    Overlord II is an entertaining game for everyone who wants to play something different. Graphically Overlord II is such a strong game that you almost start to believe you're in the middle of a a fairytale, which is of course a good thing. The controls work great, there's plenty to do and the game contains a lot of humour.

    PROTOTYPE became a good game, but unfortunately can't completely satisfy it's high expectations. The graphics aren't that good, luckily there is enough action and a nice gameplay to cover up the shortcomings. In the end, everyone must have played this game at least once.

    Again EA brings you a good title with My Sims Party. The graphics are fine and there is nothing to complain about when it comes to sound effects. Especially the younger gamer will be busy for many hours playing this title, but for the older people this is a nice game as well.

    Rabbids go Home is a very nice game which unfortunately scores bad on the graphics. Still Rabbids go Home is fun to play thanks to the nice gameplay and the overload of humour.

    Co-op at its best. Army of Two: The 40th Day is great co-op game. Unfortunately, the game fails at other aspects, therefore it hasn’t become an absolute must-have title.

    Loads of blood and body parts are flying around from the beginning until the end of the game. Despite the errors, the game looks very decent and plays fine. Before you know it, you're playing for hours and don't want to stop. This game is a must have for every action gamer!

    Nuclear Dawn combines two great genres and is simply a good game. Nuclear Dawn provides the 'missing link' between FPS and RTS gamers which hasn't been seen in a long time. If you're looking for a good shooter and if you are prepared to use your brains, then this just might be the right game for you.

    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 The graphics are a bit outdated and the movements of the characters don't always feel natural.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.

    Despite of a significant weakness in the controls, it's a title Wii owners should definitely have played. Graphically the game looks good and the sound is actually pretty decent. In short: The Overlord has returned to tell us the story about the rise of his existence, although he stutters while doing this.

    Jump Start Pet Rescue is an educational game for very young gamers. The game offers enough variation and is therefore a decent title. Parents don't need to hesitate: this is a good game for their son or daughter.

    A great new entry in the MXGP series that uses the additional power and features of the PlayStation 5 to eradicate load times while introducing haptic feedback and improved graphics. While all expected features career, time attack, quick mode playground, and inline) are there, they do feel a bit bare-bone, especially the new track editor.

    Tales of Vesperia Definitive Edition is a pleasure comeback of one of the most beloved Tales Of-games ever made.

    Q.U.B.E. is a true puzzle game that has great gameplay but you'll never really get motivated to reach the ending because of a lack of story. The game also has a few bugs and the darkest rooms feel like a lazy way to let you do the same puzzles over again. Still, if you're looking for a puzzle game with some nice graphics and at times very difficult puzzles, look no further.

    Get Even delivers a action-packed story that is told through stealth gameplay and lots of dialogues. With a soundtrack that tries and succeeds to do something different, and enough variety in gameplay, Get Even mostly succeeds in delivering an epic story.

    Obsidian's Pentiment is not for everyone, but this RPG does offer a fascinating look at the religious and political unrest of the early sixteenth century. A variety of backgrounds and a time limit that doesn't allow you to pursue every plot thread in one playthrough, it also offers good replayability. Unfortunately, it also somewhat overstays its welcome when the last hours repeat a lot of what you already know. The Switch port isn't flawless, but will suit you just fine if this is your platform of choice.

    The Pathless is a really entertaining game from the creators of Abzû. The game lets you explore a vast world with a huntress and her eagle. Saving the world is no terrible job since the world is truly amazing, but the lack of enemies and the lack of unlockables don't really invite you to do. Where everything in the game is balanced really good from the puzzles to the boss fights, you get the feeling something is missing eventually. The game is great but could be much, much more than this.

    Come on Sony, where is the online multiplayer? Shame on you. The game is fun, has a great track creator, plays nice but there's no online multiplayer which is a bummer.

    This is a game which offers a lot of morbid but funny gameplay. There are a lot of levels and there certainly is challenge included, but the game never gets memorable. Still you will enjoy this for a while.

    Singularity is better then the average shooter and has a lot of fun to offer. Thanks to a decent singleplayer campaign and a fine multiplayer, you won't regret spending your time on this game.

    Children Of Arkham is great for anyone who is into Batman or Telltale, or both. The story gets deeper and it focuses more on Bruce as a person, which is refreshing. However, the episode suffers from framerate drops and the QTE's still aren't great.

    Immortals Fenyx Rising A New God DLC focuses on the trials from the Greek gods but it could be more than just this. The mount from the main game almost got forgotten and the fights get little to no attention. Still, A New God offers 10 hours of extra puzzle-gameplay next to the main game. The puzzles are much more challenging than those in the main game too. Only for this fact, the content is a must-have for puzzle fanatics that wanted more. The fighters will have to wait for the other DLC packs to release.

    Marvel's Spider-Man 2 isn't the spectacular game it is on PS5. Bugs and crashes plagued the launch, and while the game is now stable enough, it isn't always on par with the PS5 version. When it works, though, the game sings thanks to the great story and amazing gameplay.

    Although it offers nothing new, Söldner X-2 Prototype is a great little schmup for PS Vita. The (60fps!) graphics are nice and it plays just like you'd expect. A little repetitive but the extra challenges do add replay value to an otherwise short game.

    Sribblenauts Megapack combines two strong games for both young and old. The game ask for your creativity and challenges you to find original solutions. Advise is to play the games on Switch instead of PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

    With Transistor, Supergiant Games delivered yet another successful game. It looks absolutely stunning, has a great soundtrack and a very tactical combat system. To bad it's a bit tedious.

    Despite the fact not everything is perfect about the game, MotoGP 13 turns out to be very realistic at some points. The fans will eat it up and new players will have a good challenge.

    Anthem is an ambitious project and it paid off for BioWare in some measure. The gameplay is spectacular, the story is good and has a challenging endgame. But annoyances sometimes spoil it and it's up to BioWare to fix those problems for the future.
