    Saints Row: The Third is now on Switch for better or worse. The game hasn't aged well, but is still fun to play. Just don't play it docked, because this is a open world game meant to be played on the go.

    Sid Meier's Starships lacks depth and good graphics, but it's a fun turn-based strategic game that can be played for hours.

    The final episode of The Council differs from the other episodes in tone and length and is kind of a let down. It is too short and there are too many abrupt changes in Checkmate to conclude it in a satisfying way.

    Revelations is an okay game, but too simple a port from the 3DS game. Game technical it’s one of the greatest horror games of the last years, but that says it all. It has the same defects as the 3DS version and it’s too expensive for that.

    It's a shame The X Games Pass doesn't offer a new area to play in even though the challenges it serves up are great. The X Games Pass also isn't that long. You'll need to find enjoyment in the new tricks to learn, which is fun to do.

    The Last Tinker is a joyous platformer inspired by classics such as Jak and Daxter and Banjo Kazooie. The game is very colourful and it sometimes feels kind of childish, because of the easy levels with no challenge at all.

    The game starts off way too slow and fails to grab your attention. There are some cool new features, but these won’t compensate for the cons, which are the difficult controls and almost no use of 3D graphics.

    Fate of the World: Tipping Point offers a great learning experience but doesn't keep the player interested in it's gameplay for long. The look is good and you have a ton of possibilities, it's just a shame that the learning curve is so steep.

    Ferrari Racing Legends is without balance. The way you have to unlock things, doesn't work and that's a shame. Ferrari deserves a better game than this one, because the cars are basically the only good part of the game.

    Sly is back and we applaud that, kind of. The game is outdated, too simple and too childish. It’s a good deal that you can buy the PS3 and Vita version for the same price, so that offers twice the amount of fun.

    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.

    This game is a remake from a remake and therefore too expensive. The previous game on the PS3 is cheaper and has the same content. But if you don't have a PS3 then you can always look into this version.

    Furi is a great mix of hack and slash with a bullet hell. Where the game performs really great on the action level, the game misses the mark when things get quiet. Still it is a very enjoyable game, but it has its flaws.

    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.

    TV Superstars is a fun game to play with friends during a relaxing weekend. But it just isn't worth buying, because the price is to high for the amount of content you get.

    Operation Raccon City has a pretty good multiplayer and some smooth controls. That is unfortunately where the goodness ends. The singleplayer is weak and the A.I. is just as stupid as the zombies.

    Swarm is a game with a nice concept, which unfortunately isn't properly elaborated in the gameplay. Before you spend thirteen bucks, check if you have enough patience to play the same level over and over again.

    This classic Sonic game gets very hard when played on your own, but as soon as a friend joins and plays as Tails, everything gets a bit too easy. This games misses gimmicky new features and the levels do not differ much, apart from the theme ofcourse. It's fun to run around with the super speedy Sonic, but unfortunately this game lacks innovation.

    Alien Breed 3: Descent is a game that disappears between all of the other shooters. The game does almost nothing new compared to the previous titles and doesn't stand out. However, if you can't get enough of shooting up aliens old school style, then Alien Breed 3: Descent is worth your nine bucks.

    Yo-Kai Watch 2 is a charming, but passive and repetitive experience. The game lacks an enjoying fight system and the writing is horrible.

    EA Sports FC 24 doesn't deliver on the changes the name change would suggest. In the end it's still FIFA, but with a few new things to enjoy. Unfortunately that also means this game is plagued by the same issues that have plagued the FIFA-franchise for years like pay-to-win in FUT, weird situations in Career Mode and multiple bugs that have been there since the dawn of time. Some cool new elements like Evolutions in FUT give a little bit of redeeming quality, but overall it's not great.

    The Tomorrow Children is despite its promising setting a dull game. It's technically a Communism simulator in which you must spend (in-game) money to even buy the tools to get the job done.

    Yesterday Origins is a mediocre title. Where you follow interesting characters and settings, most of the time the puzzles feel like to much out of place. You can immerse yourself in an interesting story, with terrible voice overs.

    Carmageddon is a enjoyable game which seems to have a lot of power-ups, foul language and silly driving. The singeplayer is fun for a decent amount of time but the multiplayer is the mode where the game really delivers. Unfortunately on the PS4 it is quite impossible to play due to the fact that there seems to be nobody online.

    At certain moments Strength of the Swords 3 show its interesting ideas. But at almost all of those moments the execution is lacking.

    The concept behind Xotic is fun, but it isn't executed in a good way. The graphics, audio and overall production values just disappoint and never really seem to impress.

    Although Tokyo Twilight Ghost Hunters offers an intricate RPG ghost hunting game, the visual novel aspect is boring at times. The lack of tutorials is surprising, especially regarding the unique interactive "emotion wheel".

    Fallout Shelter is a nice free game for real Fallout fans. The game features beautiful, characteristic Fallout graphics, but is ultimately lacking in action.
