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.- PlaySense

This remake of the eponymous original title does unique things by presenting you with different stories that keep you enthralled. Audiovisually, it's also a great experience to have, but it does make the RPG gameplay feel a bit out of place, since everything is laid out for you from A to Z. This also makes the replayability low, while the overall experience actually leaves you wanting more. Nevertheless, a solid remake of a particularly unique game.- PlaySense

Mortal Kombat 1 is, at its core, a fine fighting game thanks to its smooth gameplay and solid performance. Moreover, the Kameo fighters really add something, but that doesn't take away from the fact that it still feels like a small step down from Mortal Kombat 11. This is partly due to the Invasion mode being less interesting than the Krypt, the voice acting is mediocre and the roster is somewhat limited. Certainly not a bad game, but certainly not the best Mortal Kombat ever either.- PlaySense

Without the PS VR Aim Controller, Farpoint wouldn't exactly raise many eyebrows. However, with the VR's newest gadget in mind, Farpoint almost becomes a must-buy. Unfortunately, this doesn't make the ending any less anti-climactic.- PlaySense

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.- PlaySense

A fun hack & slash game that unfortunately gets repetitive towards the end. Oh, and the less said about the English voice-acting, the better.- PlaySense

Definitely not the best anime adaptation, but also not the worst. There's a lot of fun to be had with One Piece... if you're willing to overlook the annoying camera and an incomplete story.- PlaySense

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

Its deep and engaging combat system is very much worth experiencing, though a lackluster single player campaign and clumsy visuals keep it from reaching the lofty heights Ubisoft was aiming for.- PlaySense

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.- PlaySense

Unfortunately, Gravity Rush 2 doesn't compare to the original. It's opening hours are way too slow and the story lacks substance, failing to hold our interest throughout its runtime. The game's still a lot of fun and the open world is dripping with atmosphere, yet it lacks the magic that made the first game so memorable.- PlaySense

If you love this franchise, you will undoubtedly enjoy your time here. Gameplay-wise there are many similarities to Yakuza. The over the top action sequences and decent voice acting really add to the overall quality of this game. The game does suffer from lengthy load times and the available special moves could use some more variation - a criticism that applies to combat in general.- PlaySense

We're still waiting for EA to reinvent the wheel and shock us with a refreshing take on virtual football. And while we're doing that, we can enjoy FIFA 22, which once more offers more of the same, adding some tweaks and an extra layer of graphical fidelity. The latter is the main attraction this time, thanks to the brand new HyperMotion technology.- PlaySense

The world you enter is beautiful and interesting, which makes it a pleasure to explore. In addition, the various gunfights are very intense and exciting, and the game has a lot of content. At the same time, it is at times very monotonous, and it is also somewhat limited in terms of variety. This makes it a title very similar to other open world games from Ubisoft, so in that respect Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is not very innovative.- PlaySense

As fun as brain trainers can get. The lack of offline multiplayer options and some control issues, however, keep Smart As... firmly grounded in mediocrity.- PlaySense

The game looks and feels nostalgic with its 2D gameplay and challenging gameplay. However, the endless grinding and re-using of level design eventually make it an incredibly repetitive and overall tedious experience.- PlaySense

The gameplay is what really stands out. This is because you can be incredibly creative with the build you create, which can provide endless variety. In addition, the soundtrack is great, the bosses are good and there is plenty to do. All things that make the game worthwhile. At the same time, the story is not very interesting and there are technical issues that sometimes get in the way of enjoyment. A bit of a shame in an otherwise decent gaming experience.- PlaySense

Where did the space shooters go? Well, Strike Suit Zero brings them back. If you don't mind the story being boring, the lack of checkpoints a bit frustrating and the absence of decent voice acting annoying, you'll be fine.- PlaySense

Pacific Drive brings something new to the survival genre and does a fine job of it in itself. It is atmospheric, at times stressful and the many ways to upgrade provide a reason to keep playing. As do the story missions. But with these positives, there are also some negatives to note. For example, the duration of each run is very unpredictable which can be inconvenient for your planning and you have to go through the same areas every time you want to achieve something new. At many times the game is also too dark, making it difficult to see what you are doing, and the very bland controls can be frustrating at times.- PlaySense

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

Definitely the prettiest game on the PlayStation 4 so far, Killzone: Shadow Fall unfortunately lacks a bit of substance. The multiplayer is absolutely worth your time, though singleplayer isn't very interesting. As Sony's PS4 flagship, we expected more.- PlaySense

Basically the same experience as it is on PS3 and PS4 predecessors, but the game is a bit too dark and the camera too far away from the action to call this a really successful port to Sony's handheld system. It's still worth buying if you haven't played any of the other versions, though.- PlaySense

Interesting concept, lacklustre execution. A good story with a neat soundtrack, brought down a bit by a mediocre script and a frankly rather useless segment called 'The Beyond'.- PlaySense

It's good, not great. Knack is the icon of the PlayStation 4, but makes an uncertain impression in his first adventure. As a platformer, Knack is a lot of fun, but also very basic. It's addicting, to be sure, but an uninteresting story and a lack of both variation and innovation keep the game from earning a truly high mark.- PlaySense

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.- PlaySense

Farming Simulator 19 mostly offers more of the same, so experienced players should know what to expect. Technically, the game's made some progress, with a more beautiful world and less bugs to get annoyed by. You won't find much innovation, though.- PlaySense

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.- PlaySense

The story of this game is worthwhile, as it sheds a new perspective on the famous detective. In addition, there is a nice environment, which is complimented with great gameplay and good audio/voice acting. That said, the fight scenes get boring quickly, frame drops are noticeable and the graphics are not of the highest order. The game also lacks structure due to the many side missions, but it is nevertheless an adventure that will entertain you.- PlaySense
