Just Dance 2017 once again plays it safe. If you're looking for a fun party game, look no further. If you're looking for innovation, you won't be able to satisfy your needs here.

Its sluggish controls and disinterested voice-acting provide a sharp contrast with its ambitious level design, neat graphics and addictive gameplay.

A more-than-decent sequel that aptly addresses the criticism the first game received. We could've done without the framedrops, however.

Subtle improvements and a batch of new features keep Blazblue on track, though its graphics are in dire need of an upgrade.

A wonderful VR adventure with truly impressive graphics and an interesting world to explore, dragged down somewhat by a minor lack of excitement.

A great finale to a series that wasn't always as convincing as it should be, this sixth episode combines everything that made the Hitman games great and puts Agent 47 back on the map.

Hardly original and poorly executed, Super Dungeon Bros could have been a lot of fun, were it not for the annoying bugs, slow controls and unforgiving difficulty. Shame.

An intuitive camera turns Wayward Sky, much to our surprise, into one of the most enjoyable games for PlayStation VR yet.

There's a lot of potential here, thanks to the game's interesting characters and intriguing storyline. The controls are a bit clumsy though and the puzzles often more confusing than enjoyable. In other words: there's definitely room for major improvement in the following episodes.

The replay value is off the charts, as is Dishonored 2's layered tale and elaborate gameplay. The title improves upon its predecessor in just about every way imaginable.

Snowboarding is back... and this game made us wonder whether that's actually a good thing. Aren't some things meant to stay dead?

Decent fan service, building upon the foundation of the original. However, a lack of innovation and emphasis on "playing it safe" don't exactly turn Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 into a must buy. 

Great controls make Eagle Flight an absolute blast to play, both in single and multiplayer format. The content on offer is rather limited, though.

VEV's low price tag is a plus, as is the unique concept behind the game. You should keep in mind though that VEV also offers extremely repetitive gameplay and controls that don't always work the way they should. 

It's Fan Service with capitals F and S, offering a lot of content and unique visual style to lure gamers in. However, the graphics are mediocre at best and the overlong tutorials bored us to tears. 

A nice homage to the classic Shoot 'm Up games from the golden age, that only falters in its repetitive enemy design. 

Waddle Home is quite the amusing experience, though it beats us why this rather straightforward experience thinks it needs virtual reality to succeed. 

A fun collection of mini-games, though some are significantly better than others.


The ideal party game for PlayStation VR, Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes scores with its original concept and enjoyable multiplayer.

A nice comeback, were it not for the bugs and glitches. They were present in the previous versions and, unfortunately, appear to have made the journey to this generation of consoles along with everything else.

The story lacks depth, but the connection between the player and his Titan is worth the journey. The multiplayer, however, is almost worth the price tag on its own.

Exactly the same game as before, but with better graphics and limited mod support. Still worth your money.

Lots of depth and freedom give Farming Simulator 17 quite the edge when compared to its predecessors. However, a truckload of bugs, a lack of innovation and an overabundance on repetitive gameplay elements keep this farmer from earning maximum profit.

A spectacular singleplayer and enjoyable Zombies mode will keep you going for a while. The multiplayer is business as usual, but lacks the X-factor that made Black Ops III such a treat.

Some minor technical improvements don't make up for a weak first hour that lacks the punch of the previous two episodes.

If not for some graphical and framerate issues, Batman: Return to Arkham would be one of the best remasters out there.

Fighting in space has never been so realistic as it is depicted in EVE Valkyrie. However, it's also never been so dull. An unnecessary micro-transaction system turns this game into a missed opportunity.

Thumper is a fast-paced experience that will challenge you. It plays well in virtual reality and looks great. Long story short: one of the better - if not the best - PlayStation VR launch games out there.

Beautiful graphics, an intriguing singleplayer campaign and rock-solid multiplayer modes that deliver in every way imaginable... Battlefield 1 is the best game the franchise has delivered in years.

Battlezone is at its best when played in co-op. Its graphics are neat, its sound design solid and the illusion of driving a tank around is expertly crafted - provided you're not prone to motion sickness. However, Battlezone is also quite repetitive as far as its gameplay goes and experiencing a campaign reset is bound to cause frustration.

Tumble VR is enjoyable and works well with a PlayStation Move controller. It's as good a way as any to kill some time.

