Descenders isn't exactly the prettiest or most varied game out there. But as a virtual downhill experience in this day and age, you can't do much better than this game.

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

The graphics are much more modern and multiple tweaks and additions have been made to improve the gameplay.

Yes, it's very short, but it's also very er... solid. Yeah, we went there.

An enormous level must mean an enormous amount of things to do, right? Right? Nope.

An improvement upon an improvement, Revelations 2 keeps reinvigorating the Resident Evil franchise, though stale environments, generic enemies and disappointing visuals leave it firmly rooted in the "good, but not quite great" category.

More of the same, with improved technical aspects and the addition of four player co-op. If you're a fan of the franchise, this game should be right up your alley. If not, you're probably just going to be confused a lot.

Shooting zombies is still popular and in virtual reality, it's a bit more intense. In Zombieland: Headshot Fever Reloaded, you get an optimised version of the already released game. In it, you are introduced to pick-up-and-play gameplay, various weapons, perks and other features, making the action very varied and fun. The gameplay is also good that a downside is the number of levels, as you want more: which is a good sign.

Wastelands is a textbook filler episode. Sure, there's interesting character development, but it isn't rooted in any interesting gameplay, as Life is Strange 2 still keeps player interactivity to a bare minimum. Add to this a certain level of predictability and you'll understand why this third episode left us thoroughly underwhelmed.

Quite an impressive puzzle game, mainly due to its fantastic level design. The game's a bit too short to fully justify its price tag though.

We could've done without the repetitive sidequests and annoying backtracking, but Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth is still a decent, if somewhat unimaginative experience.

Technically, The Long Dark isn't exactly flawless, but what's here is done well enough to keep armchair adventurers busy for a long time to come.

If you're a car nut, you'll definitely like this. The cars look and sound exactly the way you expect them too, sometimes even better. The online modes are a joy to play. However, a severe lack of content, some strange design choices and the fact that there's hardly any damage models at all keep Gran Turismo Sport from reaching the lofty heights it aims at.

Exploring the ocean and its inhabitants not only turns out to be quite calming, it also manages to find the perfect balance between education and fun. Definitely worth your time and investment.

A surprisingly strong story carries you through this colourful adventure, that constantly manages to find new ways to keep the act of catching Bugsnax interesting. The graphics are a bit disappointing, though... but did that ever stop anyone from having a good time?

An interesting start of a promising series, the first episode of Life Is Strange starts out slow, but develops into something truly beautiful towards the end. If you like playing with time itself, you should definitely give this a shot.

A great party racegame! You'll be crashing and burning for a very long time after buying DiRT Showdown and we assure you that you won't regret spending your hard-earned money on it.

An innovative arcade racer that is highly entertaining, both offline and online. The singleplayer will entertain you for a long time to come and the online component is an adrenaline-fueled funfest. Codemasters delivers a fresh arcade experience that dares to be different and that in itself is remarkable. Even though there are some minor gripes Onrush remains a very capable, fun and innovative racer at its core. Recommended.

Hot Wheels Unleashed is initially a pretty fun arcade racer, with decent controls, as well as a nice connection between soundtrack and gameplay. After a while, the game starts to get tedious, though. Uninspired tracks, annoying enemy AI and a large amount of filler content ultimately prove Hot Wheels Unleashed's downfall.

RIDE 5 is more of the same, but it has all been updated. For example, it looks even nicer, you have plenty of (more) choice of bikes and tracks, and also the feeling on the bike is excellent. On the other hand, the AI is not very intelligent and the career mode fails to convince. Still points to consider in a game that in general is fine. Especially for fans of the series.

Deep, strategic combat and an intriguing story will keep you playing, even though Dragon Star Varnir mostly plays it safe. The level design is especially old-fashioned, but don't let that stop you.

Wario is back with another series of fun microgames and extremely entertaining multiplayer. It's mostly more of the same, but executed in the best possible way, thanks in part to the creative and fun audiovisual style. Although it must be said that it does not bring any real innovation, and the registration of Joy-Cons isn't always on par.

Ghostwire: Tokyo brings a unique world bursting with atmosphere, making Tokyo a pleasure to explore. The entire game is steeped in Japanese folklore, giving it a unique twist. Thanks to the battles and engaging characters, Ghostwire: Tokyo is worth a purchase. The combat can feel a bit limited in the long run and technically it's not perfect, but we'll look past that with love because the core of the game is so cool.

