NBA 2K27 remains the same old, magnificent paradox. On the court, the defense is fierce, ProPLAY delivers exceptional performance, and the simulation has finally evolved. Beyond this meticulous refinement of the gameplay, however, the rest of the modes float in a state of semi-consciousness: good ideas are hampered by odd gameplay choices that limit their potential. When you set foot in the City, start Career mode, or navigate the menus, every screen seems to have a single mission: to remind you that the wallet is a game mechanic.

A fun and brutal action game with a great Wolverine and satisfying combat, but too linear and uneven to leave a truly lasting impression.

Hot Wheels Infinite Rush boldly transitions the beloved toy franchise into an open-world setting, boasting pristine technical performance, incredibly detailed car models, and robust creative tools like the Track Builder. The driving model is chaotic and engaging, perfectly capturing the essence of the toys. Unfortunately, this ambition is heavily weighed down by a repetitive, grind-heavy campaign structure, unrewarding race payouts, and the glaring omission of a fast-travel system. It's a gorgeous and fun sandbox that ultimately struggles to maintain its momentum over the long haul.

Captain Tsubasa 2: World Fighters fully embraces the series' shōnen nature, turning football into a spectacular sequence of duels, combos, and special moves. However, technical inconsistencies, weak AI, low difficulty, limited modes, and a stripped-back online offering make it a missed opportunity that only die-hard fans of Takahashi's work are likely to fully enjoy.

A fantastic cooperative action-adventure game that follows in the footsteps of Hazelight's genre-defining titles, yet carves out its own distinct identity thanks to its artistic direction inspired by Japanese animation and the wonderful sense of freedom it offers in controlling the two characters.

A new and intriguing action RPG that doesn's stray far away from The Witcher III's template, but delivers an engaging narrative experience full of memorable characters in a fascinating setting.

Onimusha: Way of the Sword marks a fascinating yet overly conservative return for Capcom's iconic franchise, starring the legendary Miyamoto Musashi. While boasting stunning cinematic direction, top-tier voice acting, and rock-solid technical performance on PS5, the game is held back by a passive AI, an overly permissive difficulty curve, and a combat system that pulls its punches. It's a solid, beautiful foundation for a series revival, though it ultimately lacks the necessary bite to truly master its craft.

The first "Star Wars X-COM" is also one of the best Star Wars games in recent years. Highly suggested to those who look for a fair challenge.

A visually stunning and emotionally intense action-adventure, held back by shallow combat, linear exploration and repetitive stealth.

Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls is another masterpiece from Arc System Works. The Japanese developers, who specialize in fighting games, have created a title brimming with love for the Marvel universe, featuring meticulous attention to detail in the design of each hero and an incredibly layered combat system that adapts to any type of player-from beginners to experts, as well as those who prefer to fight with a single character or manage an entire team.

A top-notch Soulslike—fun, satisfying, and full of good ideas—held back by a few shortcomings and, for the moment, various technical and balancing issues.

A honorable attempt at survival horror. The Sinking City 2 offers an imperfect - albeit satisfying - voyage into the horrors of a sunken city infested by eldritch horrors.

Beast of Reincarnation impresses with its atmosphere and combat system, but a few shortcomings keep it from standing among the best action RPGs.

The Relic: First Guardian is a work of violent contrasts, a crossroads where an almost moving authorial passion collides head-on with undeniable production and technical limitations.

With College Football 27, EA Orlando has delivered the best college football ever seen on console and PC; the gameplay works well and the atmosphere feels so authentic that it makes you feel like you're walking into a stadium you'll probably never set foot in.

A smart remake that modernizes a classic without losing its identity. Despite a few inherited flaws, Halo: Campaign Evolved remains one of the most enjoyable and engaging FPS games in recent years.

Splatoon Raiders is an excellent spin-off that centers the experience around a fun gameplay loop and a high level of challenge, all enhanced by excellent performance.

The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu starts with an intriguing Lovecraftian premise and a solid monster design, but it quickly collapses under the weight of severe technical flaws and frustrating design choices. Between a clunky combat system plagued by bugs, an unnecessarily restrictive inventory, and severe balancing issues that heavily penalize solo players, the game entirely squanders its potential. Instead of an engaging descent into cosmic madness, the experience becomes a tedious and agonizing test of patience.

Thirteen years later, Black Flag still proves what was already clear back in 2013: it's a far better pirate adventure than it is a traditional Assassin's Creed, and that's arguably its greatest strength. Resynced improves almost every aspect of the original, adds a fair amount of new content, and makes exploring the Caribbean more immersive than ever. Technical issues and a handful of questionable design decisions keep it from reaching true greatness, but it's still an solid remake and one of Ubisoft's strongest releases in recent years, delivering dozens of engaging hours on the high seas.

An unnecessarily frustrating action RPG with a story that lacks bite, despite the excellent source material.
