When a succesfull game is ported to a different platform it doesn't necessarily means that it's going to work. Especially with a game like the Buzz! series. Ment to be a party game, there is not mucht left to party on a PSP when you're all by yourself. And handing over your PSP in the multiplayer modus isn't going to fix that. This Buzz is going out with a sizzle.

Chinatown Detective Agency embraces its tough puzzles and encourages you to figure out the answers yourself through search engines. This is a unique approach that also presents unique problems.

Vandal Hearts: Flames of Judgment offers exactly what you expect from it: a strategic role-playing game that is slightly flawed because of the archaic game design, but that still offers a decent gaming experience.

Thymesia has copied a little too much from 'big brother' Bloodborne. The game has more than enough due to the phenomenal combat system. In this respect it is perhaps better than its two biggest sources of inspiration and such an achievement cannot but be rewarded. Even if it involves unabashed stealing.

Snack World could have been a great gravel game for on the go but is stranded by the many confusing underlying systems and moderate writing. A pity, because the idea behind this game is perfect on the Switch.

Resident Evil 0 has aged a lot worse than Resident Evil 1. Zapping between characters is too gimmicky and the character Rebecca is so badly written, it is almost as if the developers have never spoken to a woman before.

Even though this game does not offer challenging puzzles, A Golden Wake offers a unique look on a setting that has never been set before. The story and the historical characters make this with jazz infested point-and-click adventure pretty interesting anyway.

With a game like Samba de Amigo you expect some maracas, but instead you’re playing with your Wii-mote. Add somewhat disappointing graphics and you'll get a game that you only want to play if you have some friends over. Drunken friends that is.

It’s nice that some games test your intellectual capacity or submerge you in a deep narrative, but games like Serious Sam Double D XXL are the necessary counterbalance. A game that simply offers entertainment that requires zero intellect to enjoy. A nice snack.

Ninja Blade offers a mix between God of War and Ninja Gaiden and is, in more than one way, pretty action packed. Perhaps too action packed. In between the cut scenes and the end bosses there is little room for 'normal' gameplay, making it hard to really enjoy the game for the hack and slash fans. Ninjas with an appetite for destruction and giant monsters will be more than satisfied while playing Ninja Blade.

Boom Street is not a Mario Party rip-off. Instead of minigames you play a different version of Monopoly. With that surprise out of the way, this boardgame with Nintendo's mascots is a fun experience for the whole family.

Jett: The Far Shore depends on the illogical design choices. Unfortunately, that sucks all the fun out of an otherwise unique space adventure.

A breakdancing rhythm game without any gimmick to make it stand out from the Guitar Heroes and Rock Bands of this generation. The strange thing is, the button presses you have to perform are not in line with the rhythm at all! A low difficulty, even lower satisfaction level. Do yourself a favor and let this one pass.

When Battlefield 2042 hits, it sparkles in explosive mayhem. The three different pillars of the multiplayer shooter each have their own potential, but are each plagued by feelings of 'just not' — or rather: 'not yet'. Be it the many technical defects or the sometimes ill-considered game elements: Battlefield 2042 leaves a lot to the service component to further polish things up.

Unfortunately Age of Empires II HD isn't a very impressive update. It disappoints graphically and not much has been done to improve or modernize it. The gameplay is still strong though, and Age of Empires II still shows how balanced and detailed strategy games can be. With the addition of the Steam Workshop there's enough potential here for the game to be given a new look. Too bad this is left up to the players though.

In Deadlight you play as an ordinary man instead of an indestructible hero, who just wants to survive in a rotten world. It's one of the graphically prettiest games on Xbox Live Arcade to date, but the gameplay unfortunately doesn't reach the same heights and the length of the game is disappointingly short.

Fair is fair, Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon is a game of below average quality. But because it doesn't pretend to be anything more than that, we'll let that slide. But even for a game in which simplism is the main attraction, it still does too many things wrong. That makes EDF: Insect Armageddon entertaining for an hour or two (possibly longer in coöp), but the lack of any variation makes you want to put it down rather sooner than later.

Pro Cycling Manager 2012 still stands lonely at the top when it comes to cycling simulations, but that isn't hard when there is just one franchise. It's been doing the exact same thing for years and doesn't ever deviate from this. And although the new additions do improve the player experience, we miss innovation.

G-Force is a solid movie tie-in that will please the 10- to 12-year-olds. The game doesn't do anything particularly well, but isn't doing anything wrong either. Don't expect a challenging game though, because of the repetitive elements and the helping hand that are offered it doesn't pack a punch. Of course, that’s to be expected in a children’s game.

For a Square Enix title Infinite Undiscovery is almost an embarrassment. The action sequences between chapters is to straightforward an it lacks RPG depth and drive. Fortunatly the game offers just enough to stay on its two feet.

Blueberry Garden is hardly any better than freeware games, because it misses originality and doesn't look like a finished product.

The swordfights and expansive customisation options are interesting, but the repetitive gameplay and superficial conversations and choices make Mount & Blade: With Fire and Sword only convince partially. The world does invite you to finish your journey from being a local hero to an international army-leader, but it doesn't turn out to be especially good or special.

Outlast 2 is sadistic and violent without being subtle about it. Fear is not beneath the skin; it just hits you in the head like a hammer. It's not perfect, but it is great.

You might expect a collection of bad jokes about penises and that is what this is, with many fun minigames and a crazy story.

Schizoid is a nice game that excels in the cooperative mode. Unfortunately the game feels a bit unpolished in places. The A.I. has its problems and the audio-video combo sometimes fails to deliver. Nonetheless, this game is a nice addition to your arcade games collection.

Flock can be an interesting case for game design students. A game that, at first glance, looks like a potential classic, but turns out to be a little bit of a dud. What's the cause and can it be fixed with some minor adjustments? The difference between a success and a failure was never this small.

Mafia 3 is a great storytelling about revenge, hatred and discrimination. The setting is convincing and the game offers a lot of fun, but the open world gameplay gets repetitive very quickly with only a few missions that are actually excellent.

Just Cause is a mess. It stutters, it crashed, the AI is broken and the new system of frontlines is taking away important things we love about Just Cause. They shouldn't have gone with missions, but instead with more freedom.
