It all feels like either very (bad) conscious design choices or pure laziness at work.

If it had been balanced for faster gameplay, with more traps, Party Hard would actually have been a fun action game. As it is now, though, the party never really gets going.

Overwatch leaves me longing for nothing. Nothing at all. The tight fusion of game modes and heroes is another sure hit for Blizzard. They don't follow any standard; rather, they're creating a new.

For the quiet gamer who would rather look out the window and observe the changing seasons with a cup of herbal tea at hand than to flush energy drinks down to another team deathmatch.

Total War: Warhammer could have been a parenthesis in the TW series, an experiment in a different genre, but has instead become one of the best Total War games ever.

Sadly lacking proper substance, it turns out to be an ordinary first person shooter, not managing to raise the bar significantly from the rest of the games with a war theme.

Captures the spirit of the original so well that you almost wish this team could remake the Duke Nukem license too.

Give Paradox a bit of time to streamline the design and spice up the game with more more content, and we will be fully satisfied.

Has all the qualities of a full price action game, but at a fraction of the price. Considering this creative shooter is a no-brainer.

The roster fits every conceivable style of play. A glorious and chaotic shooter where the most skilled players can challenge each other, while the less experienced will also have fun while taking part in it all.

Naughty Dog once again delivers the whole package. Even if the formula is almost 9 years old by now, Uncharted 4 is a superb end to a several-year journey in the best company you can imagine.

Caters to hardcore Zelda fans who want to pass the time while waiting for the next full breed Zelda-entry: The Legend of Zelda WiiU. It has moments of fun puzzle experiences, but it requires you to have 1-2 good friends you can go on a local network.

As was the case with Guacamelee, let's hope that Drinkbox decide to publish versions of this fine old school RPG for other platforms than the Vita as well.

Super Smash Bros. used to have zero competition as the king of fighting games on Nintendo. Pokken is a good contender, even though we would have liked to see more pokémons represented.

Filled with grotesque Warhammer 40,000 aesthetics and complex tactical space battles as expected. The steep learning curve and the absence of three of the game's four races of the campaign at launch, however, makes us hope that Tindalos Interactive will continue to expand the game in the near future.

Despite its minor shortcomings, I have not played through such a satisfying and complete experience in a long time. Dark Souls III not only is the best in the series, it is also the best action RPG to come out in recent years.

Expands and enhances the concept of its predecessor in every respect. A larger world, a deeper and more accessible combat system and the use of different points of view makes it one of the most engaging human fantasy strategy games ever.

Don't be fooled by the pastel colors and lo-res graphics: Hyper Light Drifter is a hardcore action-platformer RPG with links to both Dark Souls platform gaming of the 1990s and poses plenty of challenges for even the toughest fighting game veterans.

The Ratchet & Clank series has been through a turbulent period, but you do not need to spend a lot of time playing the reboot before realizing the magic is back.

DiRT Rally brings back the entertainment to the genre, giving us time to take pleasure in fine tuning and conquering each race, just like in Colin McRae. If this is the direction in which Codemasters will keep heading, we have high hopes for the next game in the series.

The robots are coming! Automatron is a wonderful addition to Fallout 4. It fits well into the universe, both thematically and story-wise. Too bad we can't erase our memory and start over from scratch.

While the story is fun and quirky to play through on your own, the real meat of the game itself is the multiplayer. The matches in Stikbold! are well oiled and over fast enough to just grab another. And another. And...

The gameplay is solid, but requires that you can forgive an unfair death every now and then. The game doesn't hold your hand either in terms of gameplay, story or general mechanics, instead rewarding courage and tenacity with a great gaming experience.

The latest release from TT Games shows signs of an aging formula for handling the LEGO franchise. Most of the blunders should have been caught in an early brainstorm.

An incredibly well written story that evokes more emotions than one could expect. A game worth experiencing if you are into the more soulful aspect of interactive storytelling.

If you're a fan of hardcore platformers, Klaus will likely never seem quite as harsh and unforgiving as Super Meat Boy. But it has a more interesting story to tell, in comparison.

Lara Croft's latest adventure represents some of the best platforming in 3D you can get. A paradoxical mix of brutal reality and crazy Indiana Jones action.

This makeover of the 2012 original is worth playing, even for current owners of this essential Vita release. In spite of the somewhat simple gameplay, manipulating gravity is quite liberating.
