Pikmin 3 Deluxe is a complete game like you tend to get from Nintendo. The graphics got a good brush-up and the controls are adjusted. However, there are still some small issues the game works smoothly. Next to that, the game has some new missions, and you can play the entire game in a worthy split-screen co-op. This is a must-buy for every Switch owner, just because of the great co-op mode.

Watch Dogs Legion promises a futuristic London, where you can play as everybody. Unfortunately, it has a lot of flaws that should be perfected in an already delayed game.

These two classics in their genre haven't aged that well. While Praetorians seems to fit better to the consoles, Commandos has been poorly adapted to the usage of a controller. Both games show their age, and especially in the case of Commandos, better versions are available.

9 Monkeys of Shaolin is a pleasant surprise in a year full of beat 'em ups. This is not just another brawler, but one with an extensive skill tree, different fighting styles and a lot of fun gameplay. The game is playable in offline or online co-op and in both styles the game works flawlessly. There are a few bugs here and there, but nothing worth mentioning. If you like to fight, buy this game.

Wasteland 3 is an excellent RPG by keeping the spirit of the original, while also borrowing from Xcom. While the load times get in the way sometimes, there is no denying that you need to play this game if you love a great story with an edge.

The Outer Worlds: Peril on Gorgon is a decent piece of DLC with some very significant flaws. Because the player needs to progress beyond a certain point, but the save file can't be in the final stretch of the game, Peril is in a very awkward position. It is most suited for players who love the game and are looking for more. But chances are, they have to restart from scratch and replay a significant portion of the base game to even start. At that point, it might not be worth it.

Although the game has some flaws, Crash 4 is a joy to play thanks to a great deal of content. The platforming action will bring a smile to your face, no matter if you're a fan from back in the day or if this is your first Crash title.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2 is a love letter to the original games thanks to the easy to pick-up, hard to master gameplay. With a great deal of customization to boot and multiple multiplayer options, there is a ton of time to be spent here for a great price. Graphics could've been better at times, but that almost doesn't even matter because you'll be way more focused on the phenomenal soundtrack.

Kirby Fighters 2 delivers an upgrade from the original but still lacks depth. there are enough characters, but in fact, they are all the same more or less. The attacks are similar for every character for instance. Still, there is enough to do in the game. most of the characters, levels, and outfits need to be unlocked and the story is quite long. Just because of that the game is fun to play for the price of twenty euros.

For the current generation, FIFA 21 is certainly a good title, although the potential was so much greater. Fortunately, Career Mode fans will be served at their beck and call this year, which was necessary after years of disappointment. The development of youth players has also improved a lot this year, although it is regrettable to see that elements such as the speed of players are still too big a factor for the core gameplay.

NBA 2K21 is really a good game. It has a lot of good aspects and fun modes. It is disappointing that 2K has put little effort into it. 2K21 looks kinda like a reboot of 2K20. The gameplay is top notch in NBA 2K21, except for throwing the ball. This has also caused a lot of discontent within the NBA 2K community. With the addition of the new shot meter, scoring points is a lot more difficult. This in turn ensures that you will play the game longer to really get the hang of it.

Kingdoms of Amalur Re-Reckoning brings you back to a magical world. The game has been polished to bring it to 2020. This succeeded for the better part of it. The game looks good overall but here and there the aging is still visible pretty clearly. For 40 euros you still get a hell of a RPG with more than 40 hours of story, all of the DLC and next to that a lot of side missions, tons of weapons and more. Also, there is a new DLC on it's way for the game slated in 2021. That makes this more than worth the buy.

The Journey to Batuu expansion for The Sims 4 is basically a holiday trip to Disney Park's Galaxy's Edge area. It boasts a good selection of clothings, building blocks and accessories, and the Star Wars themed Batuu area to visit. The expansion is quite limited. Not many buildings can be entered, and any action outside the Batuu area is provided 'choose your adventure' style. Most importantly, it proves The Sims is not suitable for story driven gameplay.

Tamarin had one thing going for it: the main character is a very cute monkey. Unfortunately this is literally the only thing which is good in the game. The game lets you walk around with weapons, shooting all kinds of enemies, but there is no real entertainment. The game becomes boring really quickly and doesn't really know where to take you. 40 euros for this game is simply too much.

