While being sub-par overall, We Happy Few is still a nice save when you think that Compulsion changed its game from a survival title to narrative-driven adventure in just two years. If you had big expectations, don't bother. If you like the artistic side of things and the concept, give it a shot.

Mega Man X Legacy 1 & 2 is a good bundle for newcomers to the IP thanks to its beginner mode, even if the first collection has a better finish than the second one. Mega Man is still a classic that every gamer must have in his or her library.

The Crew 2 still falls short of expectations in spite of the improvements made over the first iteration of the game. The open-world feels empty, the multiplayer features are useless as there is no PvP and the rest of the game feels way too generic to stand out from its competition. Forza Horizon is still a safer bet.

Donkey Kong Adventure is a very good add-on to the original Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle which provides plenty of fun. The XCOM-lite formula works well and you'll need a good 10h of play to get thru this DLC. A very decent offer indeed.

Not perfect yet, but far better than it's Wii U counterpart, Mario Tennis Aces is a worthy addition to the IP, with an enjoyable Adventure mode and the introduction of the energy system which enriches the gameplay. With solo, local and online multiplayer, this game is guaranteed to provide plenty of hours of entertainment.

Unravel Two improves its concept with co-op play and a very good level-design but suffers from a lack of consistency especially in the challenge it offers and its visuals. A worthy game nonetheless.

With Jurassic World Evolution, Frontier delivers a solid game with very good gameplay mechanics which even gives us goosebumps when we follow the footsteps of a new dinosaur. The movie lore is there and the graphics are good. You should definitely give this one a try.

Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection is a very good throwback to the early 90's when Street Fighter II was taking the world by storm. This version doesn't really improve the recipe, but this title remains a cornerstone for videogames.

Onrush is a true mix of all the arcade racing offer with well-crafted game modes and a fast paced rhythm. Codemaster's games is far from perfect with an overflow of visual effects that makes it hard to see while most of the races are truly repetitive. Overall, the game clearly isn't worth the 70€ asked for it.

With Vampyr, Dontnod gives us a true RPG with an complex story, especially for people who take care of the citizens. The combat system is very good, but the crappy AI, a few bugs and a lack of freedom have to be taken into consideration.

Milanoir is a very good indie game which is far from a masterpiece but vastly worthy of the 10€ asked for its 6h adventure, especially if you like the Italian thriller movies from the 70's. Now we're awaiting for the next game from Italo Games.

Sadly, if BigBen Interactive has sold us Tennis World Tour as "The new game from the creators of Top Spin", it couldn't be further from the truth. Clearly rushed to be released during the french open, the game suffers from broken gameplay, vastly outdated graphics and minimalist content.

Agony is a true journey through hell from the narrative standpoint as from the gamer's standpoint. If the hellish vibe is very good, the game is a mess in almost every other respect, from its limited gameplay to its truckload of bugs.

One Piece Grand Cruise is short, boring and without any replay value. Only the most die-hard fans of the series will enjoy to discover the Sunny in VR. Don't bother unless you truly live for Eiichiro Oda's work.

Moonlighter is an incredibly enjoyable jaunt through some interesting ideas and some fun fights. While the combat gets a little easy as you progress, the fun of watching money pour in as you play is immensely satisfying. It would be nice if there was more reason to play after completion as is normally the case with roguelites, but equally having an actual conclusion is a breath of fresh air for the genre. It is a lot of fun and one that will keep you entertained for a fair while if you want to sink your time into it.

Detroit: Become Human is by far the most branching game ever made. Every decision that you make has its consequences, even when you just open a window. More emotional than the other games created by Quantic Dream, stunning from a technical point of view, it will mark the history of narrative games.

In spite of some good ideas like the Thrall system, and the overall freedom given to the player, Conan Exiles is far too tedious to appeal to new players. Unless you're having fun since the beta, wait a bit more time for patches and a price drop.

Based on a high-advanced concept of survival and management, the game unfortunately suffers from rudimentary mechanisms and many blunders. SoD 2 is clearly preferred in multiplayer for more fun.

