    Hidden Agenda is a couch co-op adventure game played with a smartphone. It has some narrative issues, but was still fun to play with friends.

    Still the best thing for any true Football lover out there, it will take weeks and months of your life.

    LEGO Marvel Superheroes 2 is a nice and cute game, the gameplay is maybe mediocre at times and boss fights aren’t challenging, but when you play it in co-op with your friends or kids, it will give you a fair amount of fun.

    Knowledge is Power? No. A kick to the groin of the winning player is power! This is a pretty standard quiz game, but those always make you pumped up for a round of trivia and friendly curses. So, gather your friends and play a game or two. If you have any friends left, that is, after your winning streak, Mr Know-it- all.

    Singstar wants to be karaoke for PS4 but with its very limited song list on the disk and a huge paid DLC library, you would do best to find a different karaoke solution. Think YouTube.

    Blue Reflection is but a mere reflection of what Gust is capable of. But, though flaws are many, there are some cool things you can enjoy here, especially if you are a hardcore JRPG fan. If not, and you are not into browsing through cute anime girls while listening to badass OST, skip this game like a YouTube ad - as soon as possible.

    Four years have passed since the last GT game in the franchise, and although this game stayed true to its roots and remains a true driving simulation, choices like reducing number of available vehicles, missing any kind of single player campaign (other than driving schools) and a lack of weather effect control in this day and age may have set this game to a bad start against its main competitors.

    The epic clash between two storied universes returns with Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite, the next era of the action-fighting game series. Marvel and Capcom universes collide like never before as iconic characters team up for action-packed player-versus-player combat.

    UbiSoft managed to bring the same authentic South Park humor and atmosphere as Obsidian did with the previous game.

    Real Farm is just another farm simulator with some interesting field monitoring mechanics, but it doesn’t differ much from the core formula and other games in the genre.

    Megaton Rainfall is an interesting concept and good idea on a paper, but in reality things are not so great. Mediocre gameplay and solid graphics with story that is rather nonexistent are not worth your time.

    Evil Within 2 brings the classic survival horror formula - to the modern times. Few are the games of today that will grant you that "barely made it" feeling you had playing Resident Evil ages ago. A near perfect, pure survival horror gem.

    Great addition to an already great game. Total War at its finest.

    Another WWE 2K game is here, and another ˝almost there˝ disappointing result. It looks like the only thing that they really tried to improve are the fighter models, and that’s it. Bugs are still present, there’s also a lootbox system, and although there are a number of things that should be fixed and changed, sadly this is currently the best wrestling game out there.

    The New Colossus is a Wolfenstein game and it doesn’t deviate much from the formula. This is good and bad at the same time because the strong story is not backed up by evolution in gameplay.

    The only thing that will keep you with this outdated game is nostalgia and love for the comic series.

    Shallow story combined with historic inaccuracies and very buggy multiplayer gave us a game that leaves a bitter taste in stark contrast with big expectations. War Mode is a bright spot and is currently the only thing really worth playing, but there’s still hope that the game might improve over time with patches.

    Though a really neat game, Super Mario Odyssey is an utterly underwhelming adventure for every long-term Super Mario fan in existence. Unless Cappy brainwashed you. In that case, you are a satisfied zombie customer now. No, seriously, only a zombie would find a healthy challenge in this pleasant but disappointingly easy Super Mario Walk-in-the-park. Sorry - Odyssey.

    Steamworld Dig 2 is bigger and better than its predecessor in every way possible, except for one - it's still a game that has to end. There is no multiplayer, endless or random generating modes you could enjoy after the credits roll. But for the length of the campaign, it is an experience only a masterful metroidvania can deliver.

    Upgrading a formula can sometimes break it, and Shadow of War comes quite close to being such a product. Yet despite all of the upgrades that pour like rain that you're trying to dodge; at its core, this is still an amazingly entertaining game. Just be prepared for some grinding, if you are not into microtransactions...

    Hockey is returning to your local PC and is Super Bloody good. Fast paced, atmospheric, a tad violent, and completely retro, Super Blood Hockey will provide you with tons of fun, even if you are not a fan of the sport.

    Interesting experiment that wraps a tech-noir short story/text adventure in an elegant, meaningful and modern wrapping. It's short, and has its flaws, but the presentation is great, and worth your time.

    Great game. Compared to the last year’s installment we can see improvements in all aspects. Graphics are better, penalty system is good now, nothing random will occur. But, this is still way too hard for anyone except the hardcore rally fans.

    In an age of small DLCs to see a full old school expansion is a really refreshing sight. War of the Chosen enriches the original experience on a whole new level and it's a must for fans of the XCOM series.

    As a spectacular and blasting experience, Matterfall rides on reflexes of the player. It rides with intensity, speed and... is short. It is so short that you will finish it in 2 hours, then stare at the wall for 2 more. But while it lasts and doesn’t force you to chase the high-score, Matterfall is an awesome little title.

    Yakuza Zero is a fantastic game. Spectacular main story combined with great diversity of sub-stories and solid gameplay create a rather unique game.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Great overall story with rich character customization, well known Saints Row humor and beautiful and nostalgic animations from 80s morning cartoons. It’s hard to look at the positives, among all of the technical problems, and very dull and unvaried open-world and repetitive combat mechanics. Agents of Mayhem comes without any kind of online multiplayer mode, and that’s what makes this game undeserving of its 60$ price tag.
