Special Forces: Team X	Microprose (Zombie Studios)	2012
Brütal Legend	Double Fine Productions	2013	Un hack and slash mas brrrutal que los frosties, con un humor soberbio propio de Double Fine y con pequeños toques de estrategia y de juego de conducción. Brütalmente imprescindible, el menú principal es legendario. 8 de 10
Tomb Raider	Square Enix (Crystal Dynamics)	2013	Probablemente el mejor Tomb Raider jamás hecho, aunque abusa un poco de los QTM y se nota la ausencia de puzzles. Aún así, la mezcla de acción-plataformas está mejor realizada que nunca. 8 de 10***Notes on tags: [spoiler] [b]Giant humanoids[/b] - the Oni are not explained what they really are, whether they are actually Japanese demons ([url=/groups/info/ogres]ogres[/url] really) or just some of the samurai who suffer from gigantism. [b]Undead[/b] - the Stormguard. Although nothing really suggests this except for that you can kill them by destroying their belt buckles, which presumably animate their dead bodies. [/spoiler]
Starcraft II: Heart of the Swarm	Blizzard Entertainment	2013	Requires Wings of Liberty to function in US and EU versions at least, Chinese version is possibly standalone.
Dust: An Elysian Tail	Microsoft Studios (Humble Hearts)	2013	Un beat'em up genial con un escenario que te atrapa desde el primer minuto y unos personajes que respiran vida. Es como jugar un anime de fantasía, una auténtica joya de las que parece que el tiempo de juego siempre es poco. 9 de 10
The Swapper	Facepalm Games (author)	2013	Con una atmósfera que hace recordar al Waking Mars o al Metroid Fusion, consiste en solventar puzzles cortos mientras desentrañas la extraña historia de la estación espacial. Aunque el elemento señero del juego sea la multiplicación el personaje, lo que le hace destacar es elementos como la oscuridad o la ingravided y su uso como elementos del juego. Muy recomendable para partidas cortas, por su sistema de checkpoints cada poco tiempo. 7 de 10
Rise of the Triad	Apogee (Interceptor Entertainment)	2013	Apogee Software and Interceptor Entertainment proudly present the rebirth of the cult-classic first-person shooter, "Rise of the Triad".

Divinity: Dragon Commander	Larian Studios	2013	Supposedly inspired by old [company=Cinemaware]Cinemaware[/company] games. Some of the games mentioned (unknown actual value to the final game) were Rocket Ranger, Axis & Allies, King of Chicago, Defender of the Crown, StarCraft, and Command & Conquer. And there was stated inspiration from their own RPGs.***[media=youtube]_9lbrq3BLQU[/media]
PAYDAY 2	505 Games (OVERKILL Software)	2013	PAYDAY 2 is an action-packed, four-player co-op shooter that once again lets gamers don the masks of the original PAYDAY crew - Dallas, Hoxton, Wolf and Chains - as they descend on Washington DC for an epic crime spree. The new CRIMENET network offers a huge range of dynamic contracts, and players are free to choose anything from small-time convenience store hits or kidnappings, to big league cyber-crime or emptying out major bank vaults for that epic PAYDAY. While in DC, why not participate in the local community, and run a few political errands? Up to four friends co-operate on the hits, and as the crew progresses the jobs become bigger, better and more rewarding. Along with earning more money and becoming a legendary criminal comes a new character customization and crafting system that lets crews build and customize their own guns and gear. Key Features Rob Banks with Friends – Players must choose their crew carefully, because when the job goes down they will need the right mix of skills on their side. CRIMENET – The dynamic contract database lets gamers pick and choose from available jobs by connecting with local contacts such as Vlad the Ukrainian, shady politician "The Elephant", and South American drug trafficker Hector, all with their own agenda and best interests in mind. PAYDAY gun play and mechanics on a new level – firing weapons and zip tying civilians never felt so good. Dynamic Scenarios – No heist ever plays out the same way twice. Every single scenario has random geometry or even rare events. Choose Your Skills – As players progress they can invest in any of four special Skill Trees: the Mastermind, the Enforcer, the Ghost and the Technician. Each features a deep customization tree of associated skills and equipment to master, and they can be mixed and matched to create the ultimate heister. More Masks than Ever – PAYDAY 2 features a