Homefront doesn't live up to the hype and suffers from a short campaign that will only entertain you for four hours. The graphics aren't great and the many glitches don't help either. Homefront's best points are its multiplayer and its brilliant vibe.- XGN

Sengoku is a unique strategy game that focuses more on family trees and on politics than on actual warfare. As for most strategy games published by Paradox Interactive, Sengoku is meant for the hardcore strategist and isn't very accessible for mainstream gamers.- XGN

Developer Eden Studios has put way too much time in creating a good online experience. This is probably the reason why the gameplay hasn't really improved on its predecessor. Test Drive Unlimited 2 is a good game, but can't challenge the greater racing games of our generation.- XGN

Apache: Air Assault is a great flight simulator that really knows how to show the true importance of helicopters during warfare. The controls and the gameplay won't let casual gamers join in on the fun and so Air Assault is really for those that have been playing with toy helicopters as a kid.- XGN

For a very low price you will be able to get four classic games that will make the older gamers very nostalgic. The old Mario games are as great as ever, even after almost 25 years.- XGN

The game offers a lot of puzzle pleasure and gives you a real challenge collecting all the Pokémon. Despite of a few minor disappointments, like the lack of character voices, the game is absolutely worth the price.- XGN

EA Sports brings incredible graphics and details to the UFC franchise, but the rest sadly doesn't measure up to the high standard that THQ created. The career mode lacks depth and the combat has it's flaws.- XGN

Grow Up is a more enjoyable open game than Grow Home. What hasn't changed is its incredible vistas and sense of wonder when on top of some strange mountain stuck in the sky.- XGN

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.- XGN

The Jetstream Sam DLC isn't the best content Platinum Games delivered so far. Playing with Jetstream feels good and offers a different playstyle that is really enjoyable. However, the environments and enemies are practically all copied from the main game. The upgrade system is also gone, which makes this DLC very weak on it's own.- XGN

That's You is a casual game which offers a guarantee for fun. That is if you play offline and with more than two players. Playing online or with less players will not be as much fun. Still a great demonstration of the new PlayLink app.- XGN

Code Name: S.T.E.A.M. is a strange game. On one hand it is a great portable strategy title, with a fun comic book style. On the other hand, however, it takes ages to complete a match, simply because you need to wait between turns.- 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

Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon is a blast to play, thanks to it's intriguing story, immersive gameplay and gorgeous visuals. It is a pity that there is not a lot of new gameplay to be found, but still the whole package succeeds to deliver.- XGN

Final Fantasy Explorers is a cool concept, but it is ruined by the boring combat and repetitive missions. Even the fanservice can't save a game that makes you fall asleep as soon as you start playing.- XGN

Man of Medan is the first of The Dark Pictures. The game has all the elements of horror to keep you up at night. Still there are some flaws in the acting, but nothing serious. IF you want to get scared of a game, this is a must buy.- XGN

Wolfenstein Youngblood takes a different approach than previous Wolfenstein installments. Co-op instead of solo-adventuring and a bigger emphasis on exploring. Aside from some small hickups with stealth and enemies, it's a blast from beginning to end.- XGN

This game is a decent platform puzzle game for the Wii U. However it's shame that the game doesn't really use the new possibilities from the Wii U.- XGN

It's obvious that, when you're playing a sport game starring Mario, it's gonna be a fun. But there could have been meer content. Also the 3D effects aren't all that special. Don't forget to play the great mini game: Super Mario Tennis!- XGN

Eternal Strands, the first release from the new studio Yellow Brick Games, features new ideas mixed with the best practices from other genres. Not everything works as planned, but the interaction between environments, weather and magical powers allow for creative gameplay.- XGN

The Fallout 76 Wastelanders update might be the salvation of the game. The free expansion finally adds NPCs to the world and adds a lot of new content. Bethesda also improved the graphics, in particular the lighting system. It's still not technically perfect however and the new additions come with their own problems. Still, the Wastelanders update is a giant leap for Fallout 76.- XGN

Age of Empires Definitive Edition is stuck between past and present. On the one hand this is a beautiful remake with nostalgic gameplay, but the problems of the past still plague the game, making the Definitive Edition a shell of its former self.- XGN

Panzer Tactics HD feels like a game with two sides. Although the strategic side is really satisfying, the controls aren't. They are sometimes frustrating as is the lack of pace in your own turns. Still, Sproing manages to create a solid strategy game with Panzer Tactics HD.- XGN

Sword Art Online Hollow Realization is an almost perfect imitation of an MMO. The game feels like one, but is more JRPG than MMO. There is tons of stuff to do in a massive world. And it is lots of fun for fans, but also for newcomers to the franchise.- XGN

God Eater 2 Rage Burst offers the best experience of the whole franchise. Not only does it have an abnormal amount of customization, it is also dynamic in its story. Although the graphics are outdated, the game is still able to amaze you.- XGN

Ride 2 sadly is not the racegame that it could have been. The amount of content is superb, with lots of tracks and bikes to choose from. However, its technical problems impedes Ride 2 from being the great racegame that it could have been.- XGN

The balance in Gratuitous Tank Battles is spot on and the A.I. is very good. It's possible to create your own maps, which is always a good thing. It's just a shame that there isn't a multiplayer mode to test your skills against others.- XGN

Clash in the Clouds is a fun additive for the original game, but it’s not what Bioshock fans had hoped for. The collectors’ items in the museum are a good idea and it’s fun to look around, but this is not the DLC we were expecting.- XGN

Nightmares from the Deep 2 The Siren's Call is the sequel to The Cursed Heart and better than its predecessor. With more puzzles and a better story, it will take you on a grand trip. Not grand-grand, but still a fun trip.- XGN
