    MXGP2 doesn't deserve to be the only motocross game of this generation. The game looks ugly, it's technically outdated and has lots of bugs. Don't buy this one.

    VR Worlds opens the world of virtual reality with 5 different games. It shows the possibilities the PlayStation VR offers to gamers and the gaming industry. However most of the games are quite simple and monotone. The London Heist is a big plus.

    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.

    Anthem is an ambitious project and it paid off for BioWare in some measure. The gameplay is spectacular, the story is good and has a challenging endgame. But annoyances sometimes spoil it and it's up to BioWare to fix those problems for the future.

    Transformers: Dark of the Moon is not a game we could recommend. The gameplay is boring and way too short. You're better off picking up Transformers: War for Cybertron again for a much more pleasant experience.

    We are not sure why NeoCore Games released Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing on the Xbox One. A sudden change in difficulty, no story at all and now you have to pay for characters. No, with just a decent combat system, Van Helsing is not that incredible.

    The Starship Damrey is a fun little experiment. Do not expect too much and you will probably appreciate the interesting story.

    Dark Alliance can lean on an enormous amount of lore. Many locations, friends, and enemies make an appearance. the level design is pretty good and challenges to explore. However, the game is held back by bugs and battles that just do not work. The game has huge potential but sadly falls short in execution.

    Because of the bad gameplay and graphics is How To Train Your Dragon not a special game. It's a better idea to spend your money on a ticket to see the movie version in a cinema.

    Time Crisis: Razing Storm combines a bad story with even worse controls. This game is not worth your money, despite the fact that the two extra games are even more fun than Razing Storm itself.

    Steel Diver has an original concept but the game itself isn't really that good. There aren't enough missions to play and the gameplay is difficult to handle. Therefore it's not something you should buy immediately.

    Worms Collection offers some fun and shows what Worms is all about. Despite the fun, the game lacks cool features which were available in past versions. Due to this huge flaw the games can't compete with the older PC-versions whatsoever.

    Whispering Willows is suffering from the curse of mediocrity. It feels as if this game could have been more, but unfortunately never reached the heights to become a classic.

    Star Ocean 5 had the potential to be a great game, but the game feels only average now. The characters are interesting and look great, but the world itself feels empty. Combat looks great as well, but your team's AI is terrible sometimes. An 'OK' JRPG.

    Bee Simulator could've been something special if it had more variety in the missions and a world that didn't feel so empty. With a lack of both the game just feels a bit boring at times. The game is beautiful though and plays well so you might want to give it a chance when it's on sale.

    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.

    TRON transports you right into a computer and apparently that computer is very old because the game has a lot of flaws. This game will still be able to let you have a fair share of fun but it would have been better if Propaganda Games had put just a little bit more effort in this one.

    Mario Tennis Ultra Smash is a welcome addition to the Mario Tennis franchise. It's very fun and it looks amazing. Unfortunately, there's a huge lack of content.

    Square Enix has taken a step back from the usual RPG-themed games and manages to deliver an above average third-person shooter. Especially the graphics and the sound aren't up to today's standards.

    One Piece World Seeker has ambition, but fails to perfect the execution. The camera is horrible, side quests don't add anything and the large island feels empty. Thankfully the many skills and interesting main quests save what little there is left.

    Spider-Man: Edge of Time is an interesting game... initially. After having played a few missions, you'll get bored with the environments. Spider-Man doesn't have any freedom in Edge of Time, making the entire experience feel just, well, wrong.

    If you want to experience Cars 2: The Videogame, buy it on the consoles. The 3DS version simply isn't fun to play. Kids might like it, but only for a short while, until the boredom strikes.

    Dr. Mario is on call and he has to save the world. Or at least you have to on your mobile. The classic gameplay is updated with new elements to make the game last throughout the more than 100 levels. Unfortunately there are in-game purchases.

    MX vs. ATV Supercross isn't the game fans were hoping for. It lacks diversity in content, the graphics are below par and other small mistakes makes you want to forget playing this game.

    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.

    Ary and the Secret of Seasons has an original concept and an appealing look to it. The game lets you control the seasons to create platforms or open up other ways to progress. In the open world you can find a lot of things to do which keep you busy for hours. There is simply a lot to discover in the game. But unfortunately there are a lot of flaws. The game has tons of glitches, a faulty camera and crashes sometimes. Thanks to this the great concept turned out to be a mediocre title, even for 40 euros.

    Blade Kitten turns out to be an amusing game but it doesn't manage to leave a strong impression. You might enjoy the first play through but after that the game will just lie there, collecting dust.

    Bang Bang Racing gives the player a real arcade feeling. Unfortunately the game lacks creativity. There isn't a whole lot of content and after a short time you have seen the same circuits enough to get bored of them. With a camera angle that doesn't work properly you can say that Bang Bang Racing has failed to impress.
