The Sexy Brutale is a moody experience of exploration, secrecy and melancholy, fueled by smooth jazz. Distinguished by its own mecanical design and great visual presentation, the game is a great surprise recommended for the puzzle loving entusiasts.

The Disney Afternoon Collection is an object lesson for how game compilations should be developed, providing rock-solid adaptation to a new platform, respecting the material's historic context, and exercising restraint. It's one hell of a collection with great visuals, rich extras and challenging time attack modes.

LEGO Worlds is a game full of wonderful but poorly implemented ideas. Its first hours are marvelous, but as soon as you get to the creative mode things get messy and the creation tools become a chore to use. It's a game that wants you to love it, the problem is the potential is so wasted that even some LEGO fans may get disappointed. Other than that, the experience overall is entertaining and for its very cheap price, the quality of the content is very good.

PaRappa the Rapper is a legend, but even legendary status doesn't prevents its latest remasterization from being a let down. The charm is still there in the music and its visuals, the problem comes with the archaic mechanics and some technical issues. If only Sony would have went beyond the graphic remasterization, maybe the game could have fulfilled our nostalgic expectations.

Mario Sports Superstars it's a mediocre game by itself and even more in Nintendo's standard. The real problem is not that the developers sacrificed depth in favor of greater variety, but that the execution lacked charisma in each and every sport. There's no emotion nor intensity, only a very generic and technical experience. If Camelot and Nintendo would have chosen to leave behind the seriousness, to embrace the chaos and spontaneity that worked so well in the past, maybe then Mario Sports Superstars could had become a great sports game.

Mass Effect: Andromeda is a game that forgot how to be a Mass Effect game. While it fails to deliver a compelling narrative and has little to offer, It’s the combat and planetary exploration the element that holds together this contrasting experience. The result is a game drifting away in the open and cold space.

Ghost Recon: Wildlands gives you all the tools needed to have a lot of fun with friends, despite some design flaws, minor bugs, an inconsistent narrative and a somewhat repetitive structure. As a solo experience, it is solid but too big to keep you interested, and with random people it can be too chaotic to enjoy. It all comes down to how are you going to play and who are you going to play it with.

Super Bomberman R is a cute and enjoyable puzzle-action game that pays homage to the origins of the franchise. It's mechanics are simple but fun, specially when you're playing with friends or even with strangers in online mode. Sadly the price tag is very high for what little the game offers, since the gameplay experience is more aligned with an arcade title than a full AAA production.

NieR: Automata is a great game that captures you from the very first moment. The well-rounded combat mechanics, the mystery in its story and an addictive customization system won't let you release the controller, despite some minor imperfections that don't affect the experience in any meaningful way.

Breath of the Wild is without a doubt one of the best and most complex game in Nintendo's history. With an open world full of wonders, its addictive ambience seduces you constantly to explore the depths of Hyrule while it defies the best of your skills with perfect mechanics in combat. By far is among the most enjoyable sandbox games.

A proof of concept more than a game itself.

For Honor has the best, most innovative and rewarding combat system we have seen in years. However, the whole experience is crippled by poorly designed game modes and progression schemes; a broken matchmaking system and online instability. It's best to avoid it for now and wait a few months until the developer can fix its problems.

The most accessible yet demanding real time strategy game for consoles, Halo Wars 2 lives up to expectations while celebrating 20 years of RTS tradition at the same time. Fans of the franchise will love it but veterans and newcomers to the RTS genre will be satisfied as well.

Sniper Elite's argument is irrelevant and forgettable, its characters are poorly developed and the general appearance of the game is deficient;however, an outstanding level design and well implemented mechanics create a favorable and enjoyable game experience

Horizon: Zero Dawn represents the birth a new and promising IP, thanks to a clever concept, solid combat mechanics and an outstanding presentation. Having said that, it can be repetitive at times and the lack of spontaneity stops Horizon: Zero Dawn from being a true classic.

Demand for Wooly World in any of its versions (Wii U or 3DS) to match the greatness of Yoshi's Island or Yoshi's World might seem asking too much, but the thing is that it has the potential to do so. What the game offers right now is enough to please Yoshi's fans at its most, even if the rest of the players won't get their expectations fulfilled. Still Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World is a fun, adorable and enjoyable game, and one of the best in the platform genre that you can find in the 3DS.

At a first glance Nioh could be perceived as a Dask Souls Clone because they share basic concepts like repetition, muscle memory, perseverance and a high tolerance to frustration. But after some time playing, the differences between the two are obvious and it becomes clear that Nioh has enough strength to stand alone with pride and could even be the responsible of sparking a new wave of games with similar mechanics. Nioh is an intelligent, inspired, polished and exciting game that will keep you elated for hours on end. It takes a proven formula and improves on it in every aspect. It is that good. We might be looking at a game of the year here and it will surely be a beloved game for a niche of people who like hard, demanding games.

Resident Evil 7: Biohazard is a terrifying survival horror experience. It offers the best spooky atmosphere in the franchise with many of the classic mechanics that build the original formula. Yet it has enough new elements to stand his ground amidst similar games. Without doubt, a must play horror experience.

Gravity Rush 2 is an excellent game with a well told story and interesting characters. There are a ton of things to do with 27 main missions and more than 40 side quests that are imaginative and well thought. This game surpasses its predecessor by far with a very large world made up of floating islands that is way bigger and more beautiful than you might think. Gameplay is satisfying but not without its flaws. There is no lock-on system so sometimes you end up disorientated mid fight and you’ll mainly use one attack for most of the battles. In spite of this flaws the game is engaging and a lot of fun. You can almost feel the care and attention the developers put into it.
