Resident Evil 4 Separate Ways: a perfect piece of the “puzzle”?

Pubblicato il da Filippo "Fatum" Barbuscia
Note: This article has been translated from Italian by ChatGPT and may contain errors. If there's a narrative style I like, it's one where we're shown a story from different perspectives. A bit like the concept behind Resident Evil 6, but also Resident Evil 4 Separate Ways. Just like in the original, this DLC puts us in the shoes of Ada Wong, showing us her adventure parallel to Leon's. Since I really enjoyed this version of Ada, spending 9.99 euros to be in her company seemed like a fair pr...

Resident Evil 4: A Good Remake, an Approachable Platinum

Pubblicato il da Filippo "Fatum" Barbuscia
Note: This article has been translated from Italian by ChatGPT and may contain errors. "Resident Evil 4" stands among the games that have deeply captivated me throughout my gaming journey. Not too long ago, I revisited it, only to find that the emotions it once stirred were not quite the same. Over time, the weight of years has started to become noticeable on this iconic title. The question arises: Has this remake managed to rejuvenate it adequately? The beginning of the game The Era o...

Dead Space Remake on Impossible difficulty: tension at its peak!

Pubblicato il da Filippo "Fatum" Barbuscia
Note: This article has been translated from Italian by ChatGPT and may contain errors. Ever since I decided to challenge myself with the Impossible mode of Dead Space Remake, a thought has been lingering in my mind: I'm not young enough for these things anymore. I mean, apart from the fact that I could have a heart attack at any moment, I'm too old for this nonsense. Yet, in the end, I managed to accomplish the feat of completing the game at this insanely difficult level. So, here's an overv...

Dead Space: an exceptional remake

Pubblicato il da Filippo "Fatum" Barbuscia
Note: This article has been translated from Italian by ChatGPT and may contain errors. It was the summer of 2009, precisely in July, when I decided to purchase a game of a genre that didn't particularly appeal to me and of which I had very little experience. It was a sci-fi horror, its name was Dead Space. Since then, horror became one of my favorite genres, along with the Dead Space series. Therefore, the closure of Visceral Games and the absence of a fourth installment are still a sore poi...

Final Fantasy XVI is my first FF, will it also be the last?

Pubblicato il da Filippo "Fatum" Barbuscia
Note: This article has been translated from Italian by ChatGPT and may contain errors. Intrigued by some comments I read on the web, I made up my mind: I purchased a PS5 and Final Fantasy XVI. After The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, I really needed a linear game strongly focused on the storyline. Furthermore, this is the first installment of the series that I've played. Fire and Flames Video and Gameplay Final Fantasy XVI is somewhat what I expected: lots of lengthy cutscen...

From Nintendo 64 to PS4: the video games with the best graphics in my opinion

Pubblicato il da Filippo "Fatum" Barbuscia
Note: This article has been translated from Italian by ChatGPT and may contain errors. Disclaimer: I'm not an expert in graphics and technical data; I base my opinions solely on the limited perception of my imperfect visual system and, of course, the video games I have personally seen (so the PC platform is excluded, as it would make little sense in any case). In this list of titles, you will find those that, in my subjective opinion, have been the games capable of defining their respective ...

Tears of the Kingdom: What I DON’T like about the Nintendo masterpiece

Pubblicato il da Filippo "Fatum" Barbuscia
Note: This article has been translated from Italian by ChatGPT and may contain errors. Let's delve into some aspects of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, of which I've already written in an article with a final praise. Artistically beautiful, but... There's no need to state the obvious, but it's always better to do so: the Switch is a console of limited power, so seeing a game like Tears of the Kingdom running on it is almost a miracle. However, it's pointless to deny that cer...

Is The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom a disappointing Zelda?

Pubblicato il da Filippo "Fatum" Barbuscia
Note: This article has been translated from Italian by ChatGPT and may contain errors. As the number one fan of The Legend of Zelda, Breath of the Wild was a chapter I loved less than its predecessors. Perhaps that's why my hype for Tears of the Kingdom was practically nonexistent. Despite not particularly wanting to step into Link's shoes again, I clearly purchased the game on day one. Several phases marked my new adventure in Hyrule. Here's how it went. PHASE ONE: BOREDOM The ini...

Love Letter to BioShock Infinite: The Best Story Ever Told?

Pubblicato il da Filippo "Fatum" Barbuscia
Note: This article has been translated from Italian by ChatGPT and may contain errors. I've never been a fan of excessive praise, which is one reason why the continuous exaltation of The Last of Us has made me find it somewhat distasteful, even though I consider both Part I and Part II to be good titles. In the same year Naughty Dog released the game, another one came out: BioShock Infinite. In 2013, the latter was my revelation. For me, there's simply no comparison between the two titles. "...

Prince of Persia 2008 like The Last of Us, but five years earlier, that’s why

Pubblicato il da Filippo "Fatum" Barbuscia
Note: This article has been translated from Italian by ChatGPT and may contain errors. I have recently replayed Heavy Rain, Assassin's Creed, Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands, and Prince of Persia 2008, a title that I had almost forgotten about myself. Despite a respectable Metascore, the game wasn't received very well by some parts of the press and especially by a significant portion of players. I can't recall the exact criticisms that were raised, but I imagine that many revolved arou...
