    Way Out is a great mixture of a movie and a game. The performance of the actors is fairly poor at times and the gameplay somewhat simple, but the creativity and co-op experience are excellent.

    For a game that wants to do so many things at once, it is remarkable how well Dungeons of Hinterberg manages to keep all the balls in the air. The special setting and cozy vibes make this a unique version of a game where you have to slaughter monsters in dungeons.

    Yes, Full Throttle is still a unique adventure game from the classics of LucasArts. The new look and feel however, are not always as great.

    The Tomb Raider Trilogy makes you realise why gaming is actually the best hobby of them all: Because you can sink neck-deep into amazingly large worlds full of adventure and dangers. All three of the games in the trilogy fit in the current game-society and have very diverse gameplay. The transfer to PlayStation 3 is a successful one, and there aren't many games that can offer you this much value for your money.

    This game might be a bit easy, it is still very fun to discover this well created world. It is amazing how well two game genres are mixed into one game.

    Tiger Woods might not be groundbreaking, but it offers a very deep and challenging experience. The game has a great amount of realism and the added features work fine. Golf sims don't get any better than this.

    Awesomenauts adds a nice twist to the moba genre. The two-dimensional platform action, and tactical, insight reliant and team play focused strategy mechanics go hand in hand, surprisingly enough. After Swords & Soldiers another great game by Ronimo Games.

    Shooting enemies and blowing things up, without having to think about complicated gameplay mechanics - That is Rocket Riot in a nutshell. With a unique retro look, this is a game that fans of Liero or Soldat don't want to miss.

    Narita Boy is a perfect ode to the 80's with amazing sidescrolling action in a neon world. This game is so creative, we love it.

    Dead Space has enough new elements to make a memorable experience out of it. The lack of a HUD, the use of telekenetic powers and the original weapons all contribute to that. Even the setting, a spaceship, is done so well that there is enough variety in the environments. The controls could have been a bit more direct, but Dead Space is still a perfect way to have a few scary nights.

    Trials Evolution Gold is a very entertaining game with lots of spectacle, variation and challenges. It’s a shame that Redlynx didn’t go through much effort to create a worthy port to PC’s though, but that doesn’t take away from the fact that it can easily be recommended.

    No matter from what perspective you look at it, The Vanishing of Ethan Carter is an impressive title. The special storytelling, absurdly beautiful game world and the intimate atmosphere make this a game for everyone.

    The Collectables is a funny, light and free strategy game. You decide whether your want to cool down after a game, or want to spend a tack of gold to keep playing. With replayable missions Crytek rewards you with enough currency to just keep on going.

    Nintendo successfully adds another dimension to Picross. Thinking in three dimensions takes some getting used to, but after a while you can create the most beautiful figures from the grey blocks.

    Far Cry 2 isn't able to deliver on its expectations, but is still a high quality shooter with lots of freedom and one of the most beautiful settings ever. The developers could have been more creative with the mission structure though.

    BioWare says its goodbyes in style. With their last DLC, Trespasser, they put all your favorite characters in the spotlight and they make us long for a new game sooner rather than later.

    Let It Die is a pretty crazy action RPG that can take a lot of your time. The game is free to play, but does not make you pay every five seconds, which is great.

    Sonic Colours is a beautiful and challenging game that both old Sonic-fans and newcomers will appreciate. The problems with Sonic and having freedom in three dimensions remain, but you'll soon forget those parts when you're flying through 2D-levels at full speed.

    The Shake Dimension is an excellent platform game that despite his simple gameplay elements turns out to be a worthy installment of the Wario franchise. Although the playful graphics will not attract every gamer, it only adds up to Wario's characteristics. Every platform gamer will enjoy this game.

    Bungie offers more of the same with The Taken King, but does change the feel of Destiny. That makes this first real DLC a great moment to start playing Destiny, as The Taken King complements Destiny in both quality and quantity.

    Condemned 2 is a pleasant but also frightening game in which the gameplay feels quite fresh. The fighting system works great and the murder investigations are a good way to involve the player into the storyline. Unfortunately the game doesn't stay as fun as the first few missions.

    Loop Hero is an interesting combination of genres with a very own flavour. This deck builder or roguelite or tower defense game goes deeper than you might think.

    The Hitman franchise seems to be going in the right direction. The loading times are annoying, but the gameplay is an ideal mixture of stealth, puzzle and adventure.

    Given the fact that the gameplay still appeals lets us know we are dealing with a good quality product. So if you are looking for a nice fighting game with a beautifully worked out multiplayer, then Bleach: The Blade of Fate is definitely your game.

    Oceanhorn is not quite original, but has enough character to stand alone. As a matter of fact, there aren't many games that reach this level of audio-visual fidelity. Every self respecting handheld adventure gamer should pick this up.

    Tacoma offers an interesting insight into six crew members that spend a year on a space station together. Gone Home was more engaging, but the special way of telling this story about six deep characters is definitely worth your time.

    After Partners in Time seemed like a repetition, Bowser’s Inside Story feels fresh again thanks to the addition of a playable Bowser and the interaction with him and the Mario brothers!

    PixelJunk Shooter 2 once again proves that creative minds have all the space they need on the current generation of consoles. The mixing of different elements (like water, lava, gas and oil) is innovative, works extremely well and is expertly executed. What makes this interesting from start to finish are the different elements each level brings with it.
