Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice brings with it an eventful journey, not only marked by Senua's struggle, but by the question and unease it raises for the player regarding psychosis. This constant struggle, both in game and in real life has produced incredible results for Ninja Theory, including special thanks from players with the same condition. A beautiful game, leaving mouths watering for its successor.

9 / 10.0 - God of War
Jan 12, 2022

Disregarding my skepticism with Sony exclusives, God of War showed me an adventure full of heart and emotion, a journey without brakes in both action and drama, mirroring an unstable but believable relationship between father and son. Thankfully all fans of the master race, in quotes, will be able to jubilate together due to the quality of the port and an experience that is, at the very least, a must-see. Adding to the list of accomplishments is the fun gameplay and memorable exploration. I will admit, however, that the boss fights disappointed a bit because of their repetitiveness. Other than that? After twenty-five hours of adventure I may still not believe in the Norse gods, but I certainly believe in God of War. Let's have the sequel yesterday.

Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves brings the definitive version of Uncharted 4 and Lost Legacy, the last two, consequently more polished titles in the saga. This duo, for the value of the upgrade brings unbelievable value, not only because they are two games, but because Uncharted 4 has already cemented itself as one of the best action/adventure games ever. Both Drake and Frazer's journey are two must-haves for not only those with a love of treasure hunting, but also anyone who wants a good gaming session.

8.2 / 10.0 - Solar Ash
Feb 2, 2022

Solar Ash is a game that doesn't try to go any further than it can, focusing on simple, effective gameplay with an interesting story and a mysterious world that encourages you to explore. It may stumble in some situations, but when it gets it right, all evils are immediately forgotten.

Dying Light 2 offers everything fans wanted: a bigger world, more and better characters, new modes and locations for exploration, among a multitude of content. Although with some questionable design decisions, it presents an even more immersive story than its predecessor, with a slow start, but a climax worthy of the term.

9.4 / 10.0 - OlliOlli World
Feb 8, 2022

OlliOlli World shows itself as the magnum opus of a team that knows exactly what they are doing, with super solid gameplay and original visuals, all with a creativity and variety that make this one of the most fun arcade games in recent times. A nice surprise in a month full of great games.

6.9 / 10.0 - Edge of Eternity
Feb 10, 2022

Edge of Eternity wanted to be all the games that influenced it, and that prevented it from being its own game. With many ramifications and few conclusions we end up helpless in the beautiful and fairly populated Heryon. No doubt the future of Midgar will be interesting, and while its first adventure doesn't set the course, it already sets the stage for a series to follow.

Guerrilla brought us a workshop on how to make the ideal sequel, taking everything that needed improvement from the first game and adding new layers based on those same improvements. Aloy's journey continues to be memorable, setting the saga up for what seems to be the biggest and ultimate battle our favorite warrior has ever faced.

Criticized positively by other means as the most ambitious iteration of the franchise, Pokémon Legends: Arceus conveys the feeling of being a cake in the oven for quite some time. It is the adventure that all fans have dreamed of, a departure from all the "gum" already more than chewed by then, and the least tautological. Game Freak has risked every chip in hand, creating one of the most exciting video games on its menu, full of several points for and few against. Granted, the overall performance isn't the best, as well as moving the focus away from battles causes some general inconsistencies but Hisui, with everything associated with it, is so much fun and full of life. It may not be more than perfect, but it is definitely better than imagination.

With a unique driving experience and a simulation game ideal for the most demanding players, not to mention those who are new to the game, Gran Turismo 7 risks to be a strong candidate for game of the year already in March! A must-have game for motorsports lovers and the perfect excuse to get a next-gen console!

All in all, Phantom Breaker: Omnia is an essential game for lovers of the style, and if a small amateur like me enjoyed it so much, I can imagine the pleasure that a veteran and lover of fighting games can feel when giving himself body and soul to this title.

6 / 10.0 - ELEX II
Mar 21, 2022

Elex 2 brings us a game where its complexity is the player's ally to shape his path in this story, without needing to have played the prequel. However it feels somewhat empty and disappointing, with too much genericity, dragging excessively to culminate in an experience that doesn't add much to the player.

9.5 / 10.0 - Elden Ring
Mar 24, 2022

From Software continues to impress, with an open world debut that immediately becomes an example for future games. Finally, a game that truly lets you explore, without giving you everything on a plate, and manages to do so in a natural and rewarding way. Elden Ring is the team's ultimate fantasy game.

7 / 10.0 - Virtuoso
Apr 5, 2022

Virtuoso is virtual reality music creation software. With 6 instruments including drums, microphone, and an organ, and a handful of settings we can use to play with notes and tempos, it feels like Virtuoso is just the tip of the iceberg of its capabilities. Hopefully Really Interactive still has a long road map to deliver us more instruments and ways to express our creativity through music.

We already deserved a Kirby title that lives up to the legacy of Planet Robobot and Triple Deluxe, and Kirby and the Forgotten Land is a wonderful discovery by a team with inexhaustible creativity. It leaves me dreaming of a sequel.

One can clearly see the expertise and tremendous effort in what seems to be the culmination of this type of video game by TT Games. Skywalker Saga not only shows tremendous respect to LEGO fans, it does so to Star Wars fans as well. Although development has been tumultuous, there is no doubt that TT is launching its Magnum Opus here.

Tiny Tina's Wonderlands presents itself as a worthy adventure of its own, which while bringing some weight from Borderlands, makes up for these annoying habits with a set of changes that not only appeal to fans of the saga, but create a foundation for a completely different experience than what we are used to. It will be hard to spend an afternoon playing Wonderlands and not flash a single smile.

7.4 / 10.0 - Slipstream
Apr 19, 2022

Slipstream is without a doubt a more than worthy homage to arcade racing games. Not only an excellent tribute, but a beautiful game in itself, accompanied by a price that justifies the bet. Fans of the genre will not be disappointed, having here another game that will bring them countless sessions of fun, whether solo or with friends.

Ganryu 2 lives up to its predecessor, presenting itself with some tailor-made differences by Storybird Studio. A constant challenge to our patience and concentration, with a fair duration that more than justifies the price asked. Without a doubt a title to be considered for lovers of the genre and/or the saga.

8.5 / 10.0 - Chernobylite
Apr 25, 2022

Chernobylite is an exceptional game, developed by a small budget studio; but full of guts and passion. If you are a fan of challenging survival and management games, you have just the right dose of fun to enjoy many hours here, in what is the most worthy video game representation of the huge Chernobyl accident.
