    Crash 4 has all the elements of a good Crash Bandicoot game: From silly but loveable characters to challenging yet fun gameplay, it excels at giving the player tons to do and tons to see. Too bad that Toys for Bob cranked the difficulty to "Unfair and beyond", as some of the levels create some really frustrating moments in the game.

    Few are the games that actually live up to their hype. Hades is one such game. With its excellent gameplay, great soundtrack, wonderful story and great use of its roguelike elements to tell it, Hades is one of the best games of 2020. Supergiant games just gave us another banger.

    Mafia: Definitive Edition is a great way to experience one of the best crime games in recent history. Both old and new fans will enjoy the great ensemble of characters. story and soundtrack, though it's bugs can get a little annoying.

    It's the same game from last year - for better or for worse. The fact that Konami is really upfront about it is great, but they do get only one shot next year to wow us with PES 2022. In the meantime, this is what we got - and it's good.

    Nintendo could, and should have done more to make this game feel a bit more celebratory, and some omissions are weird, but this collection of games does give us three incredible games on the Nintendo Switch.

    This whole game suffers from the stains of time: The quest system feels old, it's world building can get quite flustered and messy and the graphics - while improved - still feel like an early 2010's game. They're lucky the gameplay is just too much fun.

    I think 2K needs to adapt to a new model, I believe that they need to stop launching the same game every year, and instead start to push towards updating the existing game every year. 2K21 is the best basket sim you’ll get to play, but I could’ve said the same on 2K20.

    AWE is basically more of the same.It has great action sequences and dark atmosphere. Control fans will feel straight at home. However that does not compensate on it's lack of innovation and poor puzzles. It is by no means an Alan Wake sequel but its kind of a start. AWE is a relatively short expansion that would only fit control and Alan Wake die-hard fans.

    Marvel's Avengers has it's downsides, but all in all, it's a fun looter-brawler with a wonderful single-player campaign and great combat. It's repetitiveness hampers it quite a bit and the performance issues are annoying, but it has a solid foundation to work with.

    Remember when games used to be all about fun? No weird and unnecessary story mode, no silly and over the top voice acting and dialog - just plain fun. Well, this is what Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 tried to accomplish. And wouldn't you know it - it succeeded marvelously.

    An incredible game by Thunder Lotus Games who managed to tackle one of life's greatest tragedies with amazing grace. The beautiful storytelling, combined with the slow paced gameplay simply benefit every part of this wonderful journey.

    Simply put, you are looking at the first next-gen game to come in 2020. Microsoft Flight Simulator is probably the most ambitious, grand and awe-inspiring game of the year - sometimes to it's own detriment.

    Not all its levels were created equal, but more often than not, Fall Guys delivers a fun, unique and quite often hilarious gaming experience, perfect with friends or by yourself.

    Carrion has its problems, especially in its level design and lack of a map for the player, but it succeeds in what it sets out to accomplish: creating a horror game, proper horror game, in which you are the monster.

    The battle system leaves a lot to be desired, but that's really the only bad thing I can say about this game. We waited for a really great Paper Mario game for more than a decade, and here it is.

    Rocket Arena is a nice, fun game, but the lack of content and balancing issues it has, really bring it just short of seeing its full potential utilized.

    While Mind Control Delete is a good expansion with a few clever ideas, it does fall short in some ways, mainly it's rougelike parts.

    Ghost Of Tsushima is Sony's swan song, the perfect game to wrap up this generation and a line of amazing exclusives that came out for the PS4. It encourages exploration in a unique way, and tells a story about a man who has to stand against everything he was taught, and it's definitely one you wouldn't want to miss.

    Even if some technical aspects of the game stop it from being really great, the C&C remastered collection has a lot to offer, especially if you're fans of the original games.

    A true bang (pun intended) for you buck, the Borderlands Legendary Collection boasts three games in the series, that their port to the system was handled with extreme care. It's a shame we don't get a performance mode for silky smooth plays, but what's here is great.

    The Last of Us Part II is the perfect combination of an excellent Hollywood movie with a fat budget with fun and flowing gameplay. The phenomenal writing will touch every player and won't leave an eye dry of tears. Combat and exploration are challenging and lead the player to use creativity and improvisation. A real masterpiece and a must-have for every PS4 owner.

    The epilogue is quite good, with an amazing performance by Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa as Shang Tsung, but with only 3 new characters and no other substantial bonuses, it's hard to recommend with expansion to MK11 owners. New players get the deal of their life though.

    Mafia 2: Definitive Edition is a complete mess. It's technical flaws and lack of effort hold it from being a great remaster to an otherwise fantastic game that still manages to shine 10 years later.

    Almost a decade after it's initial release in Japan, the Definitive Edition of Xenoblade Chronicles shows us, more than anything, why JRPG fans in the US were so adamant on bringing it to the states.

    Gears Tactics manages to blend the Gears of War series with a genre that was a home for such a different kind of gameplay beautifully, though its shortcomings are apparent.

    When The Wonderful 101 clicks, it's an amazing experience, though it takes time to get there with the sloppy control schemes and bad frame pacing.

    A great comeback for the series, Streets of Rage 4 is a great game, with amazing gameplay and a killer soundtrack. It's a bit lacking in the extra content department, but what IS there, is great.

    A faithful recreation of an SNES classic, Trials of Mana delivers on most fronts, though it botches it's landing in the 21th century in some places.
