Racing games tend to follow two paths – either striving for pure simulation or leaning into accessible arcade thrills. Formula Legends, developed by 3DClouds, aims to find a middle ground, offering a stylized tour through motorsport history that mixes authenticity with creative liberties. On PlayStation 5, it presents itself as both a tribute to Formula racing and an approachable entry point for players who may not usually dive into the genre.

How To Train Your Dragon review (4K)
DreamWorks’ How To Train Your Dragon has now received the live-action treatment in Universal Pictures’ 2025 adaptation, which arrives on 4K UHD with a presentation that aims to match the scale and heart of the original animated film.

Hotel Barcelona review (PS5)

EA Sports FC 26 review
With EA Sports FC 26, EA once again takes a step forward in its post-FIFA era, aiming to refine the foundation it built with the first FC entries. The latest release feels less like a reinvention and more like an effort to solidify what’s already there. The pitch action is where the changes are most noticeable, thanks to two new gameplay settings – Authentic Gameplay for those who want a more grounded football experience and Competitive Gameplay for players who prefer the sharp responsiveness and consistency needed in online and Ultimate Team modes. The former slows things down in a way that makes matches feel more tactical, while the latter ensures online play remains fluid and predictable. Continue reading “EA Sports FC 26 review”