At first, Here They Lie is quite the scarefest. Unfortunately, this sense of creepiness doesn't last long. In the end, Here They Lie is a confusing walking simulator that simply doesn't offer enough in terms of depth or content to deserve your hard-earned money.

It's another Minecraft look-a-like, folks - complete with simple mechanics, an unreliable camera and a bare bones fighting system. And still, mainly due to its beautiful graphics and addictive gameplay, Dragon Quest Builders comes highly recommended.

It's a neat idea, to be sure, but its execution leaves an awful lot to be desired. If anything, air hockey in VR is an enjoyable way to spend a couple of minutes. This, however, is in no way enough to justify the price tag.

Another fun little adventure with quite a lot of options to create your own, unique characters. It's still a bit slow and the camera at times seems to get a kick out of annoying you, but other than that, Skylanders once more delivers on its promises.

WWE 2K17 offers some improvements when compared to its predecessors, but hiding the popular Showcase mode behind a paywall is hard to forgive.

It's kind of predictable, especially in the jump scare department, but don't let that fool you. Until Dawn: Rush of Blood is a highly enjoyable on-rails shooter with creepy enviroments, convincing visuals and expert sound design.

A game with a lot of depth and challenge, presented in a fun and unique way. Newcomers beware; the learning curve is quite steep!

If you bought a PlayStation VR, RIGS is a must-buy launch title.

An amazing, intuitive introduction to virtual reality that will amuse you to no end - even if the amount of job scenarios is ultimately rather unimpressive.

The price tag is a bit steep, yet if you want a great virtual reality experience, you should look no further.

Being Batman, the world's greatest detective, never gets old, even if the actual experience won't last all that long.

Driveclub VR is almost an entirely new game, that plays wonderfully in VR. Unfortunately, this racing experience falls flat in the graphics department.

Better than its predecessor in almost every way, though long loading times and dated graphics still keep the game from reaching top marks.

A rock solid game and a lot of extra content - including a VR expansion! - make this the ultimate edition of Rise of the Tom Raider. A must have for every fan of the franchise.

You win some, you lose some... that's the case with anthologies, isn't it? Unfortunately, with PlayStation VR Worlds, you lose more than you win.

The co-op mode is great, giving the game a lot of replay value. The rest of Warhammer: The End Times - Vermintide is fine as well, except for the lackluster framerate.

Better than the last one, but some weird gameplay choices - chief among which a stupid penalty system - keep it from being truly impressive.

It's addictive and fun, even if it lacks innovation and any real graphical prowess.

A challenging episode, but it never hits the level of Paris or Sapienze. It's fun for a while, but nothing all too memorable.

A mysterious story makes for an engaging adventure, though slow AI and annoying framedrops keep Aragami from reaching the lofty heights it aims for.

The same thing as last year, with a couple of expected improvements. Nothing special, but enough tweaks to keep the series interesting.

It's funny and thoroughly enjoyable, but also linear and predictable. This is the weakest episode so far.

Bruce Wayne once more claims the spotlight in an interesting hour of Gotham action, but technically, the game's once more a mess. This needs to change, sooner rather than later.

The pay-to-play method is shameful and technically, The Tomorrow Children isn't all that great either. A missed opportunity, since the game's theme remains interesting.

Mafia III is a game with a great, interesting story and is quite enjoyable if you can look past the repetitive gameplay and technical issues. The open-world feels more like an open-map with almost no activities to engage in, which is a shame.

This medieval simulator is a technical mess, with mediocre graphics, clumsy controls and a steep learning curve. However, if you manage to look past all that, there's still something to like here.

RIVE is challenging, funny and chaotic. Unfortunately, it's also a bit short and its weapons derivative.

FIFA 17 is wonderful; the graphics are improved, the gameplay works better and The Journey is an interesting addition.

BioShock is an experience, a revelation, a religion. It's the answer to the question "Can games be art?" and this is the best possible version of it.

Difficult and old-school, Slain manages to deliver despite its uninteresting boss fights and linear level design.

The story remains on the surface, which is unfortunate, since the rest of the game - new quests, missions and artefacts included - is more than interesting enough to sustain your interest.

NBA 2K17 isn't the most forgiving experience for newcomers to the franchise, but if you know your virtual basketball, this is the one and only place to be this year.

Strong acting and an interesting, creepy story make The Bunker very much worth experiencing at least once. It's a nice little adventure, though two hours of limited playtime may not be enough to justify the pricetag.