If you were hoping to find the heir of Top Spin 4, run away. AO International Tennis is a mess in spite of the 17 updates is has had since the start of the Early Access. With wacky gameplay, sub-android level graphics and very light content.

Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze is as good on the Switch as it was on the Wii U four years ago, with a very easy difficulty setting added. If you have yet to discover the game, go for it; otherwise, don't bother.

Frostpunk is one of the best city-builders out there with rich gameplay mechanics and awesome graphics. We would have loved a sandbox mode, but that's about the only drawback we can find in this awesome game.

Halfway between Zelda and a Rogue-like, The Swords of Ditto has its own touch thanks to its great arty touch, its universe, its humor and a few interesting gameplay mechanics. On the other side, the technical side of things isn't very impressive, but patches could improve these issues.

Don't let Masters of Anima's looks deceive you as it is a true strategy games which offers a strong challenge that will test players to their limits. The gameplay is very good and the only drawback are some difficulty spikes that go from a true challenge to outright frustrating.

Having no interest whatsoever for a seasoned gamer due to an absolute lack of challenge, Detective Pikachu is a rather pleasing game for kids that are taking their first steps into the world of videogames.

With its minimalist aesthetics, Minit is much deeper than its looks may make you think. Challenging and offering true freedom to the player, this game additionally offers plenty of replay-value.

If the base concept of Extinction is quite trendy at the moment (climbing on giants and slicing everything), the game fails in most respects with a highly repetitive gameplay, an empty story and no really memorable game mode.

God of War has amazed us from the narrative standpoint as well as with its incredible graphics. The new adventures of Kratos redefines the beat’em all genre, and makes the game the best exclusive on the PS4 since its inception.

If the feeling of being an ape is well-delivered in Crisis on the Planet of the Apes, the game suffers from many technical issues like tracking problems and motion sickness - inducing framerate. The level design is simplistic and the few intense moments won't be enough to turn the game into a good memory.

Assassin's Creed Rogue Remastered offers nothing really outlandish besides slightly updated graphics, and 4K for PS4 Pro and Xbox One X owners. As always, if you haven't played it go for that version, otherwise, don't bother.

Sea of Thieves offers a very good sandbox that's incredibly empty. Much like No Man's Sky in its days, the game has lots of potential but nothing concrete to keep the gamer playing.

In spite of many bugs, Pure Farming 2018 is a worthy alternative to Farming Simulator, but the franchise from Focus Home Interactive ultimately remains the best.

For its first outing on the Nintendo Switch, Kirby offers the minimum with a very weak challenge as a seasoned gamer can beat it in one afternoon. One of the least memorable experiences we had on the Switch so far.

A Way out is a very good coop game that still suffers from some issues mainly due to the youth of the studio. The game is still one of the most rewarding coop experiences we've had this year.

As fun, solid and diversified as a Far Cry can be, but not as exotic or surprising as the other episodes of the saga, Far Cry 5 enhances the standard Ubisoft recipe but does not really create a revolutionary experience for the players. A great game, but not a turning point for the franchise.

Bravo Team is sadly a dud that offers a mediocre experience for the PlayStation VR, Way too short, and littered with problems, the idiotic gameplay makes everything very tedious, quickly shaving our enjoyment.

Burnout Paradise Remastered is still on of the most fun racing games on the market and the enjoyment of Takedowns and huge crash is intact. The only drawback is that this remaster is a bit lazy as the visuals haven't improved that much.

Isle of Man TT: Ride on the Edge is one of the best bike racing games available, vastly superior to any of Milestone's productions if you're in the market for a good sim. Official content and laser scanned Mountain Course are a bliss, and we only regret a small lack of content.

Surviving Mars is a very good city-builder game with a lot of upsides, but the early game is made unnecessarily hard by an absolute lack of tutorial, which forces the player to learn by trial and error.

Yakuza 6 The Song of Life is clearly one of the best works in the series offering a great finale for Kazuma and greatly improved visuals thanks to the Dragon Engine and one of the best casting of characters in the entire series.

