    Pro Evolution Soccer 2013
    Pro Evolution Soccer goes deeper than ever. Thanks to some well thought out additions, the gameplay can be altered more to the players wishes. Newcomers might have some trouble climbing the metaphorical ladder in the arena's (which are still devoid of any atmosphere), but PES-purists can go nuts. Is PES 2013 the ultimate soccer game? It's not, as long as its budget doesn't get a decent boost. It, for instance, lacks licenses and other decorations, but impresses with attractive, unpredictable and assertive soccer.

    Black Mesa
    Black Mesa is a lot of things. It's one of the best mods ever made and a package that offers every Half-Life fan what they want. It's also a chance for newcomers to get to know a game that has been put on a pedestal over the years, in a relatively modern way. But more importantly, it's a very special and entertaining look into the history of shooters.

    Black Desert Online
    Black Desert is one of the few MMORPGs that sees all professions as equals. Some days you can have fun fishing on a boat, while others you might enjoy hunting trolls on the ground. This is an MMO unlike anything we have seen the last few years.

    The Outer Worlds
    The Outer Worlds is Fallout with a heavy scifi influence. A role that gives you so much freedom of choice, whereby every choice also influences the rest of the game in small, practical ways. We have not felt so free in a rpg for a long time.

    Burnout Paradise Remastered
    Burnout Paradise Remastered shows that the original still needs some work after ten years. The mix of speed, sensation and freedom is still near perfect.

    Enter the Gungeon
    The hell of bullets that awaits you when you enter the Gungeon is weirdly addictive, as you have a whole range of weapons and the map changes constantly. The game has a good foundation with great eye for detail, but those beautiful elements do not fully work together all the time, which can hopefully be straightened out with a patch.

    FIFA Soccer 13
    FIFA 13 is the impressive result of years of improvements and tests. The impact-engine really comes into its own and can be felt more properly throughout the rest of the game. Additions like first-touch, dynamic commentary and the skill games provide a fresh take on the already refined and expansive base of FIFA.

    Papers, Please
    Papers, Please gives you a simple task that doesn't ask a lot of you. The game outgrows its mechanics though, by appealing to your moral compass and emotions. This indie game will get under your skin, will have you feeling uncomfortable and have you think about yourself, as a person.

    Super Mario Maker
    Super Mario Maker is a crazy fun way of taking your own spin on thirty years of Mario. It is very easy to use, you can switch between building and playing in an instance and the online experience of sharing levels with other people will keep you busy for an endless period of time.

    Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
    For those who can choose, they should obviously choose the PC-version: it's best controlled with a mouse and keyboard. But the console-version is in no other way inferior to the PC-version. Even there it's one of the best multiplayer shooters available.

    Bad Piggies
    Matching the success of Angry Birds while introducing a new concept seemed like an impossible task for Rovia, but they succeeded with Bad Piggies. It combines that 'I'll-quickly-play-a-game'-feeling with challenging 'build-and-reach-the-finish-line'-puzzle gameplay. It's funny, addicting and last but not least: it doesn't have any birds in it.

    PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds
    PUBG is exactly what the hype says. Its exciting, its filled with explosions and the easy rules make you come back for more. Too bad it is so buggy.

    Moss: Book II
    New ways to interact with the game world allow for stronger collaboration between you and Quill. This makes Moss: Book 2 feel both familiar and innovative.

    GRID Autosport
    Better late than never: the third Grid game is the best one yet, especially when it comes to variety of racing classes, highly developed driving and artificial intelligence. The rough visual edges do not affect the strength of the experience that is reminiscent of the TOCA and DTM heyday of Codemasters.

    Astral Chain
    A chain is only as strong as its weakest link. Astral Chain seems to have been developed with that awareness because every element of the game has been thought out with care and worked out just as careful.

    Total War: Shogun 2 - Fall of the Samurai
    Fall of the Samurai is an excellent mix between old and new forms of warfare, although the game leans more on the new forms of warfare which can make lovers of the old forms feel left out. The expansion is so big on the other hand, that you can't really pass up on it. This expansion lifts the original to new heights.

    Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen
    Dragon's Dogma on PC takes away a few graphical frustrations we had on the console. The improvements the game got in Dark Arisen are still in there, which makes this one of the best and one of the most difficult niche RPG's on the market.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake
    This is an overwhelmingly beautiful retelling of one of the world's most famous Japanese role-playing games. Deepening the story and a new fighting system give newcomers and fans of the first hour an adventure that anyone can enjoy.

    Rise of the Tomb Raider
    The storytelling is not great in Rise of the Tomb Raider, but it does offer a lot more content, more tombs and varied fighting scenes in a very nice setting.

    Dust: An Elysian Tail
    The wonderful hack-and-slash action combined with fluent animations and a beautiful visual presentation make Dust: An Elysian Tail an adventure that you don't want to let go. Fortunately, there's a lot to see aside from the main story in the world of Falana, as to postpone your goodbye with the game quite a bit longer.

    Endless Legend
    Endless Legend has taken a good look at its competitors while introducing some ideas of its own. On top of that, those ideas actually work. The game is beautiful and plays very smoothly, but a few serious bugs tend to ruin the fun.

    Alan Wake II
    Alan Wake 2 keeps you on the edge of your seat throughout. If not with survival horror action, then with an abundance of unexpected plot points and gameplay sequences. This sequel is really completely unique in that respect. Not all risks taken pay off, but Alan Wake 2 is an adventure in atmosphere, story and surprise that you really cannot miss.

    Antichamber
    Whoever wants to try something new in 2013: Antichamber has got you covered. The psychological journey developer Alexander Bruce takes you on makes you forget everything you know about videogames, and everything about the world around you. There is a chance that your brain isn’t ready for this type of psychological violence, but whoever dares to surrender themselves to Antichamber won’t be disappointed.

    Fast RMX
    Fast RMX is not exactly charming, but it is definitely a strong racing game. No matter if you play in handheld mode, on the television, alone or with friends, Fast RMX is a fast challenge in any setting.

    Forza Horizon 2
    Forza Horizon 2 is a sequel by the books: the same concept, but with much more content and a more refined end product. The off-road racing injects the game with some variety, but it also ruins the fun for people who prefer to take the roads, as going off-road is almost always the fastest way to your destination.

    The Dark Pictures Anthology: The Devil in Me
    The Devil in Me is a worthy conclusion to the first season of The Dark Pictures Anthology. The murder mystery is thrilling from start to finish.

    Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed
    Dethroning Mario Kart is an amazing achievement in and of itself, and in that Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed succeeds. It does this as a gorgeous homage with big and small characters from SEGA's franchises, with great courses and gameplay. It's not hard to be impressed by this lovingly crafted, expansive arcade racer.

    Gears of War: Ultimate Edition
    Gears of War: Ultimate Edition is a loving re-release of the original 360-game. The game looks terrific and offers a lot of content, thanks to the additional missions that used to be only available for PC-gamers. It is a good deal, but it still is an oldie as the franchise developed so much over the past years.

    Crash Team Racing: Nitro-Fueled
    Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled is everything the fans had been waiting for. It stays true to the original, while also improving on it. And it is very easy to learn, to make it fun for everyone.