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.

Mafia Definitive Edition is how a classic game should be remade. It keeps the soul of the original and pulls the title back into the modern era of games. The amazing story is kept intact with only a couple of changes here and there, including a totally new cast of voice actors. It's only a pity that the new version of Paulie is not up to snuff. Besides that, however, Hangar 13 has done an amazing job to introduce the original Mafia to a new audience and the game deserves to be played.

PGA Tour 2K21 borrows a lot from its Golf Club predecessors. By adding a helpful tutorial and many aids, HB Studios have made the game accessible to newcomers, while retaining higher difficulty levels for returning golf fans. PGA Tour 2K21 is the most all-round golf game currently available.

Marvel's Avengers is at odds with itself every step of the way. Thanks to a great story that spotlights Kamala Khan as the heart and soul of this game there is enough to justify its existence. The multiplayer, however, is riddled with bugs, bad level design, and a lack of diverse content that needs to be fixed sooner rather than later.

Super Mario Bros. celebrates it's 35th anniversary and what other way to celebrate with some of the best Mario games ever made in one collection? Super Mario 3D All-Stars is a fantastic package with three games that withstood the test of time, even though they have their flaws. The graphical update is minimal though, but the gameplay quality of the games is good enough that it doesn't even really needs to lean on them anyway.

After a great start where the setting of the Ronan Twins and the tragedy at home is depicted, Episode two isn't able to live up to the expectations. gameplay consists mostly of doing some chores and even a scene at a police station that should have been thrilling comes down to doing more chores. If you expected Tell Me Why to pick up speed, you'll be disappointed. All in all, not a very good follow-up episode.

Captain Tusbasa can be fun when you grab some of your mates for an all out brawl on the pitch if the scoring mechanic wasn't so dumb. It takes away all of the tension of a match. Skip this one unless you're really keen to experience the so-so campaign for yourself.

Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Remastered is a better take on the GameCube classic from 2003. The game does a few things better, like the multiplayer. Still, there are enough obstacles for the game to be really fun. The chalice restrains you from moving freely and the multiplayer still feels outdated. In terms of graphics there were steps taken but the game still looks like an old game, only in HD. For fans this is a must by because of the new things added, but newcomers better skip this caravan.

Microsoft Flight Simulator truly brings next gen to the masses with its extremely accurate procedurally generated world and dynamic weather system. Its mainstream appeal is sure to attract many newcomers to the world of flight simulation, which had gone stale for a while. A breath of fresh air in the endless stream of sequels and roller coaster ride action of games in 2020.

UFC 4 is the best MMA-game to date, but that's partially because of a lack of competition from other developers. As is to be expected from a game that's part of a series, EA doesn't invent the wheel but improves gradually on its own formula. The evolution points, career mode, clinch possibilities and some other new features are nice, but is it enough to justify its price tag? We doubt it.

This first episode of the new Dontnod trilogy story is a bit of a slow starter, but sets a beautiful scene of little-town Alaska where twins Tyler and Alyson grew up. The game brings everything we expect from a Dontnod game: exploration, tough decisions and puzzles combined with the supernatural and more than one complex and difficult relationship.

Paradox has done it again. Once again they have created a brilliant grand strategy game. From murdering a child for their empire to forging your own religion, Crusader Kings III offers nearly limitless possibilities to define your dynasty. Truly a masterpiece.

The Battletoads are back from the dead. With an all-new graphics scheme and cool new features the brawler lets you take the role of Zitz, Pimple, and Rash once again. The game offers over the top chaotic fights for up to three players. Next to that Battletoads honors, it's rooted by bringing in elements from other genres, like platformers and shmups. The humor is hilarious, but unfortunately, there are also a few weaker elements in the game that cramp its style.

No Straight Roads is a rock game that delivers in terms of variation. At least in the levels and the different boss fights. In terms of enemies, the game lacks a few miles and the dialogues of the game tend to get a little annoying because of the screaming main character. Still, this is a game you should definitely play. For just under 40 euros you get six hours of entertaining gameplay full of colors and a very strong soundtrack!
