    An entertaining title that excels in coop. The main characters have loads of personality which makes for an entertaining adventure, rounded off by a fantastic score. Some puzzles are repeated far too often however and you can get stuck in the environments which is a bit sloppy. Nevertheless, Pode is well worth your time.

    MotoGP 20 offers more realism and better physics, as well as a remarkable graphical improvement. Because of this, it's one of the best titles in the franchise. It's not all great, though: the game's historical mode lacks substance, while the presence of bugs and glitches never ceases to annoy.

    Trials of Mana retains the atmosphere of the original, but its gameplay feels a bit dated at times. But if you can overlook this, as well as the many loading times, you’ll be in for a lengthy adventure that’s definitely worth your while.

    Assassin's Creed: Mirage excels in level design which allows for the best parkouring in years. It is a highlight of the game along with the soundtrack, the Tales of Baghdad and the greater focus on stealth. At the same time, it is clear that the previous games are the foundation, making stealth more of an addition than a core element. In addition, the story pauses a bit too long between the beginning and end, and the combat is a bit dull at times. Ultimately, a fine game, but one with both many pluses and minuses.

    Readers, behold - this one's for you. Torment: Tides of Numenera is an engaging RPG with a lot of options and deep fighting mechanics. It's not completely brilliant - some technical issues and long loading times manage to annoy - but don't let that stop you.

    With some slower gameplay, EA Sports FC 25 plays very well, giving the right feeling. In addition, new additions are very good, such as Rush, FC IQ, the use of Cranium and various gameplay tweaks. Does that make it the ultimate soccer game? Yes in the sense of for lack of better/competition, no when it comes to the bugs and glitches, as well as the lack of innovation in the game. It's mostly more of the same with no real big steps forward in gameplay, with the tweaks not necessarily all doing what they are supposed to.

    A new racer in the well-known franchise that doesn't really excel at anything, but certainly doesn't do anything wrong either. It is entertaining, varied and has enough content to keep you interested for a long time. It also looks and plays nice. It is notable that it is on the easy side and that there are some flaws here and there. Fan of arcade racers? Then this is a good choice.

    It looks like we're playing a game on an ancient Greek vase, which makes it unique in the visuals department. The gameplay isn't as deep as it could have been, but it's enough to keep you interested for a while - or at least until the next big guns come out.

    Some bugs and the inconsistent batting mechanic can cause quite a bit of frustration, though it never breaks the experience. Challenging, yet accessible, the actual gameplay turns out to be a lot of fun. The ability to create your own courts is a nice extra.

    EA is back with a golf game and they don't hit a hole in one right away, but they do come off well. The game mainly stands out for its beautiful courses and smooth gameplay, which can provide hours of fun via the extensive career. The presentation of the sport, on the other hand, is a bit thin and visually the animations are a bit disappointing. Otherwise, the game has many small improvements to make. Nevertheless, it is a decent golf game that will entertain fans of the sport.

    After a bad game two years back, we now have another good sequel in the series. Visual Concepts has taken its time and it works out well. Modi such as MyRISE and MyGM are very cool, the audiovisual is well done and the gameplay is very refined yet accessible, making it appeal to a wide audience. WWE 2K22 does have some sloppiness here and there, but that's okay.

    Although the story is sometimes a bit vague and predictable, the puzzles are anything but. This game is a looker with a fantastic atmosphere and there is plenty content for you to experience. If you played and loved titles such as Portal or The Talos Principle this title is absolutely recommended.

    This re-release of Disney Epic Mickey is a fine reunion that excels for its creative world, atmosphere and visual presentation, were it not for a game breaking bug toward the end. In addition, the lack of voice-acting is a bit uncomfortable in the experience and it's odd that you can't revisit levels afterwards because of the many secrets to discover. Some points of criticism, and while those can be looked past, the game breaking bug is a problem which has a considerable effect on the score.

