Dungeons of Eternity is an excellent dungeon crawler, possibly one of the best available for the Meta headset. With good aesthetics, solid combat, and credible physics, its only current limitation is content. The future looks promising for this foundationally strong VR RPG.

Kill It With Fire VR is simple and relies on a basic concept with bizarre methods to achieve its goal. Despite its comic potential, its short longevity and quickly exhausted potential make it a forgettable pastime in the current complex VR landscape.

Endless Dungeon is an excellent game combining action and strategy. A mix of tower defense and shooter elements with good RPG mechanics, it offers a dynamic and artistically inspired experience. While it suffers from some technical issues, hard work can likely fix them soon.

I've played many soulslikes, both good and bad, but Lords of the Fallen is needlessly frustrating and flawed. HexWorks focuses excessively on difficulty, undermining the positive aspects of its level design. Despite innovative Umbral mechanics, the game feels like an anachronism, failing to live up to the genre's refinements over the years.

EA Sports FC 24 isn't the revolution expected with the name change; it's more like FIFA 23 with a new name and menu graphics, and minimal updates across the board. The gameplay remains largely the same: realistic and satisfying offline, chaotic online. Ultimate Team hasn't changed, Club and Volta are sidelined, and only Career mode has made some progress. The main issue, as with many sports games today, is justifying the annual €80 entry fee.

Gazzlers is an on-rail shooter with roguelite elements that may not be revolutionary, but it's incredibly fun and effective. Although it lacks elements that elevate it above other genre representatives, Bolt Blaster Games and Banzai Studios have created a colorful and immediate title that instills the 'just one more' sentiment in players. While the overall variety and power-up management could be better, these minor flaws don't detract from its overall enjoyment. The Machine God awaits you!

Bud Spencer & Terence Hill – Slaps and Beans 2 is a side-scrolling beat 'em up that entertains fans of Carlo Pedersoli and Mario Girotti's legendary films. Unfortunately, Trinity Team focused only on fans of the movies, missing the opportunity to attract a broader audience of beat 'em up enthusiasts with a bit more effort.

Trepang2's tribute to F.E.A.R. is heartfelt but not fully realized. Despite good intentions and similarities, it lacks the AI brilliance that made Monolith Productions' title timeless. The protagonist's resemblance to Crysis isn't fully successful, with effective bullet time but nearly useless invisibility. However, once past initial uncertainties, Subject 106's adventure is a fast-paced, challenging, and fun shooter. While not on par with F.E.A.R., it's still enjoyable.

Darktide for Xbox is an excellent product available at a great price (or even free on Game Pass). Fatshark's significant improvements enhance some core aspects of the game. While the gameplay remains repetitive and has some technical issues, these are acceptable given the launch price. A good cooperative shooter balancing strategy and dynamism, it's particularly challenging at higher difficulties.

Moving Out 2 brings back the hilarious F.A.R.T. movers, ensuring hours of fun for players emptying houses. Although it doesn't offer many gameplay innovations over the previous installment, it's still a solid choice for playing with friends, whether locally or online.

If you've always been curious about the Fate saga but never dared to explore its complex universe, Fate/Samurai Remnant is the perfect entry point. It introduces a new and unconnected story with all the narrative elements of the Type-Moon universe, combined with immediate yet deep gameplay. With an intriguing narrative and plenty of activities, it dispels any fear of approaching Fate. Be prepared to spend time on its visual novel elements, which are only in English.

Assassin’s Creed Mirage is a typical Assassin’s Creed game, blending familiar storytelling with moments of entertaining gameplay and some tedious parts. It will please fans who wanted a return to the series' roots, especially with its €50 launch price. However, it also shows that the franchise might benefit more from looking toward the future.

Despite starting with an interesting and well-built base, Infinity Strash: DRAGON QUEST The Adventure of Dai fails to go beyond being a mere and unconvincing task, due to some questionable design choices. The abrupt interruption halfway through the original story (for future expansion) and the imbalance between action and passive consumption make it lacking in player engagement. This is disappointing as it shows potential when in action. It's another misstep for Square Enix, who should better evaluate minor productions before releasing them.

Trine 5: A Clockwork Conspiracy is a successful sequel that carries the series' legacy forward. Unfortunately, Frozenbyte hasn't addressed historical flaws, but in terms of puzzle/platforming, it's one of the best, whether in single-player or co-op.

After spending hours with it and writing this review, I still don't fully understand what Everhood: Eternity Edition is. However, I do know that it's a unique and mesmerizing experience by Chris Nordgren and Jordi Roca, capable of questioning its foundations and the player's role. Accompanying Rosso on his journey reveals a convincing and multifaceted gameplay, with a complex and hypnotic universe filled with bizarre characters.

Eternights impresses with its effort, especially considering it's developed by a small team. The game features voice acting in English, Japanese, and Korean, and it remains engaging until the end, despite some temporal inconsistencies. Should we overlook gameplay issues and simplicity because it's made by a single developer? Yes and no. While it's essential to note flaws if they hinder enjoyment, the game's development and its affordable price should also be considered. Focus on the enjoyable story. Eternights is available on PlayStation 5, utilizing the DualSense's unique vibrations, and on PlayStation 4.

Forty years have passed, but Super Bomberman R 2 doesn't honor this milestone well. Konami's latest effort for this historic brand is marred by unsatisfactory execution. A repetitive and flawed story mode is accompanied by a chaotic online component, hindered by glitches, lengthy load times, and a ranked mode rotation system. You might consider revisiting the 1983 original.

Payday 3 isn't a revolution, but an evolution, simplifying (but not reducing) a well-established concept. It's a lighter, more fluid tactical shooter, and a good starting point for future development. With an accessible price, especially on Game Pass, it's a good but imperfect experience.

Saying that The Crew Motorfest has finally found its identity by mimicking another series might seem absurd, but it's true. It feels like a Forza Horizon chapter in all but name. While not reaching Forza Horizon 5's excellence, it's a great alternative for PlayStation players seeking a similar racing arcade experience.
