Bloodborne analysis
When Sony offers creative freedom to From Software to develop an exclusive game for PlayStation 4 the only thing that can come out of this combination is a great game and, with BloodborneWithout a doubt From Software touched the perfection of role-playing and action games where the gameplay tests the skill of the most skilled players. Hidetaka Miyazaki is the director of this impressive work that mixes a dark city of European style, brutal terror and the most creepy creatures you can find in a video game. Its difficulty does not make it an accessible game of first -although it is not comparable to the Dark Souls license-, but when you pass its phases and bosses you will be rewarded with extra satisfaction.

Gran Turismo Sport (2017)
"GTSport has the cleanest and most sporty online mode I've had the pleasure of playing"
Release Date: October 17, 2017
Analysis of Gran Turismo Sport
Gran Turismo Sport is today the best multiplayer bet in driving that you will find on consoles. While on PC we can discover great titles such as iRacing or Assetto Corsa, in the panorama of desktop platforms the best option is without a doubt GT Sport for PlayStation 4. You will not find a campaign mode in the old way, but by the opposite one complete online slope full of competitions and tests. In his analysis we highlight the special care he put the studio to create careers according to each level of player, but especially the video game community. One of the most prominent in its category.
Horizon Zero Dawn (2017)
Again we are faced with an action and adventure game in an open world but, this time, in a science fiction universe where machines have joined nature in a fusion rarely seen in advance A natural and brutal world of an enviable university, full of dangerous – and sometimes gigantic – animal-shaped machines that occupy the top of the dominant chain of species.

Marvels Spider-Man (2018)
It might seem that at this point everything related to Spider-Man, the fantastic Marvel heroes, was already invented and that no game could surprise us. Nevertheless Marvel’s Insomniac Games Spider-Man managed to stand out and be a reference for future titles inspired by hero comics. The player holsters the spiderman meshes to face a large number of missions in a huge city to explore, with dynamic events and various types of collectibles. We will face a good amount of usual Spider-Man villains while developing a base story centered on the Doctor Octopus. A visual show if we enjoy it at 4K and with HDR.
Shadow of the Colossus (2018)
Shadow of the Colossus was already a true titan, never better said, on PlayStation 2. A masterpiece within the industry that is still in force today. The TeamIco studio created an adventure in capital letters, but on its original platform it was weighed down by the limitations of the machine. BluePoint further improved the experience, making it the ultimate trip. Shadow of the Colossus for PlayStation 4 looks downright incredible, leaving the title unalterable in the playable terrain. A title that should not be missing in any Sony console.
The Last Guardian (2016)
The Last Guardian is the last work of Fumito Ueda, the mind behind Shadow of the Colossus. The story of The Last Guardian for PS4 is not easy, and we don't mean its plot, but its tortuous development. While it was originally announced for PlayStation 3, finally the creative and his team decided to make the leap to PlayStation 4 in order to avoid technical problems as happened with Shadow of the Colossus on PS2
Uncharted 4: The Thief's End (2016)
Naughty had a more than complicated mission with Uncharted 4 for PS4. We talked about the closing of the adventures of Nathan Drake. An iconic character of the PlayStation brand and that would kick off its history in the last generation. Once again, The Last of Us parents did not disappoint, offering us the most round delivery to date. of the Uncharted saga. A video game in which the action and adventure component is more present than ever. To all this we must also add a portentous visual section.
Until Dawn (2015)
"Until Dawn is like being inside a slasher movie"
Release Date: August 26, 2015
Until Dawn analysis
Supermassive Games adapted the formula of Quantic Dream games, such as Beyond Dos Almas or Heavy Rain, to a genre that never goes out of style: terror. The result was more than remarkable. And is that Until Dawn for PlayStation 4 is a safe bet to enjoy in company, or alone, if we want to live an authentic slasher experience. The cinematographic influences are more than clear, but they are precisely the decisions we will make throughout the video game what will decant the plot to one side or another.
Bonus Extra: Death Stranding (2019)
"Death Stranding is an AAA release with blockbuster skin but independent soul"
Release Date: November 8, 2019
Death Stranding Analysis
It is not an exclusive with all the letters, since will be launched in summer 2020 on PC, but at the moment it is still an exclusive on PlayStation 4 consoles. Hideo Kojima's first AAA away from Konami's umbrella it has been a title that, without being perfect, has innovated in the development of open-world adventures and, of course, with that esoteric and disconcerting touch that characterize the works of the Japanese director. Death Stranding is a different journey, a game that is probably one of contrasts: either you love it or hate it, there is no middle ground.
