    SingStar Ultimate Party is a step backward from the game it used to be. With the missing multiplayer-modes and no option to import old discs it looks like a kind of downgrade. If you don’t mind that, it’s exactly the game for you.

    Assassin's Creed Rogue offers more of the same, both at sea and on land. While the attractive combination of naval battles and playing murderer on land is fun, the game simply fails to live up to expectations.

    Dungeon of the Endless is an addicting turn-based tower-defense that will bring many hours of non-stop random generated dungeon exploring to the player.

    Shadow Warrior is a great game full with blood, gore and a lot of one-liners. It has some great action, but the implementation of the touch pad on the PlayStation 4 doesn't work well and a little bit more of variation wouldn't kill.

    The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth is an even greater version of a already amazing game. Rebirth addresses the frame-rate issues of the original and adds new items and bosses to shoot your tears at.

    Chariot is a sidescroller made by developer Frima. Visually the game is very pretty, but it gets bugged by the frustrating gameplay which makes it hard to enjoy.

    Assassin's Creed Unity brings lots of improvements to the Assassin's Creed franchise. However, this doesn't mean Unity is perfect. Some minor issues stand against a lot of positive, innovative improvements.

    Shovel Knight is a great challenging game, not only for retro gamers but for anyone who loves platform games. With brilliant level design and music, Shovel Knight is THE game to download on the Nintendo eShop.

    Football Manager 2015 delivers a solid experience once again. Helping your team reaching the top already was an enjoyable adventure, and this new installment fine-tunes already existing features. Thanks to that, Football Manager feels more complete than ever.

    LEGO Batman 3 is not a whole new concept but it is a nice co-op game. Not only for children, but also adults can have a good time with this title. It's just fun.

    Dragon Age: Inquisition is BioWare's new masterpiece and they weren't bluffing. The RPG has everything a fan of the genre could wish for: an amazing amount of gameplay, a great story and extreme beauty. A must-have for everyone that calls himself a gamer.

    PES 2015 is the best game in the franchise in years, thanks to superb gameplay and the exciting My Club-mode. Despite its good looks, its presentation is worse and the licenses are yet again incomplete.

    A ton of fun and a good (re)introduction to Nintendo’s 8-Bit classics. Even though it has slight hints of a double rehash, Ultimate NES Remix is still an addicting throwback to the glory days of the Nintendo Entertainment system.

    The Muppets Movie Adventures is a very short and simple game. It offers not much depth, but more important, only five levels. It looks nice, but not great, and the same goes for the gameplay. It's just too simple.

    The Legend of Korra is a fun game, but could have been a lot better. It misses the complete point of the series and doesn't offer any depth. Aside from that the game is just simple, but entertaining.

    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.

    MXGP for PS4 has four extra tracks and slightly better graphics, but is still the same boring, almost clinical and thus disappointing motocross game.

    Lone Survivor: The Director's Cut is an amazing horror game. The ambiance is perfect. It will get you hooked and will not leave you alone until you figure out what is happening.

    In the end, Civilization: Beyond Earth is just a really average game. Firaxis has some nice new idea's - like the tech-web and the way aliens behave -, but they don't cover the fact that the title has some flaws.

    Advanced Warfare is the best Call of Duty in years. Kevin Spacey is brilliant and the multiplayer is just smooth. The best shooter of 2014.

    Project Spark feels more like a tool to make your own videogames than a videogame on its own. We are not too fond of the in game transactions, but other than that Project Spark is free to play and gives you the opportunity to make in depth levels.

    Pac-Man as a platform game is a nice idea, however the title could have been much better. Levels are real empty and it's all too simple. But kids will love it, no doubt about that.

    Dance, sweat, sing: do it all in Just Dance 2015. It's a fun game for parties.

    Lords of the Fallen is a challenging but fair game. It does look a lot like and plays like Dark Souls, but that's one if its strengths. With the addition of a good XP system and some fun challenges, Lords of the Fallen is good RPG to have for your next-gen consoles.

    It´s disappointing that The Sacred Tears TRUE doesn´t impress, as the love of the developers is clearly visible and the game has some interesting ideas. Especially the fighting system sounds promising in theory, but fails to deliver an exciting strategic experience.

    An awesome character and a big open world to play in, that's what you get in Sunset Overdrive. Lots of weapons, power-ups, mutants and a great way to travel, making it an unique experience for every player.

    Minecraft is finally available for the PlayStation 4 and it's still a great game. With a bigger world and more view-distance, Minecraft is a perfect game for both beginners and PS3-veterans, though the game doesn't offer anything new.

    Disney Infinity 2.0: Marvel Super Heroes is nice, especially for kids. It's cute, but one must say that Skylanders Trap Team is king.

    Zen Studios has adapted the series and put it inside two pinball machines. They are very entertaining but very chaotic at times. Especially the sounds are chaotic and annoy easily. Worth buying.

    It is weird and refreshing, it offers a lot of things to collect and a lot of possibilities in adjusting your characters. The fighting system is not very good, and Akiba's Trip is a long one as you get a load screen every five seconds.
