    The visual style is really great and that is complimented by excellent physics together with the almost sublime gameplay. The roster is also very extensive and the feel of the franchise is no different in this new installment that every fan of the genre should play. Do take into account that the presentation in itself is somewhat simplistic and the content outside of the fighters is somewhat disappointing.

    The gameplay of this new installment, like others in the franchise, is fun, thanks in part to its engaging theme. The fact is, however, that the execution leaves quite a bit to be desired. For example, the graphics are from 10 years back, the performance is a disaster and the addition of political elements does not really work. Ignore it.

    Aloy's new adventure features a beautiful open world that invites immediate exploration. The many missions and side quests make it a delightful experience, thanks in part to the variety of enemies. In addition, the story is very compelling, but we can't ignore the fact that the game is not yet completely polished after the day one patch. There are many bugs and technical issues that can be annoying and that is a shame, but there is no doubt that the adventure in itself is more than worth it.

    Skating in 2.5D is a real pleasure with OlliOll World. The gameplay is almost perfect and thanks to the creative levels with plenty to do, the game has a high replayability. This is accompanied by a fine learning curve, an excellent soundtrack, many customization options and so on. That the story is not that interesting you have to accept, because the rest is excellent! Must have.

    The Pokémon game that we have been waiting for for years is finally here! A large gaming world full of fun references, cool and addictive gameplay, good challenges, and we could go on and on. Graphically, it's not a very pretty game and certain small things could have been better, but believe us when we say that you can easily look past that. It is the almost sublime gameplay that really stands out here. For newcomers and fans alike, this is a must-have.

    A very entertaining game in which you must roast human flesh to satisfy the wishes of the invaders on your island. It's like Overcooked, but slightly different. This is due to the dishes and the fact that you also have to kill the people before you can cook them. Completely absurd, of course, but that makes for a lot of fun. Play in co-op though, because solo is not recommended and it is a shame that the audio gets boring rather quickly, let alone the balance in extra skills which is not good enough. Points to consider, but that does not make the game less worthwhile to play with friends.

    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.

    Training your brain never hurts, and this game on the Switch provides another great opportunity to do so. The game presents you with a series of activities and although some of them can be a bit frustrating, thanks in part to the controller control (play in handheld), it does manage to bring a lot of fun thanks to its diversity and multiplayer features. Not the best game ever in the series, but it is one that will entertain you.

    Chorus is a title that flew under the radar and that's a shame, because the game does good things in certain areas. Flying the spaceship is a real pleasure, with the developer coming close to perfection in terms of control. The battles are also very intense, which is a real pleasure, but bear in mind that the pace will be somewhat disrupted later in the game. It can also get a little monotonous in the end, but don't let that stop you from giving the game a chance. You will be surprised.

    The design of this game is shown to its best advantage in a situation where the gameplay is challenging. All this in a large world with plenty to do makes Shin Megami Tensei V a successful and enjoyable title. Just be aware that the resolution is a little low and the story not very exciting. Fortunately, the gameplay makes up for this.

    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.

    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.

    Rainbow Six Extraction is a fun outing for the Rainbow Six franchise that does well with multiplayer. However, don't expect anything too special as it builds on a familiar event. Co-op play is advised, as it is the most fun and the atmosphere is also a plus, along with the challenge. At the same time, the missions are not too varied and there are some small bugs here and there. A decent game, fun to play, but nowhere very exceptional.

    Master Chief has returned, but our adventures on Zeta Halo left us with mixed feelings. The gameplay is truly phenomenal and the grapple hook, in particular, steals the show. But the game is, after an extra year of development, still not finished. The single-player is not memorable, the surroundings are repetitive and the game is on a technical level very unpolished. While we have a tremendous amount of fun with the multiplayer, 343 Industries just doesn’t meet the mark with this Halo installment.

    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.

    It's a bit too easy, but still... Pokémon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl is a wonderful reissue of a set of classic games, with lots of visual improvements and an admirable loyalty to the original titles. Worth your money.

