7.5 / 10.0 - NHL 25
Oct 6, 2024

NHL 25 introduces much-needed changes and improvements to the series, most notably ICE-Q, a revamped Franchise mode and generally smoother play on the field. The result is definitely the best title in the series this generation, except for a revisable passing system.

Epic Mickey: Rebrushed is a solid, well-packaged remake that delivers an exciting, entertaining (not just for fans of the Disney universe) and content-rich adventure. More attention to the technical aspect, the introduction of more modern mechanics and the presence of extended voice acting would have allowed it to reach higher heights, but as it is, it remains a highly recommended adventure.

Test Drive Solar Crown turns out to be a huge wasted opportunity for the time being, due to the many problems it is plagued with and the lack of features that have characterized the TDU experience in the past. Still, KT Racing got the drivability and game world right, so the hope is that with good post-launch support, the rest will gradually improve.

9 / 10.0 - NBA 2K25
Sep 11, 2024

With NBA 2K25 Visual Concepts has managed to merge the old and the new, improving on historical features and introducing new features that make the game even more addictive, complete, and accessible to all. The excellent Career mode, the most realistic gameplay ever, the top-notch technical department and the very high level of simulation make it a game to be purchased without hesitation, by veterans and newbies alike.

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is a well-packaged and spectacular third-person action game, with an excellent balance between melee confrontations and shootouts. The Campaign gameplay feels a bit bland with few memorable moments, but is redeemed by the excellent wealth of content in terms of online PvP and PvE modes. Highly recommended for fans of Warhammer 40K, an IP that here is exploited to great effect.

9 / 10.0 - Madden NFL 25
Aug 31, 2024

Madden NFL 25 continues the path of growth and evolution that began with Edition 24, presenting itself as the best Madden ever. Thanks to Boom Tech physics simulation the action on the field is the best you've ever seen in an American football game, but enriched playbooks, new animations, lighting system and even improved UI also contribute.

8.5 / 10.0 - Star Wars Outlaws
Aug 30, 2024

Star Wars Outlaws is the experience every Star Wars fan should have, a love letter to the saga, excelling in offering a rich and varied adventure, woven perfectly within a larger story away from the great conflicts between Sith and Jedi, Empire and Rebellion. It isn't a perfect work, with bugs and glitches that compromise even the AI of enemies, but never before has this Galaxy come to life in such a rich guise.

Age of Mythology: Retold is an absolutely successful project with an highly affordable price tag, capable of keeping an RTS enthusiast glued to the controller for days on end, but that can also win over those who are not experts in the genre.

7.5 / 10.0 - Dustborn
Aug 14, 2024

Dustborn is a narrative adventure that starts very slowly but eventually captivates you with an intriguing plot and characters that you will grow increasingly attached to. Despite some slower parts, it keeps itself fresh and interesting by mixing different types of gameplay and a wide variety of settings. Even if it doesn't have what it takes to sit next to the top titles in the genre, if you love this kind of adventure it will keep you entertained for many hours.

Kena: Bridge of Spirits is a top-quality adventure, capable of providing many hours of fun for a wide audience. A game that makes the essentiality of the control system, the beauty of the puzzles and the increasingly articulated exploration its strong points, all enhanced by an extraordinary graphic realization and a simple storyline but, at the same time, capable of touching on important themes.

8.8 / 10.0 - F1 Manager 2024
Aug 5, 2024

Frontier Developments has incrementally improved an already good and original product, with more realistic graphics, high accuracy in circuit reproduction, new features and most importantly tangible improvements in the overall balance of the gaming experience. Undoubtedly a title not to be missed if you are an all-around F1 fan.

Dungeons of Hinterberg is an excellently packaged product on all accounts, with simple but engaging and well-structured gameplay, and excellent attention to detail. It is indeed a fine game: with limited ambitions, but at the same time with a respectable content density and play potential that should not be underestimated.

Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn offers us a solid and satisfying experience, aimed primarily at anyone who wants to approach the souls genre for the first time. The pleasant combat system, rewarding exploration, and a longevity of between 20 and 30 hours confirm the prowess of the A44 team; it's not a perfect game, but it exudes heart and passion, something not always a given.

Still Wakes the Deep is a good narrative adventure that immerses us in the horror of a realistically reproduced oil rig, but it fails to create high levels of tension in the player. Thanks to the good story, the interesting cast of characters and the excellent original voice acting, it remains an excellent first-person adventure that fans of the genre should not miss.

8 / 10.0 - F1 24
Jun 6, 2024

F1 24 is an excellent update to the Codemasters series: the new Career mode, which allows us to play with real drivers, is excellent, while the driving model has been substantially overhauled with very satisfying results. Only the AI represents a small Achilles heel, which we hope will be corrected as soon as possible.

Senua's Saga: Hellblade II is a true masterpiece: a deep and highly immersive narrative experience that manages to make us feel all the protagonist's torment within an impressively realistic world. Ninja Theory reveals itself to be one of the most valuable studios in the Xbox stable here, reaching levels of absolute excellence in graphics, audio, narration, and acting. A must-play.

7.5 / 10.0 - MotoGP 24
May 2, 2024

MotoGP 24 arrives on the starting grid in a much better position than in the past: it is now more polished, with far fewer issues, and offers us many new features that improve its performance, Rider Market and Steward Panel on top. A certain scarcity of content and its cross-gen nature, however, limit its acceleration right on the final straight, giving us a more than decent game, recommended to fans of this genre, which would only need a little extra effort to reach higher peaks.

Tales of Kenzera: ZAU is a good action-platformer with a great emotional impact, but it smacks of a wasted opportunity due to a too light approach to metroidvania mechanics and some problems with the controls. It however remains an enjoyable experience for fans of the genre.

7.5 / 10.0 - Sand Land
Apr 29, 2024

Sand Land manages to keep us glued to it from start to finish, with top graphics and consistently engaging gameplay, even if hardened gamers will frown at the excessively low difficulty. Anyway, if you are a fan of Toriyama's work, it is definitely worth considering.
