    The choices you made in Telltale Guardians of the Galaxy are finally making an impact on the galaxy and features a great action sequence. It's a shame the episode is pestered with technical problems, which has its effect on the way you play.

    This game is original. Not only do you fight against enemies, but the clock is ticking too! So it's a shoot em up with a lot of chaos, but it's addictive to play.

    Sonic Mania is an instant classic if we're speaking of Sonic games. The game takes you back to the Genesis time with its look and feel. Although the speed is sometimes sacrificed for platforming action, this is a must buy for everyone.

    The Escapists 2 is a great game and there are a lot of different ways to escape. You will enjoy the humor of the game. But it might be a bit hard to escape the prison.

    Mario and the Rabbids come together and that means chaos, but in a good way. Ubisoft absolutely took this one home. The game is challenging, looks great and combines two franchises into a new fantastic one for the Switch.

    This is the only title that should be in your PlayStation 4 right now. The best game to play if you dig a good story and nice missions to play. But be sure that you checked Yakuza 0 first.

    Minecraft Story Mode Season 2 episode 2 has some impressive moments. But with bleak characters and dialogues alike, it doesn't make it the best episode in the series.

    Outstanding and challenging gameplay. Unfortunately due to its inconvenient controls and some other problems, it won't be the best Housemarque game you'll encounter.

    The different styles of the games don't charm and the collection as is, is a bit small with four games instead of six. And there is not much extra content to explore. Still, you get to play the coolest and the toughest Mega Man adventure in the series.

    Lawbreakers is a fresh new FPS with some room for improvement, but so far it’s a neat experience. For the price of 30,- euro’s you’ll have hours and hours of fun.

    This is a stand alone. Nathan Drake is out of the picture, but the new adventure with Chloe en Nadine is nice! It has some typical Uncharted elements in it and you will enjoy it. However, we miss Drake.

    Agents of Mayhem is an over-the-top hero shooter with lots of agents to choose from. The game pays an homage to old cartoon series with weird enemies, cool cut-scenes and a lot of action. Sadly the game suffers from the common flaws of the open world genre.

    Has Been Heroes is a tough game and not for everyone. The longer you play, the more items and stuff you will get. But you will suffer. Just hang in there and keep playing.

    Yes, there is a new season in Telltale's Batman. And we like it. Batman has some issues with Riddler. Can you solve his problems?

    Patapon Remastered entertains just like the original did. Its looks fantastic and plays away just right. The hunting part however is still far too stretching. Nevertheless, Patapon is a game you have to play.

    Redeemer is a top-down brawler with stunning graphics and addictive combat. At least the first few chapters. After the half-point mark bugs, boring locations and an artificial difficulty dominate the first impressions.

    Overcooked for the Switch is one of the best co-op games you can get for the system at the moment. Its chaotic but fun gameplay and delivers hours of joy, while delivering enough variety to stay fresh until the end.

    Namco Museum is a collection of arcade games from Bandai Namco's past. Even though some of the games are timeless, they don't seem to capture that same kind of magic like they would in an arcade hall. Because of that, Namco Museum falls short.

    Basically Lost Song 2.0 with the addition of the mechanized 'Duel Avatars'. While being an overall mediocre JRPG with some highlights, Burst Linkers are totally unnecessary in terms of gameplay. Also the graphics are a bit outdated.

    This game is fun to to play. The gameplay is addictive. However, 50 euros is way too much for an old game.

    A solid second DLC with better level design and richer storytelling than Dragon of the North. Enemies could have been less generic, but hey, Sanada Yukimura makes up a big deal for that.

    Infinite Minigolf is a great game with infinite possibilities. Infinite courses are a great way to make sure you keep on playing. The only con is the camera, which doesn't always show the entire course.

    Miitopia is a fun game for both young and old. It features humor, a lot of RPG elements and a cool Friendship Manager. But not all is as good as it seems. Traveling gets old quickly as it is automated and you can only control your own Mii.

    Hey Pikmin is a new and sidescrolling title for the Nintendo 3DS. Although the gameplay is fun, it's not that hard. The challenges are there when you make them yourself as a player. The Pikmin are cuter than ever and it's an easy title to pick up.

    Flip Wars is a fun little game for the Switch, that is ideal to play with some friends on the couch. The gameplay, though simple, is entertaining for all ages. Sadly the game lacks any single-player content. But it's low price makes up for a lot of it.

    That's You is a casual game which offers a guarantee for fun. That is if you play offline and with more than two players. Playing online or with less players will not be as much fun. Still a great demonstration of the new PlayLink app.

    Housemarque knows how to develop good games. If you like twin stick shooters you should try Nex Machina. However, it's a bit chaotic when you play together. In the end it's still fun.

    Splatoon 2 is a fun and chaotic shooter with a lot of charm. The single-player, while short, delivers a lot of diverse fun with cool boss fights. But it's main attraction is the multiplayer, which is a lot of fun to play, although it has its limitations.

    This downloadable content is as good as the main game. You'll get a new character and a new boss. And it's creepy and fun at the same time.

    Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age is a great remaster. That being said, it still isn't a game for everyone. The gameplay takes time to master, but what you get back from it is definitely worth your time and effort.
