    A great, deep and entertaining baseball sim without a tutorial to welcome newcomers.

    Duels of the Planeswalkers 2013 offers a really good entry for players who are new with Magic the Gathering. Even though new players will enjoy this title, the more experienced players will also get a lot of fun out of Magic 2013. Overall It's a very addictive game and offers enough fresh content for the experienced Magic player.

    The latest game in the Killzone franchise shows that a FPS game is welcome on the PlayStation Vita. The controls are magnificent and the graphics are beautiful for a Vita game. However, there’s nothing better than the Killzone games on the consoles.

    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.

    Virtua Tennis doesn't take itself so seriously and that's great because gaming should be all about fun. The Kinect and Move support is pretty lame so it's best to stick with the classic controllers.

    Attack on Titan is a great game, especially for fans of the anime. The game offers fluid, fast-paced gameplay mixed with a great story. It contains enough depth and fans will not be disappointed.

    The Falconeer already was a good flying action shooter with its very own graphical style and interesting storyline that spanned over 15-20 hours. With all additions packed in the Warbird edition, the game has expanded significantly and addressed several of the earlier points of criticism. If you're interested in guiding your own giant warbird through a wonderful fantasy realm (and who wouldn't?) this game deserves your attention.

    This game is such a nice puzzle game. It's a cheap episode and it's really fun. Maybe it even gives us a little bit of a PS Vita comeback!

    Far Cry 4 is a logical successor to the third. Don't expect any ground-breaking, overwhelming visuals or a completely different story, but a shooter that does almost everything better than the competition.

    This game is really a nice platformer that you can get for a low price. The puzzles are difficult and therefore challenging but there's plenty of humor to relieve the tension. However you have to like all of the chaos and speed to fully enjoy this game.

    Armello is a great board game. You can put an amazing amount of hours into this game seeing there are varying ways you can win a match. However, on a certain moment the board will be full of enemies and what it takes to kill them is a bit annoying sometimes.

    XCOM 2 on consoles looks and feels almost as great as the pc version. The only thing is that the custcenes stutter somethimes and the loading times are a bit long. Nevertheless this is a game you must play. Especially if you like a challenge.

    NHL keeps doing the same thing every year and that is a good thing. They have a strong formula that works which they keep interesting by adding new game modes and perfecting the game even more.

    Another Professor Layton game like we know it. There is nothing much new here now the series made its way to the 3DS. Regardless the same formula used as in previous entries, Miracle Mask is an amazing game worthy of playing by any puzzle-loving gamer.

    Glass Masquerade 2: Illusions is beautifully crafted and brings hours of puzzling fun for those times you're fed up with killing and shooting. The difficulty is adequate and can be raised for the die-hard puzzlers. The resulting glass-in-lead windows are a sight. Sadly, the music is not diverse enough to keep entertaining and repeats often. Puzzlers don't have that much choice, but won't be disappointed by Glass Masquerade 2.

    Despite the fact that the Dragon flying aspect is a huge disappointment, Dragonborn still offers a lot of new, great content for Skyrim fans. New quests, new items and enemies will keep players coming back to the land of Solstheim for hours and hours.

    The price for most original game goes to Tearaway. With some amazing puzzles, fascinating enemies and a pinch of good ol’ platforming, this game is a must-have for the Vita. Only problem are the controls; a bit stiff. But still, it’s a great game.

    Don't expect a revolution in the gameplay of Tropico 5, since it may feel like more of an expansion at times. However, it's a very impressive one at that. The new era system is absolutely wonderful and the management system is more complex than ever. This, and the inclusion of a new multiplayer mode should be more than enough to pull all of you dictators back to the wonderful island of Tropico.

    Season 2 of The Walking Dead shows its first cracks. Relationships are just not that important anymore. Amid the Ruins is still a good episode though. We hope Telltale Games glues everything back together in an amazing series finale.

    The World Ends With You Final Remix brings a cool, but chaotic adventure to the Switch. The port mixes RPG with Jpop and anime in a blend of awesomeness. And it is playable by two players.

    PGA Tour 2K21 borrows a lot from its Golf Club predecessors. By adding a helpful tutorial and many aids, HB Studios have made the game accessible to newcomers, while retaining higher difficulty levels for returning golf fans. PGA Tour 2K21 is the most all-round golf game currently available.

    Whilst nog being the most revolutionary entry in the series, Hitman 3 truly does deliver the best the new trilogy has to offer. With six stunning and diverse locations, plenty of opportunities to kill and all the finetuning, Hitman feels better than ever before. There are some minor technical flaws and bugs, but overall Hitman 3 is a worthy ending of this modern Hitman-era.

    Dragons Crown looks and feels great in 4K. It offers a nice blend of beat 'em up and RPG and keeps you busy for more than 20 hours. The only real downside is the online multiplayer which unlocks nearly at the end of the game.

    A solid new title in the Bit.Trip series. The game feels and plays like a Bit.Trip game, despite the new graphical style. In short: Bit..Trip Presents... Runner 2: Future Legend of Rhythm Alien is a great title if you have a lot of patience. If you don't have a lot of patience, it is better to skip this game.

    Third time is the charm for Hyrule Warriors, because with its release as Hyrule Warriors Definitive Edition it's better than ever. The game provides a lot of content for players to enjoy and includes enough characters to keep it diverse.

    Quarrel is the prefect combination of Risk and Scrabble. You can pick it up whenever you want and still be able to kick some lexical buttocks. The only problem us Dutch gamers have, is that the game is only playable in English. A problem we're willing to overlook for mere 400 Microsoft Points.

    Ghosts is good and bad at the same time, it still feels as Call of Duty and is therefore a good first-person shooter. But the game also lacks real innovations and is playing too safe.
