Tokyo Xanadu eX + is quite an interesting adventure that lacks in budget and story departments compared to Persona, but still is very decent, thanks to well-designed characters, combat system and interesting bosses.

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is the biggest game on Nintendo Switch, which lacks polishing of individual elements. Nevertheless, thanks to the unique world, the best combat system in the series, beautiful music, great characters and spectacular vistas - it's really difficult to stop playing and enjoying. Even in spite of some strangeness, gameplay limitations and excessive anime vibes, we spent about 150 hours in Xenoblade 2 and look forward to the new game Monolith Soft.

There is no interesting plot, deep characters and villains. And all the cult heroes look bleak and naive.

Destiny 2: Curse of Osiris - not a bad expansion, which once again reminds us that the Bungie artists are one of the most talented in the industry. Shooting elemets are still great, but the reuse of content, a story full of monstrous dialogues and lack of motivation to play further after going through all the activities can disappoint old fans and players who have been waiting for new content for a long time. Now we can only hope that the real epic in the scale of The Taken King lies ahead...

Snipperclips Plus - Cut it out, together! - a good, but rather short cooperative game, focused on two people in front of one screen, with good puzzles and funny animation that suffers from the same type of music and lack of online mode.

Project CARS 2 is a full-fledged racing simulator, a very rare guest on the consoles. The game turned out to be the most hardcore in comparison with the newest Forza and GT. It can even be called "Dark Souls from the world of racing games".

This game resembles a roller coaster with a weak first episode, perfectly executed second, slightly weak third, best fourth and fairly good finale. If you like episodic adventures, then you should try Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy.

Gear.Club Unlimited is the most budget game with an outdated graphics and monotonous music and tracks, which mistakenly sold for 3000 rubles. Honestly, there is no real reason that will force you to buy this game. If you have a Switch, then it's better to pay attention to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe or Fast RMX, which look and play many times better. Or you should try DiRT4, Project CARS 2, Forza Motorsport 7 or Gran Turismo Sport on other platforms.

Hell Is Empty - not exactly what we wanted to see as the final of the Life Is Strange prequel. Nevertheless, the mini-season as a whole turned out to be an interesting. Fans of LiS and other episodic adventures should try this game.

Absolver is a good attempt to make a complex martial arts simulator that suffers from a lack of a normal map, a small amount of content, a broken cooperative mode and a strange system of mastering moves. Developers should have added new zones, schools and tests, and at the same time make interesting missions and events for people who have played the game several times and just do not know what else to do.

Syberia for Nintendo Switch is the best console console version of the cult adventure game at the moment - thanks to various settings, great touch controls and original graphics and content from the PC version. Despite some problems, the game is very addictive with its story, bright characters and unique atmosphere.

Another Resident Evil: Revelations port suffers from the laziness of developers, which translates into outdated graphics and the lack of worthwhile innovations (original game was released 5 years ago). On the other hand, you should buy this game if you love Resident Evil series and have not played through earlier versions of Revelations.

Black Mirror has an interesting storyline and interesting puzzles, but at the same time game suffers from terrible optimization and lots of flaws. Of course, if you love the "old school stories", you can give the game a chance, but everyone else should pass by.

It's better to play this game on PC. Console version is disappointing.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 has a faded and boring story, a huge amount of unnecessary and uninteresting characters, a lot of monotonous levels, bad camera, stupid companions and a broken cooperative mode. At the moment, this is the worst game in the superhero universe. And you just better skip it to avoid negative emotions.

Battlefront II's campaign is a failed attempt to make an expensive blockbuster that, without a popular license, would look very boring. Online multiplayer in Battlefront II, on the other hand, is significantly better than in original in all respects.

Perhaps Kirby: Battle Royale will appeal to small children under the age of ten, but if you are slightly older, you can safely pass by.

Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen is a great chance to play an unusual role-playing game. If you have already passed through the original game and its add-on, you are unlikely to find anything new here.

Blue Reflection - a good replacement for the next Atelier with cute heroines, deeper characters and not a bad storyline. If it were not for pauses in the gameplay, problems with graphics, repetitive tasks and battles, this game would have deserved a completely different score.

Despite some shortcomings, South Park: The Fractured But Whole is an excellent RPG with a fascinating comic storyline, funny characters, interesting abilities and a system for creating artifacts and clothes. The creative approach of developers to game situations and great humor make this project one of the best in 2017.
