Super Smash is yet another masterpiece by Nintendo that defines the gaming industry, and this time thanks to the Switch console, you can enjoy it everywhere. I would definitely recommend Super Smash to any fan of digital entertainment.

If you are looking for an online multiplayer shooter that is much more realistic than Call of Duty or Battlefield, but is not pain-in-the-ass realistic like Arma series, then Insurgency: Sandstorm is your choice; and with the promise of constant support and free DLCs from the developers, I expect that Insurgency will soon become a big player in this genre.

Legacy of the First Blade is pretty short, lacks content and ends just when it starts to get exciting, and unless you are a die-hard fan of the series, I suggest you to wait until the release of the next DLC to see if it's worth the shot.

Nippon Marathon gets repetitive and boring very soon, is not fun, and is not executed correctly, and if not for its low price, no one would have paid any attention to it.

GRIS is full of joy and elegance, and it's the place where video games meet art. And all this elegance is mixed with simple yet solid gameplay, and offers an experience that cannot be found anywhere other than the video games industry.

Mutant Year Zero is built especially for Turn-Based fans, and if you are one, you should play it.

Just Cause 4 is neither a revolution nor a weak entry in the series, but it is actually the most complete Just Cause title yet. JC4 gathers everything positive from the previous games, adds some other things on top of that, and despite a repetitive gameplay and some story telling issues, still manages to at least satisfy the fans of the series.

Even after fifteen years, Katamari Damacy Reroll is still a very fun game to play, both for old fans and newcomers.

Jagged Alliance: Rage is yet another release that uses the Jagged Alliance name but fails to deliver. The turn-based gameplay and the survival elements are good enough, but in other areas there are tons of shortcomings that not only disappoints the old fans of the series but also fails to ward off competition from other turn-based titles available on the market.

Jujubee S.A.’s efforts in creating a different narrative style is admirable, and they did a great job in designing a solid atmosphere and a dynamic environment. But when it comes to presenting a video game inspired by real historical events, KURSK falls a little bit short, and besides that the core gameplay is not really entertaining either.

Yyron Lannister once told john Snow to know your weaknesses and wear them like armor. That’s exactly what the creators of Earth Defense Force 5 are doing. They know exactly what problems and shortages their game is suffering from, and yet instead of just trying to hide them, they throw them in your face and even make fun of them, and that’s really brave. EDF 5 is not perfect, and everybody knows that. But it’s fun and offers everything you would expect from an EDF game.

Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom is an extremely fun and entertaining game that not only pays homage to the Wonder Boy series, but also takes the matters into its own hands and delivers one of the best platforming experiences of this generation.

Although there is not much improvements comparing to the previous DLC, Turf Wars is still a solid action-adventure due to its core gameplay mechanics, and plays an important role in laying the ground for Spider-Man: Silver Lining.

Despite some technical setbacks, the 3rd release in the Darksiders series is exactly what the fans enjoyed from the previous installments. Solid gameplay, great character design, lots of different content types and that unique feeling that the series is known for, all of which help Darksiders III to overcome its technical problems and to stand up as a strong Action RPG.

The main problem with Fallout 76 is that it is built by a company which has specialized at creating solid single-player titles, and the result is countless bugs and technical issues. Maybe Bethesda is laying the foundation and gaining experience for future MMO titles, or maybe they’ll improve it by releasing patches and more, but in its current state, Fallout 76 is a not a title worthy of the Fallout name.

For die-hard fans of the series, there is nothing new to be found here, but for those who never had a chance to get their hands on any of the Castlevania titles, this collection would be a perfect start to enter the Castlevania world.

Battlefield V is exactly what you expect from a Battlefield title, and nothing more. A mediocre single-player campaign, mixed with a solid multiplayer and superior visuals and sound design. But the problem is that there's no notable improvements from the previous version, and the game is buggy and incomplete. Maybe future updates and DLCs will solve everything, but at its current state, Battlefield V is just another Battlefield title.

The Shapeshifting Detective tries so hard to create a game that looks like movies, but it has failed to fulfill its potentials and the final product is a somehow shallow experience without much replayability values.

Considering IO Interactive’s plans for Hitman reboot from day one, Hitman 2 is more like a second season for the 2016 title rather than a new Hitman experience. If you accept this fact, and if you liked the 2016 title, then you’ll enjoy Hitman 2, as it’ll present you with tons of freedom within very well-designed levels.

