Now Crytek has jumped onto the remaster train and is stepping into the trap it has built for itself: To release a new edition of a 13-year-old game in 2020, which again needs a really expensive PC for full graphics power, is a crazy idea.- GameStar

Improved textures and revised balancing complement this terrific action-RPG classic, which, however, features too many generic side quests.- GameStar

Nostalgia can be deceiving, especially when it comes to a 20 year old game. It is all the more astonishing how precisely Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 revives the feeling of yesteryear.- GameStar

Marvel's Avengers could have been a much better game if Crystal Dynamics had relied more on its own strengths instead of emulating mainstream trends.- GameStar

At its core, it's still the same game as Crusader Kings 2, for better and for worse. It's still highly complex and tells great stories. And despite the context system, it can still be incomprehensible and frustrating. It's a bit like the Holy Grail. It gives you eternal youth, but it does not make you another person.- GameStar

A clever mix between management, strategy, action and exploration. It’s not only very relaxing, but also has some heartwarming moments.- GameStar

A successful heir to Dark Souls who improves the original concept, but knows its own limitations.- GameStar

The loading times and the occasional stuttering took off visibly on my nerves after 40 to 50 hours. That, together with the still not perfect enemy AI, may be criticism at a high level, but ultimately prevents Wasteland 3 from becoming a great role-playing game - you have to be satisfied with a very good one.- GameStar

Graphically impressive flight sim, based on global map data. Great for hobby pilots who fly on sight, but with problems when it comes to big airliners and autopilot.- GameStar

What happens when you invest the entire budget for a game in top-class actors and then have nothing left for the rest?- GameStar

Colorful and chaotic Battle Royale fun, though currently lacking variety, content and long term motivation.- GameStar

At first, this looks like just another Counterstrike clone. But there’s more depth and variety, despite the lack of content.- GameStar

Horizon still has its weaknesses and sometimes feels overloaded with all of the open-world activities, crafting systems or an annoying fast travel system. If I ignore all of this, I have a world open to me that shines above all because it really has something to say - be it within its history or even how we deal with each other and our planet in reality. That is exactly what I miss in many open world games, in which the story likes to degenerate into a breadcrumb trail for all kinds of filling tasks.- GameStar

Solid and true to the original, but even mordernized graphics can’t save the mediocre gameplay of the original.- GameStar

Kojima's prestigious project boasts a great technological framework, but still suffers from a lack of action and it’s one dimensional story.- GameStar

F1 2020 expands the exisiting framework with a new, interesting game mode, which makes it Codemasters‘ best F1 game, yet.- GameStar

The underlying principle is indestructible, but compared to its predecessors, the F2P restart disappoints with a lack of content and improvements.- GameStar

esperados 3 is simply staged staggeringly: The Western atmosphere is tight for editing, I can experiment tactically with the five characters, sneak through almost completely or occasionally incite shootings. My heroes comment on the action, and with a few exceptions, the behavior of the opponents is logical and understandable. I even fail because I always know what was wrong and can optimize accordingly. This is what modern real-time tactics must look like. Be sure to play it.- GameStar

An intelligent shooter with smart RTS elements, especially for solo players. Although the innovative scenario would have deserved a better story.- GameStar

Bright Harvest provides an interesting challenge for Anno 1800, but that is not enough, even for a DLC.- GameStar

Whether you enjoy it depends on your expectations. Maneater is trash. It makes no secret of it. The game is not pretty, it is not very varied or complex. But at least you're a shark. And eats people. And alligators. And other sharks. And everything at all. So the game does exactly what it says in the description. If that appeals to you, go ahead! Otherwise you can safely ignore the part.- GameStar

By today's standards the shootings are too static for my taste. In combination with the annoying graphics bugs, it is difficult for me to make an unreserved recommendation. If you just want to experience an adult story again that takes itself and its character seriously, then don't hesitate. But if you also hope for a dynamic gaming experience, there are certainly better alternatives by now.- GameStar
