This game is just so good I wish I made it, honestly.

I trust Respawn, they're a rare example of efficiency and creativity for the entire industry, and I think that allowing them to work on a famous ip has done good to the franchise itself.

Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order is one of the best adventure games out there, with a solid combat system (that still shows space for mechanical improvements tho), great platforming sections, sublime level design and a balanced mix of ludic and narrative components. All the characters are likable and well-developed, with great acting that enriches the many memorable moments, and the whole art direction fits the mood of the franchise rather perfectly while providing some new original material to appreciate. Cal Kestis and BB-1 are now some of my favourite characters in general, and I really hope Respawn will craft an even better sequel to continue their quest.

INSIDE is probably one of the most interesting 2D puzzle-platfromers that I've ever played.

Just like its predecessor, Limbo, it follows the same philosophy of design by subtraction, offering to the player a simple yet, at the same time, deep experience via few intuitive gameplay mechanics.

You'll play as a young nameless boy, running away from who knows who; ceaselessly trying to bypass many dangerous obstacles to reach who knows what kind of place.
The world around the protagonist is just cruel, dark, ruthless and generally unwelcoming. Sure it's not the kind of place where a kid should (or would) wander alone... Nowhere feels safe.

This sense of perennial insecurity is also given by the unique aesthetics, the animations and the excellent sound design.
This aspect, in particular, could easly be considered as the best part of the entire game. Capture quality, equalization and mixing are just perfect.

INSIDE is a well desinged and kinda disturbing whirl of emotions.
It just feels like a never ending nightmare, both abstract and plausible at the same time.
And that's why you should play it as soon as you can.

P.S.: Loved the Akira reference!

Had many problems completing this game, since it's too difficult to play while you're busy headbanging to the kick-ass soundtrack.


HELL/10

If you're on this store page maybe it's because you love open world,action and/or driving games or maybe it's because you love the franchise created by the director George Miller in 1979... or maybe both.
The thing is: Mad Max is a very good title, with a dark plot, an addictive, well-studied and challenging gameplay and a sublime aestethics. Beatifully optimized and with an honest longevity. Rich of interesting features and situations.

I won't say anything more: you should really play it, to witness its greatness.

Simply one of the best game of the 7th generation and one of the best stealth/action games as well. The gameplay offers several possiblities of approach for every single stage of every single mission and this offers a huge number of hours of fun due to his high replayability level. The plot is simple but effective and, technically speaking, this game is astonishing. The unique graphic style, with the choice of dieselpunk atmosphere and technology certainly make Dishonored's world a well built one and one of the best of his genre as well. Consider also the good voice acting (I played it both in English and Italian) and an enjoyable soundtrack, the beautiful DLCs and the low price (which decreases a lot more during sales) and there you have one of the best adventures and stealth experiences ever created.

The truth is that gamers deserve the possibility to play more often majestic titles like Dishonored.
