Latest: Tales of Eternia Remastered

UagnaOct 14, 2026Score 80Pre-release Review

“Tales of Eternia Remastered successfully brings Bandai Namco's classic JRPG into the modern era, offering newcomers an ideal entry point to a 2000s gem. Driven by a charming narrative across the twin worlds of Inferia and Celestia, the adventure shines thanks to a dynamic 2D real-time combat system that has aged remarkably well. Thanks to a clean visual overhaul at 60 fps and crucial QOL additions (such as destination markers, adjustable encounter rates, and speed options) the frustrating friction of classic retrogaming is effectively smoothed out, delivering a deeply entertaining and polished classic.”

“It’s a great workout, a ton of fun whether you’re playing solo or with a group, and an easy way to get everyone off the couch. At the end of the day, it’s pretty hard not to have a good time with Just Dance: Decade of Hits, provided you’re willing to let loose, embrace the silliness, and dance like nobody’s watching.”

“Boltgun 2 is rancid, violent, boomer shooter goodness. The tight gunplay and beautiful retro art style take me back to simpler times. Boltgun 2 sticks firmly within the wider Warhammer 40k universe and does so magnificently. Yes, my glasses are rose-tinted, but that doesn’t change the fact that Boltgun 2 absolutely delivers a phenomenal boomin’ shootin’ experience.”

Latest: Odd Town

Maximum UtmostOct 14, 2026Score 50Pre-release Review

“As I said in the opening, an interesting open world is significantly valuable to me, and the one in Odd Town is formidable as far as environments go. However, it’s let down by everything else. Well, maybe not everything. The basic quest design, while repetitive, maintained my interested, and some of the side jobs are enjoyable. However, without an even halfway decent narrative or an interesting cast to make the world feel really alive, the whole thing is limp. Odd Town is too normal.”

Manual dos GamesOct 14, 2026Score 78Pre-release Review

“Toy Story: Retro Roundup! is a collection designed for those who want to revisit an important era of Pixar games without losing sight of what these titles originally were. The excellent presentation, various display modes, and features such as Rewind make revisiting these games much more comfortable on PS5, while the historical bonus content highlights the care taken with game preservation. Not all the games have aged equally well, and the lack of Portuguese-language support in the original titles may discourage younger players. Still, for fans of Toy Story and classic video games, this is a thoughtfully curated trip down memory lane.”

“This is a sequel well worth playing if you’re even remotely into boomer shooters. The subtle new features introduced—two characters, a branching campaign, and more—suit it perfectly and reinforce the already solid gameplay foundation that captivated thousands of players upon its release in 2013. Aside from needing a slight improvement in enemy AI, this is a highly entertaining title that will delight anyone who enjoys fast-paced first-person action.”

“From the high-level plot to gameplay that embraces both newcomers and veterans, to an exceptional technical department on PC, Ace Combat 8 represents a huge step forward. For the first time in the series, war isn't told only as a succession of military missions; it also makes room for the psychological consequences of the conflict, the weight of collective expectations, and the construction of heroes. All in all, Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve is without the slightest doubt the best entry in the series.”

“Star Wars: Galactic Racer is a wonderful gift for players who have grown bored with the 'realism' of Gran Turismo 7 and the search for any remotely interesting activities in Forza Horizon 6. Fuse Games has offered a chance to go back to the second half of the 2000s, when arcade racers were at their peak popularity and offered unusual gameplay solutions. Few are capable of that nowadays, so this chance is not to be missed.”

Nintendo LifeOct 14, 2026Score 40

“If you're someone who adores Clive Barker's horror franchise, Hellraiser: Revival might be worth a look for its faithful visuals and intriguing story. As a gameplay experience, however, it falls at several hurdles, with awkward camera controls, bang-average combat mechanics, and a plethora of bugs throughout.A few hefty patches could iron out the wrinkles and make Revival an adaptation worth experiencing. For now, I can't help but wonder if a new movie would have been a wiser use of resources.”

“Toy Story: Retro Roundup! offers a decent selection of classic Toy Story games across multiple platforms, enhanced with useful modern features and interesting documentary content. However, the incomplete lineup, limited archival material and awkward menu structure are disappointing for a collection from Digital Eclipse, especially given the studio's previous standards.”
