MotorStorm: Apocalypse is a fine racing game. The singleplayer doesn't live up to its expectations, but the multiplayer makes it all better. It's one big spectacle, and you don't get bored from a good thing like that.- XGN

Capcom Arcade Stadium is a really cool collection of games from the past. All of the games can be played together with friends. There really is only one downside and that's the fact you can't play together online.- XGN

Bakugan: Champions of Vestoria is a more than decent brawler that brings some interesting new ideas and mechanics to the brawls. Having your Brawler run around the battlefield chasing energy pads is a clever way to activate the player during battles. While the Story Mode tells a decent story, it isn't challenging enough to force you to use every possibility and variation available.- XGN

Bravely Default II returns to what gamers loved about the first installment while using the better hardware to upgrade the graphics. The return of the Brave/Default system, a wide variety of jobs, and the many interesting, outspoken characters are offset by quite a difficulty spike in story-related fights which too often require extensive grinding.- XGN

This army-themed game runs very smoothly. It is easy to quickly start and end a game, although the controls are something to get used to. It is advisable to give this game a chance, because there is more to it than the funny animation style and sepia colors. For example, a very pleasant system for leveling up, which is typically Vlambeer.- XGN

Pilotwings Resort really takes its benefits from the 3D capacities. Because of seeing more depth, you are actually better be able to fly and land. Unfortunately it won't take long to finish the game, but it's really good.- XGN

Gears 5 offers up an amazing campaign that isn't afraid to take risks, while staying true to its core. The new Escape mode is great, just like the additions to the iconic Horde mode. It's a shame the game suffers from many technical problems.- XGN

When you are a true gameplay fetishist, The Wonderful 101 is simply a game you cannot skip. It manages to make you love gaming even more than you already do.- XGN

Enemy Within is a perfect Firaxis expansion. It still has that great tactical atmosphere from Enemy Unknown, with some fresh new additions. There are a few cons – visual imperfections- but fans of the first hour will have hours of fun with this title.- XGN

Sébastien Loeb Rally Evo tells the story of an absolute legend. Playing the game, you'll find it hard to get bored with lots of content. May not be as good as the competition, it's definitely getting close.- XGN

A solid remaster with improved graphics and mostly great gameplay. The controls aren't always mapped handily, but the gameplay remains solid. The many references to the original Pac-Man are great, but the frequent need to backtrack is not. The levels are well designed while the bosses have a lot of variety. The game isn't very long, thich means it doesn't overstay it's welcome.- XGN

Hangar 13 didn't reinvent the wheel with Mafia: The Old Country. Instead it goes back to the roots of the franchise and of the mafia, with a cinematic adventure in Sicily. The story and gameplay all feel familiar, but the execution is strong, partly due to the strong cast and memorable characters. The game does suffer from some glitches, but that doesn't ruin the fun. The Old Country feels like an 11-hour long mobster movie, with excellent pacing.- XGN

The fourth episode of Telltale's Batman story jumps right into the action. It introduces new characters and we get to fight in Arkham Asylum. All of this gets held back by limited controls though.- XGN

By adding just a third-person perspective, SMITE entirely changes the way we play MOBA. As a player you're feeling more in control over your character, which results in a more intense and better multiplayer experience.- XGN

For the RTS-fans with a PlayStation 3, Red Alert 3 is certainly worth a try. After some practise you will find out that the keyboard and mouse are not necessary anymore , and you can enjoy a fantastic RTS-game.- XGN

Super Street Fighter IV contains good changes in comparison with the previous Street Fighter game. There isn't much innovation, but for only 40 euros this is a must buy in the fighting genre.- XGN

Oreshika: Tainted Bloodlines is a fun and deep JRPG with loads and loads of content. Add to that fantastic music and graphics, a cool setting and over a hundred hours of gameplay. If only the story was a little more interesting.- XGN

Awakening brings us 3 great multiplayer maps, and one mediocre one, but does deliver the greatest zombies experience to date, making it a must have expansion for every Call of Duty player.- XGN

A game that is not as innovative as you would hope. It is very old school. Nevertheless, this is a real horror-game and we can guarantee that you will freak out. It may be old school, but it is still a very good game that will blow you away.- XGN

Mario VS Donkey is back on the Switch after it's initial release on the GameBoy Advance in 2004. With revamped graphics and improved soundtrack it also has local co-op, new unlockable time attack game mode, difficulty selection and three unlockable worlds. There's much more under the hood than just the initial "simple paint job" visible when you start up the game.- XGN

Call of Cthulhu is an interesting retelling of H.P. Lovecrafts famous story. The game mixes aspects of detective- and horror games and does it well. Fear plays an extra factor as well throughout the story. The fun only gets spoiled by some small mistakes.- XGN

You will definitely enjoy Crash Bandicoot. There are 3 games to play and you will like them even if you haven't played the original games. There are a lot of different ways to play the game, and there is a lot of humor.- XGN

This is a difficult game and therefore suited for a small audience. The learning curve is quite steep and the game expects you to have played the first game. A game for the die-hard fans and alike but not for the casual console game.- XGN

If you are looking for a magical co-op puzzlegame, then this is the game for you. This is the most beautiful and the longest entry in the series yet. There are new skills and lots of puzzels to enjoy. Whilst the battles are not so impressive, this is still a game you must have played.- XGN

Graphically there is little to criticize about MH Stories 2. The game looks well cared for and runs smoothly, except for the loading between battles and the game world. All in all, Monster Hunter 2 is a great gaming experience with a lot of variety and depth for those who need it. Gotta collect them all!- XGN

With Far Cry Primal, Ubisoft delivers an open world game that feels both thrilling and exciting at the same time. Taming beasts is awesome, but sadly the story is not. Still, the game feels like a solid new entry in the franchise.- XGN

An enjoyable experience with a nice story, but the horror-aspect is a bit lacking. The ambience makes up for a lot of small inconveniences, resulting in a worthwhile game for those who are looking for a somewhat spooky experience.- XGN
