longer the BETA that was presented to us in the initial product, and is now starting to gain more solidity and competitiveness in the fps market, even if it is a few notches below its predecessors.

Shin-chan: My Summer with the Professor - The Neverending Week is a very casual and fun game, particularly if you are a fan of this universe and its characters. It has a few glitches and breaks in pace, but it maintains the acid humor that Shinnosuke and the rest of the characters have gotten us used to.

The Last of Us Part I doesn't need to conceive much, and yet it manages to intensify in an absurdly atmospheric way everything that was already brilliant, and thus deliver the definitive experience of the unparalleled narrative masterpiece to Joel and Ellie's journey.

River City Saga: Three Kingdoms has everything you would know from a 'Kunio' experience: a well-crafted story with the relaxed, comedic side of the Three Kingdoms period, plenty of fighting for everything that moves; and the usual extreme frustration of the saga, with simple mechanics that are already getting pretty archaic these days.

8 / 10.0 - Digimon Survive
Aug 18, 2022

Digimon Survive played with my slight prejudice and inexperience with the series and fooled me extraordinarily well. Its combat is simple but solid, but it's as a visual novel that manages to carry a story with dense, calculating overtones, turning the experience into an extremely competent project full of new routes of connections and choices to explore.

Bright Memory: Infinite is a tech demo full of potential, with amazing gameplay and visuals. At a highly acceptable price, this frenetic experience even without narrative substance, delivers a constant action that will leave you at least 1.5 hours clinging to the screen eliminating everything that moves.

Yurukill: The Calumniation Games is a full dose for fans of visual novels, and a perfect title for those who want to get started in this genre. The story is extremely captivating, full of mystery and twists and turns, and with a special shoot'em up twist along the way that makes the experience more immersive. It's a must-have title!

7 / 10.0 - Final Vendetta
Jun 27, 2022

Final Vendetta is the closest 90's classic arcade beat 'em up you'll find being released today. This is a challenging and sometimes frustrating title, ideal for the hardcore fans of the genre who want the ultimate challenge of the old school arcade experience.

6.5 / 10.0 - Cotton Fantasy
Jun 6, 2022

Cotton Fantasy remains a game that is fairly consistent in style and comfortable to its origins, perhaps even too much so. The experience is challenging and the introduction of new styles of gameplay bring a fresh look to the series, but it still lacks more, especially for a 30-year legacy.

8 / 10.0 - Trek to Yomi
May 25, 2022

Trek To Yomi is the most perfect 2.5D homage you'll find to Japanese mythology and culture, but above all with a special focus on the cinematic achievements of Akira Kurosawa, delivering wonderfully well, and stealing full credit for the simple and rather repetitive gameplay that stays with us for about five hours of gameplay.

6 / 10.0 - Chocobo GP
Apr 27, 2022

Chocobo GP is a fun but rather modest game. If half the ambition that was put into monetizing the title was put into building a fairer progression system and equally whimsical in its gameplay base and circuit construction, we could have one of the most fun kart games of recent years here. Unfortunately, we are left with the 'if'...

8.5 / 10.0 - Chernobylite
Apr 25, 2022

Chernobylite is an exceptional game, developed by a small budget studio; but full of guts and passion. If you are a fan of challenging survival and management games, you have just the right dose of fun to enjoy many hours here, in what is the most worthy video game representation of the huge Chernobyl accident.

All in all, Phantom Breaker: Omnia is an essential game for lovers of the style, and if a small amateur like me enjoyed it so much, I can imagine the pleasure that a veteran and lover of fighting games can feel when giving himself body and soul to this title.

Succinctly and clearly, the Nintendo Switch version of Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition is not worth your money, at least not yet! It is a painful experience, with serious performance issues that make you completely forget the few improvements implemented in this classic trilogy, which for its legacy, deserved much more respect than it was due.
