    Despite being a low budget game built with assets from A Link Between Worlds, Tri Force Heroes is a great Zelda designed for co-op. [13/2015, p.74]

    In terms of gameplay it has nothing to offer apart from an enjoyable but primitive combat. [13/2015, p.74]

    It looks and plays like a poor free game but you have to pay for it. [13/2015, p.73]

    An old school roguelike enriched with some interesting twists. [13/2015, p.73]

    Simplified Dead Space combined with stripped-down Doom 3 and some Deus Ex elements. [13/2015, p.73]

    The game is so good that you need to control yourself around microtransactions to avoid a financial hangover. [13/2015, p.72]

    Astonishing scale, great execution and vast, fresh contents. [13/2015, p.72]

    Exactly what I was looking for – a bike racing game accessible to people who were overwhelmed by MotoGP or SBK series. [13/2015, p.71]

    You shoot monsters with your shoes while falling at high speed. Why? Because video games, that’s why. [13/2015, p.71]

    This is how the only true heir to the old Fallout games should have looked from day one! [13/2015, p.70]

    The latest Need for Speed feels old in every aspect. The driving model, the AI, the story and the characters, the environments – all of it is simply poor. [13/2015, p.68]

    A technically flawed copy of Left 4 Dead that does not even have a proper Warhammer atmosphere. [13/2015, p.66]

    An RTS disguised as a 2D platformer. Sounds weird but works surprisingly well. [13/2015, p.65]

    Heart of Thorns is so good I forgot the flaws that made me lose interest in the original game after my initial delight with it. [13/2015, p.64]

    I can’t express how delighted I was with the first episode. Unfortunately later the game lost some of its magic and oscillated between decent and really good. Despite that fact it’s by far the funniest thing I’ve played in years and I can’t wait to get my hands on the second season. [13/2015, p.63]

    GHL is a great game if you’re playing it alone. I appreciate all the new ideas but I’m really disappointed that it is no longer a party game. [13/2015, p.62]

    Life is Strange managed to land some punches on Telltale’s chin and blew Until Dawn out of the water. [13/2015, p.61]

    You need to look at Devastation as a sandbox that lets you choose your toys and fight battles you dreamed of. [13/2015, p.60]

    The developers failed to deliver on their promise to move the game to Unreal Engine 4 and therefore once again the visuals are at most passable. What’s more important though is that Train Simulator is still, well, the best train simulator. [13/2015, p.59]

    The Deathinitive Edition improves very little, but Darksiders II is still a fantastic game definitely worth checking out if you haven’t done so 3 years ago. [13/2015, p.59]

    The game seemingly had everything that was needed to bring back the glory of Forgotten Realms, but failed due to a shallow story, unimaginative quests and lack of identity. [13/2015, p.58]

    Norwegian horror walker drowns in overused clichés but has some really scary moments. [13/2015, p.57]

    Live 16 is a substantial step forward for the series and less demanding players will enjoy it, but it falls far short of NBA 2K. [13/2015, p.57]

    Metal Gear Online has a great potential, but the developers need to improve and rebalance the game to make it shine. Playing it right after it was released felt like driving a supercar on a road ridden with potholes. [13/2015, p.56]

    Dragon Quest meets Dynasty Warriors and provides dozens of hours of fun (one dozen less would have been beneficial though), tons of side quests, all Japanese DLCs and plenty of special attacks to discover. If you’re looking for a Japanese action RPG and you’re not allergic to Warriors, you should give Dragon Quest Heroes a chance. [13/2015, p.54]

    A beautiful game that shines in co-op but doesn’t have much to offer to a lone player. [13/2015, p.52]

    Both the single player and online modes are fun but don’t expect to be blown away. Despite a great story and a couple of very enjoyable missions the campaign as a whole is a tad boring. [13/2015, p.50]

    The latest Halo is a big deal only for hardcore Halo fans. For me the single player campaign was unbearably pompous and despite 1080p and 60 fps the visuals are not as breathtaking as they once were in Halo 4. The game builds a solid foundation for Halo 6, but it’s not one of those games you absolutely have to play. [13/2015, p.48]

    A real feast for RPG-loving console owners and one of the best games to play in co-op. [13/2015, p.47]

    Another Assassin’s Creed game that you can either buy or ignore sight unseen depending on whether you grew tired of the old formula. Some innovations (e.g. the grappling hook) are a welcome addition, some (like two playable characters and their development system) feel forced and not really thought through. The brightest aspect of Syndicate is London, which might be the most spectacular city in the series. [13/2015, p.42]
