The Games Machine's Reviews

Rules proves to be the classic central episode in which developers pull the hand brake of action to focus on details.

9.2 / 10.0 - Metro Exodus
Feb 13, 2019

Metro Exodus should be preservedas a species near to extinction: it is not always perfect, but overall we are facing the best story driven FPS in recent years, crafted with love, much more freedom but still impressive in its narrative, graphical and playable level of details.

7.3 / 10.0 - JUMP FORCE
Feb 13, 2019

Jump Force's gameplay is spectacular and amazing, but too many technical issues get in the way, ruining part of the fun.

Feb 5, 2019

Monster Energy Supercross: The Official Videogame 2 is pure spectacle, a rhythm game disguised as a racing videogame. The only flaw is a career really not that exciting with a poor sense of progression.

7.8 / 10.0 - God Eater 3
Feb 5, 2019

God Eater 3 isn't quite polished like Monster Hunter World, but it surely is the best alternative to Capcom's videogame.

8.1 / 10.0 - Astroneer
Feb 5, 2019

Astroneer is a survival space simulator that offers a rich and colourful experience based on some interesting game mechanics.

7 / 10.0 - Re-Legion
Feb 4, 2019

Re-Legion is based on some interesting ideas and has a nice cyberpunk setting. Sadly there's only one game mode (the single player campaign), and overall the game feels very easy due to a lackluster AI.

7.6 / 10.0 - Riot: Civil Unrest
Feb 3, 2019

Without considering its aim, RIOT may seem just a poor RTS. However, its ability to integrate gameplay's limits in a dialogue between them and the game's thesis made RIOT a really experimental and interesting game, unique in its own approach to the genre.

7.8 / 10.0 - Helheim
Feb 1, 2019

Helheim is a simple yet engaging video game, and it's pretty hard too.

7.5 / 10.0 - Genesis Alpha One
Jan 29, 2019

Genesis Alpha One is a nice mix of roguelite, base building and FPS elements. It's a bit rough on the edges, but the game can only improve thanks to future updates.

Jan 28, 2019

There's a lot of content here, but the many technical issues, the poor balancing between the twelve factions, and the many feature missing from its direct predecessor make Battlefleet Gothic: Armada 2 an underwhelming experience.

The Eternal Castle [REMASTERED] try to demonstrate the current maturity of the videogame medium simply using a few modern tools in a structure inspired by the adventures of the 80s, playing with the player mind starting from the title.

9.5 / 10.0 - Kingdom Hearts III
Jan 24, 2019

Kingdom Hearts 3 succeeds in the difficult task of being up to the expectations, without shaking up its foundations but improving on the strenghts of the previous chapters. Spectacular in the artistic direction, exhilarating in the fights and fulfilling on the narrative side, to be fully appreciated Kingdom Hearts 3 requires however that its public is aware of the intricate background of the saga. After waiting for so many years, recommending the last adventure of Sora, Donald and Goofy would only be a negligible formality.

Clementine's story deserves to be finished, and this third episode does justice to the legacy of Telltale Games.

Jan 23, 2019

while True: learn() is a nice puzzle game that manages to be both funny and educational.

9.6 / 10.0 - Resident Evil 2
Jan 22, 2019

Resident Evil 2 is one of the best remakes we've ever seen: it's a bit different from the classical survival horror released in 1998, while still remaining true to the original game.

4.5 / 10.0 - Vane
Jan 21, 2019

Beautiful visuals and suggestive atmospheres are not enough to save Vane, whose obscure and not always working mechanics make the player feel abandoned in a poorly conceived world.

Jan 18, 2019

In this chapter of Ace Combat, the gameplay is stripped down to a bare minimum and the air-to-ground combat is plain boring. The jaw-dropping graphics and production values will probably be enough to attract the fans of the franchise, but if arcade air fighting is not your niche, you'd better steer away.

7 / 10.0 - Ashen
Jan 17, 2019

Ashen is a souls-like game with a particular focus on the co-op multiplayer. Sadly this feature rarely works as intended, but despite its flaws, the game developed by A44 is still an enjoyable variation to the formula created by Miyazaki and From Software.

Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes is colorful, crazy and unpredictable, representing a perfect appetizer while we wait for an official third game of the series.