Without being a revolution of the first game, Attack on Titan 2 is a nice evolution that packs enough new stuff to rejuvenate the game. On the downside, the gameplay is still quite repetitive, but that can be due to the game closely matching the manga.

In spite of a promising overhaul, Dynasty Warriors 9 fails in every aspect with it's soulless open worlds, its lousy gameplay and a truckload of technical problems from AI pathfinding to aliasing and atrocious clipping. Only give it a shot if you're amongst the most hardcore fans of the IP.

It's tough to provide a definitive review on a chapter-based game, but The Council is off to a good start with its gameplay based on social interactions and a very nice artistic touch. A good spin on the Telltale recipe.

Seven Deadly Sins: Knights of Britannia is clearly a fan-product with lots of content from the manga but very little appeal in terms of videogaming. The worst drawback is the repetitive aspect of the game with chains fights and boring side quests.

Gravel is undoubtedly better than we expected but it's still quite far from the best in the business like Forza Horizon. Nevertheless, the game should appeal to the die-hard fans of arcade racing in spite of it's shortcomings.

In spite of a reduced enemy pool which gives the incentive to kill the same foe over and over, and regardless of its short story, Moss is one of the best PlayStation VR games out there. The camera is used with skill and helps create a strong link between Quill and the player.

In spite of a good atmosphere and a worth story, Past Cure suffers from wacky gameplay and a short overall experience. Obviously Phantom 8 got too ambitious on this project.

Far from the original root of the series, Metal Gear Survive suffers from a very repetitive gameplay be it in solo or in multiplayer, and the not discreet at all micro-transctions don't help. At least the story is worthy and might hold your interest.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance has the potential to be one of the greatest RPGs of this year, but the sheer abundance of bugs make it almost unplayable. A perfect example of a game that would have benefited from an early access release.

Bayonetta 1 & 2 is a very good remaster that brings the witch into the modern age with 720p 60fps display, and above all portability. The only drawback is that the first game shows its age, especially when in portable mode, but the gameplay makes all those complaints irrelevant.

Fe offers a great journey in an enchanted world with a great artistic look and the total freedom to explore the surroundings. On the other hand, the gameplay mechanics quickly become boring and the absolute lack of any challenge may pose a problem to some gamers.

This remaster of Secret of Mana is proof that nobody should mess with a masterpiece unless the budget is more than enough. Emptied from its artistic soul, the game lacks any optimization to improve its gameplay and is thus difficult to recommend to anyone.

In spite of a few good ideas and an appealing atmosphere, The Red Strings Club falls a bit short to be warmingly recommended because it's quite repetitive and very short to beat (around 3h). Moreover, the dull story and the weak technical side of things makes it tough to be enthusiastic.

Candleman is obviously a nice little game with an undeniable poetic touch and nice gameplay mechanics that evolve as each chapter goes by. The game is quick to beat but for 15 euros it's tough to be picky.

Rise & Fall falls a bit short of our expectations as the new features lack some impact on the gameplay , while the diplomatic inconsistencies of the IA makes alliances hard to make. The new civs and new content still make it a content to own for the fans.

Crossing Souls offers a solid experience with a good mix of action and adventure where we enjoyed to lead the 5 kids through their journey. If you like pixel art and 80's vibes, don't miss this game.

Dissidia Final Fantasy NT offers a unique combat system that turns the 3vs3 battles into strategic encounters, but the visuals aren't that good specially with the bad camera. The game will be perfect for the fans of Final Fantasy, but the rest of the gamers will find it quite repetitive.

More technical than both previous games, EA Sports UFC 3 also has a less linear "Career Mode". Still gorgeous, still violent, it's currently the best MMA game of this generation.

Lost Sphear is a good J-RPG but it feels way too generic to stand out amongst the field of available competitors.

In 2005, Shadow of the Colossus was already known for being an incredible masterpiece, making Fumito Ueda one of the most talented game designers of his generation. 13 years later, the game returns to PS4 more majestic than ever, while Bluepoint has just redefined the term "remake". More than a masterpiece, it's a major and necessary work.

