    Animal Crossing Happy Home Designer is a blast for everyone who that loved to decorate their home in earlier Animal Crossing games. The options are limitless, however this comes with a few limits in other aspects. As a whole, the game is a blast to play.

    Ultra Despair Girls is the latest installment in the Danganronpa series. This spin-off is good, but not as good as the previous games. The lack of Japanese audio is a big minus.

    Rememoried is in one part walking simulator and the other a puzzle game. The breathtaking audiovisual quality and the surrealistic experience complement the first, but frustrating puzzle mechanics make it a game with two faces.

    One Piece Pirate Warriors 3 is a fun game for the fans of the franchise. The fun is mostly found in the story mode, but the extra modes become repetitive very quickly.

    PES 2016 is arguably the best PES game to date, and combines dynamic and addictive gameplay with beautiful physics and graphics. EA had better step up their game this year.

    Risen 3: Titan Lords Enhanced Edition is fun, but that's about it. If you're still hooked on a game like The Witcher 3, leave this one alone. If you're looking for a new RPG experience however, give it a go.

    Dishonored Definitive Edition ports the 2012 original version to the powerful Xbox One and PlayStation 4, including all DLC. That means better graphics and extra content. There are some downsides, but there is no better moment to start playing Dishonored.

    Mad Max just breathes the atmosphere from the movies, though it has only a little to do with them. On the other hand the game offers nothing new and doesn't shine specifically. Still, it is a lot of fun to wreak havok across the immense desert.

    Forza Motorsport 6 is one of the most astonishing racing games ever made. The game offers a complete Forza experience with lots of cars, tracks and race types. Unfortunately, the impressive weather system isn't dynamic, but that doesn't spoil the pleasure.

    Disney Infinity 3.0 is the latest installment in the Infinity series. We think it's the best Disney Infinity game yet. Star Wars and Inside Out add a lot to the game, and there's enough to experience.

    Evoland 2 is in all means the successor to Evoland. The game is isn't as straightforward, it takes a lot longer to beat and throws in multiple genres to mix it up. Everyone who loves retro games is gonna love Evoland 2.

    Metal Gear Solid V is the perfect evolution of the Metal Gear Solid franchise. The amount of freedom, customization and the FOX Engine are close to perfection. One of the best stealth games ever made.

    Mario Maker is a must play for Wii U owners, whether they just want to make or play Mario levels. The interface is inviting and straightforward, and the way the game introduces its possibilities is amazing.

    The mechanics function very well now that the game is on PS4.

    Giana Sisters Dream Runners is a game which falls short on a lot of parts. The camera never sits right and the game offers almost no variation. Still it looks nice and offers a fun time racing with four people in platformer-style.

    Mega Man has its most authentic legacy yet with Mega Man Legacy Collection. This bundle contains six games for only 15 euros and delivers the real retro Mega Man experience with extras.

    Lethal RPG: War is an RPG which doesn't add anything new to the genre. Despite doing what it's supposed to do and even offering challenging battles, it never feels original or inspired.

    Devil's Third had much promise, but the game turned out to be a huge disappointment. With an unoriginal storyline, boring weapons, inconsistent frame rate and unfairly difficult bosses. It's hard to recommend this game to anyone.

    Zombi is still a sweet game, which surely gives you a hell of a scary time. This version misses a few features like the multplayer mode and Ubisoft didn't really brush it up graphically. Still Zombi is a game worth playing.

    Until Dawn is a damn near perfect game, which just breathes horror on every level. The game puts you in control of a group of teens and terrifies you while doing so. This is a must have if you own a PlayStation 4.

    This is a remake of the original Gears of Wars for the Xbox 360 (2006). Now, it looks better than ever and contains more aspects and features, like new acts and new multiplayer options.

    The fourth episode of Tales from the Borderlands is the best one: a hilarious shootout with Rhys, a story you want to explore and that typical Borderlands humor. The emotional aspect doesn't work quite as well here, but it still holds up.

    Onechanbara Z2 Chaos is made for a special group of gamers. It wants to persuade you with big bouncing boobs and a fighting system, but it only delivers on the latter. An atrocity.

    ENKI is a game that tries to deliver a replayable horror game, but does not really succeed in doing that. The game is far too short for its price, and the randomisation makes the game annoying more than replayable. Because of that, ENKI fails to convince.

    Fly and survive through the Game-of-the-Year-winning world of BADLAND and discover an astonishing number of imaginative traps, puzzles and obstacles on the way.

    This game looks amazing, thanks to the beautiful artwork. It also offers a nice experience with the tale of a blind girl searching for a red cat. However, it's all a bit too simple.

    Legend of Kay is an update of an old PS2-game. It's not that great in comparison to other PS2-platform series like Rachet & Clank or Jak & Dakter. We have seen better platform-action.

    Everybody's Gone to the Rapture is a story-driven masterpiece. Even though you will be able to finish it within 4-6 hours, it will leave you breathless and blown away.

    Canvaleon freshly combines platforming with stealth gameplay. Unfortunately, the sheer difficulty and the lack of general direction make the game more frustrating than fun.

    Submerged is a great indie-game that proves you don't always need violence in a game for it to be great. Though it's a little on the short side, it's still a great ride.
