    SOCOM: Special Forces has left us with mixed feelings. The singleplayer doesn't live up to today's standards but the varied multiplayer and co-op modes save this game from its doom.

    Yoshi is an awesome character and he will always remain that. However, New Island is more suitable for kids then adults. The levels are nice, but too easy, which is a pity.

    Enigmatis would've been great for a mobile title to play on the get-go. For a console-based game it lacks quality in voice acting and plot, which is ultimately what a point and click game should focus on, given the absence of ''real'' gameplay.

    The Last Guardian offers some nice puzzles. However the gameplay mechanics are too outdated. Therefore, the game is not as good as it could have been.

    Bury Me My Love offers some nice art and a good, realistic story with some technical problems. It locks up sometimes but if you can forgive it's flaws there is much enjoyment to be had. Mostly because of how relevant the story is in this day and age.

    Are you looking for a twin stick coöp shooter, here it is. Assault Android Cactus Review is fun to play and also difficult.

    Even though the graphics and controls can’t compete with its console brother, MLB 13 on Vita still offers a fun and deep baseball sim.

    I Am Setsuna seems to come straight from the classical JPRG genre. The game looks amazing and the gameplay is very smooth. The lack of length is therefore a real pity.

    When Vikings Attack! is a fun game at first but gets repetitive very quickly. It is a fun snack in a holiday season dominated by triple A games. Nothing more though.

    Sniper Elite V2 Remastered is not the game for you if you want bombastic graphics. But if you want to shoot enemies online from great distances with a friend, this is the game to play. The game is a bit short and has a few flaws, but the fun is there.

    This point and click games excels in its art style and different puzzles. However, the difficulty of the puzzles and the voice acting is not as good as to be hoped for.

    With Episode 5 of the Telltale Minecraft series they are setting up a good base for the next three episodes when it comes to the storyline. All they need to do now is come up with a proper villain, not abandon storylines and ideologies and make the quicktime events interesting and Telltale with have something good on their hands.

    This is a nice beat 'em up title with four player co-op support, but it isn't really special. Most frustrating is the bad save system, like it was 20 years ago.

    It's a nice Assassin's Creed game on a handheld but the game is far from perfection. But playing as a woman is cool, that must be said. Therefore Assassin's Creed Liberation is worth buying.

    This DLC offers more of what made Dishonored great, though it focuses on action over stealth and tells a weak story.

    Spore Hero has become a good game which also looks nice. However the game is too easy and therefore only fun for children.

    Aliens vs. Predator is a worthy title in the franchise. The atmosphere is nice and it's a lot of fun to play as Alien, Predator or Marine. But only this possibility is not enough for the game to rise above it's competitors.

    Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 is a nice superhero game which, despite the flaws in graphics and audio, still get's a good score because of the great gameplay and replay value.

    Hydrophobia Prophecy is a challenging and original game that takes the use of water to a whole new level. Unfortunately there are some annoying downsides, like the over usage of cut scenes and the often terrible voice overs.

    United Front does its best to be different. More visuals in the multiplayer maps, different zombie mechanics and a playful amount of randomness in the first stage of Operation Supercharge. A step forward, but still not everything falls into the right places.

    Worms 2: Armageddon is not different from the other Worms games. It works very nice and it looks great, but it is a shame that Team 17 didn't create something new.

    Bound by Flame isn't the best RPG that the industry has to offer. But underneath the rough edges there's still a surprisingly enjoyable game.

    Book of Spells gives us the first opportunity to play with Sony's new Wonderbook. Although the game has its flaws it surely proves that the book works excellently as a controller. That's why we can't wait to see what other titles might be coming.

    Disintegration a great game that tries new things and that should certainly be praised in a world full of sequels. The combination of a first-person shooter and real-time strategy game works well in general and is super cool to play with. Its difficulty is all over the place however, which can be a pain sometimes since the weapons don't have the weight you should be expecting.

    World War Z is the new third-person shooter from Sabre Interactive. Gear up to fight the gigantic horde of zombies. Travel around the globe to uncover multiple storylines.

    If you've played other entries in the series and just want to experience some cool lore about the world, Yakuza 3 Remaster is the game for you. It's a game all about fanservice, but also the one you can skip if you don't want to retreat familiar waters. If you're new to the series though, this one might not be for you.

    This game is really strange and has a main character who likes weird stuff, sex, jokes, blood and more. It's actually a Wii-game in High Definition so not an entirely new game. It's funny to play but doesn't offer anything special.

    ShootMania Storm is a shooter in every inch of the game. To get the best out of this game it is advisable to play with a group of friends, since the game is heavily focused on eSports and teamplay. ShootMania Storm lacks a few features like voice-chat and outdated graphics. Despite that, it is a great game for people that just want to play a fastpaced shooter.

    Thrones of Britannia has the potential to entertain for hours, if you're able to look past its flaws. A very decent strategy game, but Creative Assembly has the possibility to make it great.

    Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games is a fun game which will put a smile on your face. Don't expect too much of it, all you have to do is expect the fun you'll have with it.
