    This is by far the best Dragon Ball fighting game. The gameplay is fluid, explosive and fast, just as it should be. The game looks great and offers something for everyone. It is easy to step in for newcomers but hard to master. Simply a must own.

    This is the best Skylanders game. It's funny, it's sweet; it's just everything. Every gamer needs to buy and play this. But be careful, the gameplay is addictive.

    Splatoon 3 is as fun as the last two games. The game got some quality of life changes which makes it a little better than the last one. The story mode is incredibly fun and every level is new and different. Nintendo has another gem on their hands with Splatoon 3.

    Terror Billy is back and it is time for a revolution! Once again we hunt nazi's and it had never been as much fun as now. We get a story with humor and dark elements and the gameplay is a smooth but challenging ride. This is a must buy.

    Fall of the Samurai is one of the best expansion packs that we've seen in a long time. The huge amount of new troops, technologies en agents make sure that you'll never get bored with the campaign. There are a lot of new strategic options to discover in both singleplayer and multiplayer.

    Red Dead Redemption 2 on PC is everything that the console version was but better, although with some caveats. The controls are improved with mouse and keyboard, but are still a bit clunky. The graphics are breathtaking, but it does requires a beefy PC and there are some technical problems. If you can run it however, it's one of the best games the platform has to offer.

    Where Bayonetta 2 for the Wii U left competing titles far behind, the Switch version shatters them completely. Although there isn't a lot of new content, a stable framerate and neat touch controls take the game to a higher level.

    The Darkness II lets players embark on another emotional adventure. The looks of the game are absolutely amazing and wielding the Darkness has never felt better. Fans of the original game will love this sequel.

    Mistwalker once again delivers an interesting and deep role-playing game that also manages to innovate the RPG-genre in some aspects. A convincing story, combined with a unique combat system and a great audiovisual presentation, makes The Last Story a must-have game for anyone who has a special place in their heart for special RPG's.

    Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is an enhanced port of Mario Kart 8 that came out for the Wii U back in 2014. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe still plays just as great as the Wii U version did, and even fixes its Battle Mode by completely revamping it.

    Ezio is the evolution of Altaïr. The game shows improvement and keeps you fascinated because it offers enough variation. The graphical performance is high and the sound is just fine. This game just simply can't be missing from your collection!

    Nintendo reinvents Majora's Mask again with this amazing remake on the 3DS. The game is a lot faster and easier to play, without sacrificing the difficulty or the great setting. If you are a Zelda fan, you can't afford to miss this strange entry.

    F1 2016 is the ultimate revanche on F1 2015's lack of a Career-mode. F1 2016's Career Mode is meaty and perfectly executed. Alongside the lovely racing experience and multiple other modes, F1 2016 is an excellent game that is a must buy for F1-fans.

    Gran Turismo 7 offers a great variety of cars, tracks and locations in glorious detail. It takes quite a long time to unlock it all though. The campaign has been replaced by menus in the cafe, but still requires (too) many activities before the entire game is unlocked and everything is available. However, what IS available is of the highest standards.

    The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth is packed with content and knows like no other 2D game how to turn a gloomy atmosphere down.

    XCOM 2 is a perfect sequel to Enemy Unknown. The core is almost the same, but is rock solid and the new setting is an excellent base for a wide diversity in missions. Only the graphical compartment could have been improved.

    Firewatch contains some of the greatest dialogue we've heard in a while. If you like story-driven games with minimalistic gameplay, you should definitely play Firewatch.

    Disco Elysium is wonderfully strange and absurd, but uses this weirdness to discuss very real topics. The new voice acting from the Final Cut is a great addition that really fills the world with character and gives you an idea of the multicultural space. Apart from a bug here and there and slightly wonky controls, there is very little wrong with the game.

    The Swapper is definitely one of the best puzzle games you can get on Xbox One. The puzzles are challenging, the space station looks amazing and it never gets boring.

    The well known exciting movie atmosphere of Heavy Rain is not lacking in this scene either, so it's definitely worth the purchase.

    Lost in Random is clearly a Zoink! game, though you can't compare it to other games from the studio. The game has its own style and gameplay and both of them are truly wonderful. If you like card games, dice games, or are simply addicted to adventuring this is the game for you. The game feels like a Tim Burton movie. Funny, but creepy and stylish at the same time. Lost in Random is truly compelling with an original story and once you start, you can't stop playing.

    The one year gap was exactly what Assassin's Creed Origins needed. The game feels fresh, has a new combat system, a great story and looks absolutely stunning. It has the inevitable bugs and crashes, but that doesn't diminish the fun of the game.

    Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is a great shooter and ranks among the top of this time. The multiplayer is reason enough to buy this great game.

    The little pink dude does it again. A whole new game with a story mode and two other modes on the side to enjoy. Everything look and feels wonderful. This is a must have on the 3DS.

    Ubisoft did it again. After Child of Light there is again a unique downloadable game. Valiant Hearts: The Great War is a compelling puzzle game, a must have. It has a funny look but it's actually a game with many layers.

    Owlboy is amazing thanks to it's fantastic set of characters and an incredible world to explore. The game has beautiful pixel art and great dialogue that will make you laugh out loud. The only downside is that the game crashes for no reason sometimes.

    This game is, due to its provoking story, beautiful graphics, realistic sounds and the huge amount of possibilities, almost a perfect title. If the game had a multiplayer feature as well, it probably would have earned the full ten points!

    If you're able to ignore the flaws in the beta of PUBG you see the potential that's in the game. PUBG is super exciting from the very beginning until the very last end, which makes it one of the best Battle Royale games out there. [Early Access Score = 75]
