    RoboCop is a passionate and faithful addition to the franchise, but it's not without its flaws. While the gunplay gives you plenty of customization and is a whole lot of fun, the rest of the game lacks a bit on the content side. It is lacking some depth in its conversations, story telling and the game world also feels a bit empty from time to time. That, and the technical imperfections that are present during gameplay, prevent the game from being that true nostalgic banger.

    Archangel is a okay game for the mobile, but it’s too short, repetitive and will eventually be forgotten. A shame, because you can have a lot of fun with this RPG for two euro’s.

    If you were to compare this game to a zombie movie, it's the game version of a decent popcorn flick. Not a revolutionary title that will blow you away, but more like Expendables with zombies. Popcorn, friends online, and a few evenings of mindless fun. Sometimes that's just what you need.

    If you like LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1 - 4, you will also like Years 5 - 7. Even so many of the locations, especially Hogwarts have been recycled. It's still a lot of fun.

    Sideway: New York is a very colorful game that brings 2D to a new highs. The variety enemies make sure that the game will never get dull. Its low price makes it a game that's well worth its money.

    Is The Splatters a good game? On a certain level: yes. It feels great to fire creepily laughing slimeblogs. The difficulty however leads to an incredibly tedious gameplay experience. Simply said, this game is not suited for everyone. You're warned.

    Shenmue 1 & 2 remaster are games that every fan should own. Still, both games feel really old on every front. There are some changes but it’s simply not enough. Though these games deserved a remake, they are still worth your while.

    Hydrophobia's strongest point is the realistically designed water. This is the first game in a franchise that has a lot of potential. However, 1200 Microsoft Points really is to expensive if you are not into adventure games.

    This collection of remasters is not adding anything important. There are some upgrades in both games, but nothing is really big. Still the games are very much worth their money and offer tens of hours of gameplay for little money.

    Ashes of Ariandel is a welcome addition to the Souls franchise. It's one of the most intriguing settings in a Dark Souls world so far, but you'll see most of it in only a few hours. Also the content is less challenging than the original game.

    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.

    Monopoly for Switch does about everything right. The game offers numerous boards and you can adjust the rules to suit every need. And you can play the game where ever you want with up to six players. The waiting time with six players is long though.

    If you're a fan of twin-stick shooters and sci-fi you'll like Helldivers. If not, you'd be better off trying out the five-year-old game Dead Nation.

    The puzzles in Murasaki Baby are very diverse, but do not expect too much hours of gameplay. Within a short 2,5 hours you will finish Murasaki Baby, but boy is it a sweet 2.5 hours… This is something you have never encountered ever before.

    One Punch Man has made a successful transition to the gaming-world. The satirical approach to superhero Manga is conserved, while many of the recognizable heroes and villains make an appearance. Fights are diverse and mostly work pretty well. Recovery from getting hit doesn't always work well. The invincible Saitama has been incorporated into the gameplay in a unique way, that work really well. The mandatory side quests to progress the story can become a drag.

    Unfortunately there are only a few improvements in Pro Evolution Soccer 2010. PES-fans will be happy with some improvements in the different modes, but general soccer fans are better off with EA's FIFA 10.

    Uno
    Uno does not reinvent the game, but it does bring the cardgame to the newest console in a fine way. Uno is, even after all those years, a blast to play, but the inevitable stream of DLC and lack of diversity keep this game from being a great new entry.

    Dynasty Warriors 8 Empires is the most complete Dynasty Warriors-game ever made. Unfortunately, the game looks awful on Xbox One and it's extremely outdated, which doesn't make it the game we've been waiting for.

    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.

    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!

    The story of the Director's Cut is slightly longer than the original, and describes the nostalgic feeling as well. Still there are some missing points like a unnecessary multiplayer mode. Fans of the puzzle genre will definitely be entertained by this game.

    Bound is not a traditional game, but more of an artistic project. The gameplay is unique and the ballerina moves in an authentic way. But it is too low paced and doesn't deliver on important aspects. Still, it's worth a try if you are willing to dance.

    The UnderGarden is a simple game that doesn't make you think to much. You'll be fully relaxed thanks to all the bright lights and smooth sounds coming from your television.

    Top Darts on the PS Vita is much better than on the PlayStation 3. Thanks to a number of new mini games and the intuitive control of the touchscreen, playing darts on a handheld has never been this fun.

    The concept of Dark Void is great and the gameplay generally works fine. Unfortunately, the story isn’t interesting and far too short.

    Typoman: Revised is a game with an amazingly creative concept. There is a lot of potential here, but unfortunately Typoman does not fully live up to it.

    Dragon Ball Xenoverse is the best Dragon Ball game in years, despite the somewhat repetitive gameplay. The (online) RPG elements are well thought-out, but the loading times are not Xbox One worthy. Creating your own unique fighter is a great addition.

    Crossing Souls is a fine game that successfully does what it needs to do, but it does only that. There is much potential in the gameplay that sadly doesn't reach its full potential. This makes Crossing Souls just an average game.

    Yes, this video game contains a lot of boobs, but it is definitely more than that. It is a very nice fighting game, however a little repetitive. Nevertheless the nice animation style and fun characters will make you want to play it all the way through the end.