    It's a shame Final Fantasy VII: The First Soldier doesn't really run well. The unstable online connection also doesn't do the game any favours. If not for these detriments, The First Soldier would actually make for quite a nice experience, with tons of atmosphere and decent gameplay. Again: shame.

    This compilation of franchise highlights is the ultimate nostalgia trip. There's a lot of different games here, which means you'll get a lot of mileage out of it, though the unstable multiplayer and lacklustre adversary AI keep Mario Party Superstars from absolutely crushing it.

    There's really not much to complain about here. The AI isn't perfect, but other than that, Age of Empires IV is a return to the old glory of the franchise, with deep and challenging gameplay that will keep you playing for a really long time.

    Jurassic World Evolution 2 is an absolute treat for Jurassic Park fans. It nails the atmosphere of the franchise and offers a lot of options to customize your park. However, if you're not a diehard Jurassic Park fan, you might find the management aspect a bit too limited, the visuals a bit too underwhelming and the amount of actual innovation rather disappointing.

    The franchise is back, and this time with a slightly different approach. No single player, and the focus is on large scale battles and creating your own experiences in Battlefield Portal. This works out well, as the unprecedented scale and dynamic gameplay is very good. It is also more accessible than ever before, and that is just the tip of the iceberg. Hazard Zone mode is also a valuable addition, and the possibilities with Portal are endless. All good news, but keep in mind that there will be bugs, unstable frame rates and lag. In other words, the basis is very good, but it can still use some polishing.

    Call of Duty: Vanguard contains a single-player campaign that is very promising on paper, but lacks the exciting finesse of previous Call of Duty games. On the other side, the multiplayer is fun and has a lot of good designed maps. The Zombies mode misses the mark completely with re-used assets being used from the rest of the game, simple to be filled with zombies, lacking any intriguing parts what makes zombies worthwhile. The whole game is technically a mess, but luckily the online part is fun.

    Riders Republic brings some extreme sports fun to the table that is enjoyable for a long time coming. The diverse disciplines makes it variable enough to keep engaged. However, Riders Republic suffers from technical issues. Crashes aren't uncommon, the game knows a lot of bugs and issues and also the camera can be annoying from time to time. It's a fun game, but it could've been a lot better on the technical side.

    We can't turn a blind eye to the sporadically unfair AI, but that is also the only genuinely bad thing we have to say about Forza Horizon 5, a phenomenal racing game that excels on almost every front which makes this one of the best race games to date. This is a must have: a love letter to racing and pure, unadulterated fun.

    Marvel's Guardian of the Galaxy brings you a fun entertaining adventure, where the emphasis is on the development of the various characters. This can be called successful and the gameplay plays both with exploration, which is very nice, and with combat. This is somewhat limited however, because the game lacks depth in terms of combat. Graphically it is also not perfect, but it must be said that visually it looks very neat thanks to the artistic style. This makes Guardians of the Galaxy a successful game that is definitely worth it for Marvel fans.

    House of Ashes is the best Dark Picture yet, with an interesting setting, well-developed characters, some truly harrowing scenarios and the usual creativity in the deaths department. If you liked the other ones, you'll definitely love this.

    A realistic shooter, that's more than welcome amidst all the fast-paced carnage that saturates the market, courtesy of Call of Duty and Battlefield. Slow, tactical and very much worth playing, whether you're alone or with friends. The graphics are a disappointment though, as is the weirdly inconsistent AI.

    Alan Wake Remastered is the definitive way to play Remedy's psychological horror. Its stellar action and mysterious story still hold up to this day, and a fresh coat of paint makes Bright Falls shine. With a fair price, this remaster is an absolute must for newcomers of the franchise.

    A diamond in the rough, though one that's definitely worth playing in co-op. When you're on your own, however, the lacklustre AI and the inability to progress through the game will definitely put a damper on things...
