    Hotshot Racing feels like a nice throwback to the arcade era, back when SEGA was dominating with the likes of Daytona USA. The game is clearly retro in its gameplay, and it's quite refreshing to be able to escape the current trend of hardcore sims.

    Making Age of Empires IV a modern RTS without betraying the franchise's origins hasn't been an easy task for Relic Entertainment. While some players may blame the lack of risk taking, it must be recognized that disrupting the original gameplay could also have been taken badly. We are therefore dealing with an "Age of" classic in substance, but renewed in form.

    Steep is a very good game for adrenaline junkies and pow addicts in every way. For gamers, the answer is less clear as a good gameplay and a vast open world don't compensate the lack of a clear goal to achieve.

    Old school but enjoyable, Evil West offers us a scenario of cowboys and vampires, a very naughty gameplay, and a general design inherited from the games of 2010. A formula that quickly finds its limits in certain aspects of the game, but its combos devastating will satisfy you.

    Bloodstained Ritual of the Night is a clear tip of the hat to Castelvania Symphony of the Night, and it manages to tick almost all the right boxes. The only drawback is the old-school gameplay which can be harsh on young gamers.

    Marvel's Avengers is a better game than we expected, but even if the outside is appealing, it's still very repetitive, and the microtransctions are a hard hit on the fans.

    Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm Revolution is a bad name for a game which brings really nothing revolutionary. CyberConnect2 title sharpens its fighting recipe to make the battles even more dynamic and forces the player to not use his advantages too early. NSUNSR also brings with it the biggest roster in the series history. Alas, four-warriors confrontations are a little bit confusing because of a disastrous locking system and the Story mode is a deep disappointment.

    Resistance Burning Skies is the first FPS on PS Vita to use the game controls of an handheld device successfully, despite not being as good as Uncharted Golden Abyss or WipEout 2048 in terms of quality. The IP would have been better if the developers proposed more innovations as regards the level design, but the principal elements of the Resistance franchise have not been forgotten, espcially its multiplayer mode. For its first entry on PS Vita, Resistance Burning Skies copes pretty well.

    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.

    Planed to act as a demonstration of Wii U's capabilities, Nintendo Land is actually more than that. Despite a great number of basic mini-games, this product features three fantastic concepts based on Mario, Luigi's Mansion and Animal Crossing's worlds. As fun as Mario Kart, these mini-games can justify the purchase of Nintendo Land alongside the Wii U.

    Life is Strange : Before the Storm Episode 1 is a good prequel to the original game that retains most of the strength. The only flaw is the bigmouth system that chloe can use to bend people to her will, and which seem overused.

    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.

    Shelock Holmes : The Devil's Daughter is a nice step to evolve the IP into something more substantial. Conservative enough to satisfy the fans, and new enough to draw in young players.

    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.

    Lara Croft and The Temple of Osiris does comply with all the promises made by Square Enix. It's a nice mix of puzzles, platforms, action and loot that still works even if the developers stayed away from risk-taking. Even if it's not The game you want for Christmas, you can still enjoy it, even more so if you're giving it a shot in co-op.

    SnowRunner is a nice improvement from MudRunner, with more ground variety, and the introduction of snow. It still is for a specific audience though.

    Apotheon is a nice adventure game offering uncommon visuals, meant to look like Greek ceramic. Even with its faults (strange physics, useless items, subtitles only in English), the game from Alien Trap brings a lot of fresh ideas and features.

    Shadow Warrior 3 is a nice mix between Duke Nukem, Serious Sam, DOOM Eternal or Bulletstorm, and that's a good thing! The production of Flying Wild Hog, like its hero, never takes itself seriously and makes a clear contract with the player: immediate fun, non-stop action, blood, sweat and laughter.

    Pokémon Let's Go! is truly a very good remake of the genuine Red & Blue versions with updated graphics and one of the best soundtracks in the IP. We weren't sold on the Pokémon GO capture system and found the endgame a bit empty.

    Making a crossover between The Escapists and The Walking Dead was a great idea and the result is tremendous fun, whether you're a fan of the comic or not. Beware though, as the genuine flaws from the Escapists are carried over in this game like the repetitiveness of the gameplay.

    While some players will probably enjoy Firewatch, others will find it very boring. Campo Santo's production will divide the audience, that's for sure. But we have to admit the game is below our expectations. With slightly stronger writing and some real choices with important consequences, Firewatch would have been something exceptional.

    This new Mario Party is more of a best of compilation than a new iteration. The players will split into two groups : those who will have a feeling of déjà-vu, and those who will appreciate the nostalgic effect. On the other hand, there is no doubt that for newbies, Mario Party Superstars is really a great first experience with the Mario Party formula.

    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.

    Like its ancestor, Wargame: Red Dragon looks more like a DLC disguised as a stand-alone, than a real new game. If the fans like that opus, the majority of gamers will find no interest in this IP which is getting even harder to jump in. That being said, the Asian context of the solo campaign, and the arrival of sea units which enrich the gameplay are welcome additions. Like before, it's by going multiplayer that we'll see the effect of those units since the AI is still a bit of a mold. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

    Journey to the Savage Planet feels a lot like Subnautica and No Man's Sky, but with its own twist. The exploration is good and the level-design is pretty good, even if the Humor is kinda special. Definitely a game that's worth its price.

    Kirby Planet Robobot tries to bring some new features, and that deserves to be said. Nothing crazy of course, but it gives this new entry an identity for itself. The game is still very easy, is still quite short but it remains a very nice moment of gaming and nobody will ask for his money back.

    Anno is still a great IP which ventures into lunar lands. While the concept is good and the changes are welcome, we would have gladly traded Uplay and DLC's for a multiplayer mode and more maps.

    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.

    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.
