    Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster is still an enjoyable adventure, mostly for those who played it back in the days. But even new players that are interested in the history of Final Fantasy can find some interesting mechanics here. The battle system is still intuitive and Spira is in all way as beautiful as ever. Even if the differences between the original and the remastered version can seem a bit small at first they become obvious in a direct comparison.

    Sucker Punch have delivered a smart, fun and ambitious superhero game that both dares to give the player a lot of powers along with the responsibility that comes with that. Even if the game doesn't exactly shout out next gen, it's in any ways technically impressive and probably the best game yet for the Playstation 4.

    It doesn't have the deepest game mechanics, and some moments feels somewhat confusing. But Stick of Truth may be the most genuinely entertaining game I've played in a long time. It is just like a long and thought out South Park episode with simple yet very entertaining gameplay. It isn't perfect, but as a South Park experience, it is spot on.

    Steamworld Dig is an indie game that mixes Boulder Dash and Castlevania in a great way. To dig down into the mine in search of precious stones, new abilities and secrets quickly becomes addictive. It feels a little disappointing when the bottom has been reached, but the road there is very entertaining.

    Dark Souls 2 is not the bomb as its predecessor was, but still manages to do its heavy brand justice. With sustained difficulty, atmosphere and overall experience of desperation, hopelessness and triumph at overcome difficulties, we see evidence that there is something in the phrase "do not fix what is not broken".

    A creative, innovative and at the same time familiar action game that make its rivals feel ancient. Instead of spending the budget on great graphics and expensive production values, Respawn Entertainment has invested in making an interesting and unique action game. While the campaign mode is more of a nice idea than a well-executed one, the online mode is a window to intuitive, engaging and varied entertainment.

    Yoshi's New Island is exactly what the title gossips about - a remake of the almost twenty-year-old original. And it is for good and bad. It's nice to once again see the world with its pastel-colored graphics, but at the same time it offers to little new for it to feel justified. The result is in some places a nice platformer that unfortunately is a bit tedious in the long run.

    An excellent expansion and almost a must for those who appreciated Shadowrun: Returns. Action, atmosphere and environments contribute to a more engaging experience. Some of the most glaring misses from the predecessor has been fixed, but there are still some flaws. The text-heavy arrangement requires much of the player, but the reward is even greater for those who want to go deep in the world of Shadow Run.

    The return of the master thief Garrett is a mixed bag. Thief builds on its series proud heritage of tactile stealth, focusing on realism but loses some of the way to modern design trends. Thief has some unnecessary padding that smooth out the gameplay as well as some cinematic ambitions that do not reach all the way. Above all, it is plagued by qualitative valleys that appear to be a result of a stressed launch. Nevertheless, Thief gets a weak recommendation because the basic formula is still fun and somewhat unique.

    Garden Warfare is an entertaining online games with inviting playability and unique design for a game in the genre. The tempo in both combat and how fast to unlock new material is very addictive. After a while you start it unfortunately feels a bit tedious, much because there are too few game modes and maps. As a whole, it is a game I can recommend though, especially considering that it is not sold at full price.

    A half-hearted HD update of a game that had a lot of problems when it was launched ten years ago. Problems that have not become easier to forgive as time have passed. During all scrap hides, however, hides a really fun game, but the only big fans should consider a return to Albion.

    The Last of Us: Left Behind is an extension that continues in the same vein as the original. The combat system is tight and the production is impressive. The adventure is however plagued of much padding, and a story that is more ambitious than actually good. The weaker section of the two in the series but worth a look if you feel you did not get enough last time.

    Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc is a text-heavy adventure game with action and strong characters as showpieces. The game mechanics borrows elements from Ace Attorney, where the murder locations to be searched for evidence later presented during the trial. For those who do not fear the large text volumes remain only a couple of flaws in an otherwise refreshing gaming experience.

