Mario Tennis Aces is a great game which everyone can enjoy. Even for those who do not game that often. It is great that there is a Story Mode, though it actually still feels a bit unbalanced. You can play with a bunch of characters and there is a great deal of content to enjoy.

Syberia for Switch is a beautiful game with a great story. While this game sometimes looks dated, this is a classic that you should play.

DiRT 4 brings the best of all its predecessors to one game. It's just arcade-y enough while still giving fans of simulators what they want. All in all, it is the perfect rally experience out there at the moment.

The first DLC ever of this size, and Rockstar succeeded in creating a must have for every GTA-fan.

Gods & Kings is a very complete expansion pack. The added espionage and the new and improved religion system make this game a lot better. Civilization V has become a lot deeper with this DLC and almost all of the original problems have been fixed.

With a fun story and a great setting, Assault on Dragon Keep is Borderlands 2’s best DLC yet.

MachnineGames delivers with this port of one of 2024's greatest games, and fixes some of the bugs that detracted from Indy's fantastic adventure the first time around. This is the definitive way to play Indiana Jones and the Great Circle on a console.

Shovel Knight is the ultimate retro game. It takes all the good parts of old classics and improves on it with current technology. Truly a joy to play.

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor sports an excellent return for Cal Kestis and his adventures to escape the grasp of the Empire. Thanks to a ton of new additions in both gameplay and customization, you've never felt closer to being a Jedi than in this game even though the performance could've been better.

South Park The Fractured But Whole is a great RPG that not only plays great, but also recreates the unique atmosphere of the show without any flaws. The game is a blast to play on the go, but at home you'll also enjoy every second of this journey.

The fourth episode of Tales from the Borderlands is the best one: a hilarious shootout with Rhys, a story you want to explore and that typical Borderlands humor. The emotional aspect doesn't work quite as well here, but it still holds up.

This is a great Tekken game that offers a lot of online and offline modes which will keep you entertained for months. Furthermore there are many characters to choose from and with them you can do tons of combinations during the fights.

There's no denying Tears of the Kingdom is played best on the Nintendo Switch 2, but the new edition can be somewhat frustrating thanks to the Zelda Notes app that isn't as functional as you would like it to be.

Deathloop proves that the concept of Groundhog Day also works in games. The story is phenomenal, mostly thanks due to the excellent voice-acting. Arkane focuses again on stealth, but also gives the play more options for all-out warfare, with a plethora of guns, special powers, and upgrades. The stay on Blackreef Island can get a little bit repetitive after multiple time loops, but the island itself is beautifully crafted, and the ending makes it all worth it. Arkane once again hit it out of the park.

Eagle Flight could be the best PlayStation VR game out there. The controls are great and the graphics could have been stolen from a painting. If only Eagle Flight had more multiplayer content.

There is finally a great classic role-playing game for the pc, and we love it. Thanks to Kickstarter's funds Larian Studio's has made a game that everybody will remember. Despite some unhandy mistakes Divinity is the RPG you should buy this year.

After the not-so-original New Super Mario Bros games, it is lovely to see Mario and his friends in an adventure that is truly worth playing. The vast range of power-ups is great, especially the catsuit which makes Mario not only adorable looking, but also handy. His claws are an awesome extra to fight the fun, new enemies. It is a pity that this game is a bit easy, but you can challenge yourself by playing co-op with annoying friends or go on a green star hunt. It's not Mario Galaxy, but very surprising and of very high quality like we know of that plumber.

Hearthstone, the newest card game from Blizzard, will keep you hooked for hours thanks to the amazing presentation and the tactical, deep gameplay. This is free to play done right.

Like an insane stunt pilot in the Red Bull Air Race, World of Warplanes manages to leave an excellent impression. But Wargaming has to keep proving themselves in the future if they want us to remain impressed. It's easy to find great satisfaction, however, when you roam the game's skies with Ride of the Valkyries on the background, while you're bringing death and destruction in your own personal aircraft.

Injustice 2 is a worthy sequel to Injustice Gods Among Us. With improved graphics, a great story and even more features to keep you busy. Injustice 2 is highly recommended and excels as a fighting game.

Pullblox is a must have for the 3DS. The simplistic concept results in a large amount of phenomenal puzzles, easily keeping you busy for a while. After that you can go nuts in the great level-editor. It's a shame that your created levels can't be shared online, though!

Dead Space 2 is a great game that raises the bar for all survival horror games to come. Buying this game will be one of your first great investments of 2011.
