    Hatred fails to both be a properly working game and to thoroughly shock. While it does its best to hammer its 'no philosophy'-philosophy home, it doesn't make much of a statement at all.

    Farming Simulator 15 is a game which offers quite some depth for people fanatic enough to invest time in it. However, due to it's unbalanced gameplay and disappointing graphics, not many players will muster such enthusiasm.

    The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing III can't redefine the old concept. It lacks new features but can be considered a fun new story in the successful trilogy.

    Heroes of the Storm is the newest MOBA game that really conquers our hearts. Blizzard reinvents the MOBA genre with unique features in an easy to grasp game.

    Color Guardians is a colorful game. It has some unique mechanics which are quite good, but it demands too much from you. You have to remember the levels so well it's not fun to play anymore.

    Interloper is an interesting strategic game, with a nice graphical style. The matches are quick and are a game of wits, especially against other human opponents. Let's just hope for more game-modes.

    Rack n Ruin combines a funny anti-hero with great graphics but lacks a great gameplay.

    This a nice episode to play. Finally there's some more information about the missing girl and Max goes stealth.

    House of Wolves is a better expansion than The Dark Below was. It offers some much needed fresh content, but it won't convince any outsiders to join the fun. The price of 20 euros is only fair if you're an avid player.

    The Final Fantasy X and X-2 are looking better than ever in this HD Remaster. There are some signs of aging though, especially in the background and the animations. Still this game is worth buying if you see what you get for a small price.

    Toren looks beautiful but is not nice to play. It has bugs and the controls are really bad.

    Nintendo has managed to create a shooter that is both competitive, and that everybody can enjoy. And with that they created one of the most unique games on the Wii U right now. The presentation is amazing and the gameplay is fun; the single player is okay.

    Lost Orbit tries to be quick and quirky, but fails with the first element. It doesn't force you to go quick, which is a shame for a game where everything is build around speed. Great atmosphere, music, but a fundamental flaw in gameplay.

    Brawl is Bloober Teams redemption for Basement Crawl, which failed miserably. Now they make up for it with a much better version of the game. In the multiplayer it offers a lot of fun, but there still is a long way to go.

    Don't play this game. It sounds nice, but it's not so nice to play! Project Root is more project fail now.

    The biggest problem with Karmaflow is that the game could've been so much better. The music is amazing and the world in pretty interesting. Gamebreaking bugs and boring puzzles ruin that though, and no metal singer can make that right.

    Wolfenstein: The Old Blood is a great prequel to The New Order. It still has the points that makes The New Order great, but adds a few new things as well. Unfortunately, the addition of zombies is a bit of a downfall.

    The Witcher III: Wild Hunt is one of the best RPG games ever made. Its (main) story, excellent visuals, challenging quests and beautiful world makes this one of the best games in 2015.

    Puzzle & Dragons Z + Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition is a great way to get to know the Puzzle & Dragons gameplay, and gives the 3DS another great game to play on the go.

    Project CARS could be crowned as the king of race games. A few flaws could easily be fixed by patching and updating the game. It’s the best race simulator game you can buy.

    Tower of Guns is a tribute to the cakewalk. The deadly tower, Tower of Guns' playground, is full of booby traps and weird enemies that change every time you start the game. Unfortunately after a few hours, the game isn't that challenging anymore.

    Perils of Man is a fun point and click adventure, but there are just too many frustrating parts to make this a great game. Only the biggest fans of the genre should bother with this title.

    Code Name: S.T.E.A.M. is a strange game. On one hand it is a great portable strategy title, with a fun comic book style. On the other hand, however, it takes ages to complete a match, simply because you need to wait between turns.

    We go back to the hardcore fantasy and the Minion class dragons are awesome! The single-player is a little short, but the unique cards and play style make up for it.

    Titan Souls knows exactly what it is: a love song to boss battles in video games, combined with a unique combat mechanism. A few frustrations and the short length however keep it from becoming pure greatness.

    Tropico 5 on PS4 is just as fun as the PC version. The controls are surprisingly intuitive and the gameplay is addictive. Viva la revolucion!

    State of Decay: Year One Survival Edition is a nice opportunity for gamers who haven't yet played the original. Unfortunately the game still suffers from small glitches and the graphics aren't great. Only recommended to the die-hard zombie fans out there.

    Assassin’s Creed Chronicles China tries to kill the competition and has some fantastic graphics and gameplay. But we are not sure if we can call it a complete Assassin’s Creed game for a console. An iOS or Android version would've been a better choice.

    Although RIDE offers an authentic driving experience and a good selection of vehicles, the technique, visuals and circuits are quite disappointing.