Just Dance 2019 might not be considered as a video game by a great many, but in a friends gathering or a family reunion, one the most fun things to do is playing Just Dance. Due to weak controls and lack of any tutorial, Just Dance can never be a good dance teacher, but if you are professional dancer, then it is the real deal for you.

As a DLC, The Heist can be considered a good title, though it could have been better. The Heist offers just enough to engage and keep the players thirsty for the next two DLCs.

It doesn’t matter if you are gamer, a human being, or an alien from another planet; Red Dead Redemption 2 is a title that you just can’t miss. The bar set by RDR2 is so high that even Rockstar itself will probably have a hard time raising it. One of the best releases in the history of digital entertainment.

If we ever decide to list the clones for Mario Kart, no other title will be able to challenge Nickelodeon Kart Racers for the bottom spot.

Although the latest entry in the Call of Cthulhu universe is not a perfect one, every little bit of it stays true to the H.P Lovecraft stories, and that’s the most important thing for the fans of the series.

The Complete Edition of The Escapists can be easily considered the best entry in the series, but only because of Nintendo Switch. The gameplay mechanics and Switch capabilities are a royal match, and the addition of all the expansion packs in a package that costs only 15 dollars, makes it a title you want to have on your portable console.

The Witcher Tales is a strange potion that is surprisingly good. From a logical point of view, a game that mixes so many genres together can’t be this amazing, but then comes CDPR, a company that is just unable to develop bad titles.

Starlink: Battle for Atlas is not just a simple arcade title, as many would have thought; and while the potentials of this genre might be limited, Starlink still has a lot to offer including great combat, wonderful space atmosphere and endless discoveries.

For Honor: Marching Fire is what the original For Honor should have been, as Ubisoft did a great job of addressing many of the shortcomings of the original title as well as showing glimpses of what to except from the series in the future.

Warriors Orochi 4 suffers from lots of problems and issues, and if you are not familiar with the series, think twice before going for it, as there are far better options available on the market. But for the hardcore fans of the genre, Warriors Orochi 4 can be entertaining, especially for those who doesn’t like the open world setting of Dynasty Warriors 9.

Although there is no story-based single player campaign as we know in the COD series, Black Ops 4 is still one of the best COD experiences ever. A full-featured multiplayer campaign, along with a solid Zombie mode, and of course the new Blackout mode that adds Battle Royal features to the series, make Black Ops 4 not only of the best entries in the series, but also one of the best games of 2018.

The Bard's Tale IV is a mixed potion that can offer a very fun gameplay experience as well as seriously damaging your nerves. It offers more than 30 hours of gameplay for just 35 dollars, and when all elements are working, it can be fun and enjoyable. But then technical issues kick in and along with a very strange save mechanism, ruin your day! The Bard' Tale IV is surely a charismatic title and if you can cope with its flaws, you can have great fun; but it still has a lot of issues to address in order to be considered one of the elite titles of the genre.

It is safe to say that WWE 2K19 takes the crown from its predecessor by giving another shot to the 2K Showcase and implementing several improvements in gameplay and sound design, and convinces the players to spend more time playing it; and although some issues are still remaining, the WWE 2K series has the potential to become one of the best sports series in the coming years.

Forza Horizon 4 is a prime example of a complete racing title, and although the racing genre is not as popular as it once was, Horizon 4 still manages to raise the standards and present itself not only as the best entry in the Horizon series but as one of the best racing titles of all time. What we see today in Horizon 4, including both superb offline and online sections, is incredible sound design for every single vehicle, and amazing visuals that are mixed with a beautiful change of seasons. All are examples that other developers can use for their future titles.

In Pathfinder: Kingmaker, you can see the footprints of many great names in the video games industry, but it seems that the main development team was neither able nor experienced enough to execute the game’s ideas and potentials in a right way, and even if you don’t take its many technical issues into consideration, Pathfinder: Kingmaker is still far from a proper CRPG.

With Roads episode, Dontnod once again proved how good they are in creating modern adventures and mixing them with sensational stories and over the top character designs. There are tons of improvements comparing to the previous version and while the ending of the episode could’ve been better, there is still much to enjoy from.

Assassin’s Creed long journey apparently comes to an end in Greece, where Ubisoft Quebec upgrades the standards they presented with Origins; a turning point that made Odyssey the best Assassin’s Creed title of this generation.

