    Rogue Legacy is a brilliant little game the offers a very cool experience. The tight 2D gameplay is perfectly combined with roguelike-elements, and this makes for a challenging game that, unbeknownst to its player, makes entire chunks of days disappear. That it looks great and has great humor only makes this already delicious pie taste better. The sometimes unnecessarily expensive upgrades do halt the pacing here and there, but this challenge makes Rogue Legacy a tough game that will surely be fun for hours upon hours.

    Mighty Switch Force 2 really is the perfect sequel. The success-formula hasn't been rigorously edited, but feels fresh and new thanks to some great complimentary additions. It's also less frustrating and balanced better than its predecessor, and still remains challenging.

    Leisure Suit Larry: Reloaded does well what it has done over all these years and is filled to the brim with humor. Despite the new lick of paint, the outdated gameplay elements and the puzzle design kept Larry trapped in the eighties.

    400 Days is a good standalone episode which introduces new characters in a short amount of time and creates situations which have you make very tough decisions, again and again. None of the stories even comes close to that of Lee and Clementine, but it definitely is a strong and unique episode.

    Aviation Empire is a game that will entertain you for many hours, feed you new challenges constantly and doesn't force you to pay extra later on.

    This specific Vita-version of the Jak and Daxter Trilogy doesn't do the series enough honor. Framerate issues and awkward controls undo a lot of the magic. Whoever manages to look past these issues will have an expansive and varied trip through the colorful Misty Island, the somber Haven City and tough Spargus awaiting them.

    Don’t be mislead by its appearance: Hotline Miami is not Kill Frenzy: The Game. Before going on a murderous rampage, you must inspect your surroundings and plan out your attack. Having multiple enemies in one room require a lot of patience and skill, which is why the game will take you longer to finish than you might’ve thought. If you have a choice, play it on a Vita. The touch screen enhances the controls just enough to where it is deemed more easily playable.

    The time you’ll put into finishing the sixteen mini-games, will be a somewhat precarious experience. Sometimes you’ll have a lot of fun with the intelligent concepts, other times you’ll have to wade through the muck and will get annoyed by the simplistic and monotonous mini-games. You will push through it though, because the unlockables give this collection of mini-games just a little bit more to play for, than you might’ve expected in the first place.

    The newest in the Mario & Luigi series is once again an especially fun RPG. It's filled with dry humor and the standard gameplay is originally supplemented with a 2D world that can be influenced by messing with Luigi's face. A great addition to the franchise.

    We were hoping for some improvements, but alas. Pro Cycling Manager know many frustrations. There are a few improvements made to managing, but these are too slim to redeem the game. Next year real steps will have to be made to save this franchise, and a patch to fix all of the crashes wouldn't hurt.

    New Super Luigi U is a big expansion. You get 82 redesigned levels and extra challenging gameplay for twenty Euros. Controlling Luigi takes some getting used to though. But when you hit that ideal line through the levels it does deliver on satisfaction. You do finish these levels much faster than in New Super Mario Bros. U due time limits, so don't expect it to entertain you as long as the original.

    After seven years of waiting Company of Heroes 2 doesn't disappoint. The great gameplay like we know it from he series, doesn't give way and only gets more intense thanks to the wintery weather and TrueSight. It's a shame though that the story lacks impact and the AI has a few hiccups. Still, Company of Heroes 2 is a fantastic game that guarantees more than enough strategic pleasure.

    Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon's Keep is a slightly eccentric combination of a bunch of elements that usually can't be mixed. Tina's fantastical reimagining of the main story from a multi-functional role: it's an ode and parody to all sorts of geeky things, gives more insight into the characters of Borderlands 2 and critiques average game design. Humor and tragic are being mixed in the same way as the main story, and there's enough to keep you entertained for a while.

    The missing maps and lesser graphics don't affect the core of XCOM. It can easily keep you occupied for twenty hours or more on the iPad, even if you've played the game on other platforms before. A great game gone mobile.

    By the time you're viewing the credits, you'll have had a great ride that doesn't compare to other games. Of course, the action is as standard as can be and often done better, but the sense of humor is so perfect, that you'll actually suspect Deadpool himself to have developed the game.

