    The gameplay of the new Silent Hill feels pretty good. It lacks in story and graphics though. The user-interface doesn't work like it should, and the multiplayer is a huge disappointment. Book of Memories could have been great but downright isn't.

    This game has its own style and it has got a lot of options. But the truth is that there are better fighting games for sale for the 3DS.

    Drawn To Death has a great cartoony art style and offers unique weapons, but lacks in content. The rough controls and lack of balance also make it less enjoyable.

    Anoxemia is a fun game at the start, but loses its charm quickly because of repetition. The second half of the game is more challenging, but it doesn't change the fact that it is very repetitive. A fun game to play in between others, but no more than that.

    If you want a good game with which to play mini games, then Nintendo Land is your game to get. Game Party Champions has some nice mini games, but also enough stupid ones.

    Herolike is a Roguelike RPG which lacks in gameplay options and characters. The soundtrack and permadeath options are original.

    Perils of Man is a fun point and click adventure, but there are just too many frustrating parts to make this a great game. Only the biggest fans of the genre should bother with this title.

    It's good to see there are still developers who dare to try something different. Because let's be honest..how many zeppelin sims are out there now? Exactly. Guns of Icarus Online offers a fun concept, working together with some random players on a flying fortress, trying to defend it from other, similar foes. Bugs and lag cause major disappointment however. That's a shame, because the idea is great. Let's hope a great amount of patches will deal with these problems.

    Pokédex 3D Pro is a source of information that is incomplete. Nevertheless it is cool to look at Pokémon in 3D, but the price keeps you from buying it.

    Pokemon Dream Radar costs a dime, and for that you get a strange interpretation of the Pokemon world. We must admit, it's fresh, it's new. But it won't keep you playing for longer than three hours.

    PAYDAY 2: Crimewave Edition has a lot of wasted potential. It's a fun game to play with your friends, but unfortunately the online mode does not work properly, as it contains too many bugs and lag to enjoy the game as you should.

    Croixleur turned out to be a little game with a lot of spirit. Sadly this doesn't make up for the few hours of gameplay the game offers. It's not very special but it will only cost you a couple of dollars.

    The story of 2Dark gives you the creeps. This is not your typical horror game, but it is more spooky than some of those. Unfortunately, the game is frustrating from time to time.

    Once you get past the steep learning curve in Monster Energy Supercross, you'll find a challenging and fun to play game. The game has solid gameplay, but unfortunately there are quite a few bugs and visual glitches affecting the game.

    Despite having a good multiplayer component, this game never convinces as a game worth remembering due to it's many shortcomings.

    Sand Land is a fine game, thanks to a fun story and a loveable cast of characters. The gameplay is just a bit too simple at times, while some frustrating design choices can leave you frustrated at certain points.

    Fury's adventure doesn't come close to those of her brothers. The game is entertaining, but is feels linear. The fights are challenging but on the other hand the puzzles aren't. Still the game is a fun entry in the franchise, but not the best.

    This is a classic example of a cash cow, or so it seems. The collection is a port of an earlier release with a few simple extra’s. The games in the collection are iconic and cool even when they are aged. So it may be lazy, but still worth your money.

    Saw
    While playing this game you will notice the simplicity of the puzzles. And because of the bad sound, the game isn't scary at all, what it should have been of course. Therefore Saw: The Videogame is disappointing.

    Due to it's shortcomings, Rise of the Argonauts doesn't score that high. The game comes out quite good, thanks to it's great storyline.

    The game is not one of the tricky 2d-platformer games that made the genre. Most of the puzzles are quite easy and the timer ruins most of the fun. The gameplay itself is fun and tricky at some points.

    WWE is back again, but this time the game doesn't offer what we expected: the same bugs and glitches as last year and a terribly frustrating reversal system. It offers a lot of modes and is graphically improved, but that just isn't enough.

    Doom II will let you experience some nostalgic feelings but the gameplay feels extremely outdated and doesn't hold up compared to today's standards.

    Harry Potter Hogwarts Mystery is very interesting for casual gamers and fans of the series. But the gameplay lacks potential and the game is frustrating when asking you to wait or pay for energy. The game has a lot of content, but it only succeeds in killing time.

    Disney Art Academy lets you draw your favourite Disney characters. Not much else is to be said about the game. It's a game about drawing.

    Pro Cycling Manager 2015 adds the Pro Cyclist mode, which is a nice addition for all the beginners of the Pro Cycling Manager franchise. But all in all it doesn't add enough new features, and the same bugs and errors of the previous games still exist.

    SingStar Ultimate Party is a step backward from the game it used to be. With the missing multiplayer-modes and no option to import old discs it looks like a kind of downgrade. If you don’t mind that, it’s exactly the game for you.

    Xeodrifter is quite clearly inspired by Metroid, but lacks that game's depth, extensive gameplay and scope. Still, some platform fanatics who crave a challenge will be more than satisfied with Xeodrifter.

    MXGP 3 is still not the game we dare to dream of. Compared to the first two games in the franchise it’s pretty good, but it contains a lot of disappointments. Luckily the key elements, the controls and the racing, work just fine.

    This game is not as good as perhaps expected. Level design is poor, the main character is not very interesting and the Metroidvania-way of exploring is maybe too difficult. However, the game gets a bit better in the end.
