I had been told the story was terrible when that's actually the least of its problems. It's riddled with bugs, poor performance, and clunky controls that—together with that damn creature chasing you—make it extremely frustrating, especially in the last two chapters, and all that for a absolute garbage ending.

A massive disappointment because I was expecting something else and instead found a pain-in-the-ass platformer with stealth sections I can't stand. That said, artistically it's a spectacle, and the story hooks you.

I'm pretty bad at these types of games, but despite the suffering I've had at times, I can appreciate how good it is. The gameplay, once you adapt to the level and get into the flow, is some of the most fun I've played this year, and the bosses are mostly incredible. The only downside I can give it is how overwhelming it gets, especially near the end, because each chapter introduces a new mechanic and by the end it just becomes too much. It blows my mind that this game was made at home. Orgull català!!

At first, it's real eye candy with that spectacular Japanese setting, but you quickly realize it's the exact same old thing—and on top of that, unlocking the last event is a massive pain in the ass. P.S.: Another game that doesn't come complete on the disc on Xbox, and on PS5 it doesn't even have a physical edition.

Despite all the criticism I had heard about the campaign, I didn't think it was that bad, it's decent. The problem is when you reach the end and you get hit with a cliffhanger that they're never going to resolve. It's also worth mentioning the horrible resolution on Xbox One.

One of the surprises of the year. It already looked amazing visually, and it completes the package by being a very good game. Too bad that in the end it turns out way too long, and that hurts it more than it helps because it gets a bit tedious, also due to the lack of enemy variety.

What a shame ****. It could have been the definitive Bleach game that fans were waiting for because it explains a large part of the story quite thoroughly, to the point that it even gets tedious because of how long it is. Too bad about the inexplicably low resolution, how cheap it feels in many aspects, the music that doesn't fit Bleach at all, or the combat that turned out boring to me.

If instead of Star Fox this game were called 'The Fox and His Friends,' people would take to the streets with torches because of its price for how short it is, and I didn't think it was anything special either. Oh well.

The art style, music, and the final part of the story are great, but the game becomes extremely repetitive as you move through the same areas across different eras; you can tell it’s artificially padded. The final stretch to unlock the endings and the post-game content feels like a real drag, despite how good the story is. PS: It's a shame about the key-card format on Switch 2, because this game deserves to be played in handheld mode, and that's why I picked it up on PS5 to play with the Portal (while it's still possible). Because of this, it's a -0.5 on the final review score

It's Origins but improved, which makes it a very good video game despite only having the name and four references to Assassin's Creed. The main problem, and what lowers my score, is the DLC. The first one is well-written but follows a storyline that contradicts decisions I made in the base game regarding my character, and the second one is a real drag, to the point that I only finished it halfway through.

One of the year's biggest surprises, unexpectedly so, because of its quirky and original nature at times, and its great sense of absurd humor, just the way I like it. It's best to know nothing more beforehand and experience the surprise when you play it.

What seemed like a promising spaceship game falls apart because they've gone overboard with certain difficulty spikes, like with the bosses, and because many times you don't know what to do due to poor signage. A real shame.

What seemed like a fun game from the Pokémon team ends up derailing because it fails at the most basic aspect of a rhythm game: precision. This problem worsens towards the end due to the increased difficulty. It's also possible that I've suddenly become unskilled or that the 3D effect is tricking my brain.

The Metro game I hadn't played yet because back then I only had a PS3, and I only finished the PC version that was given away even with Chocapic. It's been a while since I played the others, but this one has definitely been the hardest and the most terrifying. There were times when I really struggled.

A good game with very original gameplay, which is appreciated in the current situation. However, I found the story very predictable and typical for this style of game. PS: - 0'5 for key-card format on Switch 2.

A fairly entertaining and short indie game with the perfect length to avoid getting tedious. Sometimes you just crave this kind of game.

At first, the game makes you smile with the anime-style graphics and the funny minigames and characters. The problem is that this doesn't last long because of its simplicity and lack of depth, while the game itself lasts 15 hours, ultimately becoming an absolute drag.

It's true that many years have passed and these types of games haven't aged well, but I found it very simplistic and "simple" in every aspect. I expected much more, but I understand that for its time it would have been a good game for kids to get started in the genre.

It's quite acceptable within its genre, but I would have liked a better and longer story mode. Also, it's a shame it doesn't reach 60 FPS on PS4 Pro/PS5, considering Mario Kart 8 does on Switch.

One of the strangest games to come out lately, which I appreciate even though the final result isn't great. Repetitive combat, the same enemies throughout the game, and far too long for the mechanics it offers. It also has chase sequences that are a real pain. The story ends up being an incredibly bizarre and outlandish thing.

Acceptable VN despite its poor performance, its shabby 3D, and the strange treatment of the Austrian painter, which ends in a rather absurd and ridiculous way with many things left unexplained. The game blatantly and consistently uses generative AI for art and images that are incredibly obvious, it's intolerable. This is a red line that should not be crossed.

Against all odds, it has turned out to be one of the best spin-offs in the series and one of the best examples of its genre. It's a huge game that has overwhelmed me at times, and I'll continue to play it from time to time to catch all the Pokémon, build my neighborhood, or whatever. It's perfect for playing while listening to a podcast or something like that. PS: -0'5 for the key-card format and -0'5 for an exaggerated price of €80 for a game of this genre.

Having played the other Shin-chan game first, this one understandably feels underwhelming. Everything is very simplified, and it's clear it served as a prototype for the later, much better game.

