Dawnguard is the ideal add-on for those who still haven't satisfied their need for Skyrim. Those who seek innovation, will be disappointed however. Dawnguard is simply more of the same, plus a clumsy Vampire Lord transformation.- XGN

LEGO Rock Band has become a decent game which is especially meant for children. You can expect another tracklist then usual. The LEGO style is nice to look at for a while, but adults can better choose another music game to play.- XGN

Do you want to play in a band? Then Rock Band 4 is your best friend. It's only a shame that it's too expensive.- XGN

Steelrising is a very unique Soulslike game. The developers clearly tried to make this game as French as possible and this worked well. The combat is fun and the bosses are also uniquely designed. The story is where Steelrising missed the mark. All characters look the same and it's just very boring to go through. The checkpoints and currency could have been better. The Assist mode is the best aspect of this game, it helps newcomers to the Soulslike genre to give them the best experience possible.- XGN

NBA Jam meets most of its expectations.The game is very entertaining however it must be said that this should have been a downloadable game. The game just doesn't feel like a full retail game but remains amusing nonetheless.- XGN

One Piece Burning Blood is an easy to play fighting-game with some great graphics. Unfortunately the story mode is somewhat short and the gameplay quickly becomes repetitive after a while. It is still a great game for fans of One Piece despite the flaws.- XGN

Hitman HD Trilogy reminds us a lot of the Splinter Cell HD Trilogy. There are three great stealth games bundled on one disc, but the HD update is so non existent that it is hard to ignore how much these games have aged.- XGN

Dissidia Final Fantasy NT is an all out brawler. It exchanges a rich story for a mashup between Smash Bros and Warriors games. Although the fighting works great, the fights itself are often chaotic. The many unlockables and characters offer tons of fan service.- XGN

Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 is a cool game but the weak campaign mode tends to ruin a lot. It could be better if they improved more of the mistakes that were made in the first Ultimate Ninja Storm. The only mode is the best improvement that you will find.- XGN

AO Tennis is simply the best tennis game we have seen in years. Although it looks not that great, it offers very solid gameplay and challenges. The game does not feel like an arcade game but challenges you with a strong AI. If only all the players were there.- XGN

Fe is a game with a clear message and most of all a game that knows how to impress with a unique style. A wonderful world with pleasant music is waiting for patient gamers.- XGN

This game is fun for kids but not for full price. It is too short. But the dragons are cool and it's nice that there is a small skill tree.- XGN

Lydia is a game with two faces. One face tells you a compelling story about the heavy subject of alcoholism from the perspective of a child. The other face is a game that is short and doesn't keep the pace of how it should. As a package, it offers an interesting hour to spend, especially for the very low price at which it comes.- XGN

This a game you can play for hours. And if you have the Wii U version as well you can transfer your data. That's a nice option to use. But the title is also a little bit outdated. We've seen it all before three years ago.- XGN

This a decent RPG on the Wii U, but it's also a little bit outdated. The graphics are ugly and the controls doesn't work so perfectly.- XGN

Metal Slug 3 brings the arcade fun to the Switch. The arcade feeling is a little less though because of the infinite credits and the adjustable difficulty. But still, it stays entertaining to blast away with a friend.- XGN

Everybody's Golf VR is one of the most ambitious golf games ever made. Virtual reality gives the player the idea that he is a professional golf player.- XGN

For the current generation, FIFA 21 is certainly a good title, although the potential was so much greater. Fortunately, Career Mode fans will be served at their beck and call this year, which was necessary after years of disappointment. The development of youth players has also improved a lot this year, although it is regrettable to see that elements such as the speed of players are still too big a factor for the core gameplay.- XGN

Iron Rain is a decent spin-off which focuses on a more Western Market. Although the game has a better story driven campaign and upgrade in terms of graphics, it delivers less of a comical arcade experience than the original titles do.- XGN

The best footie is FIFA 14. PES 2014 is better than last year's version but still has a lot of problems, like framerate issues and the game is constantly loading.- XGN

Shock Troopers is a fun, action packed game which feels just right on the Switch. The game has a few downsides like the controls, but overall it is good fun. Especially when you play with a friend!- XGN

Star Fox Guard is a nice additional game, but fails to stay interesting. The gameplay mechanics are quite original and remind us of a combination between a tower defense game and Five Nights At Freddy's. Unfortunately the levels get way too repetitive.- XGN

Immortals of Aveum adds some fresh twists to the formula, but mostly sticks to the basics of the fps genre. The worldbuilding and overall presentation look great, and shooting the different kinds of magic powers feels responsive and fun. But there are some flaws that do retract from the overall experience. The story goes all over the place in terms of tone, and performance wise there is still a lot of progress to be made. In between all the 2023 heavy hitters, Immortals sadly just falls a bit flat.- XGN

Earthworm Jim is not the superhero we used to adore as a child any more. This remake has almost nothing new to offer and is not innovative enough to bring Earthworm Jim back to his former glory.- XGN

Mortal Kombat X is a great game which offers a lot of modes. The Fatalities and Brutalities are gory as ever and you can enjoy the game for hours. Too bad it has microtransactions and sidetracks from its roots.- XGN

Making your own games is quite fun, but you don’t get a lot of feedback as a developer. Despite its old-school look it is a good game. However, if it looked better it would be more attractive as a game.- XGN

Poochy and Yoshi's Woolly World is a great platformer. The cute style and entertaining gameplay make this game one of the best platformers for 3DS. It just doesn't live up to it's predecessor on Wii U.- XGN

Ghostwire: Tokyo is a thrilling paranormal rollercoaster with ups and downs. Exploring the city of Tokyo is fun and defeating your first few enemies is a blast, its flaws also become apparent very quickly. The game lacks enemy variety and the same goes for Akito's weapon arsenal. Ghostwire gets a little repetitive and sadly doesn't find a way to fix that problem before the credits roll.- XGN

Total War Arena is a very different game compared to other Total War-games, but with its fast and tactical gameplay and ten versus ten players it's a good game in its own right. Unfortunately, it's near impossible to keep playing for free and leaves a sour taste.- XGN
