When a game has a perfect level design, an almost perfect character design and a fantastic narrative with an amazing atmosphere it results in one of the most fascinating games I've played in recent years. And that game is called Inside.

Star Ocean: Integrity and Faithlessness isn't a bad game, it's just another Japanese rpg among many others. We've seen this done before, and a lot better.

Tokyo Mirrage Sessions #FE is one of the biggest surprises for me this year. If you want a fun game that doesn't take itself too seriously and have a Wii U, do not miss this.

The Technomancer might have been the beginning of a new and fresh role playing-series in the hands of a more experienced developer, like Bioware. It's a game worth playing for its story and setting, but the game's full potential is never realized.

I had forgotten how fantastic it can feel to play a good Mega Man game. Mighty No. 9, with its wonderful boss fights and amazing combo system, is a good Mega Man game.

Sherlock Holmes: The Devil’s Daughter is an amazing experience, that takes this series further than on the last generation of consoles. The game presents interesting cases with lots of variation, both in atmosphere and game design.

Steamworld Heist kept me engaged during the 17 hours it took for me to finish the game. It has pretty deep game mechanics and a very entertaining design. I look forward to more games in this universe.

Kirby: Planet Robobot might actually be the best game this Nintendo character has ever starred in. The level design is excellent and there are many secrets to discover.

When Mirror's Edge released back in 2008, it felt like a polished technology demo. Mirror's Edge Catalyst promised to be much more than that, but it doesn't live up to all of those promises. There's still a good game here and something for everyone who fell in love with the original.

Hearts of Iron IV is an ambitious grand strategy game. The different components work well, but nothing in the game really stands out as impressive or entertaining.

Overwatch is the perfect game to spend an hour with and to play a couple of matches before you do something else. And then you'll come back to it, again and again.

Dying Light is a better game, but it was Dead Island that started it all. If you want to take a vacation on a tropical Island during a zombie invasion, this is the game for you.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan is repetitive, has a boring level design, and is not a game I can recommend to anyone.

Shadwen has a lot of good ideas that never really delivers on their promises and the game ends up feeling like a half-finished product.

Fire Emblem Fates: Conquest is a great strategy RPG, with an interesting and engaging combat design that challenges and rewards the players.

Shadow of the Beast is a respectful re-imagining of the Amiga classic from 1989. The combat in the game is fun, it has a nice presentation throughout and an interesting narrative design.

Party Hard is a unique experience. The game blends humour and ultraviolence with stealth and a high difficulty level. Party Hard might actually be too hard for its own good.

Homefront: The Revolution has some good ideas and it has its moments that engage the player. But there are also too many technical issues and bugs for me to recommend it until they've patched the game.

Valkyria Chronicles Remastered looks beautiful in 1080p and 60 frames per second. The engaging and deep combat system keeps the game interesting, even 8 years after its initial release.

Offworld Trading Company feels like a crossover between Anno 2205 and Civilization V. This is a very competent strategy game for fans of the genre.

Dead Effect 2 might have been acceptable on mobile phones, but it doesn't work here. Every aspect of Dead Effect 2 is worse than other games in the same genre on Steam.

Battleborn offers a seven hour long campaign that feels pretty weak, but the multiplayer is fun and there's lots of loot. Like many other games in this genre, Battleborn works best when you're playing together with friends.

The Park is a short experience. The game lasts an hour or two and the purpose of the journey is predictable. I enjoy short and well-told experiences, but my walk through this park isn't as memorable as I had hoped.

Stellaris is a competent strategy game that lets you explore the universe and take over different worlds while taking care of your own race. It is not without problems, but the game will captivate you for hours and hours on end.

Alienation is a entertaining experience, with lots of action, beautiful effects and lots of polish. But Housemarque should have included couch co-op at the launch of the game.

Uncharted 4: A Thief's End is the most spectacular game you will play this year, the best looking game ever and a worthy end to the adventures of Nathan Drake.

There's a good idea here, but the game falls short of delivering on its promise. It quickly becomes too repetitive and slow.

Playing The Banner Saga 2 gives me the same feeling as when I'm reading a really good fantasy book. It makes me believe in the world and the characters that live there. The Banner Saga 2 does everything the first game did, but better.
