Shadow of the Colossus gives you a fantastic scenario with impressive colossi that become very challenging later on in the game. Nevertheless, smooth gameplay still remains absent with this remake. The game can blow you away at times, but also makes you want to destroy your controller when it doesn’t deliver what you can expect from a good game these days.- XGN

Collection 1 has become a complete package, but it lacks originality. It steals components from previous Call of Duty games and that's a great shame. We expected more from this one.- XGN

Are you looking for a twin stick coöp shooter, here it is. Assault Android Cactus Review is fun to play and also difficult.- XGN

Multi-tasking is of great importance in PES 2009, so the game requires some training and time before you get the grip of it. Once you master the controls, the many game modes will offer soccer fans a lot of fun.- XGN

Life is Strange: True Colors is another good installment in the series. However, there are some flaws. The setting is far too small and you will find yourself visiting the same locations time after time. Next to that, there are some flaws in the story. Although the writing is good, the game loses focus once in a while and lets you LARP instead of looking for clues. Overall it's just a good popcorn game, but not more than that.- XGN

This game is not as good as perhaps expected. Level design is poor, the main character is not very interesting and the Metroidvania-way of exploring is maybe too difficult. However, the game gets a bit better in the end.- XGN

Puyo Puyo Tetris has a bunch of different modes, but you cannot play the classic Tetris game. You can enjoy this game with 4 players, online and offline. Puyo Puyo Tetris is a game you can pick up very easily.- XGN

Mortal Kombat X is a great game which offers a lot of modes. The Fatalities and Brutalities are gory as ever and you can enjoy the game for hours. Too bad it has microtransactions and sidetracks from its roots.- XGN

Marvel's Midnight Suns is an okay game but could've been a lot better. The game is filled with boring tasks and side missions and the main character doesn't have much of a personality or many emotions. The game would've been a lot better if the developers didn't include all the RPG aspects. However, Firaxis is clearly still great at making strategy games, because the strategic missions are the best part of this game. The storyline is great and It's cool to see the other heroes together.- XGN

Dead Space Extraction is a welcome addition to the on-rails genre. You have to like the slow pace, but the co-op mode on itself makes the game a must-have for fans!- XGN

This a decent RPG on the Wii U, but it's also a little bit outdated. The graphics are ugly and the controls doesn't work so perfectly.- XGN

Replace "City" with "Village" and you got a much better name for this last Dark Souls DLC. Where enemies, bosses and items live up to the expectations, most areas seem to fail in delivering the same message.- XGN

This is a short game wherein you explore depths to dig deeper and deeper. It's definitely the best title to download from the eShop right now.- XGN

The Last Guardian offers some nice puzzles. However the gameplay mechanics are too outdated. Therefore, the game is not as good as it could have been.- XGN

This game is a good footie for the Wii, but because of the lack of evolution and innovation it failed to be more than that.- XGN

Even if you have all platforms available, the PlayStation 4 version of Steamworld Dig is a recommendation. The steampunk western world comes more to life with those colorful graphics in combination with a decent TV. The gameplay is still as fun and relaxing as they were when this game was first released.- XGN

Lethal League is a very creative brawler that's easy to learn. The fitting soundtrack and unusual way of fighting make it a very fun game to play.- XGN

Hustle Kings is a nice game, but nothing more than that. You can have a great time by playing this game, but of course it's much more fun to play pool for real.- XGN

Mega Man 10 is on certain moments a good game, but it drops stitches as well. Furthermore, the bosses aren't all original and the soundtrack is a little bit annoying. Still the game offers enough innovation to keep you busy for hours.- XGN

Rochard is a short but good game. If you like to crack your brain a few times and also shoot bad guys, Rochard is a good option!- XGN

Vampire Smile doesn't add much to the concept of the previous game. For 800 Microsoft Points you'll get a fun sidescroller that will keep you entertained for a couple of hours, until you'll get bored with the repetitiousness of it all.- XGN

In the end, Civilization: Beyond Earth is just a really average game. Firaxis has some nice new idea's - like the tech-web and the way aliens behave -, but they don't cover the fact that the title has some flaws.- XGN

Fighting in this game really feels great, as well as the interesting conversations and the possibility to succeed in multiple missions simultaneously. Sometimes the game is not clear enough and the balance between missions and difficulty is a bit iffy.- XGN

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 improves just enough over its predecessor to keep it interesting. The new online features are a nice addition, but the rest of the game is almost the same as last year's edition.- XGN

When is a remake not a remake? Ishin at times feels like the developers cut corners by incorporating existing models from other games and the original. NPC characters and animations lack refinement and didn't get the overhaul you would expect from a remake. However, the cutscenes and the original story remains strong and the gameplay with its new use of weapons and the added team cards are solid as ever. Together, Ishin fails to rise above the average, which could have been easily avoided.- XGN

Hatsune Miku Project DIVA 2nd is a fun game if you like Hatsune Miku of the anime genre overall. If you are not familiar with Miku of not a anime fan, then the game doesn't really do anything other than recycle existing parts of rhythm games.- XGN

The cartoony Yooka Laylee and the Impossible Lair is funny experience you certainly should give a try. The game delivers lots of addictive gameplay and collectibles. This adventure isn't flawless however.- XGN

Final Fantasy VIII remastered looks better than the original in a lot of ways. While the game deserved much more love than it got, The story is great and the there are options for newcomers to make things easier. Worth it to check out.- XGN