South of Midnight offers you a modern, fun fairy tale characterized by strong audio and fine combat. In that context, a nice adventure, were it not for the fact that the game falls a bit short in level design and predictable arenas, making it a repetition of moves in the long run. Fortunately, the visual presentation makes up for it, but in the end it is a solid game, with the necessary caveats.

A weird, but unique game that's fun to play once. There's hardly any replay value though and the gameplay's rather repetitive.

A strong sense of atmosphere, augmented by spectacular graphics and challenging puzzles, turns The Room VR: A Dark Matter into a must-play title for VR-owners. You should, however, keep into account that the motion controller doesn't always work perfectly when turning.

Farming Simulator features a huge list of vehicles, machines and more, to present farming life as complete as possible. GIANTS succeeds once again with this new part in the franchise. The multiplayer is fun, there is plenty to do, the integration of seasons is a valuable addition and we could go on and on. However, the tutorials could be better for newcomers and the world is a bit dead.

Extremely gory, at times damn creepy and masterfully designed... but also unbalanced, confusing and relying on trial & error throughout most of its admittedly long runtime.

In a genre that is well populated with similar titles, Scintillatron 4069 differentiates itself by offering specific goals and challenges which makes the game addictive and refreshing. Using powerups is extremely annoying though since they can seriously mess up the goals you're trying to accomplish. This combination makes for a somewhat schizophrenic experience. But, all in all a solid arcade shooter which can entertain you for a fair amount of time.

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

A definite step in the right direction for the Resident Evil franchise and the promising start of a new horror series in its own right.

The PS3 version received a well-deserved high score and the same goes for the Vita edition. The game plays great, the characters are well-balanced and there's an awesome amount of content. The loading times are rather long and there's a few minor hick-ups here and there, but overall PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale remains a must-buy, even on Vita.

If you know the franchise well, then you know exactly what to expect. With that, Sniper Elite: Resistance is very familiar in everything, but at the same time that is also a downside: it offers virtually no innovation. Even in terms of content - apart from the locations and missions - it is mostly more of the same. The fine level design makes up for a lot in that regard, and the game is fine in its own right, but some innovation or progress wouldn't hurt.

Concrete Genie is worth playing for its neat story and the magical atmosphere of its world. You should know, though, that it lacks the depth to fully sustain its - already brief - runtime.

The complete package for every Moto GP fan, even if there's still some (minor) room for improvement.

Solid gameplay, a wonderful soundtrack and sublime graphics... Persona Dancing Endless Night Collection makes a great first impression. However, a lack of innovation and an underwhelming story keep the game from reaching a higher score.

Some aspects (such as audio and visuals) of GRID Autosport are a bit sloppy, but for the most part this is a decent racing game.

It's almost as if you're really aboard the U.S.S. Aegis or Enterprise and that's the biggest compliment we can give this title.

The great story, wonderful atmosphere and decent soundtrack make for a worthwhile experience, though the limited and unchallenging gameplay keep Voice of Cards from reaching the lofty heights it aims for.

A neat port of three now classic games that are fine to control on the handheld, but Assassin's Creed II falls a bit out of place considering that really is an old game. That said, if you have never played these titles before, then you will have a lot of fun with this one. At home on the couch, as well as on the go.

Sly Cooper is back and the old raccoon is as fun as he has ever been. The platform gameplay is addicting, even if it lacks any real challenge. The story is interesting, even if the humor feels a bit forced (and childish) at times. In the end, Thieves in time is a fun game for children and adults alike... it just doesn't reach the lofty heights of its predecessors.

A great ending to a remarkable series, even if Telltale keeps a close eye on the already announced second season by not actually resolving anything.

There's a lot to do in Slayaway Camp: Butcher's Cut and most of it is actually a lot of fun. Quite surprising for a mobile game, ported to PS4. Shame the price tag is a little high.

Tweaking engines is RiMS Racing's strong suit, though the associated quick time events eventually turn its gameplay into a drag. Add to this the game's visual mediocrity and you'll realize that RiMS Racing might not be worthy of your time.

