    Cuphead is a must have for hardcore gamers who love cartoons. It looks like Popeye or Mickey Mouse from the '30s, but don’t let it fool you: the game is very hard. It's a pity that you can't finish the game on easy though, but still you should pick it up.

    F1 2010 is a racing game that includes the entire Formula 1 license. It knows how to deliver the complete experience of Formula 1 and is without doubt the best of its kind.

    Candy Crush Saga is as addictive as it is frustrating. The game starts off easy, but soon gets difficult and very challenging. The downside the game has is that you keep on getting Facebook messages from friends.

    Dance Central 3 really is the best dance game for Kinect. It doesn't matter whether you're a good dancer or not, Dance Central 3 is for everybody and it's especially nice at parties.

    Ridger Racer is back and manages to impress with some great gameplay and a brilliant soundtrack. The City Creator is bigger then ever, yet is only at its best when you've finished the game. The tons of new possibilities are great but they make the game a bit cluttered, giving you the feeling that you aren't accomplishing much. The multiplayer has also been expanded and will keep you entertained for many hours to come.

    Capcom redefines the fighting game genre once again with Street Fighter V. The game looks awesome and the characters are great. The battles are dynamic and far more balanced than before. Despite minor flaws, this is a must buy.

    World of Final Fantasy offers fans a ton of nostalgia. The RPG turn-based combat style combined with the gotta catch 'em all element proves a golden mix for this RPG. And the hyper-deformed sauce just completes this. A must buy for the fan!

    If you're on the lookout for a great flight game, look no further. H.A.W.X. 2 is the best game of its kind and will keep you wannabe pilots busy for weeks to come.

    PES 12 is a great soccer game that shouldn't be compared to FIFA 12. PES 2012 is different and is a lot better than other recent games in the franchise.

    Hitman Episode 6 is a worthy ending to a great first season. Hokkaido is a breathtaking place with lots of diverse methods to kill your targets. While the ending does give us soms answers storywise, it also leaves room for more future content.

    RiME is so sad, but so beautiful at the same time. It has similarities to The Last Guardian but plays out way better. RiME is a must-buy if you like puzzles and a nice adventure.

    The excellent platforming and the 3D images ensure a creative mixture between the old and new Mario. Maybe a less agile Mario than we're used to, but that has it's charm in some ways. Thanks to the extremely varied environments and the succesful usage of 3D, Super Mario 3D Land is by far the best Mario game for the 3DS.

    Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition is an amazing game thanks to its fantastic battle system, brilliant story and loveable cast of characters. While the graphics have been upgraded, they still aren't that great in comparison to the other consoles. As a Switch exclusive it is, however, one of the essential JRPG's to play.

    Prey has become a great reboot. A breathtaking setting, well-thought plot twists and intriguing lore take sci-fi to a higher level. While borrowing a myriad of elements from other franchises, Prey also shows its own face. However it still has quite a few bugs.

    Is TERA worth your time? It depends. Can you handle an endless barrage of generic quests? If the answer is 'yes', you'll find yourself emmerged in a fantastic world. Even though TERA follows a path that is well known in the MMO-handbook, it manages to lift the genre to a higher level in some ways. One of of those ways is the nearly perfect combat system, Also, fans of PvP elements will find a heavenly experience in this absolute pearl of an MMO.

    2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa is a great footie game. However it's more an update from the previous FIFA game than a whole new game.

    Deathtrap is a fresh combination of an action RPG and a Tower Defense-game. The game is quite challenging with a steep learning curve, but repays that with great mechanics, 4-player co-op and a cheap price.

    Bayonetta has become a very good game which offers plenty of diversity. Everything looks good and the game contains a fine dose of humor. Put this game on the list of Kratos and Dante. This game is a must have for everyone!

    Total War Warhammer 2 is a worthy successor. A better story, Skaven and Lizardmen as interesting factions and graphics to drool over. Without doubt one of the best fantasy RTS games of the moment. Unfortunately the same problems from TWW 1 return as well.

    Sword Art Online Hollow Realization is an almost perfect imitation of an MMO. The game feels like one, but is more JRPG than MMO. There is tons of stuff to do in a massive world. And it is lots of fun for fans, but also for newcomers to the franchise.

    This one beats, without a doubt, Disney Infinity and this one is even better than the previous two Skylander games. There's a new a idea of combining body parts. So you can mix characters and it's awesome.
