    Far from a bad game, Jet Set Radio HD suffers from long loading times, silly controls and overall repetitiveness.

    It's not a huge game in terms of context, but the highly enjoyable gameplay makes it well worth the wait.

    If not for the addition of a new - and surprisingly enjoyable - game mode, this iteration of the NHL franchise would've felt exactly like its predecessor.

    Top of the league in every possible aspect, Unruly Heroes is a game that will have you enthralled in front of your TV-screen for all of its runtime.

    Just Dance 2018 is exactly what you've come to expect from this series. It's a lot of fun, especially now that you can use your smartphone to participate.

    The atmosphere and presentation in this sequel are again very good, just like the story and world design. However, the random encounters can become a bit annoying, just as the menus are annoying because of the way they work. These are some criticisms that get in the way of a smooth experience. That said, in terms of gameplay, it is otherwise more than good and if you liked the previous installment, you'll be fine again.

    If you were expecting a phenomenal third game in this series, you'll be disappointed by the amount of wasted potential displayed on screen. The worst offenders? A weird control scheme, boring career mode and lots of small technical issues. The game's still fun to play, but it could've been so much more.

    The first episode of the supposed final season of Telltale's The Walking Dead is a classic slow burn, with well-developed characters and a real shocker of an ending. Telltale experiments with giving the player a bit more input and though this is nice conceptually, it unfortunately also leads to a lot of trial-and-error. Don't let that stop you though; there's a lot of promise here.

    Hohokum is a weird game above all else. The relaxing music and special visual style, however, is held back by clumsy level design.

    The latest installment in the franchise is more than welcome and scores points mainly on its beautiful and varied world. The combat is also diverse and the soundtrack is incredibly enjoyable. However, the pace of the game is a bit crazy, the dialogues are choppy and the animations are a bit disappointing. Still some flaws, but if you are a fan of the franchise you will nevertheless enjoy it.

    A fun collection with a lot of diverse games that invokes a lot of nostalgia. The games are emulated perfectly and extra options such as load and save states come in extremely handy. At its core this is a solid package but the fact that the controls are poorly explained is a missed opportunity. Also, a number of high profile third party titles are blatantly absent. There aren't any extra features either but it doesn't take away from the fact that this is a solid package overall.

    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 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.