We didn't get our hopes up for this one. Call of Juarez: The Cartel was terrible and we didn't expect Techland to get out of their downward spiral. They did, however. Gunslinger is repetitive and the enemy AI is an embarrassment, but the game is still a lot of fun. The story is interesting, the shoot-outs are epic and the environments quite beautiful. Not bad at all.

The Medium tells an interesting paranormal story and allows you to explore an environment that’s as creepy as it is fascinating. On top of that, it looks and sounds great. However, you’ll have to endure the sometimes clunky camera angles.

Suda51 does what Suda51 does best with a wonderfully absurd adventure that plays well, looks and sounds great. The technical performance on the Nintendo Switch leaves something to be desired, though.

A suitable epilogue in which we say our goodbye's to Telltale's Walking Dead and it's all thanks to Skybound. The story, the pacing and the events make sure there is no time for quiet contemplation in this final episode and it's all the better for it. The story's primary focus on AJ works makes for the best conclusion the series could have ever had. We'll miss you!

The return of DuckTales has succeeded. This remake features slick graphics and old-school gameplay, making for a great PlayStation Network title.

Capcom gives its episodic Resident Evil game a proper send-off, though the uniquely constructed co-op mode is still dragged down somewhat by generic enemies and disappointingly standard level design.

League of Legends with a Lord of the Rings skin is... well, as good as you would expect League of Legends with a Lord of the Rings skin to be. Frame-drops and bad connections aside, you won't regret a purchase.

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

Ion Fury is a wonderful, lightning fast and damn challenging shooter, with expert level design. Not everything works perfectly - an overpowered shotgun and clumsy auto-aim are the game's main annoyances - but don't let that stop you from trying this.

The camera's a bit awkward and playing in co-op severely reduces the challenge, but other than that this is one fine action/platform game with a couple of unique bossfights and truly imaginative puzzles as the unmistakable highlights.

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

This new LEGO game is mostly very atmospheric thanks to the setting, the characters and the story. Creating your own character is a great feature but apart from that, LEGO DC Super-Villains is still built on the archaic LEGO-game template. Which means all the criticism aimed at LEGO games in general, apply here too. Familiar bugs, messy coop multiplayer, not enough buttons et cetera. You know exactly what you're going to get if you've played any other LEGO game in the past. Worth it if you really like the DC universe.

If not for the lack of multiplayer modes, Everybody's Golf VR would be one the best golf games ever made. It gives you the illusion that you're actually standing on a golf course and that's quite an impressive achievement.

It's a bit expensive because it's basically the same as its earlier PS3 version, which also means it's still the highly enjoyable arcade shooter you remember.

An interesting mix of different genres that managed to entertain us the whole way through. The mediocre story, annoying soundtrack and at times chaotic gameplay keep it from reaching the absolute top.

This game presents you with an adventure that is quite entertaining, but it lacks a bit of tension and urgency, which is pretty crazy in a murder case. In addition, it is often too unclear what to do, making it trial and error which takes you out of the immersion. This is due to an illogical structure. Nevertheless, the adventure in itself is otherwise fine thanks to the well-developed characters and excellent voice-acting.

Resident Evil will never be the same again... and while Resident Evil 6 isn't really the return to survival horror glory fans were hoping for, this is still a great, gory action title for those willing to overlook clunky controls and mediocre graphics. The vehicle segments really shouldn't have made the final cut though.

Total War: Pharaoh offers fun and challenging gameplay both online and offline. Graphically it is also quite enjoyable and the performance is excellent. However, the game lacks a bit of innovation and the voice-acting is a bit hit-or-miss. It's mostly more of the same within the series, and while that's not a bad thing, it can also feel like a lack of real progress. Despite that, a fine strategy game.

Jacob Jones and the Bigfoot Mystery is an episodic title and the first episode has recently been released. There's a lot of text to tell the story and there's a couple of difficult puzzles to get through. Long story short: this is a fun PlayStation Vita game, available at a low price.

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 game is more of the same if you know the franchise and that in itself is good and bad news. Good news in the sense that you know what to expect in terms of gameplay, because that's just fine. Bad news in the sense that it hardly brings anything new. There is plenty to do and experience, but we know it all from previous parts. In addition, the graphics are in some parts a bit outdated, however in general it looks fine. On the other hand, there is fine gameplay and a fun career mode, but it is time to take innovative steps.