completely new mask system, giving players the ability to craft their own unique mask together with a pattern and a color combination. Weapons and Modifications – A brand new arsenal for the serious heister, covering everything from sniper and assault rifles to compact PDWs and SMGs. Once you've settled for a favorite, you can modify it with optics, suppressors, fore grips, reticles, barrels, frames, stocks, all of which will affect the performance of your weapon. There are also purely aesthetic enhancements - why not go for the drug lord look with polished walnut grips for your nine? Play It Your Way – Each job allows for multiple approaches, such as slow and stealthy ambushes, to running in guns blazing. Hit the target any way you want, and watch as the heist unfolds accordingly.***Un FPS táctico que parece un juego de SWAT/Rainbow Six a la inversa. Muy recomendable para jugar con amigos, aunque recuerda que los asuntos de dinero se magnifican cuanto mayor es la cantidad ;) 7 de 10

Batman: Arkham Origins	Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment (WB Games Montréal;Splash Damage)	2013	[100]* [12]Batman™: Arkham Origins is the next installment in the blockbuster Batman: Arkham videogame franchise. Developed by WB Games Montréal, the game features an expanded Gotham City and introduces an original prequel storyline set several years before the events of Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City, the first two critically acclaimed games of the franchise. Taking place before the rise of Gotham City’s most dangerous criminals, the game showcases a young and unrefined Batman as he faces a defining moment in his early career as a crime fighter that sets his path to becoming the Dark Knight.Sigue la estela del Arkham City, y el villano no podría ser mejor, sin embargo le falta un toque de libertad de acción frente al anterior que lo convierte en un juego ligeramente inferior. Si que es destacable el multijugador, que parece una mezcla entre el Gears of War y un Metal Gear Solid. 9 de 10*Splash Damage created the multiplayer mode.
Call of Duty: Ghosts	Activision (Infinity Ward)	2013	Outnumbered and outgunned, but not outmatched. Call of Duty®: Ghosts is an extraordinary step forward for one of the largest entertainment franchises of all-time. This new chapter in the Call of Duty® franchise features a new dynamic where players are on the side of a crippled nation fighting not for freedom, or liberty, but simply to survive.

Risen 3: Titan Lords	Deep Silver (Piranha Bytes)	2014	Piranha Bytes, the creators of Gothic and Risen, return to their origins with a new, classic RPG. Risen 3: Titan Lords pulls the player in to a hand-crafted role-playing world full of rugged charm where every decision changes the course of the story. Risen 3: Titan Lords is set for release in August 2014 for the Xbox 360 games and entertainment system from Microsoft and for the PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system as well as Windows PC. The key element of the cult Gothic series as well as Risen is the vivid world and the freedom to explore it. The world of Risen 3: Titan Lords will be diverse, authentic and full of life, providing the player with an authentic, classic RPG experience. "Like a carpenter with a hand-crafted piece of furniture, we put together the story, the characters and the landscape until it all fits and the player has the possibility to discover things all around the place. You can try out and find things that others might not. Exploration is the key to our game", says Bjoern Pankratz, Project Lead at Piranha Bytes. The world of Risen 3 is abandoned by all gods and suffers from the Titan Wars when a new threat rises from the soil. A young warrior is attacked from the shadows and deprived of his soul. He sets off to reclaim what is lost amidst the darkness that is spreading throughout the world. The banned Mages could be powerful allies on his quest. To get their help, he needs to find the Mage sanctuary on Taranis, also known as the Island of Thunder. Protected by the Guardians, the Mages search the mines of Taranis for crystals loaded with magic energy. Will the player join the Guardians to get in contact with the Mages? Or will he choose one of the other guilds in Risen 3 to reach his goals?***The retail versions are DRM free. Moreover, the First Edition contains a DRM free copy of Risen 1, the Limited Shadow Lord Edition DRM free copies of Risen 1 and 2.
