Halo Wars can be classified as the first successful console-RTS. The development team kept an eye on the limitations of the player, put in a fair amount of action and turned Halo Wars into a real console game. Gamers that have never played a RTS or stopped playing it because of its high complexity will find Halo Wars a very entertaining game. Die hard RTS fans will find it a little bit less entertaining.- Gamer.nl

Both ICO and Shadow of the Colossus look so much sharper and more colorful thanks to this HD-remake, but we can't ignore the cracks ICO starts to show. Shadows of the Colossus is still relevant and awesome today, but has some problems with loading textures.- Gamer.nl

Greak: Memories of Azur will surprise and delight you with its quirky characters and rich color palette. Behind this cute aesthetic is also a particularly robust and creative puzzle platformer that focuses on working together with your big brother and sister. There are flaws associated with this mechanic, that the player will have to accept.- Gamer.nl

On the Playstation 3 Unreal Tournament III has become a great game. Even without a keyboard and mouse combination, the game stays fast and precise like the gameplay has always been. The adding of mods within consoles may be called unique. Unreal Tournament III is an excellent shooter which will keep PS3 owners satisfied for a while.- Gamer.nl

It's on like Donkey Kong once more! This game just oozes the vibe of the old platformgames, and in some ways it feels even more fluid than the original series. The co-op doesn't add much though and the rolling and blowing that you can activate by shaking the Wii-controller sometimes feels contrived or downright irritating.- Gamer.nl

Beautiful graphics, well thought through humour and addictive gameplay that will offer hours and hours of gameplay. That's what you'll get if you buy Little King's Story. It's a mystery why you can't point your Wiimote and give a character a simple order, but in the end the game will even put a smile on the face of the biggest sourpuss.- Gamer.nl

Although the concept of Batman: Arkham City Lockdown seems to be nothing more than an Infinity Blade-clone at first glance, the authentic Batman elements like gadgets, the music and costume amaze once again. It's a fun action game that'll keep you interested longer then you'll expect.- Gamer.nl

Until Dawn is a beautiful remake, but feels a bit redundant for fans of the original. With beautiful, vibrant environments, realistic detail, cinematic music, more engaging lore, expanded exploration options and a single new ending, the remake does feel like a ‘complete’ version of Until Dawn. For newcomers it is certainly recommended, but with no cheap upgrade, new choices, gameplay improvements or real surprise elements, there is little reason for players of the 2015 game to return.- Gamer.nl

The ending of Life is Strange 2 has a slow start, but as soon as the episode starts, it is on until the intense conclusion. This time the political themes are not treated so subtly, but the game manages to close the story of the Diaz brothers in a surprising and meaningful way.- Gamer.nl

The Sly Trilogy feels surprisingly fresh, even though the games are from the PlayStation 2- era. For three games for less than the price of one, there's no excuse to let this collection of great games pass.- Gamer.nl

Leo's Fortune is a custom made platformer for iOS, that plays wonderfully and entertains from beginning to end. Once you get going you'll find borrowed gameplay with an original twist and incredibly high production values.- Gamer.nl

The Climb is the perfect example of excellent VR design. The controller and headset work together perfectly, so it really feels like you are rock climbing.- Gamer.nl

Klonoa: The Door to Phantomile is a polished version of a 2D-platformer that was released on the Playstation more than a decade ago. The gameplay is simple, well structured and offers just the right amount of challenge. Klonoa isn't one of the lengthiest games, but looks and plays great.- Gamer.nl

Bully is a very enjoyable game with the typical Rockstar atmosphere and humour. Too bad Bully is the most ugly guy in the classroom. We had problems with framerates and freezings, but accordering to Rockstar the game will be patched this week. Anyway, these minor things doesn't take away the fact that Bully: Scholarship Edition is the ultimate chance to get the Bully attitude out of us. Class dismissed!- Gamer.nl

Cataclysm is a fantastic expansion of the populair MMO and can be bought by all fans without further questions. But new players can also gain much from playing Cataclysm, as the game is much more balanced.- Gamer.nl

