    LEGO Marvel Super Heroes
    Co-op problems aside, LEGO Marvel Super Heroes is one of the most fun games I’ve played this year.
    • 73 Metascore

    Call of Duty: Ghosts
    The single-player story (with a few caveats), the co-op mode Extinction and the multiplayer that will have you staying up late into the morning hours for months to come all balance well with each other and act as a testament that Infinity Ward has truly delivered a title worthy of the Call of Duty games of old.

    Batman: Arkham Origins
    We were happy to see so many delightfully crafted boss fights, even though the actual clashes and brawls weren’t as challenging as we hoped. They are still very entertaining and were excellently incorporated into the main tale.

    Beyond: Two Souls
    The gameplay has vastly improved for this new genre, the game mechanics and puzzle solving are unique and fun, the voice acting was incredible, and it is visually stunning. It’s very unfortunate that the story has continuity difficulties, unnecessary padding, too many boring stretches, and repeated plot devices, as the story is what’s supposed to keep you going in an interactive drama.

    Diablo III
    In short, it doesn’t matter if you’ve seen it all before, you’ll still enjoy the hell out of it.
    • 97 Metascore
    • 98 Critic Score
    Grand Theft Auto V
    Grand Theft Auto 5 defines what we want out of a free-roam action game. It also outshines all of its predecessors in every possible way, because it perfects the familiar formula and takes it to new heights.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Outlast
    Outlast is a game designed to frighten even those who deem themselves hard to scare. What we have here is a proper survival-horror game that thankfully doesn’t make the transition to the action genre like so many other horror-themed games these days.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Blacklist
    It’s a thoroughly entertaining game that provides a healthy mix of action and stealth.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 37 Critic Score
    Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs
    A Machine for Pigs takes Amnesia's formula and shows us how to screw it up. The idea had huge potential, but it's squandered on what frankly is a cheap and uninvolving game. This was an extremely disappointing experience.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 69 Critic Score
    Lost Planet 3
    Lost Planet 3 is a bit of a wasted opportunity, but still a journey worth taking if you’re into some solid action and pretty visuals.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Shelter
    The base idea has plenty of potential, although for some reason the developer built only the bare minimum around it. At least the game is cheap. If you're looking for something unusual, and temporarily weird but in semi-satisfying way, I recommend giving it a chance.

    The Bureau: XCOM Declassified
    All I got out of The Bureau was stress on the battlefield and boredom in the base.
    • 38 Metascore
    • 20 Critic Score
    DARK
    As much as I’d like to describe this game as ‘challenging’ I really can’t, in all good conscience do that, because I’d rather use the word ‘frustrating’. Not just because the game’s technologically underdone and has dumb AI, but because of the monotonous gameplay.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    The Swapper
    Even though simplicity is at the very heart of this game, it’s a dynamic experience as the player pulls off one unique challenge after another.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Company of Heroes 2
    Company of Heroes 2 feels much like playing the same game we’ve played all those years back. Apart from that, it honestly doesn’t offer any changes to a familiar formula.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing
    The gameplay is well-executed, albeit it gets increasingly repetitive as you move on with the story (which, as we’ve already said, leaves a lot to be desired).
    • 65 Metascore
    • 62 Critic Score
    Remember Me (2013)
    Overall, Remember Me is just another graduate of Luc Besson's Style Over Substance Academy. It looks amazing and manages to be convincing in minor cutscenes, but the issues it raises are handled superficially and every problem is ultimately solved through violence.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    Defiance
    Only time will tell if the game linked to a TV series shtick will pan out, but for the time being, I am glad Trion is taking the risk.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    Metro: Last Light
    Crisp PC graphics make the game a visual marvel and there are some truly gorgeous and memorable moments in the game.
    • 91 Metascore
    • 95 Critic Score
    Fez
    There’s a touch of brilliance to this game. You feel the incentive to play on, because solving a puzzle unlocks a new door and you enter into another uncharted and mysterious world. We love the music and the retro-style, pixelized art. Fez harks back to 2D classics, so if you’re anything like me, nostalgia should kick in almost instantly.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon
    The whole game looks and sounds cool. In fact, Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon is excessive, cheesy and utterly ridiculous, but above all else, it doesn’t take itself seriously and that’s really all we ask for, seeing as we’ve been killing dinosaurs with lasers for the last several hours.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Injustice: Gods Among Us
    It’s superhero heaven and a fine tribute to some of the most recognized characters from the DC Comics universe.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    Starcraft II: Heart of the Swarm
    The AI puts up a decent fight in every mission.
    • 94 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    BioShock Infinite
    It feels smashing to play it, but it’s almost even more fun to watch someone else play it.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    The Bridge (2013)
    The Bridge is brilliantly designed to test one's wits without frustrating him/her in the least bit.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    Gears of War: Judgment
    We’re directing our biggest complaint to both Epic and People Can Fly for failing to achieve much on the single-player front. The atmosphere kind of lacks all that tension and excitement from previous games (think Gears of War 2).
    • 86 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    Tomb Raider
    Our main beef is that the developers have spent an excessive amount of time polishing and perfecting those cinematics and QTEs, instead of developing more engaging puzzles and even the occasional riddle wouldn’t have gone amiss.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    Crysis 3
    Although you still get some satisfaction from features that you’ve seen before, ultimately we can’t underline anything memorable this time around, at least nothing that would compare to the quality of the previous two titles.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance
    All the features, boss fights, stealth elements and VR missions just can’t compensate for the game’s relatively short story mode, as well as some nasty AI bugs and annoying camera issues.
    • 45 Metascore
    • 49 Critic Score
    Aliens: Colonial Marines
    Veteran FPS players won’t waste more than an hour on it. Everyone else should scream in contempt at the developers; rightfully so. Ideas such as the ‘Escape’ mode are cool, although whether you choose solo or multiplayer, be warned that the novelty soon wears off as Aliens Colonial Marines shows its true colors, unveiling an excruciatingly dull first-person shooter with all the entertainment value of tap-dancing hermit crab.
