A great game with such a simple concept. It does what few games are able to do: it’s easy to learn, but it’s hard to master. The only thing that isn’t good is that you can’t view the levels before you begin.- XGN

Middle-earth Shadow of War is a perfect sequel to Shadow of Mordor. It doubles down on the strengths with a better Nemesis-system, excellent combat system and new areas. The story is not the best out there, but if you liked SoM, you'll love this.- XGN

Layers of Fear is a perfectly well-made horror-adventure game. The feeling that you get from playing is mostly fear. Get ready for one of the best game of the horror genre.- XGN

Judgment is the best Yakuza game ever...except for the fact that, formally, it is not a Yakuza game. Still, there are enough new gameplay elements to lure new players in, and enough old references for returning fans. Don't miss it.- XGN

If you are looking for a coop game that is stressful and fun as well, you should definitely play Moving Out 2. Moving was never been more fun or do we need to say chaotic? Teamwork makes the dreamwork.- XGN

Forza Motorsport 5 is a decent racer. Turn 10 does a lot of good things in their first game for the next-gen consoles, like the handling of the cars and variety in game modes. Unfortunately they miss the mark in game content - like tracks and cars - and modes like the multiplayer are disappointing. This is a pity, because it leaves a stain on an otherwise amusing race game.- XGN

Hitman: Absolution is compelling to passionate fans as well as new players. It is the assassination game everyone was waiting for. Move over Corvo and Connor, it is Agent 47's time to stand on top.- XGN

Wolfenstein: The New Order is a decent first-person shooter. The graphics are a bit outdated but the atmosphere is really nice. And besides, what's more fun than killing Nazis?- XGN

The King of Fighters XV is a great fighting game and SNK did a good job on bringing it up to par with the likes of the competition. However the game has a fantastic roster, great gameplay and is looking fantastic, there are still a few things missing. You can't really unlock things, there aren't as many modes as you would wish and the story just isn't that long. If those things were better, then the game which already kicks ass, would bring even the greatest of competitors on its knees.- XGN

Yakuza 3 has become a decent game. The graphics are a bit outdated and the movements of the characters don't always feel natural. The story on the other hand is truly amazing en there is plenty to explore in virtual Japan.- XGN

EA Sports succeeds with the first FIFA game on the PS Vita. The footie looks fantastic, plays the same as the console versions and has a lot of content. It's just a pity that the game uses gameplay from FIFA 11.- XGN

Doom Eternal: The Ancient Gods part 1 continues where Eternal left off, which is exactly what id Software was supposed to do to make it a success. All the good elements from Eternal with a few nice additions make The Ancient Gods part 1 a must-have for fans of Doom.- XGN

Nintendo and Team Ninja have created a beautiful Metroid game that digs deeper into the past of Samus. This is without a doubt one of the best Wii games of 2010.- XGN

Dungeon of the Endless is an addicting turn-based tower-defense that will bring many hours of non-stop random generated dungeon exploring to the player.- XGN

The Vita version of Street Fighter X Tekken is identical to the console version. Ergo, if you have one of the console versions, this version does not add anything significant and is not worth the purchase. Though if you do not have one of the console versions, the Vita version is a great alternative.- XGN

EA Sports MMA certainly is based on a good foundation but Electronic Arts will need some more time to optimize the formula. Add another year of practice and UFC Undisputed will need to watch its championship belt.- XGN

A Hat in Time is not a perfect experience, but it is one of the most lovingly made games this year. If you want more platforming after completing Super Mario Odyssey you should definitely give A Hat in Time a go.- XGN

Aside from being a way to easy game with some lag during the online modes, Dead or Alive: Dimensions offers a solid experience. The graphics are very good, even in 3D, and the Chronicle Mode is a fun addition.- XGN

This DLC offers more of what made Dishonored great, though it focuses on action over stealth and tells a weak story.- XGN

Chime is a funny game. There are only five different songs in the game, but they are all perfect. When you get caught by the hypnotic flow of Chime, you'll be playing this game for hours and hours.- 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

Even though Counter-Strike: Global Offensive doesn't bring many new things to the table, it's still one of the best, pure tactical shooters out there. This is the perfect time to get to know the world famous series, and even for veterans it's worth a purchase. You get a whole lot of gameplay for a low price.- XGN

Though LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes does not have many levels in its storymode, the large open world that is Gotham City is a very pleasant feature. There are tons of golden bricks to collect, red bricks to buy and villains to search for. And it is just as nice to go on a discovery trip in the open world as it is to play the levels and collect everything to get to that 100% completion mark.- XGN

This game looks good and is nice to play but why has this game been released on 3DS? It would have been a better idea to release it on Switch (with coop support).- XGN

Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe is a joy to play, particularly in co-op, as two players can spot more secrets than one. However: co-op is also the game's greatest weakness as everything revolves around player one: it's a dated approach to co-op compared to newer games that treat all players as equal participants. Thankfully, improved graphics and great additional content make this new version of Return to Dream Land truly "Deluxe".- XGN

Little Nightmares is an awesome game which puts you in a genius story and ambiance. It will make you excited about the very next moment. The game has a lot of creativity in it, with interesting puzzles. The only real cons are some technical problems.- XGN

This a game you can play for hours. And if you have the Wii U version as well you can transfer your data. That's a nice option to use. But the title is also a little bit outdated. We've seen it all before three years ago.- XGN
