Lightfield is the blueprint for an interesting idea not executed properly. The flow you experience in this futuristic racer is very unique. But without a career mode and hampered by technical problem the fun is short-lived.

The concept is interesting, but this tower defense with its mobile heroes feels unfinished.

Stylistically and in terms of storytelling Betrayer is very interesting. But in the long run neither mechanics nor game direction can deliver.

While the resource collection is quite motivating and delivers a tense experience, the shooter shows some flaws and the pay-to-win option is simply aggravating.

It starts very promising but after only a few hours you’ll get monotonous action with framerate issues and sometimes poor visuals. From time to time you can feel the games’ strengths, but they are soon overwhelmed by run-of-the mill design.

Visually underground with a boring story and little variety. VR and shooter fans might get more out of this, but this isn't an advertisement for virtual reality.

The concept is interesting, but the freeform rhythm mechanic needs way more finetuning to live up to its promise.

Unstable framerates, pop-ups and brutal aliasing – this console port of a decent shooter should have been scrapped.

This is by far the best rally game by Milestone yet, offering a solid experience with challenging track design. But even though it is vastly improved, visually it still is not up to challenge the likes of DiRT, Gran Turismo 5 or Forza.

In theory (and when it runs without problems) Into The Stars is an interesting fight for survival in space somewhere between Wall-E and FTL. But bugs and the weak presentation drag you back down to Earth.

Solid RPG with a battle system reminiscent of Final Fantasy’s active time battle system and boardgame-like level exploration.

Both in terms of story-telling and mechanically a very superficial as well as drawn out experience.

A good soundtrack and VR immersion are not enough to outweigh the diffuse storytelling and mostly bland visuals.

Except for the surprisingly annoying music and the rather short playtime Sonic shows off his best side: The levels are big and invite you to explore, the teamactions are entertaining. If you're into retro-gameplay, this is one for you.

Repetitive, screamingly colorful and as shallow as a baby pool. Godfall is seems polished, but is as dull as anything. Nonetheless it can drag you in with its simple concept and powerful fight system.

Hungry for Myst 2.0? Then Obduction is right up your alley, where you can expect 12 to 15 hours of modern storytelling mixed with classic adventure virtues. Unfortunately technically not everything is safe and sound.

While the concept still works on the console the greatest horror lies in the technical execution, which is really terrifying with its frame drops, lowres textures and meager sound design.

In times of The Witcher or Dark Souls this is hard to bear. The dialogue is below daily soap standards, the fighting system as superficial as any, visuals are outdated. This is gruesome.

The visuals and fighting system are worth the admission fee, but story, presentation and AI leave a lot of room for much needed improvement.

It could have been an alternative to Mario Kart. But without online play and balancing issues this one decent fun racer becomes a frustrating racer.

Postapocalyptic RPG mixing elements from Mad Max, Terminator and Armored Core with old-fashioned mechanics, storytelling and visuals.

The co-operative alien hunt is a decent Left 4 Dead clone that lacks variety, a decent balance and content in general.

As an interactive audio book The Dwarves works surprisingly well even though some of the cutscenes seem rushed. But as soon as you enter the battlefield the fascination fades and is replaced by hectic, chaotic and sometimes buggy skirmishes.

I love SciFi. And I can’t get enough of games like Sins of a Solar Empire. And that leaves me frustrated when I look an StarDrive and its’ wasted potential. It is ambitious, but fails to deliver on too many levels.

It could have been a decent game, if the fighting system would be more refined, if the AI would react better. Like this it is little more than a tech demo to show the immense power of CryEngine 3. And as this, it is very powerful.

A solid HD remaster of a hidden gem from the PS2/Xbox era. Unfortunately all the visual improvements cannot hide the age of the original while the changes to control and cover systems bring their own problems.

The more characters you know or recognize the more fun you will have with this tremendous roster of animanga star power. But fortunately J-Stars has more to offer, e.g. a solid fighting system and astonishingly diverse characters. The arenas and campaign mode lack variety, though.

Even the inconvenience aside that this year (unlike 2016 and 2015) the console DLC is not included and has to be paid for separately the direction of the dominant wrestling franchise is still unclear. You have more wrestlers than ever before, but with just marginal enhancements of the proven fighting mechanics and reduction of modes you wonder what’s next.
