As a medieval epic, although it can be inserted in the category of ghost hunters, where there is room for the Souls saga and vampire games, the most salient trait that many will identify when playing is how these influences also pour into an adventure that is also a beautiful love story, a romance in the sense that it seems to command the fate of the characters. It is clear that the developers wanted to make a different game here, to attribute a broader purpose to Antea and Red's relationship, far from retaining the gaze on their occupations and in giving more depth to the narrative, surprising the player and leading him to experience more emotions.

Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth has done a lot to reinforce the phenomenal feeling we're experiencing through some of the most exciting weeks in video game history, outside of the electric holiday months. Between Persona 3 Reload and now this majestic effort from Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio, Japanese productions show a brilliant ingenuity in balancing their essence, expanding their scales and refining them to attract more audiences. It's one of the best Japanese games I've ever played and arguably the best effort from this studio.

Despite rare graceful and fun moments, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is the worst kind of experience you can interact with: you won't feel particularly disgusted for taking the time to it, but you'll also feel like you don't lose anything if you don't play it. It's a game that arouses indifference and that's the worst thing that can be said about an interactive experience, the inability to excite and leave memories.

Persona 3 Reload takes a cult classic, from an era when the series didn't enjoy such global popularity, updates its visuals, applies all the improvements and refinements of Persona 5 Royal and then some, to make it a game that will taste great to all those who delight their taste buds with experiences of the genre. It may prove to be simpler and less ingenious than P4 and P5, but it's a stylish, captivating and fun turn-based JRPG.

Tekken 8 is like riding a bike, you might feel like you're looking at a game that changes little from the previous one, it can almost be described as an update, but its quality is phenomenal. The new fighters are a lot of fun to use, the graphic quality is stunning, the story mode entertains and Character Quest perfectly fulfills the role of a traditional Arcade mode. With a new focus on 3D space to bring the community together, Tekken 8 is positioned for an energetic and electrifying long ride with plenty of fun on the horizon.

By betting on complete remakes for both games, Nintendo ensures that Another Code: Recollection comes fully optimized and free of many of the problems that existed in the original versions. You may feel that the difficulty has been greatly reduced in this effort to remove much of the friction that existed in the original versions, much of it related to the specific alternative control methods of each of the original consoles, but the result is a much more entertaining game that much better fulfills its purpose as a hybrid experience between visual novel and puzzle.

By combining metroidvania design with the essence of Prince of Persia, The Lost Crown becomes a majestic game, inserted in an already well-known genre, but with its own ideas and electrifying. At some point, the gameplay became so much fun that I found myself thinking that the game just got everything it did right. Ubisoft is to be congratulated because it has achieved a game of great caliber and capable of grabbing you to the point of making you forget the passage of time.

This was a journey full of ups and downs while exploring Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. At first, the experience proved to be discouraging with a disconcerting entrance, but along the way it proved to be fun, having won me over with the visual exuberance of the scenarios, the game mechanics and the freedom to move around the map. However, the disappointment ended up being felt in the final part, with a poorly constructed ending, especially due to the poor quality of the cinematic scenes, something that should be at a higher level for such a reputable franchise.

With a pleasant soundtrack and well-constructed cinematic sequences, combined with meticulous art and a great narrative thread capable of holding the player through the constant time travel, Astlibra Revision is a great and challenging experience as an action role play game. It is true that it is the result of a solo production that has received the treatment of a team in this edition of Revision and that accommodates many elements and a management of the equipment and experience in old school modes. But he also knows well that games of this caliber and composition continue to reach the market, beyond the names and brands that usually triumph in these productions.

Either way, playing with a microphone will definitely complete the fantasy and bring out the star in you, in a way that a smartphone will never be able to mirror. Still, Let's Sing 2024 lives up to its name and is that kind of game ideal for parties or gatherings, where our inhibitions disappear and the music takes control of our body.

Modern Warfare 3 isn't a bad game per se, there's just the very concrete idea that it's not a game built from scratch, but built on top of MW2 and shuffled over again. These are mere visual notes and changes to some mechanics that give it a marginally different image, it's not for me a new and complete game, it's more of an extra component of last year's work. It was enough to have been put out here as additional content where the highlight would be the Zombies mode and the tiny campaign of just over 3 hours. Those who own MW2 don't have much appeal to buy it here, unless they are unconditional fans of the Zombies.

Persona 5 Tactica is a super accessible SRPG without the depth you'd expect from a game of this genre. It's clearly thought of as an SRPG title for Persona 5 fans who probably haven't even played a turn-based strategy game. It might be interesting for curious Persona fans, but most would probably invest their time better playing Mario + Rabbids, Fire Emblem, Final Fantasy Tactics, Mutant Year Zero, Triangle Strategy, Tactics Ogre, Disgaea or any other name that does greater justice to the genre.

In short, a collection that is not the most sublime in treatment, provides a great treatment of some perhaps unknown classics of the nostalgic Irem and relaunches curiosity for the games included in the next volume.

Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name is thus a production along the lines of previous games in the series, which has above all in the return of Kazuma Kiryu a point of interest for fans. The question that arises at the moment is whether it is a game whose development is necessary and whether it adds something relevant. It seems that the relevance of the story of this member of the Yakuza is told and now there are the "spin-offs" and endorsements, the filling of spaces between the branches and evolutions of the series. This can be developed to exhaustion, as long as fans don't mind and as long as the studio continues to make games in record time, like this one. It is a production that falls short of other central games in the Yakuza/Like a Dragon series, which fills a space and resumes the narrative of a nostalgic protagonist.

In the end it's a very balanced and successful proposal, a meeting of forces between Square and Nintendo that worked well. Perhaps the greatest merit of this remake is to fulfill the mission that the original lacked, to leave the Japanese exclusivity and reach the whole world, with a presentation that reveals care and at the same time fidelity to the primitive design.

NARUTO X BORUTO Ultimate Ninja STORM CONNECTIONS is a love letter to all fans of this universe and who after so many years have begun to miss a game in the series. However, it's a difficult title to position and maybe it's even better to look for the Trilogy or Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 to get a better and bigger Naruto experience. The new characters are the only real curiosity in an all-too-familiar package.

Air Twister is a short game, designed to capture the essence of the golden age of arcades, in which Yu Suzuki reminisces about his time at Sega. If you're nostalgic for a game like this and you're still dreaming of the return of Panzer Dragoon, you might like Air Twister and constantly replay the same levels in search of a better score. Despite the fun it can bring over a couple of hours, it's easy to feel that it's a very humble project on its scale and that Suzuki could do a lot more on a larger project.

In conclusion, RoboCop: Rogue City is essentially a game for fans: if you're not into the "lore", I don't think the gameplay is enough to win you over when there are many other games with higher quality on the market.

Inspired by Pixar/Disney films, The Last Guardian or even Ico productions, Song of Nunu: A League of Legends Story is a very satisfying game, endowed with a pleasant campaign, a journey made in measures between a human and a Yeti. It doesn't reach the magnitude and depth in gameplay of the productions it is inspired by, but Tequila Works has here a work worthy of being played and experienced by those who want to enjoy an adventure that is also a sum of puzzles, combats and platform passages.

WarioWare: Move It! It's eccentric, dashing and truly crazy, an entirely different side of the Japanese company that is so easily, and wrongly, accused of a one-dimensional approach to its projects. The fast-paced microgames and motion controls took me back to previous generations, and if I was laughing while playing, those watching couldn't resist having fun with my figures. Solo, it might be a hard title to justify, but with friends and family, it's as energetic as it is eccentric.
