    Blur plays like a more serious Mario Kart and will give you plenty of online fun. The singleplayer lacks variety but this shouldn't stop arcade gamers from buying it.

    Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns is a good first expansion for ArenaNet's MMO. The new Elite Specializations and The Revenant are interesting. Maguuma is an awesome place, too bad there weren't more areas to explore.

    Fat Princess Adventures is a fun game to play with friends. It is packed with humor and looks great. Unfortunately it is a bit chaotic with four players, but bores quickly when playing alone. Still it's absolutely worth your money for the quiet months.

    Move Mind Benders is without a doubt the best Move game on the market. All three puzzle games; Lemmings, Tumble and Echochrome II, are simply great. A must buy for puzzlefreaks.

    DiRT Rally 2.0 is an unforgivingly hard game, only for those brave enough to try and tackle the challenges that rally driving offer. If that's what you like, the game has much in store.

    EA Sports F1 25 brings quite a few improvements to the franchise along with an overhaul of the My Team mode. There are still some problems to be found, but in general it's the best F1 game we've had in a long time.

    The Quarry isn't perfect due to some technical flaws and quick time events that are too easy. Nevertheless, The Quarry is a joy to play thanks to a great story and a fantastic cast of characters. This is a must-play for everyone that enjoys a good horror story.

    A successful game, that certainly is going to keep you playing for a long time. The gamelay makes up for the lower quality graphics, but overall a title you certainly want to play more than once.

    Fallen Champions has some strong AI and has a lot to offer, mainly because every mission has to be played differently. Even though you'll get through it very fast, the challenging missions will keep you coming back for more. It is however a shame that there are no checkpoints to be found during the battles.

    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 The graphics are a bit outdated but the atmosphere is really nice.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?

    If you like to play tower defence games then Sanctum just might be the right game for you. It's a cheap little game that knows how to mix tower defence with a first-person shooter very well. We would however like to see some extra content, because you'll only get about five hours of gameplay out of the game at this point.

    Dead Island offers something unique, combining RPG elements with a survival horror setting. Despite a few bugs it is definitely a game you should try if you're a zombie addict like us.

    Developer Reality Pump has delivered another great RPG that forms a great successor to the original Two Worlds. Certain aspects could have used a little bit of tuning, but that won't bother the average gamer.

    This expansion is one of the best ever made for The Sims. It is not only interesting for the Sim fan, but also for the one who step out of the franchise.

    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.

    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.

    The Outer Worlds 2 is back with a healthy dose of humour and social commentary. The game doesn't really make waves in its visuals or gameplay, but the world is fun to explore and the companions fill the game with character. The new flaws also make it so every character build is different. Definitely worth the trip to Arcadia.

    Grow Home is a welcome new addition to the platforming genre thanks to the new ways it asks of players to control the character and think about the way they should traverse the world.

    Fight Night Round 4 is absolutely the best boxing title on the market right now. The controls work perfectly and it all just looks really nice. Buy this game and get ready for some punches in the ring.

    Outland is a unique platform game. The gameplay can be really hard but manages to find a good balance between difficult and nearly impossible. It has a great visual style which adds up to the fun.

    Assetto Corsa shakes up the world of racing with a before unknown realism. Although realistic, there are several factors that makes that Assetto Corsa can't totally compete with Forza and Gran Turismo just yet.

    Rise Of Iron offers players enough new content to stay interested. The new PvE missions, strikes, and raid are fun to play through. If you're into Destiny, Rise Of Iron is definitely worth your while.

    Are you looking for an arcade title where you can blow up buildings and kill countless of enemies in a campaign mode that will take around six hours to complete? Do you love screen filling explosions? If the answer is yes to both questions, then look no further, because Renegade Ops is just the right game for you.

    Each sport in Nintendo Switch Sports is enjoyable and uniquely developed. Just like its predecessors, is this a perfect game to play at parties because of the easy-to-master controls. If you're planning to play by yourself I wouldn't recommend this game, because it will feel more like a tech demo instead of an actual videogame. The new Sports Mates also lack the charming characteristics of the Mii characters, so each match will feel like you’re playing against the same boring robot over and over again.

    RIsen 2: Dark Waters looks amazing and lets you explore a massive world that feels very alive. The combat could have been better and some small errors can be annoying, but overall Risen 2 is better then its predecessor in basically every aspect.