Melody of Memory is a true love letter to the Kingdom Hearts series. Fans will adore the numerous callbacks to older titles in the franchise; newcomers won’t fully get what’s so special about it. This is worth taking into consideration.

The absurd story, satisfying gameplay and worthwhile co-op are enough to keep you engaged. The repetitive soundtrack and lack of multiplayer features, however, will put a bit of a damper on things. The good outweighs the bad, though.

Persona 5 Tactica excels in terms of level design and fun quests, as well as solid gameplay. With that, it's a no brainer for fans of the series to purchase the game. We should note, however, that the story lacks depth and the social aspect. The game is also a lot more compact than other parts in the series, and while that is not necessarily a bad thing, it does feel a bit less complete than we are used to.

As an aspiring manager, you enter Formula 1, mainly turning the knobs behind the scenes. The sport is also incredibly interesting on that side and this is presented in an excellent way, albeit with a high entry threshold. Furthermore, F1 Manager 2022 still has some issues here and there regarding the AI and tires, but that will be fixed. A pity is that crashes look visually lousy and it can be very difficult for newcomers. However, connoisseurs of the sport will have a good one here.

The in-depth gameplay of Aliens: Dark Descent surprises and also has good effects, making it a pleasure to play through the game. Add beautiful graphics and a fun story, and the game has everything to make it highly recommended. You do have to take into account that the controls don't always feel convenient and that building your squad could have been a bit more extensive. In the context of the bigger picture, however, these are issues that should not stop you from giving the game a chance.

This game's a lot of fun, with the 30 Years of Wrestlemania mode as the indisputable highlight. However, the controls aren't very precise, the camera can get quite frustrating and the visuals won't win any awards nowadays. It's good, but it could (and should) have been a lot better.

For the first time ever a game is ported from the Nintendo 3DS to the PlayStation 3. We're happy to report that this strange enterprise has turned out to be successful. The classical RE gameplay is back; claustrophobic and exciting! There's hardly any extra's and the price is a bit steep, but fans of Resident Evil shouldn't hesitate about buying this.

Motorcycle enthusiasts take note, with MotoGP 23 we are replaying the most important motorcycle championship. This in a traditional way similar to previous parts. The AI has improved and the addition of sprint races and dynamic weather, as well as LiveGP does the game justice. Yet we also have to deal with a new accessibility system that is not well balanced, the game can crash and the AI is just a little too good making it unrealistic. That being said, MotoGP 23 offers a lot of content to enjoy.

As a fan, you can't miss this chronological start to the One Piece franchise. Newcomers, however, might find Pirate Warriors 3 confusing and at times a bit too repetitive.

The story's a waste of time and the audio's lacking, but other than that, Dying Light is a blast. As far as mindless, dumb fun with a healthy dose of free running goes, you won't find much better than Dying Light.

A rewarding experience, thanks to fun action, an engaging graphical style and a welcome pinch of strategy. It's a bit repetitive, unfortunately - but if that is your only real complaint, you won't regret a purchase anytime soon.

Often hilarious and always cute, Journey to the Savage Planet is an enjoyable adventure game that offers exploration and platform gameplay in spades. Some bugs dampen the fun a bit, but that's hardly worth complaining about.

Sky Force Reloaded is a pleasant surprise. It's a slightly repetitive, but always challenging experience that impresses with an unconventional progression system. Fans of Resogun need not doubt.

WRC Generations should be the ultimate final installment in the series, but only half succeeds. There is absolutely no shortage of content with plenty of cars and tracks, giving you hours of gameplay. At the same time, it is lacking in innovation and improvement, including relatively mediocre physics. If you already have the previous part, this is not worth it. If you are new, then thankfully WRC Generations has plenty to offer despite some shortcomings.

Wuchang: Fallen Feathers offers a compelling story with deep lore, although it does take a while to get going. Nevertheless, the game has plenty to offer in terms of combat, level design, challenge, and interesting systems to keep the gameplay varied. Technically, it falls a little short due to low resolutions and inconsistent textures, but ultimately that doesn't detract from the pure gameplay, which is more than solid.

