Super Mario Odyssey is simply amazing. It should be included in game design guide books as an illustrative example of how diverse and rich the games can be, while still being understandable and convenient.

FIFA 18 lacks real innovations on big systems and has lots of shortcomings. This may lead to the fact that the old fans will not be addicted to the game as before. Switch version is the best portable FIFA experience ever, but sadly, it has lots of shortcomings too, and doesn't include a lot of elemets from PS4 and Xbox One versions, while costs almost the same.

Despite a number of shortcomings, Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus surprised us with interesting stylization of the story about alternative reality, brutal action, powerful weapons and beautiful graphics. A weak finale and the absence of memorable bosses can upset someone, but in the end The New Colossus is still one of the best shooters of 2017.

Bloodshed's End is a satisfying ending to a story. We look forward to new cool projects from Team Ninja.

Lets face it: it will not replace DiRT Rally with a remarkable off-road, or Forza Motorsport 7 with a ton of content. On the other hand, GT Sport is 100% unique in its aesthetics, for which Gran Turismo is loved, and this game is still recommended to everyone who is not indifferent to racing and cars as objects of culture.

The Evil Within 2 is one of the most great and emotional adventures of this year. Developers, sadly, did not have enough time for polishing of the game and expanding open areas, but we hope that all the problems will be solved in the third game, if it, of course, will be released.

We still have a third, final episode of this story, but after the first two chapters, we can confidently say that we'll be more touched and fascinated by a bright ending than upset and disappointed.

Cuphead is the best reincarnation of Contra and Megaman, which one could only imagine. And given that this is the studio's debut project, we can't help wondering if StudioMDHR Entertainment is involved in the deal with the Devil ...

Beautiful game design, great mechanics, a variety of gameplay situations, sparkling humor of varying degrees - almost everything is perfect. But being a remake of a game, which was released 14 years ago, this project does not offer anything new to the old fans. Bowser's Minions turned out very funny, but not impressive in terms of gameplay. But for all newcomers and today's fans of the series this game can be safely recommended.

It's hard to explain, but this ridiculous and technically backward game has something special, something that allows you to fall in love with a fictitious world. However, in order to make sure that you can enjoy this game, you should pass a simple love test for Risen. Are you ready to go to the past? Then at your own risk take a step forward.

Dragon Quest VIII is an amazing JRPG, which has become even better on 3DS thanks to great new features. As a result, we got one of the most beautiful and well-designed JRPGs on the platform, where all aspects work competently, allowing you to enjoy the atmosphere of a fabulous adventure with a company of bright and very memorable characters.

It seems that Batman: The Enemy Within was done by completely different people who returned to poorly written instructions for creating a blockbuster at home.

Despite fan fears, DiRT is still the best rally simulator on the market. The game in particular will appeal to those who waited for the continuation of the main series. We hope that project will be able to expand its userbase and in the future developers will please us with new licenses and really beautiful graphics.

SteamWorld Dig 2 is perfect fit for users of portable gaming devices, such as Nintendo Switch or PlayStation Vita. But game will look great on a big screen TV too.

Dreamfall Chapters on the PS4 can be called "Mighty No. 9 from the world of adventures", which stands in a row with Syberia III. As a result, the project can be recommended only to the largest fans of the original, who are ready to forgive the game for all its shortcomings. Console version of Dreamfall Chapters is one of the most unsuccessful ports and yet another Unity anti-advertising.

Turn10 continues to polish the concept of Forza Motorsport, improving all the elements and increasing the volume and variety of content. The seventh game pleased us with the improved weather, variety of tracks, great simulation and options for deep tuning of the rich car park. It also confidently enters into the new generation of 4K HDR screens, while demonstrating tremendous optimization. In the the next game we would like to see more significant changes in the career department, adequate implementation of Logitech G920 wheel, as well as some other changes, but even so now we have an excellent and - most importantly - addictive game.

Ruiner, despite some small problems, is incredibly addictive, and completely absorbing your attention. And that's a nice surprise.

Unfortunately, a small number of licenses prevent the game from becoming truly perfect, but Pro Evolution Soccer is primarily loved and appreciated for its deep gameplay. And this aspect in PES 2018 is great.

Many bugs in console version and shortcomings cause a slight disappointment. But at the same time Battle Chasers: Nightwar remains an enthralling and strong RPG, which can be even better after all the fixes. In the meantime, the console version is worth playing only if you really miss turn-based battles and fabulous adventures.

Echo is a mixed bag. On the one hand, there is an interesting and well-presented story with an unexpected ending, notable characters and unusual game mechanics. At the same time, all stages are visually similar to each other, mechanics are not deep enough and the set of possibilities is too limited. But still you can try it, if you love the genre.
