    NBA is about passion, story and impact and the 2K-series shows that off like no other game. Any game of basketball is an amazing experience. Basketball fans already know this, but it's time the rest of the world starts playing.

    Nuka World is one of the most original locations in the whole Fallout franchise. Nuke World is big, unique and offers a few cool missions. Too bad Bethesda makes you the bad guy, cause the Raiders are very unpleasant and there is no alternative to it.

    Thankfully the games are pretty much the same as they were, but the details in this remaster are disappointing. The PC-version specifically has to deal with a lot of issues and technical disappointments, so we advise you to pick a console version.

    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.

    Though Blizzard seems to be very "inspired" by other MMO's while making Legion, it is still very much a Warcraft add-on with new class quests and legendary weapons to make this very old game feel extremely new again. World of Warcraft is fun and adventurous again.

    Even more than other Forza Horizon games, with this one you'll experience the awesome feeling of driving beautiful cars in a huge open world. There is more space for off-road racing, which is a nice feature on top of the strong concept of Forza Horizon.

    Master of Orion is the perfect game for anyone who has never played a 4X-game, but veterans will not enjoy it as it misses the depth of modern 4X-titels. However, for newbies there is a lot to learn, an amazing design and an awesome soundtrack.

    Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past is a fragment of the past in itself. The remaster can't hide that the game is simply old-fashioned.

    Though the commentary is a bit old-school, some important licenses are missing in action and the referee is an amateur, PES is an awesome soccer game. The AI and the many tactical options make the soccer feel very real.

    ReCore wants to be a perfect combination of action game and open world Metroidvania, but it is not able to offer the consistent adventure that we were looking for. There is simply no balance.

    Double Fine offers a unique game with a retro futuristic 70's style and strong gameplay. This Metroidvania does miss new features and the story could be better.

    Gone in November is a heartfelt and valuable window into the thoughts of a terminally ill and depressed person.

    Hearts of Iron 4 is a strategy game with a nice flow. The many aspects of war are realistically embedded in the game, thought the AI unfortunately fails very often.

    Grow Up hasn't really grown up yet, cause you get a full sand box to explore. It still fails to be a game that everybody will love, but if you enjoyed BUD's first adventure, you will definitely enjoy this one too.

    Cyber Sentinel is an ode to classic cyberpunk. In this game you are a hacker that needs to puzzle its way through the data of big, corrupt companies. The difficulty level is great, but the story, design and gameplay are a disappointment.

    Starbound offers way more than just a colorful and cute outside. Its inside is a deep platformer that makes you start a colony on a planet filled with alpaca's, or something like that. And it is awesome.

    F1 2016 is a race game that is truly worth your time. It is realistic without being extremely hard to master. A rock solid F1 experience.

    Tricky Towers is a lot better than other party games, especially with three others it is a curse fest (in a good way!). Playing alone is hardly any fun though.

    Pac-Man 256 is another smart twist of the classic. The game is very entertaining, and that is all thanks to Pac-Man being a timeless classic, but also because of the randomly generated mazes. Especially good for short sessions.

    Riptide GP: Renegade is fine, but it is a bit of a boring variety of Hydro Thunder. The water racer offers a cool single-player, but especially co-op is really awesome in Riptide GP: Renegade.

    Tactical, very multi-faceted, tight: the clinical style of Videoball could make you think this is some complex game, but it is actually a fantastic version of air hockey. Too bad the matchmaking does not work and there are limited users online for the game to actually take off.

    Abzû successfully copies the most important and much-loved features of Journey, but it misses that polish to make it just as memorable as Journey.

    Though Cyber Sleuth can get a bit grindy, the systems and the story that come with it are fascinating enough to keep you occupied for hours. This is the perfect grindgame for those long summer nights.

    Brut@l is one of this summer's most pleasant surprises. By taking inspiration from classics like Rogue and adding new gameplay mechanics, striking visuals and some very fluent gameplay, Brut@l becomes a great game in its own right.

    This game is shallow and very out-dated. The source material makes it so easy to make a solid fighting game, but yet Eyes of Heaven is quite the opposite. Don't buy this game, just go for the old JoJo on PlayStation.

    Necropolis is a pretty standard dungeon crawler, but it does give things an interesting twist. The fighting system is steady, while the surprising potions and curses allow the game to be a unique roguelike. Could have used more variety though.

    I am Setsuna is a beautiful ode to the JRPGs from the 90's, but it does not really do anything new. It's a nostalgia trip for JRPG players, but that means you will also have to deal with the classic annoyances in the genre.

    Lucky's Tale is not innovative at all, but it does show how much fun a platformer can be in VR. [Tested with Oculus Rift]

    This would be a great way to get rid of some daily aggressiveness: break as many expensive items you can using a golf ball. Unfortunately the controls are so frustrating and the game is so boring, it only got us more aggressive.

    Star Oean: Integrity & Faithlessness does not try anything new, but it builds on JRPG stereotypes that we have experienced too often. It's simply too cliche.
