What a grind! NFS Payback has its moments of joy but it’s being held back by a luck-based progression system built around microtransactions.

Everything COD WW2 does is a step in the right direction for the series – returning back to its World War roots, the new “War” mode in multiplayer, and guided quests in zombie mode.

Origins is an Assassin's Creed Action-Role-Playing hybrid worth playing. The best Assassin game in many years.

8 / 10.0 - Project CARS 2
Sep 21, 2017

Project Cars 2 is a fine racing simulator with many different motorsport disciplines. It offers little new over the first Project Cars, but if it ain’t broke don’t fix it, right?

Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite reuses a lot of old content and doesn’t keep up with modern day fighting games. The mission mode is great, the story and arcade are not. The character designs are the ugliest I have ever seen in a fighting game. They look nothing like the original characters. It’s as if Capcom intentionally tried to make them as ugly as possible. It’s an okay fighting game for younger audiences, easy to learn due to simple move lists, but hard to master due to countless combo possibilities. If you’re a fan of the series it’s worth a look, otherwise stick with more modern fighting games.

9.2 / 10.0 - Destiny 2
Sep 15, 2017

Destiny 2 is a huge improvement from the first game and a very strong contender for Shooter of the Year! A fantastic game to add to your library.

Dishonored: Death of the Outsider is the shortest Dishonored but also my favorite one. The game has a nicer “flow” than its predecessors due to unlimited use of abilities. Packed with 5 main mission, 13 side quests, and 8 collectibles you get an AAA quality game well worth the $29,99 asking price — highly recommended for trophy hunters who want an enjoyable, quick and easy platinum trophy.

7 / 10.0 - Knack 2
Sep 5, 2017

Knack 2 does little to improve from the first game. There are few combat moves, few enemy types and no combos at all. Even on the highest difficulty the AI is easily exploited. The cutscenes look nice though and it runs smoothly at 60fps with minimal loading times. The $40 price tag is more than fair given the long campaign and bonus challenges.

My experience with Life is Strange: Before the Storm was a good one, but nothing spectacular as far as story-telling games go. It convinces with the beautifully written dialogues and voice acting, but beyond that follows a generic story with little surprises (so far). At $5.99 you can’t go wrong. Expect between 2-4 hours of playtime with multiple choices for added replay value.

Mario + Rabbids is a nice mix of puzzles and turn-based tactical fights for younger audiences. It’s off to a slow start and gets better over time, containing a fair amount of content, collectibles and bonus challenges. It may not have the most elaborate combat system of all time but definitely brings unique ideas and concepts to the table.

Uncharted: The Lost Legacy is a fantastic addition to the series! Chloe and Nadine make a good team – they are always interacting with each other and making funny comments, leaving no room for boring moments. I’m thrilled the franchise can go on, even if Nathan Drake is out of the picture.

Hellblade is great if you are looking for a cinematic experience with superb graphics and puzzles, or if you just want a quick platinum trophy. It’s not for you if you want an action fighting game.

Visually, the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy is the most impressive remaster I have ever seen! The leap from PS1 to PS4 graphics is truly fascinating. You get three already awesome games made even better – including new bonus content – for only $39.99. That’s a really great deal you shouldn’t miss.

8 / 10.0 - Nex Machina
Jun 27, 2017

Nex Machina proves that Twin Stick Shooters can be more fun than big budget triple-A-productions and will put your skills to the test! For $20 you can’t go wrong with this one.

7 / 10.0 - Get Even
Jun 22, 2017

So what is Get Even you ask? It unites shooter, exploration and horror elements into a new psycho thriller experience. Its biggest strength is the phenomenal sound design and a unique story with decent replay value. The weak points are the unpolished gunplay and lack of scary material for which there was a lot of potential.

8.5 / 10.0 - Tekken 7
Jun 12, 2017

Tekken 7 is a well-balanced fighting game with a fantastic starting roster and crazy amount of combos. The customization is fun and there’s more than enough content to justify a purchase if you’re a fan of the genre. The only things holding the game back are the long loading times and connection problems in multiplayer. Trophy hunters will be pleased with a quick and enjoyable platinum trophy.

9 / 10.0 - Injustice 2
May 16, 2017

With Injustice 2 you get a feature-packed all around great fighting game. The new loot system integrates well with the rest and you will be pleased with the fast loading speeds and pretty graphics. If you are a fan of fighting games this is a must-have!

6 / 10.0 - Prey
May 5, 2017

You should not expect Prey to be much of a shooter. The gunplay is abysmal and resources quite limited. It rather focuses on many hours of exploration which give the game a slow pace. It has an interesting story with a lot of replay value but the outdated tech, bad graphics, absurd amount of loading screens, convoluted level designs and lack of waypoint markers are holding it back. If you liked the demo you will probably like the main game. If you didn’t, then it’s not for you.

Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 is a glitchy, unpolished, currently uncompletable game (due to bugs). It succeeds in delivering a believable sniping experience but fails on all other fronts.

9 / 10.0 - Outlast II
Apr 25, 2017

Outlast 2 delivers on all its promises. It's as gory as horror games come and feels like a high-budget AAA game. The permadeath "insane" difficulty speaks to experienced gamers who want a challenge. My only complaint is the abrupt ending that cries for a DLC and leaves too many mysteries unanswered. Props for including player-friendly collectible tracker — that's how it should be done!