Lichdom: Battlemage	Xaviant	2014
Dead Rising 3	Capcom (Capcom Vancouver)	2014
Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor	WB Games (Monolith Productions)	2014	Like a lovechild of Assassin's Creed and Batman Arkham series, its most remarkable feature is the lieutenant system and the "live" that brings to your actions and the map itself, making the game a pretty fun sandbox (even dying on purpouse can be useful) intertwinned with some exploration and a few interesting missions. 7 of 10***Fight through Mordor and uncover the truth of the spirit that compels you, discover the origins of the Rings of Power, build your legend and ultimately confront the evil of Sauron in this new chronicle of Middle-earth.
Alien: Isolation	SEGA (Creative Assembly)	2014
Civilization: Beyond Earth	2K Games (Firaxis Games)	2014	Un spin-off de la saga Civilization, similar a la últimas entregas (tablero hexagonal y ataques a distancia) pero con un especial énfasis en la exploración, algo que se nota en un entorno mucho más elaborado (misiones, reliquias, alienígenas...) y en la unidad del explorador. Sufre mucho de tener un ritmo de juego muy lento, incluso para un juego de estrategia global, con progresos y construcciones que tardan decenas de turnos. 7 de 10***Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth is a new science-fiction-themed entry into the award-winning Civilization series. Set in the future, global events have destabilized the world leading to a collapse of modern society, a new world order and an uncertain future for humanity. As the human race struggles to recover, the re-developed nations focus their resources on deep space travel to chart a new beginning for mankind. As part of an expedition sent to find a home beyond Earth, you will write the next chapter for humanity as you lead your people into a new frontier and create a new civilization in space. Explore and colonize an alien planet, research new technologies, amass mighty armies, build incredible Wonders and shape the face of your new world. As you embark on your journey you must make critical decisions. From your choice of sponsor and the make-up of your colony, to the ultimate path you choose for your civilization, every decision opens up new possibilities. [Steam Store]
Dragon Age: Inquisition	Electronic Arts (BioWare)	2014
Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare	Activision (Sledgehammer Games;Raven Software)	2014	In short: great graphics in a bland FPS format. Vanilla modern CoD (perks + red screen) with nothing new to offer, except for dashing/double jumping and some techie weapons and abilities (that drain a power bar from their use), and a "grenade launcher" that is only a visual quirk to the average classic grenade. Anyways, if you go for jumps and platforming try Titanfall (you can try it for free on Origin with Game Time, and its better in level design and vertical combat), and if you like futuristic gadgets and customization try Ghost Recon Phantoms (F2P crafted for real multiclass playing and more interesting and versatile special skills) At least displays many different multiplayer modes. Also includes two co-op modes: [b]Exo Defense:[/b] a co-op PvE mode, where the players fight waves of soldiers. [b]Exo Zombies:[/b] a "zombie mode", featuring a mixture between survival and area defense in the way that started Call of Duty: World at War. 4 of 10*Call of Duty®: Advanced Warfare, developed by Sledgehammer Games (co-developers of Call of Duty®: Modern Warfare® 3), harnesses the first three-year, all next-gen development cycle in franchise history. Call of Duty®: Advanced Warfare envisions a powerful future, where both technology and tactics have evolved to usher in a new era of combat for the franchise. Delivering a stunning performance, Academy Award® winning actor Kevin Spacey stars as Jonathan Irons - one of the most powerful men in the world - shaping this chilling vision of the future of war.Tagline/Slogan: Power Changes Everything.**Raven Software handled development of the multiplayer component.

