Death Stranding: Director's Cut is a unique game, the product of a volcanic mind capable of creating a fascinating, visually stunning world with unique gameplay mechanics. The downside, however, is missions that become repetitive and tedious in the long run, with an obsession with extremely long and tedious dialogue. A work dominated by genius and unruliness, a true auteur game that we recommend everyone try at least once.

8 / 10.0 - Phasmophobia
Nov 6, 2024

Despite its many obvious technical limitations, Phasmophobia is highly recommended for those who love horror and have the opportunity to play it with a group of friends, thanks to still innovative gameplay and a total sense of immersion.

Alan Wake 2's second DLC succeeds in replicating the main game's pacing and style in a new setting by offering some interesting creative cues. Still, on the other hand, it fails to add anything of substance to the original experience and to provide longevity that lives up to expectations. A content that's more interesting for Control lovers than AW2 fans, but still worth playing since it's a key piece of Remedy Entertainment's narrative universe.

A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead manages to entertain despite not offering particularly memorable gameplay or storyline. Given its low price, however, it is a good choice for both thriller fans and those looking for an innovative experience thanks to the special feature of microphone-activated gameplay.

Diablo IV Vessel of Hatred is an important expansion that manages to hit the mark, successfully and naturally integrating itself into the base game. It does not venture into revolutionary innovations and therefore will not succeed in making Diablo IV palatable to those who have not appreciated it so far, however, thanks to the quantity and quality of the proposed content, it is certainly capable of renewing interest in the game.

DRAGON BALL: Sparking! ZERO hits straight at the heart of longtime fans while setting a new standard for Dragon Ball fighting games, offering us a fast-paced, fun, and visually spectacular experience that strikes the right balance between immediacy for newbies and a good degree of depth for those seeking a more competitive challenge. Highly recommended for fans of Goku and Co.

Graphically lagging behind, but supported by a masterful art direction, Studio Zero's work immediately imposes itself as a title destined to walk a prestigious path, whose treacherous terrain, stemming from its being too anchored to the past, could sink a gem that, with more courage and innovation, could have shone like the crown of a king.

8.5 / 10.0 - EA Sports FC 25
Oct 10, 2024

The new features introduced in this edition of EA Sports FC 25, first and foremost the Rush mode and FC IQ technology, breathe life into the title and forcefully push it in a new direction. Issues are not missing, especially in the AI and online challenges, but even so, the game is a must-have title for fans of the saga.

8 / 10.0 - The Park
Oct 8, 2024

The Plucky Squire presents a truly inspired concept and art direction, managing to be loved at first sight. As the game progresses there is a certain monotony in the gameplay, but both budding and seasoned players will not fail to appreciate the colorful design on the one hand, and the sophistication of certain quirks and situations on the other.

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.

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.
