    Why use stealth if brute force works just as well? Good ideas, bad implementation and lots of wasted potential.

    If you like classic online RPGs, battles full of action and weird humor, you can't go wrong with this one.

    There's a lot of potential and the game's concepts are genius. But the game itself is too easy, too simple and that's a pity.

    Just like the first one, but with a different villain, more skills, more crafting and more mini games.

    Ubisoft's challange to GTA has succeeded and shows great potential. But the writers should have shown more courage to be different and remarkable.

    • 72 Critic Score
    It's extremely detailed - a bane for casual gamers, a bliss for expert gamers.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A real fresh setting that let's you forget that it's just a game character that's being hunted. A great achievement for a game so unsightly.

    Another case of "would have been much better with more fine tuning". The botched controls and some bugs are annoying.

    Tropico 5 isn't just the best of the series, but simply one of the best games of its kind. The Settlers and Anno series should take note.
    • 69 Metascore

    It's just as thrilling as the Nintendo DS version. It may have only 150 different units, but offers lots of varied missions, motivating side missions and officers.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 74 Critic Score
    It doesn't really manage to combine brains and entertainment. That's a pity because it could be a great game.
    • 81 Metascore

    The best Wolfenstein so far. Interesting places, remarkable characters, drama, humor and a story that should make some Hollywood blockbusters feel ashamed.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    It's a great mix of a classic detective movie, science fiction and a post-nuclear world with lots of weird characters.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 66 Critic Score
    It doesn't offer a lot of content, but it's a nice alternative to Left 4 Dead. Contagion won't start a new zombie hype, though.

    Age of Mythology is a good game. Even today. The mission design is still exciting, the balance between the people and the units is true, and thanks to the numerous combinations of gods and nations, there is always something new to try.

    Despite its problems ESO is a game that's fun for more than 100 hours and if Zenimax listens to the players, it can even become a great game.

    If you are looking for a heart-warming and funny game between all those shooters and dark action games, this is the one for you.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 71 Critic Score
    It's one of those games that is just ok. It's fun, but not thrilling or clever.

    Not so amazing after all. Technically, it a catastrophe. It you really love Spidey, you may like it to some degree.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 52 Critic Score
    Should have stayed in the dark. Only the scary moments, which are often achieved by cheap tricks, save this game from getting a slating review.

    It's a magical 2D RPG you just have to love. The art style and the fitting characters create a visual highlight.

    Probably the best Wargame title yet, but with weaknesses regarding innovation and balance.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    It has quite rough edges, but also some nostalgic charm. If only the developers had a bigger budget to sort out the technical flaws and improve the level design!

    Hearthstone wants to be a fast paced and entertaining card game for beginners and experts alike - and it achieves this goal with flying colors.