Kholat	IMGN.PRO	2015	Based on the Dyatlov Pass incident in the Ural Mountains.
SOMA	Frictional Games	2015	This is a sci-fi horror game from the creators of Amnesia: The Dark Descent. It is an unsettling story about identity, consciousness, and what it means to be human. The radio is dead, food is running out, and the machines have started to think they are people. Underwater facility PATHOS-II has suffered an intolerable isolation and we’re going to have to make some tough decisions. What can be done? What makes sense? What is left to fight for? Enter the world of SOMA and face horrors buried deep beneath the ocean waves. Delve through locked terminals and secret documents to uncover the truth behind the chaos. Seek out the last remaining inhabitants and take part in the events that will ultimately shape the fate of the station. But be careful, danger lurks in every corner: corrupted humans, twisted creatures, insane robots, and even an inscrutable omnipresent A.I. You will need to figure out how to deal with each one of them. Just remember there’s no fighting back, either you outsmart your enemies or you get ready to run. In Dec/2017, a Safe Mode option was added for players not to get attacked by monsters as the most popular fan mod was a similar "Wuss Mode".* [100]* [12]*[spoiler=Show monster mechanics;Hide]Several of the monsters operate via odd sensory system where they account for Sound for noticing you in places where they don't have line of sight to, but their primary method of actually detecting is You detecting them. In effect, you can avoid them by going into a corner where they won't likely walk into, and turning to stare at the wall. It doesn't matter if you're in plain sight, because it's Your sight that matters. It's like they're remotely jacking in o your vision. You can even just happily walk past them as long as you don't look at them At All. This works only on early monsters, the later ones have their faculties properly attached.[/spoiler] [spoiler=Show spoiler tag info;Hide]Sound cues – required because you're not allowed to actually Look at the monsters much, but you have to judge their position and intentions based on the sounds they make.[/spoiler] Soma may refer to somatotropin, a growth hormone produced by human pituitary gland which promotes cell reproduction and regeneration.*[media=youtube]syhcF0Mx0j0[/media]

XCOM 2	2K Games (Firaxis Games)	2016	AI cheating * Knowledge of all player troops once concealment is gone, which lets them target AoEs and such without ever having vision on them. * Concealment patrol routes sometimes follow player position. * Accuracy stat is not affected by as many things as it is for players.***The game starts roughly 20 years after the beginning of the first game from scenario where the war was lost before the players even began on the first game, effectively taking immediate loss right at game start as the canon ending for the previous game, thus making anything that happened in the first game not canon.
Killing Floor 2	Tripwire Interactive	2016	Takes the formula of the first game and pumps it to a more gory and intense zombie limbfest. Pros: -Great enemy AI (for a zombie, don't expect advanced calculus) -Light vs. dark places and itchy placement of objects to hit with them in your escape. -Good and simple interface. -You can be the white englishcotish friend of Grandpa "Beetches" Freeman. Cons: -Its kind of repetitive, even for its variety of weapons. -Scarce vertical action situations. 6 of 10
Resident Evil 7: Biohazard	Capcom	2017	Set after the events of Resident Evil 6, though any connections with the previous game are unknown besides the general global BOW disaster status. The game's title is stylezed with VII as discolored part of EVIL.

Explore its intricate world design - full of hidden passages, dungeons and secrets - and uncover its deeply rooted lore.***Has significant changes to the engine and certain parts of the gameplay. Some features from the sequels were ported over. This however is not redesign of original Dark Souls, so many of the problems of the original are still present. The assumed goal however of this product is to move support to unified game across all current supported platforms and allow players who never played the original to experience it. There's been some severe outcry from PC Dark Souls fans for the remaster not doing "enough".
Borderlands 3	2K Games (IPerion)	2019	At the hard edge of the galaxy lies a group of planets ruthlessly exploited by militarised corporations. Brimming with loot and violence, this is your home – the Borderlands.