As the ending to the first season, the eighth episode of Minecraft: Story Mode delivers an emotional pay-off. However, the game's still a technical mess, while the story once more didn't manage to keep our attention throughout its runtime.

It's a bit simplistic, but other than that, Assetto Corsa is a fine racing simulator.

MeiQ doesn't lack depth. Unfortunately, what it does lack, is just about everything else.

Top-down hitman, that's what this stealth game feels like. It's fun, definitely when you're playing it with a friend, which makes the mediocre graphics and clumsy controls a bit easier to digest.

Slow and methodic, this clumsy shooter isn't for everyone. Those who persevere, however, will find a diamond in disguise.

This would have been a perfect anime game if not for the abhorrent camera. Kill that thing with fire, then enjoy the game.

Konami shoots, Konami scores. As long as you mute the commentary track, that is.

Quotation forthcoming.

Steep learning curve and mediocre graphics aside, The King of Fighters XIV defends it crown with gusto.

A number of big, but subtle improvements put Madden NFL one step closer to perfection, even if they're not quite there yet.

A walking simulator that's very much worth playing, Valley sports wonderful environments, intuitive gameplay and a brilliant soundtrack. To top it all of, this game's story is memorable almost to a fault.

An awesome puzzle game with a fascinating style and a dark, but intriguing storyline. Fans of Limbo shouldn't hesitate.

This out-of-the-box and challenging puzzle game was brilliant before and it's even beter on PS4.

It's a nice level, to be sure, but the formula's starting to grow stale. On top of that, the requirement to always be online is still annoying and the game's performance is far from perfect.

The singleplayer isn't special in any way, but as is most often the case with Worms, the multiplayer's very much worth your time.

The best F1 game in years, with loads of content and an improved career mode. A must have for every F1 fan.

In style and gameplay a decent sequel to Grow Home, an annoying camera and clumsy BUD keeps it from reaching lofty heights.

It's Uno. On PlayStation 4. Nothing more, nothing less. What you do with that information, is entirely up to you.

Storywise, it's the logical evolution of Human Revolution, but it's gameplay is recycling its predecessor here and there. That's not a bad thing, though the framerate issues are a little less easy to forgive.

Telltale more than anything manages to capture what it's like to be Bruce Wayne. It does an admirable attempt at capturing what it's like to be Batman too, but ultimately falls a bit short due to the limitations of the chosen format.

A fun little racing game, especially when you've got friends to play it with. It's nothing special, though.

Despite an underwhelming and needlessly confusing story, Bound's unique gameplay and fantastic art is er... bound to keep at least some souls enthralled.

Endless universe, endless grind. Quite a fascinating ride at the start, which unfortunately turns into a bit of a drag through sheer repetition as the hours stack up.

A nice little spin on the well-known Tetris formula, Tricky Towers is a lot of fun when you've got some friends to play it with.

Hectic, challenging and very enjoyable with a friend... Overcooked works, even if it is a bit of a drag when you're playing it by yourself.

It's not quite original - the cliché storyline is one of the chief offenders - and the lack of a proper tutorial leaves players in the dark. Nevertheless, if you're willing to overlook these fumbles, I Am Setsuna is still very much worth playing.

The story's kind of pointless, but you'll have fun playing through it. The technical issues should've been fixed by now, though unfortunately we still experienced some.

Nice characters and an engaging management aspect aren't enough to save this mess of game. Skip it.

The sequel continues the admirable level of quality that was delivered by the original, with improved AI to boot. Great game.

The amount of fan service is both admirable and astonishing, but the lack of local multiplayer modes is hard to forgive. On top of that, the graphics suck and the game doesn't do anything others haven't already done before it. Conclusion: a major disappointment.

It takes a while to get going and doesn't do anything all that surprising, but other than that, Fairy Fencer F's engaging characters and fun combat system makes this a title very much worth playing.

The Technomancer sports a neat idea and an intriguing setting, but ultimately falls short due to boring conversations, mediocre gameplay and disappointing graphics. This could have been so much better.

The newest Star Ocean game isn't for everyone, but it's a wonderful science fiction RPG nevertheless, boasting magnificent combat, a transcendent soundtrack and mostly beautiful graphics. Absolutely worth your while.

This highly addictive RPG experience will keep you hooked in front of your TV for a very long time.
