    Doom is not the best shooter ever made, but boy did we enjoy it. Many references to the original, plus a lot of chaotic battle on locations that are simply insane. Doom is Doom, but in a modern way, and we thank id Software for that.

    Total War: Warhammer is nearly perfect. The production value is sky high, you can immerse yourself in the world of Warhammer. The game is very well-balanced, even though magic is introduced and the Lords playing a big part in it. The game has a brilliant performance too.

    Dambuster Studios acts like it made a modern blockbuster: it offers an open world with side missions, dialogue filled with moral dilemmas and an intense crafting system. However, the game does not have a soul, it seems to be missing the ever so important finishing touches and it simply does not speak to us.

    The storytelling and the interactions are not perfect, but Fragments of Him does offer a unique exploration of love and loss, which makes it worth while.

    With its bizarre characters and their big range of skills, Battleborn has some very entertaining moments, especially when playing it with friends. Unfortunately the single-player missions are not very entertaining. Battleborn really is a game to play for the competitive multiplayer, but you will need to be okay with the repetitive and pretty standard hack and shooting action.

    The dialogue sometimes feels as a waste of brain cells, but other than that Fire Emblem Fates has something in store for any type of gamer.

    As many Milestone games MXGP2 is a pretty standard race game. The game does not look good, does not sound good, although it is pretty fun to use the dirt bikes.

    Revolution: Black Friday is a very excellent use of a modern medium like video games to share an exciting and important moment in Iran's history.

    Pro Gamer Manager could have been an interesting variety to Game Dev Story, but as your choices and hard work do not really make a difference, this is nothing more than a click game without progress or satisfaction.

    Severed is a modern take on the old-school drpg genre. If you own a PS Vita, you should definitely own Severed.

    This remake makes us relive the old days in an excellent new look. There are a lot of new gadgets, guns and gameplay elements to keep the adventure fresh. It is a bit odd how the main characters do not really seem to have a lot of chemistry though.

    A Thief's End is an appropriate ending to the Uncharted series. It combines everything that made the previous games so popular with a long, robust and personal adventure with lots of variation.

    In the RTS Automata Empire you rule an enemy of cuddly microbes. You only have limited influence on everything, which is kind of frustrating. It is cute, but way too passive and the repetitiveness makes things even more boring.

    Housemarque proves how good it is at twin-stick shooters. All puzzle pieces fall into place: shooting, walking around, enemies and challenging gameplay. The story based setup makes Alienation a bit clinical, which makes this game less epic than Resogun and Super Stardust.

    Star Fox Guard is a pretty standard tower defense game with a Star Fox theme, which does not make it a recommendation as a separate game. You'd rather buy the Star Fox Zero because the special edition comes with this concept too.

    Lieve Oma is a very personal story about the relationship between a child and his grandmother. The game is definitely not worthless, but it simply does not impress.

    Yo-Kai Watch does a good job at presenting the atmosphere of a small, Japanese city, which makes the less hardcore setup of this game less bad. Don't get us wrong, this game motivates you to catch 'em all, while enjoying a pretty cool adventure.

    If you are looking for something totally new, avoid this game. Star Fox Zero is mainly a classic Star Fox game, though it does comes with some fun surprises. The controls are not great and the choice in airplanes is slim, but still, this is a pretty cool action game for Wii U.

    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.

    Californium is an overdose of style hindered by a terrible gameplay concept.

    Deadbolt feels like a less thought-through combination of Hotline Miami and Gunpoint. The game can be frustrating and difficult, which is partly because the game just is not that well made. It is okay, but very short.

    This is a dark and ruthless horror game which does not offer you too many things to survive with. This small game is a challenge, and does some interesting things regarding visuals and puzzles too.

    Fallout 4: Automatron could have been a brilliant part of a bigger DLC package, but just like it is now is simply not worth your money. The changeable robots are cool, but the missions are way too short and not memorable at all.

    The third part of the Samorost series is the most memorable. The magical surrealistic world holds great detail and the amazing soundtrack makes the musical gameplay even better. The puzzles require a unique and creative way of thinking, which sometimes makes it hard to continue playing.

    Dark Souls 3 is the perfect ender for FromSoftware's praised trilogy. The game combines the best elements from the other games into one awesome package.

    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.

    Though first impressions of Adr1ft are usually very positive, the game itself is a disappointment. The gameplay elements stay pretty much underused and though you could argue that it would not be too bad for a 'walking simulator', the story is not great either. [VR Tested]

    Underneath all the visual fireworks and impressive design Quantum Break is just a pretty good shooter with super powers. Some fights are great, but many enemies are plain dumb.

    Day of the Tentacle Remastered balances on the fine line between remake and remaster. It is a fine facelift for a phenomenal game though.

    Although driving around a fantasy town and reaching the stops in time is pretty relaxing, the same thing goes for a sleeping pill. The clumsy controls, lack of depth and extreme repetitiveness make Bus Simulator 16 a game that simply should not have been made.