Far Cry 2 doesn't quite live up to its expectations, but its in total a great shooter with more freedom then you can chew. It scores extra points with the original setting and superb transition from real life to your tv. True, the leveld esign could have been more creative, the storyline with a little bit more depth and the thousand and one control points a little less annoying, because that's the reason why Far Cry doens't get that monster score.- Gamer.nl

Children of the Sun is a short ride, but entertaining from start to finish. The concept, action puzzles that you have to solve with one bullet, lasts for five hours and introduces just enough variety to avoid being repetitive. The simple story about a cult and the unique, bizarre style are the icing on the cake.- Gamer.nl

Windjammers 2 manages to score with a great combination of nostalgia, chaos and tactics. The fresh 90s frisbee action still holds up in modern times. Unfortunately, the amount of content leaves a lot to be desired and new players should have been welcomed better.- Gamer.nl

Dying Light 2: Stay Human makes freerunning more fun and creative. By providing more control, main and side quests are surprisingly engaging and deep. The characters come out well through excellent writing and voice work and the player is repeatedly brought into conflict by the many choices that really have an impact on the story. The beautiful Villedor is ideal for endless freerun fun, with or without friends.- Gamer.nl

Finally here is a game that can put you in a gamers trance again. Without thinking about it you can guide your character past obstacles and entire levels. It takes a perfectly balanced game to achieve this, and that's exactly what Bit.Trip Runner is. This is the purest platformer we've played in a very long time.- Gamer.nl

MadWorld lives up to its expectations. With ease. The graphics are great and the gameplay more than satisfying. The only thing that really holds the game back is its short duration. But, as long as it lasts it will be an excellent and brutal experience.- Gamer.nl

Midnight Carnival brings the series closer to adulthood. The difficulty has been raised quite a bit and the game offers much more of a challenge. The Boing!-move is also a very handy addition in the open levels. There’s not much new here, but it’s worth every penny for every fan of platformers.- Gamer.nl

A nicely polished version of the legendary role-playing game and remains close to the original. The graphics might turn younger gamers off, but it captures Baldur's Gate's magic and allows the new generation to experience it too.- Gamer.nl

Blur is one of the most addictive and fun racing games we’ve played in a long time. The intense action, great reward system and excellent balancing let you enjoy every race. Even the varying difficulty in the singleplayer can’t change that.- Gamer.nl

Voice of Cards: The Isle Dragon Roars is like a cozy D&D-session on a dreary Autumn evening. The all-knowing and ever talking narrator takes you on an engaging adventure that unfolds according to the luck of the draw. Your own fantasy, and the immaculate writing from Nier-creator Yoko Taro take care of the rest.- Gamer.nl

Thanks to a new engine and the new mode The Journey FIFA 17 feels brand new. We are glad that the game is still authentic, though it does not really shine. The gameplay can feel a bit slow and it is often frustrating. FIFA 17 is a solid game, but it sure has some rough edges.- Gamer.nl

This may not carry the Tomb Raider-name, but it has everything you can ask from a woman like Lara. And if that's still not enough, the highly intuitive co-op offers a semi-naked spear throwing friend to keep you company. In fact, this is better than Tomb Raider has been for a long time.- Gamer.nl

When you say ArmA 2, you say top-notch realistic gameplay. Take the large amount of bugs for granted and you will be rewarded with a game that comes close to reality with its scale and possibilities. This game separates the boys from the men.- Gamer.nl

The PlayStation 3 version of Eternal SOnata is in fact a delayed Xbox 360 version. But, because of the more clarified story, the four month waiting period only made the game better. Besides that, the game offers extra features, making the PS3 version slightly better that the Xbox 360 version.- Gamer.nl

PES is slowly creeping back up and it might have a chance to fight back FIFA if it keeps up this way. The return of some serious simulation ensures this is one of the better editions of the past years.- Gamer.nl
