Telltale's Batman does a good job of reimagining the beginning of Batman's career, even though it has flaws in its technical execution. However, there are interesting changes to the character's lore, such as his first encounter with Catwoman, in addition to the fact that we have a Penguin who is Bruce Wayne's childhood friend. Bruce, by the way, is a great central character and much more interesting than Batman, in this case. The only thing missing was a little more inspiration in the controls and graphics engine to make it truly worthy of the hero, who is one of the icons of comics.

Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon have achieved something that seemed impossible: renewing the Pokémon series. We can't consider them better or worse than previous games, especially the excellent Gold, Silver, X, Y, Black and White, for example. They are simply different and truly innovative experiences, in a way that you've never seen the series before. A small detail here and there may be annoying, but nothing that takes away the shine of this latest work from The Pokémon Company.

As a good adaptation, Attack on Titan has excellent controls and makes the player feel like they are actually in command of the troops to deal with the titans. There is considerable extra content and the player will enjoy taking down titans throughout the missions. It is true that the graphics could be better, but it is nothing that will detract from the overall experience.

Watch Dogs 2 was what the series needed to get rid of the bitter taste of the first one. The game was remade from scratch and rethought as a “first adventure”, despite the number coming soon after. It has references to the original, but does everything differently and better, starting with the more charismatic protagonist. Good graphics, an interesting soundtrack and excellent voice acting complete the package. If you don’t mind repetitive missions, go ahead and start hacking.

It's true that Just Dance 2017 lacks any really relevant new features, but it remains true to what it is: a simple and fun dance game. It will please those who were already happy with what was released last year and it also has the "new setlist" factor to give that taste of new content.

World of Final Fantasy pays homage to the series well and uses classic characters intelligently. The “cute” look may put off those who prefer more serious and “down-to-earth” games, but since it is a true Final Fantasy, one should not demand too much in terms of realism or a setting that is more similar to our world. It is a fantasy and that is how it should be.

The new Hitman doesn't do anything bad or offend the classic series and its legacy. Those who were expecting a reboot of the character, like what happened in Devil May Cry, for example, can rest assured, because this one is completely classic and original. There are a few problems here and there, but the final version, with all the chapters, didn't disappoint in any way.

Although we haven't noticed a huge graphical improvement compared to the last game, NBA 2K17 manages to be eye-catching in a positive way and please fans of the sport. This year's additions were spot on, improvements are always welcome and the gameplay is completely enjoyable and fits very well with the PS4 or Xbox One controls and does its job well. NBA 2K17 deserves its current position as market leader and shouldn't be leaving it any time soon, since there is no rival of the same caliber currently available – even though some have tried. In the meantime, the public is grateful.

The King of Fighters XIV isn't perfect. Its visual presentation falls short of its competitors, and the story mode is far from exciting. However, in terms of content, gameplay, and accessibility, it delivers more than most recent fighting games. SNK has done its homework and delivered a complete game since launch, something that has become rare. If you're looking for a title with a large cast, a deep combat system, and decent support for both single-player and online play, KOF XIV is worth your attention.

Uncharted 4: A Thief's End is an impeccable game. Naughty Dog once again proves its talent for creating cinematic experiences that brilliantly blend action, exploration, and storytelling. Nathan Drake's story comes to an exciting and satisfying conclusion, and the game is visually stunning with refined gameplay. Although the title has some minor flaws, such as predictable battles and the voice acting at times, it is, without a doubt, one of the best games of this generation. It is a must-play for any action-adventure fan, and one of the most important titles on the PlayStation 4.

In the end, LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens is a game that does its job well: it's fun, accessible, and true to the Star Wars universe. If you're a fan of the franchise or simply enjoy LEGO games, you'll definitely enjoy it. It introduces some interesting new features, but still follows the formula that has made the LEGO franchise a success over the years. If you liked the movie, you'll feel right at home here, and if you're not that into the style of the game, the long levels and simplicity of the gameplay might not be your thing.

Overall, Overwatch is a game that offers a fun and strategic experience, with engaging characters and a unique visual style. While there is room for improvement in some aspects, such as gameplay and the amount of content, Blizzard has managed to deliver a game that is worth the investment. The community is active, and regular updates mean that the game will continue to evolve. If you're looking for an FPS that goes beyond just shooting, Overwatch is an excellent option.

Zestiria is far from being a bad game. For those who know how to enjoy it, you will find a very entertaining production with a lot to do throughout the story. The charismatic and engaging characters set the right tone for the saga, and the twists and turns are constant.

Guitar Hero Live is a successful attempt to revive the franchise with an original and innovative approach, mixing traditional gameplay with new mechanics and modes like Guitar Hero TV. The addition of the actual show and the interaction with the audience provide a unique experience. However, the change in controls can be difficult to get used to, and the extra charge model in Guitar Hero TV can be a hindrance. For fans of the series, the game offers a refreshing experience, but it may not be revolutionary enough for those who were expecting something even newer.

In short, Sébastien Loeb Rally Evo is a game packed with content, but it deserved a little more polish in its graphics and gameplay, falling behind its main rival, Codemasters' DiRT Rally. It's a good choice for rally fans and is certainly an excellent option in promotions, especially for those who can't satisfy their desire to be a world champion.

In short, Dark Souls III is the sequel that brings back everything that was good in all the games in the series, and despite its problems, it is still a game worth playing, and for fans, it is a full plate of references and challenges to be overcome.

Hitman GO: Definitive Edition is a smart, accessible, and visually appealing game that does its job well: offering a light-hearted puzzle experience themed around the Hitman franchise. It's not a deep or immersive adaptation of the series, but rather a creative reinterpretation. With an affordable price and complete content, it's worth it for those looking for something different and relaxing.

Hitman is a solid, fun game that is true to the essence of the franchise. The freedom that the player has to plan and execute assassinations is its greatest asset. However, the fragmented launch, technical issues and dependence on an online connection prevent the game from reaching its full potential right from the start. If you are a fan of the series or are curious to get to know the franchise, it is worth playing – as long as you are aware of the current limitations. For the more patient, it may be better to wait for the full version or a price drop.

Tom Clancy’s The Division is a solid game, with a well-executed cooperative approach, an immersive world, and captivating RPG mechanics. At the same time, it suffers from an excessive reliance on online play, missions that discourage solo play, and the weight of unfulfilled visual promises. It doesn’t revolutionize the genre, but it doesn’t disappoint either — it’s a game made to be played with friends, with a focus on teamwork and gradual growth. For those who enjoy this style of game, The Division offers hours of tactical and engaging fun. For those looking for a more intimate campaign or a shooter with a narrative focus, this might not be the best choice.

Even for those who have never seen an episode of Naruto, Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 is an extremely competent and captivating game. Its stunning visuals, solid combat system and quality voice acting make it one of the best — if not the best — games based on the Naruto universe. For fans, it's a must-have. For newcomers, it's an excellent entry point.