With Princess Peach: Showtime! you get a game that is right up her alley. You play a fun action adventure game in the theater that is filled with variety, making it not easily boring. With accessible gameplay, it is for everyone, young and old, but this also makes the game fairly quick to finish. The difficulty level is simply too low, and the blurry image quality doesn't do much for the gaming experience either. Keep this in mind, but the main thing is that you will at least have fun with it.

The most dangerous moto race doesn't exactly make for the most dangerous videogame, but it comes admiringly close. There's room for improvement, especially as far as loading times and multiplayer content are concerned, but overall this realistic race sim will keep you firmly glued to the tip of your seat.

RIDE 4's excellent sense of realism offers a pleasant experience to anyone with a passion for motor racing. There's quite a bit of content here too, with a diverse set of customization features that will keep you tinkering for a long time. Some hiccups do occur though, chief amongst them a rather unconvincing career mode.

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

Simple, but fun - especially when joined by a couple of friends in party mode. Then you'll have a good time. When push comes to shove, however, the amount of content is disappointingly low and the learning curve perhaps a bit too steep to entice new players. Proceed at your own risk.

The story is, as we have come to expect from Supermassive Games, very engrossing, shaped by the excellent characters and good cast. The gameplay is also as good as ever, making for an interesting experience that is plagued by a few illogical situations and technical glitches. Nevertheless, The Quarry is a great game to experience if you are a fan of teen horror films.

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

Tokyo Jungle delivers on a highly unique premise. It's an extremely enjoyable experience, even if mediocre visuals and repetitive gameplay keep it from becoming an instant classic.

This Metro adaptation for virtual reality impresses thanks to its immersive atmosphere, good controls and high level of immersion. Although the game does become a bit predictable in the long run, reducing the tension a bit. In addition, the story gets off to a rather slow start, but once it gets up to speed it manages to keep you entertained until the end. A decent PlayStation VR2 game, is the short conclusion.

Project Warlock is a worthy tribute to the shooters from the nineties, with truly challenging gameplay and RPG elements. The game lacks personality though and some features - the weapon wheel chief among them - don't really work as well as they should. Fun, but not exactly great.

Everyone says PlayStation All-Stars does nothing but cheaply rip off Super Smash Brothers, but there's more to it than that. A lot more, in fact. This is in every way a solid fighter, with a large and well-balanced (though not yet as good as it could have been) cast, many colourful stages and deep, rewarding gameplay elements. Above all it's fun - if not at times a little chaotic.

It's a good Elder Scrolls game, just not an especially great one. The atmosphere and huge amount of quests keep the game interesting, but the individual player's experience is held back by the MMO frame, while the graphics are severely disappointing. Fans shouldn't hesitate, though.

Atomfall presents you with an engaging setting containing exciting situations and interesting gameplay. Because the game is non-linear in structure, the experience will be different for each player, which gives Atomfall a unique twist. Add to that good voice-acting and varied soundtrack and the complete adventure is very solid. Though you should expect some cumbersome combat, less-than-perfect stealth and some inconsistent stealth, that's no reason to skip the game though.

Thanks to credible characters the story this game tells remains interesting. The puzzles are challenging and the graphical style is very pleasant to look at. The game does suffer from overly long load times and the lack of lip-sync detracts from the overall experience. There are some plot holes in the story as well, which is a shame but nevertheless The Council is a fine game.

As far as story and character development goes - not to mention cliffhangers and intriguing developments - Guardian of Gotham is easily the best episode of the series so far. Unfortunately, the technical issues that seem to plague every Telltale release nowadays are also present here. Shame.

It's a bit dumbed down and the graphics are sub-par, but other than that, Crimes and Punishments is a definite step in the right direction.

One Piece Odyssey is a game that will delight fans and newcomers alike. The more tactical gameplay does the franchise justice, and with plenty of content and humor, you will be able to entertain yourself for a long time. There are some minor technical issues, but none of these will spoil the gaming experience with the result that One Piece Odyssey is one of the better games ever in the franchise.

EA takes baby steps in refining the gameplay while adding enough content to keep you entertained for quite a while. The entry barrier for new players is pretty low, which should be beneficial to the game's community. Oddly though, the graphics are of a lesser quality than last year's iteration and the commentary is still off.
