Matchpoint - Tennis Championships is a simulation that goes through ups and downs. The graphics feel a bit dated and the ball physics doesn't feel fully convincing, but once you master the control system you'll get some decent satisfaction out of it. Too bad, also, for the lack of content both in terms of modes and prominent tennis players.

MX vs ATV Legends proves to be a worthy evolution of its predecessors, with an improved Career mode and the addition of a significantly large and enjoyable open world. Add to these the high degree of customization, the immediacy of the riding model, the new Trails mode and the excellent implementation of dynamic weather conditions. Too bad just for some technical flaws and the high cost of DLC.

Redout 2 sports a great variety with lots of tracks in gorgeous environments, vehicles and different play modes, while introducing a more challenging gameplay removing the pick-up boosts of the first game and betting everything on the boost system; it feels even overly challenging due to some balance and design choices. Adding the too basic multiplayer component to the picture , this feels like a game needing some meaty post-launch adjustments and additions.

F1 22 doesn't revolutionize the series, but it proves once again to be a worthy driving sim, capable of entertaining both the F1 enthusiasts and the more casual players. It manages to faithfully recreate the F1 world both in and out the circuits, with a wide offering of modes and options.

The Quarry is undoubtedly the best work yet by Supermassive Games, both in terms of gameplay and of plot ramifications and technical department. An enthralling experience that knows how to keep the fans of the genre happy, even if it suffers from a not so bold plot (especially on the horror side) and the temporary absence of an online multiplayer component. Yet, it's a title that every fan should consider for their collection.

Evil Dead: The Game shows remarkable potential and incredible fidelity to Sam Raimi's work, with engaging PvP and PvE dynamics especially when played with friends. There is no lack of flaws such as overly repetitive content, some technical problems and an underdeveloped single player mode, but Saber Interactive's title remains an enjoyable act of love for Sam Raimi's work that every fan should try.

Rogue Legacy 2 doesn't revolutionize the saga but expands and improves every part of it, adding great variety and many options for the players. This will keep it a constant presence in your hard drives for many months.

Loot River combines attractive looks and sounds to roguelike mechanics with Tetris contaminations, giving life to a definitely original gameplay loop. It suffers from some repetitiveness and a not too deep combat system, but it remains capable of fascinating the player thanks to its unique mechanics.

Slipstream reproduces at its best many of the visual and gameplay elements that made games like Out Run unforgettable, offering also a remarkable amount of game modes. There are still some perplexities about the inconstant difficulty, but given the excellent price it is undoubtedly a title recommended to all lovers of retro driving games.

Dawn of the Monsters successfully manages to reproduce the feeling of kaijus and big robot fights, but it doesn't add anything new to the genre's tropes, falling in a bit uninspired and repetitive gameplay.

Apart from being an excellent first-person adventure, Road 96 is an overwhelming experience and an emotional dive into the '90s, with their music and style. As you stand on the side of the road, fantasizing about a better future, you'll wish that journey never ends.

The new elements introduced in LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga allow it to renew itself by offering a gameplay capable of satisfying every player, even if it has to deal with the inexplicable absence of online co-op and with some less effective elements. However, these flaws quickly fade into the background, leaving room for the best LEGO video game so far.

Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin feels like a wasted opportunity, with an intriguing base idea but a lackluster plot, bad characterization and a disappointing technical production. It's partly saved by a satisfying - although not original - gameplay and a surprising ending.

Tiny Tina's Wonderlands doesn't disfigure among other members of the prestigious Borderlands saga, even if it doesn't bring significant novelties besides the reinterpretation in a fantasy key, which turns out to be a winning idea anyway. Hilarious and irreverent dialogues, a satisfying gunplay and an end-game that hardly gets boring are the elements that will keep you glued to the game.

Shredders is an ambitious indie game, characterized by some too many edges but with the great quality of offering a snowboarding game that conveys passion for this discipline. The extremely complex control system can lead to some frustration, but those who have the patience to overcome a few too many failures will be rewarded with satisfaction and a lot of fun.

Tunic doesn't disappoint. Maybe some combat system choices can be a bit perplexing, but they aren't able to ruin one of the most memorable, deep and mysterious indie experiences of the last years. Behind a cute look is in fact hidden a deep, varied and fascinating game, capable of revealing new aspects even many hours after the ending.

WWE 2K22 brings new life and dignity to a beloved franchise, letting us forget the previous episode's misstep. The new graphics engine, the almost fully recreated gameplay, the richness of the offer and the general atmosphere that is felt in the game, overshadow the small imperfections still needing work to be done. Visual Concepts deserves our applause as a studio finally worthy of bringing forth the future of WWE's franchise.

Elden Ring manages to draw the player into a fascinating world for many hours, with refined gameplay that fits perfectly with the freedom granted to the player. A sumptuous but imperfect work, which fails to completely overcome some of the historical flaws of Hidetaka Miyazaki's productions. Flaws that, however, can't diminish the scope of a masterpiece destined to leave an indelible mark on the videogame world and to set new standards for the souls-like and open-world genres.

KungFu Kickball would have all the makings of a great party game, but it lacks in depth and variety. Moreover, the overly simplistic single player component and the almost non-existent online community relegate it to the role of a game that can only be played among friends.

Cyberpunk 2077's ultimate console version reaffirms the splendid storytelling, exceptional city-building and varied gameplay of the original game, while also being more polished, enriched and finally featuring performance and visuals worthy of new consoles. There is no shortage of smears and residual issues, but it still stands as an excellent first-person RPG, set in a fascinating retro-sci-fi world full of things to do and compelling stories to live. Definitely a must-have.
