Strider returns victorious. Great boss fights, responsive controls, interesting level design... those are only some of the elements that make this side-scroller such a success.

The compelling story makes this sequel worthwhile in its own right, and what complements this is the fantastic and varied gameplay. With plenty of content, Lost Judgment is well equipped to keep you entertained for a long time, and last but not least, we must not fail to mention the audio, which is top notch. The Dragon Engine however does show its age a little, but that's fine.

More realistic. More emotional. Less predictable. Sounds great, doesn't it? It is.

A great puzzle experience with brilliant level design and a unique visual style. If you like this sort of game, you can't miss out on the Swapper.

If the franchise's wonderful conversion to 2,5D is the exceptionally juicy cake, the engaging story, colourful worlds and strong level design form the delicious layer of icing on top.

A tribute to the eighties, Hotline Miami impresses with a fantastic soundtrack, dito graphics and a fair amount of challenge to keep hardcore gamers busy for days to come.

A game that needs to be played in an old school manner and -ironically- is all the better for it. The story is the main focal point and luckily the game does not disappoint in this department. In fact, we feel everybody should experience it - it really is that special. From an audiovisual standpoint there is nothing worth noting in particular but don't be deceived: Forgotten Anne is an original and beautiful title that deserves every minute of your time.

This game once started as a great MiNi and is now transformed into a great title for the PlayStation Vita. It's an addicting an challenging experience that will stay with you for a long time. An annoying bug may temper the excitement somewhat, but ultimately, that is of little importance.

If all you ever dreamt of is to starr in a Ghibli movie – to be cartoonified and just be able to control whatever happens – you shouldn’t miss out on Ni No Kuni. It features extensive gameplay amidst an atmospheric world topped with a compelling story. It has everything a modern RPG needs to satisfy a gamer’s every need.

We've been waiting for it for a long time, but The Witness is ultimately worth it. The puzzles offer a lot of challenge and the wonderfully-realized, yet mysterious world is a lot of fun to hang out in. If you're into the genre, you shouldn't hesitate.

After the Mortal Kombat reboot and Injustice: Gods Among Us, NetherRealm Studios again delivers with a jam-packed fighting game with interesting characters, a fantastic combat system and a truly enjoyable story mode. Keep up the good work, please.

Unparalleled gameplay makes DiRT Rally 2.0 Codemasters' ultimate 2019 rally simulator. The game offers challenging stages, the difficulty setting is variable which makes the game just a tad more accessible this time around. The audio is fantastic, the cars look great and we could praise this game for pretty much everything it does. More locations would have been nice but don't let that stop you from buying the best rally game that is currently out there.

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.

SEGA strikes again, with a refreshing take on the popular Yakuza franchise. The great story (with decent English-speaking voice actors this time!) will draw you in and the engaging detective gameplay will keep you playing for a long time to come. The graphical glitches are a shame, though... But don't let that stop you from buying Judgment.

We had to wait 6 years for it, but it will be rewarded. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is bigger, better, more fun, more varied and more exciting than its predecessor. The game features gorgeous music, huge variety in gameplay and creative new abilities that open up many new possibilities. In terms of performance, the age of the handheld does begin to take its toll, for example, the performance is not optimal. In addition, the dungeons are not that special, but that is the only thing to note about an otherwise sublime game. In short: everyone who owns a Nintendo Switch must buy this game.

With the second installment, Kojima builds on the basics of the original, but also manages to surprise with a rock-solid story, memorable characters, a beautiful game world, lots of features and so on. It's Kojima all over again, resulting in a brilliant game that's absolutely worth playing, with the note that the combat feels a bit uncomfortable, but that's okay considering the overall quality is top notch.

Guitar Hero's long-awaited comeback hits every necessary mark and will have you rocking into the sunset for ages to come.

NBA 2K13 proves that soccer games are not the only ones nearing perfection. This game offers a great virtual basketball experience, with smooth controls, a strong graphical presentation and an enormous amount of content.

The fourth episode of Telltale's The Walking Dead game series delivers in the same way the others did: telling a great, emotional story and offering the player some really tough choices along the way. If you've enjoyed the previous outings, you shouldn't allow yourself to miss out on this one.

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

A remake that is outstanding on every level. The pacing is nice, the combat system is good, the story is strong, graphically it is beautiful, the soundtrack is cool and the voice-acting fine. It's a shame though that the FES and Portable content is not present, because that would have really completed the package. Also, in terms of design, the dungeons can get a bit monotonous over time, but that's literally the only 'downside'. In short, Persona 3 Reload is not something you want to miss!

Tekken 8 brings everything you desire from a new game in the franchise. A fantastic story mode, lots of options, fighters and possibilities. Fine, refreshing gameplay and good online functionalities. The few minor downsides the game has are that the character customization isn't that captivating and the rollback netcode could be just a little bit better for the perfect experience. That being said, Tekken 8 is a must have.

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

A new story, a new setting, new mini-games (which are games in themselves), a good balance between drama and humor, delightful combat, strong presentation.... It is a sample of the many positives of this game. Ryu Ga Gotoku delivers an excellent game that is absolutely worth playing. That the game puts New Game+ behind a paywall, however, is a shame, but fortunately it offers enough content to see past that snafu. Fan or no fan of Like a Dragon: a must have.

This episode continues the trend of being more interactive and the ability to react a bit more proactively. That's a good thing just like the increased amount of references to previous seasons and to the comics. Audiovisually it's in a fine shape and overall this is a fantastic episode, though not technically perfect.

Well, what do you know? Vehicles do make an excellent addition to an already great franchise.

NBA 2K takes a couple of steps forwards with subtle improvements, beautiful graphics and a huge amount of content.

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