SNK vs Capcom SVC Chaos is definitely a must-play title for fighting game fans, given its significance to the genre over the years and everything the re-release of the title represents. While it may fall short in its online mode, the 36 selectable characters offer plenty of content in its arcade mode, appealing to both newcomers to fighting games and veterans who have followed the two companies for decades, like myself.

Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn ends up being a reflection of the saturation of Soulslike games in the industry. With an underdeveloped story, uninteresting characters, and no gameplay elements that make it stand out from the rest, Flintlock ends up getting lost and becoming completely forgettable.

Nintendo World Championship: NES Edition has an interesting concept that may appeal to speedrun enthusiasts and more competitive players of the genre. However, the limited number of weekly online challenges and the small variety of offline challenges from certain games, such as the Japanese version of Super Mario Bros. 2, may frustrate some players who don’t have a competitive inclination toward speedruns.

Although there are some issues, such as a repetitive gameplay loop that can become tiresome towards the end, or smaller problems like certain environmental elements disappearing in front of you, Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess is an excellent start for what could become one of Capcom's major franchises in the future, seamlessly blending two genres that previously seemed unlikely to work well together.

I already considered Final Fantasy XIV a must-play title for franchise fans since Shadowbringers, due to its high-quality story and the incredibly rewarding fanservice. However, with the release of Dawntrail, this recommendation becomes even stronger, solidifying XIV's place in the conversation among the best Final Fantasy games of all time.

Despite featuring new graphics and beautiful facial expressions, Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD fails to provide a strong enough reason for players who have already experienced Dark Moon or still own a Nintendo 3DS to return for the new Switch version. However, for new players, the remaster is a must-have title for Nintendo Switch owners, especially for those who enjoyed Luigi’s Mansion 3 or haven't played Dark Moon on the 3DS.

I honestly had a lot of fun with Metal Slug Attack Reloaded, despite the numerous frustrations caused by the remnants of the original release. However, I can't say it's an easy recommendation for everyone, given the heavy reliance on grind and RNG for progression, which can be a major downside for some players.

Super Monkey Ball: Banana Rumble is a game that managed to entertain me a lot, offering a good dose of challenge and relaxing moments. The magic of Super Monkey Ball lies in how laid-back the game is, allowing players to enjoy it in a spaced-out and casual way. In an era where big AAA games often span dozens of hours, demanding a greater commitment from players, Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble offers a lighthearted approach, focused solely on fun.

Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance is a celebration of the entire Shin Megami Tensei franchise, making it a must-play title for long-time fans, players who have only experienced Persona, or even as an excellent entry point for those who have never touched the franchise or its spin-offs.

After the missteps in previous years and expansions, The Final Shape is exactly what Destiny 2 needed to regain the trust of its players, from casuals who just want to enjoy a good story and occasionally repeat a strike, and to hardcore players who will spend hours dissecting raids and grinding master strikes and lost sectors.

8 / 10.0 - Sand Land
Apr 29, 2024

With around 20 to 24 hours to complete the main story, and over 35 hours for 100%, recommending Sand Land becomes incredibly easy for long-time fans of Akira Toriyama's works, despite the misstep with Forest Land. Reviving Beelzebub's journey and learning more about this wonderful universe created by Master Toriyama was an immense pleasure, even with its flaws, which become more noticeable towards the end of the adventure.