With Monster Hunter World, the franchise from Capcom reaches a new level. The fights are more dynamic than ever but the difficulty of hunting a monster is still present. The environments are amazing and contain plenty of little details that will maintain the interest of the players. A few improvements would turn Monster Hunter World into the perfect game, but Capcom gets its first major hit of 2018 with this one.

In spite of the let down imposed by the Story mode, Dragon Ball FighterZ is easily the best DBZ branded game on the market thanks to an immaculate respect to the original work of Akira Toriyama.

Beware of numerous things before buying The Inpatient, like the overkill price tag for a 2-hour experience and the overall weakness of the plot, be it technically or on the story side.

Gorogoa is a very good small game with very good puzzles and a lovely artistic sense highlighted by a sublime soundtrack. On the downside, we would have loved a little bit more playtime as the games offers little more than two hours of enjoyment.

On one hand Okami HD is still a brilliant game that any gamer must beat, but on the other hand it hasn't much evolved from the PS3 version that came out 5 years ago. Like with many remasters, go for it if you haven't played it, skip it if you already have.

L.A Noire: The VR Case Files is clearly one of the best VR games of the year, making the police work even more immersive. A true VR game, and not one of the VR experiences for sure.

Unlike Skyrim VR and Fallout 4 VR, that are VR ports of the original games, DOOM VFR is a 5h long story that uses new gameplay mechanics to adapt the much loved gameplay to VR with some success.

Dead Rising 4 Frank's Big Package is a perfect pick for any fan of the IP as it's filled with content, but in spite of the "Capcom Heroes" mode, the game still retains all of the original drawbacks like a lack of fun and repetitive fights.

Without being the game of the year, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 manages to offer enough good things to be a very decent JRPG game that is worth the attention of any Nintendo Switch owner, in spite of a few shortcomings like the awful clipping and framerate drops.

In spite of a few story weaknesses, Hidden Agenda is a very good interactive movie that makes a cleaver use of the PlayLink technology by allowing multiple players to join in. A perfect pick for an evening with non-gamer friends, but we would have loved a bit more interaction, while the app uses a lot of energy from your phone.

Since it arrived on 3DS, The Kirby IP is limited to subpar games and Kirby Battle Royale is no different with only 10 mini-games where Mario Party: The Top 100 will provide us with a hundred. We can't really understand Nintendo's strategy with it's pink mascot but we hope the Switch episode of Kirby will bring back the glory days.

Gear.Club Unlimited is just a bad port of an otherwise successful mobile racing game. Even if the content is generous, the game is expensive, the gameplay is a joke, the AI is crap and the graphics are ugly. Don't bother with this one if you really like cars and racing games.

Pokemon Ultra-Sun and Ultra-Moon are inherently good games since they're base on the ones that came out one year ago, but the new content is not enough to justify buying them. On the other hand, if you haven't bought last year's opus, they are the choice to make.

While Stifled is a good VR experience with some creative gameplay ideas, the game falls flat as the player quickly understands how everything works which ruins the thriller ambiance of the game. A game to consider if you're into VR and alternative gameplay, and to pass otherwise.

If you didn't already go thru the dark corners of L.A. Noire when it came out on PS3 and Xbox 360, now is the time to do it as the Motion Scan hasn't aged a bit even if the visuals aren't quite up to modern standards. A must play overall.

Super Lucky's Tale is a VRless version of Lucky's Tale released last year on Onculus Rift. With 4K display on Xbox One X, the game doesn't manage to do much, especially because of an awful camera which makes Lucky's handling very hazardous.

With the enhanced graphics from the Legendary Edition, Skyrim offers nice looks and a very decent content on the Nintendo Switch. The only drawback is having to pay full price for a six years old game which is cheap on any other platform.

Outcast: Second Contact is a very good remaster as the core of the game remains unchanged while it's looks have been completely overhauled to fit modern hardware and players. A very good way to bring the nostalgia vibe for the seasoned players, and to make younger players discover this adventure.

Star Wars Battlefront 2 is a good follow-up to the first game with enriched content, refined gameplay that works to perfection and awesome visuals. We would have loved a longer solo mode to be honest.