Original Sin 2 is one the best games in the recent years, and one of the most complete RPGs of all time, period. Everything a hardcore RPG fan would want from a game is on offer here, and you can barely find another title that mixes the classic table-top Role Playing elements with digital media so ingeniously. Not only for RPG fans, but for everybody else, Original Sin 2 is one of the best choices of 2018.

The Gardens Between is a beautiful and innovative journey to the memories; memories of friendship and kindness that will make you wonder. If only the journey was not so short, it could've been one of the best experiences you'll ever have.

If you have an extra 25$, you can choose to spend it on a short trip to the world of Transference, though a few exciting and maybe scary moments aside, your trip might not be as good as you have imagined.

The 4th installment in V-Rally series is not the sequel that can take the series forward. In total, there is not a specific mechanic that can be considered as a weakness, but the problem is that there is neither notable improvements nor exciting new features to help the series gain a position among top quality racing titles.

All the small issues and problems aside, I personally spent more than 200 hours playing through PUBG, including 650 rounds, and do not feel bored at all. At first glance, PUBG may seem like a dangerous entry to the video games industry, and Battle Royale may not be acceptable as a standalone genre, but maybe 5 years from now, when Battle Royale will be the main focus of every multiplayer title, we will admire PUBG and understand the importance of ultimate freedom.

While Shadow of the Tomb Raider does not feel as fresh as the 2013 title, it concludes the rebooted trilogy on high ground. Shadow of the Tomb Raider is the most complete entry in the trilogy that manages to gather all the great elements from the two previous titles and take them to the next level. Now we have to wait and see how this legendary series will form in the future.

Dragon Quest XI has managed to stay true to its roots and also adds tons of new features thanks to a new, powerful engine. If you've never had the chance to enter the world of Dragon Quest, now is the best time.

Marvel's Spider-Man is not only the best Spider-Man ever made, but it's also one of the best superhero titles of all time, as well as being one of the best games of 2018. Surfing New York in the shoes of Peter Parker has never been this good, and may never be this good again. An engaging and fresh story, wonderful environments, solid gameplay, top-notch visuals, what else would one need to enjoy a game?

Shadows: Awakening is a fun Action RPG that does not bring anything new to the table, but manages to stay fresh and engaging due to its great character and gameplay design.

Even with some technical issues, Planet Alpha is a very fun game to play. Don’t expect another Limbo or Inside, but the environments design alone can justify buying it.

Pro Evolution Soccer 2019 is the most real football simulator currently available on the market, and it offers a great football experience to both hardcore and arcade players. Nevertheless, the same old problems and issues such as teams and players licenses kick back in and prevent PES2019 from becoming the most complete football simulator too.

For fans of racing genre, F1 2018 is a must have, and even though some minor issues like AI may sometimes affect the overall gameplay experience, F1 2018 remains a solid racing simulator.

Ninjin: Clash of Carrots tries so hard be like old time Beat 'em Up titles, and even tries to change the genre's formula by using Endless Runner mechanics, but it has failed in both, and the final result is a shallow, repetitive، boring and incomplete Beat 'em Up title.

State of Mind has nothing special to offer for Sci-Fi fans and even arcade gamers, and besides that, the gameplay is slow and the potentially solid story isn't developed well enough. But it still is a step forward for Daedalic Entertainment who did a great job in designing a futuristc Berlin 30 years from now.

Guacamalee 2 is a wonderful sequel who takes the core gameplay of the previous title to the next level by addressing every single issue and adding a lot more stuff to it, and even though it may not feel like a fresh experience as its predecessor did, it still has a lot to offer.

Hypergun is filled with exciting boss fights and tons of different weapons, but the overall experience is short, repetitive and buggy. Yet, it can be considered a cheap ($15) alternative that may be fun for a few hours.

The game may seems a little hard at the beginning but after some exercise you can find it entertaining and highly playable. It is totally expected that you repeat and repeat to achieve higher scores, a process that is really enjoyable. I must admit that this game is better than what I have expected before playing it and is a step forward for its creators.

Two years after its initial release, No Man’s Sky have developed into a whole different game. Tons of new content, several updates and patches for the online section, more features for crafting system, new missions, and many, many more added features have made NMS a valuable title.

If you are not a fan of the genre or you cant get along with its slow tempo, it may be better to just ignore it. But nevertheless, an engaging story mix with a deep atmosphere make Narcosis a very unique title.

This is the Police 2 is a big step forward for Weaapy Studio, who delivered a much better experience compared to the previous game.

