    An exercise in compassion

    Life is Strange 2

    An exercise in compassion

    Most video games (and even the original Life Is Strange is no exception) put the player in a position of power. This one puts you in a position of powerlessness. You are an outcast whose choices are usually limited to "b... Read Full Review

    Worst slasher I have ever played

    Devil May Cry 5

    Worst slasher I have ever played

    Absurd plot and characters, the most overcomplicated and overburdened combat system I have ever seen (three different characters with about 9000 different weapons and moves each), the worst UI I have ever seen (you can't... Read Full Review

    Fun, if you don't expect too much

    Cyberpunk 2077 is a beautiful and stylish game with an interesting story, memorable characters and decent gameplay, but woefully short on additional content and suffering from bugs and balance issues. In terms of visuals... Read Full Review

    If only it had a bigger budget

    Mafia: Definitive Edition

    If only it had a bigger budget

    I never played the original Mafia game, but, from what I have seen on YouTube, the dialogue and voice acting were atrocious, which, thankfully, is not the case here. That is a big deal, because the game is story-driven. ... Read Full Review

    Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance

    Occasionally frustrating, but totally worth it

    You have to watch a 15-minute video on Youtube before you start, or risk plodding through the entire game without having learned the basics, because the game does such a great job of explaining them. The camera can be oc... Read Full Review

    DOOM Eternal (Code in a Box)

    Doom: Eternal is definitely an improvement upon its predecessor. My main beef with Doom (2016) was its uniformity: it had, basically, two types of environment, and there was little to distinguish the enemies from each ot... Read Full Review

    The Beast Inside

    A promising adventure/horror game resembling Scratches that turns into a terrible first-person shooter at around the 2 hour mark. You will be treated to a tedious chase sequence where you have to run through fog for what... Read Full Review

    Sorry, but I can't keep giving you a pass

    Hitman 2 (Gold Edition)

    Sorry, but I can't keep giving you a pass

    Hitman 2 is great as a sandbox, each of the levels a huge world full of detail, funny dialogue and situations where you can do all sorts of crazy stuff. The attention given to the story is to be commended, as well; it is... Read Full Review

    The Russian Far Cry/Fallout/Mad Max/Half-Life/Outlast is here. Too bad it's so short.

    The creators of ME were among the people that worked on the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series, and it shows. Once again, they bring a post-apocalyptic Russia (which, in some cases, is no different from regular Russia) to life with n... Read Full Review

    I tried to get into it, but I couldn't. It's just plain boring. Its tone is pretentious, but it fails to say anything of substance; the surroundings are uninspiring; the combat is simplistic, if flashy; the puzzles slow ... Read Full Review

    Great slasher game, awful God Of War game

    God Of War is, without a doubt, the best slasher game I have ever played in terms of mechanics. On the highest difficulty, every battle, even the very first one, is a challenge that will test you to the limit. The enemie... Read Full Review

    Quantum Break (Timeless Collector's Edition)

    Bad, but good

    I can say many negative things about this game. That it runs at a maximum resolution of 900p (sic) and still somehow fails to meet a steady 60 fps (and when it does, it still feels like 30), that the crazy visual effects... Read Full Review

    Until Dawn is more of an interactive movie than a game, but it is fun to play, nonetheless. The premise is beaten to death — a group of high school kids (who are in their mid-twenties, by the looks of them) gather ... Read Full Review

    Not a lot of good things to say about this one, unfortunately. That it is short is to be expected of a DLC, but the least you can do is not reuse any of the levels from the original game, and Arkane did. That's called ch... Read Full Review