Need For Speed: Payback is far from the Burnout style crashes we were shown at E3, leaving the game with only a nice looking open world, and a truckload of flaws like the go-buy-lootcrates grinding system, an appalling storyline and heavily scripted races.

The Switch version of DOOM is actually a pleasant surprise with an unaltered gameplay that's still incredibly effective on a small form factor machine. On the other hand, the games boasts ugly graphics, suffers from low framerate at times and has a premium price tag compared to the other platforms.

Horizon: Zero Dawn - Frozen Wilds is a good DLC that shows that Guerrilla has mastered the making of an open world, even if the story is not as good as the main one. The infiltration system could use some work too but overall it's very decent content for fans of the IP.

Sonic Forces is clearly on of the biggest duds of the year. In spite of some good graphics, the gameplay is very poor and all the content seems to be recycled from old Sonic games. Today, Mario must be laughing out loud.

Just Dance 2018 is clearly a game to forget as it's merely a copy of the previous games in the series, but we can only notice the drop in quality that goes along whether it's the dull playlist or the uninspired dance moves. A textbook case of badly recycled content.

Call of Duty WWII is one of the best iterations of the franchise in a long time, thanks to an awesome campaign and a worthy multiplayer enriched by the new War Mode and the HQ social lobby. A must-buy for every COD fan.

Spintires: Mudrunner is a good simulation for fans of hardcore off-roading, but the appalling technical side of things ruins a lot of the appeal, while the redundant objectives are quite boring as time goes by.

Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus is a very good solo FPS (which is already a rarity in the current game market) with a good story and a great sense of humor peppered by intense gunfights.

AER memories of Old is a very good little poetic game which will hook you up with it's amazing graphical style and the ability to play as an eagle to improve the freedom feel of it all. Only the shortness of the adventure may stop you from buying this at full blown price.

We were expecting a tremendous Mario, but in the end, Super Mario Odyssey is not as glorious as it appears. If it has undeniable qualities with well-oiled gameplay mechanics, it also displays technical issues and inequalities in the worlds we visited. Plus, the costumes that we earn are only cosmetic bonuses and the adventure ends a little quickly. But don't panic, Super Mario Odyssey is still a good episode and we've had fun with it.

Assassin's Creed Origins is simply the best AC we've played since Assassin's Creed II with Ezio. Thanks to the 4K resolution, Egyptian landscapes are absolutely stunning. The Combat system has been revamped as well in addition with new stealth mechanics. A game you must buy.

Destiny 2 is clearly better on PC with improved visuals and a much sleeker gameplay when you aim with a mouse, the only drawback being that you need quite a tough PC if you really want to push the graphics to the max.

Gran Turismo Sport fails to make our heart beat with a lack of content, and not many real existing cars or tracks, which feels odd for "The real driving simulator". The Fair-Play system isn't yet working properly, but hopefully it will before the start of the eSport season. At least players can still enjoy a nice physics model and an enjoyable feel to the drive.

Sold like it's a revolution, WWE 2K18 is merely an evolution of the previous game that mainly shows the big ambitions of the devs and their small budget while the awful QTE system still harms the gameplay in a big way.

Fire Emblem Warriors is a hit for the fans of Musö games as well as fans of the Fire Emblem IP with a joy-inspiring combat system. The only let downs are a crappy AI and some very weird storylines. A good beat'em all on Switch overall.

Fourteen years after it's original release, Mario & Luigi : Superstar Saga is still a great game that we can enjoy thanks to the updated graphics, and the clever touch interface. A very good turn-based RPG overall.

South Park: The Fractured but Whole is a worthy successor to Obsidian Entertainment's game, with vastly improved combat and enriched gameplay. It lacks some of those very brave moments like the ones that were censored in the European console version of The Stick of Truth.

Layton's Mystery Journey: Katrielle and the Millionaire's Conspiracy is a good installment in the series even if we would have loved a more breathtaking main quest, but on the other hand the content is pretty impressive.

The Evil Within 2 is a very good game that proves that Tango GameWorks can make a great game even when Shinji Mikami isn't directing it, even though we would have loved a few more jump-scares and less rigid gameplay.