Mushroom Wars 2 neither revolutionize the RTS genre, nor bring new ideas to it, and simply aims for providing a fun and entertaining experience. So if you are not looking for a very deep gameplay or engaging story, Mushroom Wars 2 would be a very good option for you.

The Crew 2 has a lot of potential, but its great graphics and sound design don’t make up for its lack of content, lack of online multiplayer and weak AI. Maybe it’ll get better via monthly updates as the previous version did, but at the moment, The Crew 2 is not so superior to its predecessor.

The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit is a mediocre adventure game, even though it’s free-to-play. However, if you are a fan of Life is Strange series, it can very well serve as an appetizer for Life is Strange 2.

After releasing Monster Energy Supercross, it seemed that Milestone was destined for more and more success, but after the release of two incomplete titles, Gravel and now MotoGP 18, it seems that not only Milestone has lost its way, but also is destroying its reputation.

Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection is a rich collection of classic SF titles, and despite some bizarre issues here and there, it’s a must have for every Street Fighter fan.

When it comes to feeling like being a Vampire, Vampyr really shines. Story is great and NPCs play a huge role in gameplay.

Shape of the World is not exactly a video game, it’s a digital art, and is not made for those who are looking for an engaging gameplay or an appealing story. But those who are looking for a couple of relaxing hours, will definitely find a thing or two to enjoy.

Detroit: Become Human is a movie you are directing. Each and every character’s fate is in your hands, and along the way, you’ll live and laugh and cry with them over and over again. Definitely the best title from Quantic Dream to date.

Conan Exiles is dated and full of bugs, but it's also very fun due to a good story and huge amount of contents, and if you can overlook its many technical issues, you might end up having a great time playing it.

Despite a good story, eye-catching art design and solid combat, Omensight has suffered from very poor controls, and there are minor issues which can affect the gameplay. All in all, Omensight is a good game, and it might be worth a shot.

These are the decisions that you have to make if you are to lead your people through beautiful and atmospheric frozen wastelands of Frostpunk.

In many aspects, Hellblade is a very different video game. Offering an epic atmosphere along with interactive, psychological story-telling, Hellblade takes you on an unprecedented journey, and aims for your feelings in the process.

Plain and simple, God of War is one of the best games ever. Good luck to the other Game-of-the-Year contenders. The next generation is here.

The 5th installment in Far Cry franchise is yet another effort by Ubisoft to build on a successful formula, And while some elements such as story and AI are not as good as we’d expected, the core mechanics of THE gameplay are so great that it’s just impossible not to love it. Far Cry 5 tastes as good as its big brother, Far Cry 3. Maybe even tastier.

Into the Breach is a prime example that shows no matter the budget, not matter the technology, no matter the graphics, you can always make a great game if you have that wonderful idea. Focusing solely on gameplay at the expense of everything else, Into the Breach is just one of the most entertaining games you’ve ever experienced.

Mulaka is a great, charming choice for the fans of action adventure genre, especially those who love the Zelda series. Filled with combat and challenging puzzles, Mulaka will unfold the myths that you may have never heard about before.

Attack on Titan 2 is not necessarily a bad game, but it's not the type of game that typical hack and slash fans enjoy. However, Manga fans and Manga newcomers will definitely find something here.

It always feels great to be able to play enhanced versions of good old titles on new consoles; but in Devil May Cry's case, there's not enough to get excited about, as visuals are dated and old issues are still there. If you are not a fan of the series, you should probably ignore this one.

All in all, Gravel is a mediocre racing game; one that cannot challenge any of the top quality racing titles currently available on the market. The game has many qualities that the other recent release from Milestone enjoyed, but unlike the motorcycle racing genre, the car racing genre is too crowded.

The moment you step in the Possum Springs, You’ll fall in love with it. Setting the bar high for interactive storytelling, Night in the Woods does every other thing just right; from magical artistic design to charming music to smart dialogues. One of the best indie titles in recent years.

Metal Gear Survive is a mediocre survival game, and that’s it. All the great things about the Metal Gear franchise are gone and all you can find here is hour after hour after hour of repetitive survival gameplay. This is how you kill a franchise.

As a fan of the Mana series, this remake is a huge opportunity to try the old title in a new fashion. But as a fan of RPG genre, few players can survive this lengthy, shallow experience.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance is a very deep, atmospheric and ultra-realistic RPG title that will really challenge every hardcore fan of the genre.
