Knack 2 is an excellent game, which turned out to be one of the biggest surprises of this year, overcoming the first game on all aspects. Mark Cerny and Japan Studio deserve praise for sticking with this idea that still has a lot of potential to be explored. Although the story holds a few problems due to the poor development of its characters, it still offers a solid experience, with a good replay factor and is very entertaining. Besides that, it can also be played with a friend. It is definitely one of the best platform games of the year and one of the best exclusive games ever released on PlayStation 4.

Despite being a story prior to the original, Life is Strange: Before the Storm is best enjoyed if you consider it as a sequel. By far, the heart of the episode is the Chloe and Rachel encounter and we can finally learn more about this character that all Arcadia Bay loves. In the end, the story is interesting and prepares us for a second episode that will possibly bring strong feelings. The biggest problem of the episode are some graphics bugs and the control.

Tokyo Xanadu proves that Falcom can do no wrong, but at the same time, it proves that your strength is in celebrating what they've built through all these years and not in getting inspiration from other games.

The Pillars of the Earth is an adaptation of the best-selling homonymous novel by Ken Follet, set in a historical period of civil war in the 12th century England. With over a thousand pages of story to tell, the game is divided into three books, this being the first. It is practically an interactive novel, allowing the player to have a proactive involvement in the story by controlling three of their characters and making decisions about how they respond and act, thus shaping their personality. This will likely modify the story, but that is yet to be proven on the next books. Despite being packed with a lot of political and religious intrigues, the game has a very slow pace in the dialogues and actions of the characters, which hopefully may be improved in the future.

Rock of Ages 2 shows the human history like no other game. It is a beatiful game but unfortunately very short. It's possible to say that Rock of Ages 2 is a piece of art, much more than a game. It is a must-have for lovers of art and human history with a unique sense of humor.

Yakuza Kiwami is an excellent point of entry for newcomers and an awesome follow-up for those that played Yakuza 0, and it is also the best way to know how everything began or to relive how Kiryu's saga started. Kiwami is a tighter experience when compared to other Yakuza games, since it focuses in its crime story. Kiwami doesn't level up to Yakuza 0, however, it is an excellent game within the series and a must-play for any player.

The third episode delivers a good balance between action and character development, having a satisfactory ending. Although still below the expectations, the Telltale's series is in a good position to gain altitude and finally take off in its final chapters.

Neon Drive is a rhythm game extremely hard with a cyberpunk atmosphere. There are only 8 stages, but all varied and with unique challenges. The higher difficulty levels will make you throw the controller away, as well as the Endurance mode. It is not a game for everyone.

ChromaGun is a fun and challenging game, and these characteristics make it very enjoyable and should satisfy fans of puzzle games. The lack of more content and its weak performance on the PlayStation 4 disturb it, but it's still a good game.

Uncharted: The Lost Legacy is a great spin-off of the Uncharted franchise, featuring Chloe and Nadine, who steal the scene and it turns out to be a great change for the series.

It's the same formula, but it's a welcome game for the fans.
