How this trust score was computed
Trust blends alignment (40%): does the outlet rank games the way players do; decoded accuracy (30%): after translating the outlet's own scale habits (a '7/10 means mediocre' scale is decoded, not punished), how well its reviews predict player sentiment; and player-side (30%): on games where press consensus and players sharply disagreed, whose side it took. Recent reviews weigh more (2-year half-life), and the blend is shrunk toward a neutral prior (60) so small samples can't peg the scale. Player quality is launch-window Steam sentiment, so outlets aren't punished for reviewing a launch build that later got patched.
Controversy record: on 57 games where press consensus and players sharply disagreed, this reviewer sided with players 29 times.

- 80Denshattack!Jul 22, 2026 · Bruno Galvão
“The best compliment I can give *Denshattack!* is to say that many people will probably think it’s a Japanese game. This Spanish indie title is such a well-crafted love letter to quirky Japanese games that it actually feels like one of the games it pays homage to.”

“Black Flag Resynced shines with its spectacular graphics, but just about everything else falls short. The animation and logic glitches—including getting “stuck” in the environment—the lackluster narrative, and the extreme simplification of combat mean it isn’t a very fun game.”

“Team Ninja's accessible and explosive fighting action is back in a sort of remaster/expanded version that goes beyond the limitations of the previous generation to fully realize the developer's vision. Even with more fighters, Last Round needed more content, but it remains a lot of fun.”

“Elliot's Adventure is a delightful RPG that perfectly captures the charm of the '90s classics. The simplicity of the experience makes it much more fun than you'd expect; the story is interesting and the soundtrack is captivating.”

“This unexpected hybrid of Hitman and Uncharted results in a fun, cinematic action-spy game. Full of charisma and worthy of its incredible legacy, 007: First Light is an exciting first step in a new series, where the good far outweighs the not-so-good.”

“Legacy of the Dark Knight isn’t just one of the best LEGO Batman games—it’s one of the best Batman games and one of the best LEGO games, an experience that delivers on virtually every level. It’s even better when played in co-op.”

“Indiana Jones and the Great Circle underscores the Nintendo Switch 2’s unique standing among Nintendo consoles: it’s the home of ambitious blockbusters from partner studios—games that are a lot of fun to play and capable of delivering surprises whether you’re playing on the TV or holding the console in your hands.”

“Cruising down Japan’s roads in Forza Horizon 6 is a visually unforgettable experience with superb handling. It may have played it safe and have a few technical glitches, but the sheer volume of content, the love for car culture, and the pure fun are more than guaranteed.”

“Pragmata looks like a game straight out of the PS3 era, with that Japanese energy that amazed generations. Once abundant, this ingenuity seems close to extinction and only resurfaces on rare occasions. This is one of them, where the main objective is to entertain the player and make them feel energized by the experience.”

“Mega Man Star Force Legacy Collection lets you play several Capcom classics that were practically lost on today's platforms. They're quirky games with good ideas, but they don't hide their time and the humble platform they were made for.”

“Not even Destiny's brilliant gunplay can save Marathon from its own mess. Bungie's new shooter drowns in too much visual noise, rudimentary menus and boredom. An extraction shooter that doesn't innovate and becomes tiresome long before it becomes fun. If you're hardcore in this genre, Marathon can be seen in a much more optimistic light.”

“Capcom has achieved a strong evolution over its predecessors, which are light years ahead of what is done here. The combat is fun, the story and visuals win you over, while the design works very well to keep you focused on the adventure.”

“Requiem is yet another powerful Resident Evil experience that conveys an enormous desire to follow this series. The two sides of Resident Evil are explored with thrilling effectiveness to achieve a very entertaining game that is a pleasure to play over and over again.”

“Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined aims to fix issues with the original by adapting it to the modern era. The result is an extremely accessible JRPG with immense aesthetic charm and a storyline that is a pleasure to follow.”