    The Lego Movie Video Game offers a shorter campaign, fewer secrets and a more boring character gallery than usual. Despite this, it manages to still be one of the better Lego games from the TT factory thanks to the charm and the high pace. Seeing the movie first is strongly recommended though.

    Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 mixes elements from popular games without really understanding how the pieces must be assembled. The result is a tedious and sloppy game that most feels like something that the developer Mercury Team wanted to get over with. Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 lacks even the ambitious driven from its predecessor. It's not a bad game, but not worth playing.

    Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze is in every way a better game than its predecessor. It contains more variety, more fun levels and wonderful David Wise-written music. Retro Studios has some way to go before they can compete with Nintendo in terms of gameplay, but otherwise, this is one of the more successful games in the genre.

    This is a mood-laden puzzle game that unfortunately does not reach all the way. The atmosphere gets the player into the mysterious world, but small and big problems very often pops up and lowers the experience. Despite this, I still like Master Reboot, to some extent anyway, and it will be exciting to see what Wales Interactive tinker together next.

    It's a bit disappointing that the remake of Tomb Raider could not deliver any new content of value, but the graphics and next-gen effects are eye candy that is more than welcome. This is not enough for the already saved to buy Lara Croft's latest adventure again, but the game is still a shining example of an entertaining action adventure that should be experienced.

    With Blackguards, German Daedalic offers an adventure in the vein of a dice RPG. Unfortunately also some irritating moments follows from that kind of games, and when pure chance can decide a difficult battle it all feels quite frustrating. But Blackguards is an entertaining game with well-made elements, and definitely deserves a chance to prove itself.

    Broken Age is in many ways an amazing adventure. It offers a unique style and has dialogues which in most cases are of very high class. Unfortunately, the story fails to engage to the point that you have to play on, which is a problem considering that this is only the first of two parts. In combination with a gameplay mechanic suffering from lack of new ideas, the game fails to climb higher on the rating scale. But for the genre buff, there is no reason to keep the pennies.

    A half-hearted HD conversion of a half-hearted game. The problems with the main series are even more evident here as much has been reused to fill out the running time. The story seems more important than it is and the game's greatest strength - to switch between different personalities for Aveline, is regrettably mostly used as a gimmick.

    Stoic has been successful with its tactical role-playing game. The viking theme and graphic design is a breath of fresh air, while the animations and the combat system could have been a bit more varied. Expect a text heavy and challenging experience where most of the role playing consists of your choices in dialogues which then affects the plot.

    A very slow party game. The majority of the mini games are well done and easy to learn and play, but all the waiting time is killing the pace and joy of playing. A group of players could have some fun, but if you're playing alone - stay away.

    Have you missed the days of Tony Hawk? Then this game is for you. It doesn't offer as complex levels and make an attempt to include the culture aspect, but the hunt for points is there. One of the better Playstation Vita titles yet.

    Probably not a game for everyone. The pace can at times be very low, and the developers could've thrown in more surprises. But it's a title that is hard to put down once you've gotten into it.

    A quick fighting game that is easy to get into and doesn't require the player to memorize very much to be good. The Playstation 4-version has a graphics overhaul with higher resolution and better anti-aliasing, but aside from that there is nothing new.

    Bravely Deafult is the best game from Square-Enix in a long time and a must for fans of classic Final Fantasy. The battle and work system, as well as the history and the graphics is natural progresses of a gamemaking many deemed nostalgic.

    World of Warplanes is a fun, arcady game with quick and exciting battles. It should have a bit better presentation and immersion even though the game isn't about that. Its easy action, and hopefully a small taste of something that the developers will add with more functions.

    Just like earlier titles Skylander Swap Force is firstly a well made platform game fitting for most age groups. It’s sorta simple and the level design is nothing special but the use of figures and creative thinking is great. Even though the solution to the games puzzles is sometimes obvious.

    Zen Studios pinball games keeps up its stride of great pinball games. There are some minor issues here and the price is kinda out there, but if you like pinball and you like Star Wars it’s just sort of perfect.
