Wanted: Dead brings so much and at the same time, that as a player we are perplexed. That's way too many emotions for a game that doesn't make any effort to truly improve any of them. Despite everything, the evident humorous side takes us to the opposite of the most negative emotions that we could get from this experience, even reaching several moments of: "just go for another 10 minutes". I can't really recommend it, but honestly I can't tell you to put it away either. In my humble opinion, despite everything and the calamity of everything that the game brings, I will give it a positive note... just because it managed t9 make my comic persona won over my rational one!

Those who played the original version will really be able to feel some repetition to relive a game of this scale, but for the simple fact that it was a game that already marked a generation at the time. However, I believe that these players will still have their senses put to the test during game time. The graphic improvements that this new version brings are a delight, and even those who choose to play in performance mode will certainly not be disappointed. Anyone who has never played the game, whether they like the genre or not, shouldn't miss the growing suspense that Dead Space brings.

One Piece Odyssey manages to bring together the best of both worlds: a wonderful exploration experience through the most important anime's settings, as well as a very well-developed combat experience. The difficulty level is quite low, allowing anyone interested to finish the game without any difficulty. However, I can't recommend the game to anyone looking to get to know the world of One Piece, since the "flashback" moments are very confusing and in some cases completely distorted or poorly explained . For true fans of the series, if you can accept these aspects, you will get the most out of the experience, just like I did!

Persona 3 Portable is an excellent title that allows newer players, for a very affordable price, to gain access to one of the best RPGs on PlayStation 2…albeit in a “lite” version. Still, it would have made perfect sense to have been released a more complete version of this title or one witb added bonus components to this particular title (such as concept art, soundtrack, or producer commentary). However, some work by the publisher in revitalizing this particular title for the current market is notorious. If you liked Persona 5, you'll already know what to expect here: The bases where “everything” came from... in a more "Lite" way!

Anyone who plays Persona 4 will quickly notice that it is the basis for the creation of Persona 5. There is no escaping this reality. Fortunately, we are pleased to note that a game from 2008 still manages to present arguments to go head to head with another from 2016, or even the most recent releases from the Publisher. Despite all the similarities present, with this title in particular, the game presents a sufficiently interesting experience, demonstrating that there are titles, despite how old they are, they deserve to have an opportunity these days. Persona 4 Golden is one of them!

Soul Hackers 2 is a solid turn-based RPG, but it fails to introduce anything new or consolidate all elements of the introduced experience. Fortunately, it features great characterization and a solid plot that keeps us on our toes throughout the game. Fans of Shin Megami Tensei will certainly be able to enjoy it, but overall there are better alternatives.

Final Fantasy:Crisis Core Reunion is one of the best remasters I've ever played. With a completely overhauled look for today market, refined gameplay and a renowned soundtrack, it's easily one of the best RPGs of the year. Despite some details that could be worked better, this is a title that will truly delight fans and give due prominence to a great character in this world.

Need for Speed Unbound is a game quite interesting to drive, visually appealing and have countless cars to choose from (although we wont't ever have the money to buy them!). However, it becomes fatal and boring due to the repetition imposed, either by the racing, running from the police, or even the frustration of having to decide which tracks to do with all the nuances that entails. With the help of a good soundtrack, we can almost smell the Underground but unfortunately it's not quite there yet.

God of War: Ragnarök is nothing short of a divine experience, on every level. It somehow manages to improve on everything from the phenomenal 2018 entry. The story, gameplay, environmental design, technical consistency, performances – it's all absolutely flawless. This work of art is challenging, it's impactful, it's exciting, it's touching and it's beautiful. For all that and more, this is a title that deserves to join the pantheon of one of the best works in our industry. There are no perfect games, but damn if God of War: Ragnarök isn't incredibly close to that feat.

Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of DANA is a title to consider for several reasons. The fact that it incorporates the different mechanics in a balanced and non-excessive way makes it a very solid experience, the only sin being that this new version for PS5 does not add practically anything new compared to versions of previous generations. However, the humorous aspect present is really great and it gives a lot of pleasure, always with a smile on your face!

New Tales From The Borderlands, was an unexpected announcement. For those who loved the first title, like me, it was another game to end on my wishlist. It definitely presents itself with a completely different personality: funnier, more interaction between the characters, a completely new story and with a new cast (but with some familiar faces). However, the lack of "real" gameplay is quite notorious, the secondary characters have few moments of "fame" and their story is quite confusing. New Tales From The Borderlands is far from being a reasonable game, on the contrary, it is even a must-have game for anyone who loves this genre and especially anyone who is a fan of the original Borderlands series, as well as the adaptation made by Telltale Games.