    The gameplay of Tales of Kenzera: ZAU is nice thanks to the fine movement and cool combat. At the same time, it is unfortunate that the game quickly becomes repetitive in platforming and the battles are somewhat limited due to a lack of variety in enemies. The game can be described as Metroidvania in a way, but also not quite - it is a lot more accessible, which in turn makes it interesting for a wide audience. Overall, the game is certainly not bad, but it has so much more potential.

    Saints Row IV continues the franchise's trend of gradually descending into insanity. This episode features the absurd and varied gameplay we've come to know and love, and adds super powers to the mix. There's definitely a lack of innovation and the visuals were not all that impressive, but none of this is truly gamebreaking. One thing is sure: you'll have a lot of fun playing this game, especially if you're a fan of the series.

    Not entirely a puzzle game, Chime Sharp puts a lot of emphasis on agility and adds a truly enjoyable soundtrack to the mix. Yet the puzzles are needlessly confusing at times due to the game's colour scheme and the ever-running timer cranks up the frustration.

    A remake of the original Game Boy Advance game that comes with plenty of variety in the puzzles, offers an excellent challenge and introduces fun co-op features. Nintendo delivers a solid remake that does exactly what you expect from it without really risking anything. Too bad the boss fights are not as good - more frustrating, - because that should have been the icing on the cake.

    Ratchet & Clank return to their roots, though their "comeback" isn't exactly a homerun. You'll have a lot of fun with Nexus, to be sure, but certain aspects - some weapons are useless, there isn't any innovation to speak off and Clank's moments in the spotlight are more frustrating than enjoyable - could have been done better. In the end, fans will definitely want to get this, though newcomers should think twice.

    With FIFA 23, EA takes another step forward when it comes to gameplay with the necessary relatively subtle improvements and innovations. FUT Moments is an excellent addition and the visual quality is outstanding. At the same time, there isn’t a lot of real innovation and the game still has its share of issues and bugs, which can interfere with gameplay. Basically a good football game, but EA still has some polishing to do.

    Dripping with atmosphere, Mafia offers a strong story with engaging characters, great voice-acting and an intriguing setting. The game does fine in the gameplay department as well, but strafing feels a bit clunky and there's quite a bit of screen-tearing to spoil your fun. You'll still have a good time, though.

    Depending on the people you're playing with, Werewolves Within is either an amazing social experience or a boring lonely one.

    It's a bit cliché and at times rather buggy, but those are only minor problems in an otherwise very enjoyable game. London makes for a great setting and genuine improvements in gameplay make Syndicate another step forward in the franchise.

    A wonderful prequel to the New Order. Did you like the original game? Then you'll definitely want... nay, NEED this. What are you waiting for?

    MotoGP 24 is the best game in the franchise to date. This is due to the new transfer market, the refinement of gameplay thanks to the adaptive difficulty and stewards, although they often make curious decisions as well. In addition, the game lacks real innovation in its various modes. In terms of gameplay, it is top notch, but the rest is all rather basic. Newcomer? Then this is your motor racing game. Do you have the previous installment? Stick with that.

    The concept is nice and surprisingly challenging, making for an ideal game to play in-between the bigger titles.

    It's been a long time coming, but finally the Dying Light sequel is here. The parkour is refined, the combat is great and the city is lively enough to keep you entertained for a long time. There is also plenty to do in the game, but at the same time it is mainly more of the same without really big innovative steps forward. The first few hours are also disappointing and the visual modes do not offer a best of both worlds standard. A fine sequel, but perhaps a victim of too high expectations.

    The Top Spin franchise is back and what the game does well is presenting you nice tennis gameplay. Indeed, you play a delightful game of tennis in this game, which you learn through excellent tutorials. The career mode is also a pleasure to play through, but so much for the good news. Less good news is that visually it looks questionable, especially the tennis players and outside of career mode the game is not that engaging. Online you can also get started, of course, but there, as always with 2K Sports games, you have the VC ruining the fun.

    The atmosphere is the main draw here, in part thanks to an excellent soundtrack. The gameplay is fun as well, if a bit easy and superficial. Overall, a fun adventure that's worth a try.
