    Hopefully the game grows as well as Civilization 5 with future patches and add-ons for the game that satisfy my inner Jean-Luc Picard.

    Well-done remake of a classic for old-school fans with a few problems regarding controls and animations.

    Under the catastrophic porting shell is a great role-playing game core.

    F1 2014 is old wine in new bottles.

    I have a lot of fun with the puzzles, most are wonderfully tricky, but still logical.

    Buy recommendations rarely fall so easily like this: If you want just more Borderlands, buy the Pre-Sequel.

    The Evil Within has achieved something that not many games have lately: It scared me. Thanks for Mikami-san!

    The action fan in me is entertained sumptuously by the brutal battles and the beefy revenge story.

    This sports game is full of subtleties and nuances.

    It's a standard update with better graphics ad an academy for newcomers but few improvements.

    At its core lies a solid slow game that knows how to shine, especially with its multi-story levels, the multi-paths and Styx 'Goblin arsenal.

    Simply lacks power and depth.

    Neverending Nightmares could be an interesting horror-adventure, but fails on the most important element: the horror.

    At its core, this is a fantastic port oft he Alien franchise into gaming. However, the almost too-strong Alien can be frustrating at times.

    The story is pleasantly complex.

    I'd be lying if I said that I did not have fun with Shadow of Mordor, because it kept me entertained for 30 hours. Not on a superior level, but on a good, technically flawless one, whose objective quality one must be soberly recognized. But it has never affected me emotionally in that time, never surprised me, never gave me the feeling that I'd just played something special, something unique, something remarkable.

    One of the bast adventures of the last few years with a great story and a lot of freedom.

    It's a sold simulation if you like the genre but with several bugs and unnecessary mini games.

    Defense Grid 2 is not a revolutionary sequel, it plays more like a subtly refined version of the first part. The successor to one of the best tower defense games is no revolution but still in the first class of the genre.

    Only in one aspect I would have expected more from Fifa 15, namely in the game modes.

    Except for the huge selection of characters, there's no real reason to pay full price if you already own the predecessor.

    It's still fun as long as you don't care about a single player campaign and up to date visuals.

    Wasteland 2 is like a granny. A bit shaky, and you have to understand that she comes from a different generation - but lovable and sometimes blessed with impressive age wisdom.

    The skill system still seems fresh, the battles run smoothly. And in the bizarre and brutal world of Fable I felt I was always at home. A worthy HD update to celebrate the 10 years anniversary, with a few technical problems.

    Planetary Annihilation is a game full of wasted opportunities.

    The idea with the Tamagotchi-space-dogs is already absolutely amazing.

    On its own it's an entertaining game, but compared to The Sims 3 it's a step back and a lesser game.

    Great first season with great characters and coherent story. More interactive story than game though.