After playing the remake of the first Trails, the overall decline in the series' recent games is even more noticeable. It's worse in absolutely every way.

The Switch port is awful. The resolution drops so low that sometimes you can't even see what you're looking at, and it's riddled with visual glitches. It's one of the worst things I've seen on this console, and it's inexcusable that they had the nerve to sell it in this state, and that it's still just as bad today.

Well, I really liked it, it's one of the best Far Cry games ever made, with a very original setting that fits the franchise very well.

A good classic JRPG that, like all Dragon Quest games, isn't really my thing, but I enjoyed this one. It's almost too long for me, I can't even imagine how tedious the original must be. I found the spanish translation quite amusing with the accents, but it does get tiresome at times. P.S. - Reduced score for using key-card format on Switch 2

I haven't played many Kirby games, but this one is by far the weirdest. It's one of those games that makes great use of the Wii U's features, which means the controls aren't always perfectly precise, and while there are some really cool levels, there are also several that make you want to shoot yourself.

Similar to the first one, with some extra additions to the puzzles that complement it.

Saying anything about this game could be considered a spoiler, given how short it is.

It looks and runs very well on Switch 2. From this point on, the game's structure became very repetitive and boring due to the bad habits it carries over from the main series.

It was a huge mistake to play the Vita version instead of the remaster. The game makes terrible use of the Vita's features, forcing some interactions, like the camera and lighting, which are awful, or the card mechanics, which left my screen covered in fingerprints. On top of that, the game runs terribly, riddled with slowdowns and bugs, and the audio and sound effects are strange. Add to that a story and mechanics that are just so-so, you're left with a major disaster.

It's a much better and more complete game than the first game, but I was looking for an experience more like the first one, more focused on combat and less on exploration or puzzles, which I found tedious, but this is just a personal preference.

As a narrative game, it's wonderful: story, characters... but what truly makes it special is how well it integrates the gameplay and how fun it is; other games of this style often fall short in this area. One of the best of the year.

Quite disappointing to end the story. The settings are the same as the base game, the relationship between the protagonists barely progresses considering the ending of the base game, and the story is typical of a shonen anime with the power of friendship, which, of course, after playing Expedition 33, just feels rather underwhelming.

It's pretty... and that's it. (I'm writing this to reach the minimum word count because the game doesn't offer any more) [6/10]

I don't understand the fond memories people have of the original game because it has a lot of design problems that made me lose all desire to continue. For example, the healing system is terrible at times, and the fact that the game doesn't pause to select a weapon and you have to select it with the joystick you use to move the character is terrible.

I understand it's or fans, but for someone like me who knows nothing about RoboCop, I found it to be a very shoddy, clunky game with quite a few bugs and a terrible final hour in terms of design and checkpoints. [5/10]

At first, it really won me over, but as the game progressed, it declined. The same goes for the soundtrack, which is light years ahead of the previous two.

This game has confirmed for me that I don't like roguelikes, doing the same thing over and over is incredibly boring.

The idea is good, but it disappoints in almost every aspect. The combat is bad, the story is weak, and going from one place to another becomes tedious... Plus, the final boss is very underwhelming. Honestly, I'm very disappointed. I expected much more from this game.

I'm not the biggest Ninja Gaiden fan, but it's great to play a new Platinum game because their touch is clearly evident. I hope they can turn things around from here because the studio looked like it was going down the drain, judging by the direction they were heading.

Incredibly fun to play, one of the best VR experiences you can find. The only thing you could ask for is that they keep adding content because the 2-3 hours it lasts with what's currently available can feel short, although increasing the difficulty will increase replayability.

I don't know why it took me so long to get into it and play it, unlike 999, and it felt really long. It wasn't until I reached the final part that I really got hooked on the story. Clearly, it was just me. I appreciate the quality of this game, and anyone who enjoys puzzle and strategy games will love it.

It's incredibly strange. The systems (gambits and licenses) overly complicate the game if you don't understand them well. The combat didn't convince me; I prefer turn-based or action-based, but not a hybrid. The story is interesting at first, but then it declines significantly, and by the end, you just don't care anymore. The characters are very inconsistent, especially the protagonists, who are the worst I can remember in a video game. Quite disappointed after coming from XVI.

Good mini golf game for VR but it has very few courses included with the base game.

It's the game that all of us who enjoyed Fallout or Skyrim back in the day were hoping for from Bethesda, and I had a blast exploring the world and doing side quests. That said, the game has its problems, and we have to accept that. It's the same game from 10-15 years ago, but in space; there's no innovation, the main quest is terrible, and it has a lot of bugs. The most annoying one is that it frequently freezes when saving.

In keeping with the rest of the series, this installment is far superior to its predecessor, for obvious reasons: it's where the storyline from the previous game unfolds and concludes. It's a real shame so many people miss out on this saga due to its numerous sub-series and spin-offs, its English-only availability, and the company's appalling policy regarding Western releases, which only hinders access.

The new cel-shaded style suits it perfectly, so the game's low quality isn't too noticeable, at least visually, because when you actually play it's the same old thing: short but repetitive hack and slash wrapped in a budget so low I could have paid for it myself, but hey, anyone who plays these games knows what to expect.

It's a good game for introducing children to video games because of its childlike tone and because they don't notice the flaws as much. From then on, for everyone else, it's downhill fast. Simple gameplay that always holds your hand, very poor animations, a simple story with some ridiculous moments... In short, I wasn't expecting much from the game knowing how everyone involved has been handling the series, and indeed, the game has less budget than a SUDA51 game.