    The game puts the bar high for the Animal Crossing series, by offering an extremely long game without too much steady routines or repetition. In between everything you can do, you'll get surprised with special visitors, events and season based festivals. It's impressive if you can't see the fun in playing New Leaf after a week.

    A bundle of two cool beat 'm ups that are still worth playing. Although the second part is the classic that you can keep playing over and over again, the first is more of a fun addition to the package. The online and offline co-op work perfectly, and the new vault point system with which you can buy game-additions is a nice bonus. If you want to play one of the best beat 'm ups ever, you should play Chronicles of Mystara.

    CastleStorm steals elements from a bunch of games and turns it into a fun whole. The charming style and many options to attack of defend with your castle make this a fun trip to the middle-ages.

    Remember Me is a great start for the young developer Dontnod Studios. The fact that this developer dares to take the risk to produce a new IP with a tough heroin as the main character, makes this game worth mentioning. It also plays well, has an interesting, philosophic story and has a cool world to be in. As a game, Remember Me isn’t perfect though. But for those who enjoy good science fiction stories in which dystopian societies are ruled over by powerful corporations, it shouldn’t be missed.

    The Last of Us offers a bitter and horrifying look at humanity after a ‘zombie apocalypse’. It's an emotional journey that’ll touch you, without a doubt. But it doesn’t only have a strong story: the constant tension, great gameplay scenario’s and atmosphere make for a brilliant combination of elements that I can easily recommend to any gamer.

    Haunted Hollow is a very decent strategic game with a healthy free-to-play model. You literally don't have to spend a dime to keep it fun, which gives the game all the time and space it needs to prove itself. And when you find yourself ready to sink a few Euros into it, it'll have a diverse line-up of monsters at the ready.

    It isn't the great port that it should have been, but the entertaining single player and the at least as much fun Raid-mode do make up for this partly. The budget and scale of the game is quite obviously smaller, but it gives you an old-fashioned exciting Resident Evil-game in return that plays it safe, which actually makes it quite refreshing.

    Grid 2 is a fantastic racing game in which you'll have to fight for a decent classification. There's no 'perfect line'-crap, but purely the battle. Because of this, a victory really feels like a victory. There's enough variation to keep you going, but the career mode seems a bit bleak. Because of that, it barely misses out on a 9 or higher.

    Because of its accessibility on the one end, depth on the other and loads of fans, Persona 4: Arena is blessed with a long life. It might drop the ball on storytelling here and there, but that doesn't take away from the fact that we're dealing with a great and beautiful fighting game here.

    Ten Euros for one hour of gameplay is simply too much when most of the content is rehashed from the original. The story is ridiculous and actually hurts Sam as a character. And because you can't use him in the main game, or upgrade him, there's not much fun to be had with him - aside from the optional VR-missions. Only the most dedicated fans could consider giving this a go. Everyone else: ignore this.

    On the one side it's a fast-paced, pretty, turn-based Pokémon game filled with random dungeons that provide many hours of entertainment. On the other side though, is has a dull story, stacked with uninteresting conventions that can't be skipped. Because of this, Gates of Infinity is a less serious, and even somewhat childish successor to its predecessors.

    Frozen Synapse has great gameplay thanks to a wealth of options that make for deep, turn-based combat. The fights are addicting, but it isn't visually amazing, despite the charm of the neon colors. The amazing soundtrack, great controls and excellent multiplayer make this an awesome game on iOS devices.

    Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D succeeds in being better than the original by smartly using the hardware capabilities of the Nintendo 3DS. The 3D-effect and adaptation of the controls will be very refreshing to those who played the Wii-version. The biggest improvement comes in the form of a new setting developed for the 3DS, which converts the console-experience fantastically to a handheld format.

    Metro: Last Light manages to give shape to the world described in the books bearing the same name beautifully. The claustrophobic and grim atmosphere really come into their own thanks to the great graphics. Unfortunately the immersion is often broken by static npc's, a lack of interactivity and the idiotic artificial intelligence doesn't offer much of a challenge.

    Star Command couldn't live up to the expectations it set for itself. The great visual style and sharply written dialogue form the shell of a failed Kickstarter-project. Star Command lacks diversity, the entertaining space battles quickly become repetitive, the artificial intelligence is bad, it isn't well balanced and succumbs to a wealth of bugs.