Return to Monkey Island is above all a return to the origins of the series. They say that lightning never strikes the same place twice, but Ron Gilbert and Dave Grossman managed to create an experience that in every way evokes the feelings conveyed by the original titles. Let's hope that Guybrush's adventures (these new adventures) don't stop there! We suspect that there are still many stories behind this infamous secret!

We've played a lot of war games, some were really good, others were just horrible and my expectations for this game were a little low, also because lately the series has promised a lot and delivered little. However, we were surprised quite positively. The story is simply incredible and maybe one of the best if not the best we've ever played in a Call of Duty game (yes, we dare say it's better than the original Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2). It has a bit of everything, drama, plot twists, anxious moments and plenty of enthusiasm. The multiplayer is well polished (except the respawn), with everything to improve even more over the coming months. In general, Activision has once again shown that it manages to reboot without tarnishing the image of a game that was once recognized by many as the best of the year in question.

Bayonetta 3 is one of those games where you can't help but feel good while playing. Taking the work of the previous game and improving on it in practically every aspect, this title offers us a much more diverse, fun gameplay and a more consistent and appealing story with excellent characters and touching twists. Not even the fact that it is one step away from disaster from a technical point of view prevents Bayonetta 3 from being one of the easiest games to recommend to everyone this year.

If Gotham Knights is an original game? No, but that does not detract from being a solid experience. Giving prominence and opportunity to secondary heroes to shine and being able to even switch between them, brings a healthy variety of distinct games in the genre. One of its strong points is definitely the interesting plot, relegating to the second line the leading role that Batman had in this world. There are some points that could be fixed in a simple way and maybe with updates they will, but overall it's a good superhero game with the usual atmosphere of the Batman universe. With the Multiplayer mode still being polished, we may have a few more hours of entertainment here to spend with friends or enthusiasts of this genre.

Directly succeeding CHAOS;HEAD NOAH is no easy task, but CHAOS;CHILD manages to be a worthy experience. Its story is exciting and addictive from start to finish, the characters and supernatural elements are better enjoyed and the consequences of CHAOS;HEAD NOAH are approached in an extremely satisfying way for those who played it without alienating those who start their journey in this universe in the second title. It's still hard to swallow the impossibility of finishing the final and most conclusive route, and small problems with the presentation and flaws in the script pop up with some frequency.

Asterigos: Curse of the Stars is a good action/adventure game that focuses on a diversified combat and narrative to bring a pleasant experience to the player. There are a few opportunities of improvement, such as the simplistic textures (which also tend to become repetitive) or the lack of guidance features in the map or cenarios (which tend to difficultate our navigation to the objective). Still, in a global context, these are aspects that don't spoil the experience much and we recommended our readers to give the irreverent Hilda a chance!

With a nontraditional protagonist, quite intriguing mysteries, shenanigans and a meticulously considered cadence of events, CHAOS;HEAD NOAH delivers an intriguing story that's impossible to put down before the credits. While the content of this work remains excellent almost 15 years after the original release, this release is hampered by a series of problems inherent to the work of conversion and localization, such as the impossibility of completing the true ending of the game and the censorship of moments in the story, important for understanding its mysteries.

Overwatch 2 came to fix some problems of the first title, improved the graphics, the gameplay and brought some new characters. The bugs that it presents are correctable and, although annoying, they do not harm the fun that the game offers to the players. Was it really necessary to release a new game instead of just doing an update? Not really. However the content is there and there is really a (minimally) significant improvement compared to the first title.

FIFA 23 is one of those entries in this series that, in fact, improves several aspects and meets some criticisms or requests from fans. The career mode is more customizable than ever and introduces some important additions, and the expansion of women's football modes is a great step forward for the game. What's more, the fact that we now have a really fun set-piece system and that the new animations make every game moment more realistic and exciting, deserve all the praise. I just can't say that this title enters the top of the best simulators for the insistence of errors and unresolved problems, and for the fact that its most popular mode continues to be incredibly unbalanced and uncontrolled. But if you are fans of the king's sport, you have one of the most solid offerings of recent years here, which is presented as a great goal at the end of the curtain.
