Fun Factor

In spite of a few issues, I enjoyed my time with Road 96 and its attempt to deal with a serious and delicate subject. I do think that the game's mechanics could've been more substantial to the story. Meaning the game did not live up to its full potential.

Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut not only introduces several improvements to an already great game, but the new Iki Island expansion provides the fans of the base game with an extra chunk of content.

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is absolutely amazing and due to it's frenetic gameplay and magical visuals, it claims the spot as the best game the series and PlayStation's 5 best exclusive yet.

Nier Replicant™ ver.1.22474487139... manages to fix the issues that plagued the original release, but the PC port introduces a few new ones that can thankfully be solved by mods. It is, however, a beautiful work with a truly great soundtrack that deserves its place as a great story-driven game.

Village is a more action-focused evolution of Resident Evil VII. The combat is dynamic, the exploration is rewarding and its visuals can be stunning. Even though the game overstays its welcome and it doesn't improve on every aspect of the series, I'd still call it one of the best Resident Evil games yet.

Exploration and combat make Returnal an excellent game that I can't recommend at this moment because of all the technical issues plaguing it.

In short, Demon's Souls is sensational for an originally PS3 game. Bluepoint Games has done an excellent job at adapting it to modern standards, and while some aspects still could've been improved, it is a must buy for fans of the Souls genre.

Not only is Astro's Playroom a great way to experience PlayStation 5's Dualsense to its fullest, it's a treat to every lifelong PlayStation fan and a very good platformer.

Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales is a fun and well made spin-off that does not stray too far from the original PS4 game, and I can't wait for what Insomniac Games is able to do in their next game.

I loved my time with Age of Calamity despite some of its issues. It's a memorable journey with a compelling story and fun, but flawed, gameplay. And a great game for fans of the Zelda series, while we wait for the Breath of the Wild sequel.

Minecraft Dungeons brings the crafting game's charm to a dungeon crawler type of game and can be pretty fun in short bursts. Unfortunately, the game's long and repetitive dungeons get boring quickly.

Even though it distances itself from its roots, The Origami Kings manages to be a fun and compelling adventure, with hilarious moments and amazing characters, even if the combat misses the mark.

Captain Tsubasa does not go out of its way to be more than a game for the fans of the manga. As a fan myself, I enjoyed reliving Oozora Tsubasa's middle school journey and the world cup, but I found the gameplay to be too superficial.

Tell Me Why is more down to earth than its Life is Strange predecessors, but that is in no way a flaw. Its charming characters, beautiful Alaskan setting and slow-burning storyline that rewards the attentive player make it a great slice-of-life adventure.

Although Nexomon: Extinction's story gives the game an unique charm, its remaining aspects do not elevate it inside the genre. I expected more from Nexomon and I was left disappointed, the game failed to offer a memorable journey thanks its unbalanced gameplay, tedious grind and lack of innovation.

Ghost of Tsushima does not stray away from your typical AAA Open World game, but it does some small changes and improvements that make it a lot more pleasant and fun than other games in the genre. The game's combat is satisfying (the stealth is not), and it's got one of the most beautiful worlds I've ever had the pleasure to play in.

The mechanics are great, Europe has become much more fun to play in. The HRE has become a bigger challenge to manage, and the mission overhauls in the region are a very welcome addition to make the gameplay there more enjoyable. Catholicism reworked has given the religion a much higher rating among its counterparts, and a completely viable option for long term use. The new mercenary system is a great change compared to what the system was before. This is an excellent DLC that was absolutely worth the long wait.

The Last of Us Part II is a technical marvel, one of the best looking games of this gen with a phenomenal soundtrack and sound design and a gameplay loop where every encounter is suffocating and extremely satisfying. Its narrative doesn't always stick the landing, however, it is still a memorable tale about conflict and bonds between flawed human beings on a world which lacks humanity.

Gears Tactics is a solid iteration of Gears' gameplay as a tactical game. And despite having a few frustrating moments, I enjoyed the ~30 hours I spent on it, the combat choices and strategy elements are both fun and satisfying, although the missions end up getting repetitive and monotonous with a few difficulty spikes. Nonetheless, I hope The Coalition and Splash Damage expand on this game with future DLC or a sequel.

Ori and the Will of the Wisps in an emotional journey through a beautifully crafted world. Gareth Coker's soundtrack is sensational and the combat and exploration are as fun as they are satisfying. Moon Studios' new game is a must have for every Metroidvania fan, and an easy recommendation to everyone who has access to Xbox Games Pass.
