PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds on PS4 is a great game, ruined by technical shortcomings and bad controls. The first can be fixed, but the second is tough to improve.

Destiny 2's Black Armory DLC finally adds matchmaking, but its repetitive missions and bland gear show that it has little else to offer.

Silver Lining is a great finale to the Spider-Man DLC thanks to the story. It's funny and action-packed that's all the better thanks to the great gameplay the game is known for. Some side quests are repetitive, but the ones that aren't make up for it.

Sadly the second DLC for Spider-Man disappoints. It's more of the same with a run of the mill story that ties you over until the third and final part. The one saving grace is the great gameplay that keeps you from hooked until the end.

It's a shame The X Games Pass doesn't offer a new area to play in even though the challenges it serves up are great. The X Games Pass also isn't that long. You'll need to find enjoyment in the new tricks to learn, which is fun to do.

The final episode of The Council differs from the other episodes in tone and length and is kind of a let down. It is too short and there are too many abrupt changes in Checkmate to conclude it in a satisfying way.

Chimparty is so much fun to play with friends and family. Luck might be needed to win sometimes and the chaos can be overwhelming which is a shame. The music is great and sets the mood well for some fun times!

Gear Club Unlimited 2 is a game that tries to be a simulator and an arcade racer in one. It offers a lot of cars and tracks, but has a very slow start and a faulty set of controls. Next to that the games loading times are far too long. It just frustrates.

The Sims 4: Get Famous is worth your time as it allows you to become a celebrity. Thanks to fitting career options and multiple ways to become a star you'll have a blast playing through the small world. The scale therefor might be it's biggest flaw.

Earth Defense Force 5 is the best title the franchise has seen. Minor improvements makes it worthwhile to spend another dozen of hours killing bugs. Especially when playing co-op the game will outshine it's bad to mediocre story and graphics.

The fourth episode of the Council has some challenging puzzles and an interesting story to follow. There are unfortunately some graphical issues and some confrontations are too easy with some new abilities.

The third episode of The Council is one of the least compelling of the series so far. The puzzles are not logical and the amount of running around you have to do is quite tedious.

Just Cause 4 is the perfect example of what Just Cause is. The action is over-the-top and amazing, but the story is really thin and missions get repetitive. If you love the explosive gameplay however, you are set for a perfect vacation.

This third entry has more than 600 Yo-Kai and many things to do, but suffers due to passive fights. Because of that the game is very easy which makes it fun to play for the story. It's a shame the minigames take you out of the fun story though.

Asterix and Obelix XXL2 is a game that entertains for a little while. This is mainly because of the numerous winks to other games. The remaster doesn't impress on any area. The game has an old feel all over and the gameplay falls flat after a while.

All in all, Smash Ultimate is a true celebration of the most iconic games in history. With the magical music, the biggest roster of brawlers ever, and more modes than you could have dreamed of, it's time for Smash on the Switch. You do this on over a hundred different and balanced battlefields with up to eight players who all sit with a smile on their faces due to the addictive gameplay.

Civilization 6 is great thanks to the many rulers, it's addicting gameplay and because of how well it works on Switch. It's a shame the online multiplayer is missing. It shows it doesn't have everything the PC has, but the gameplay will keep you playing.

Bad Dream Fever isn't for everyone. Sometimes it's not clear what you're supposed to do which means your full attention is required. That isn't hard though, because the story is interesting and you can play through it in a small amount of time.

Fury's adventure doesn't come close to those of her brothers. The game is entertaining, but is feels linear. The fights are challenging but on the other hand the puzzles aren't. Still the game is a fun entry in the franchise, but not the best.

Castlevania Requiem combines two of the best games in the Castlevania series. However, it does just that. The bare-bones presentation and weird mistakes keep this from becoming a must own collection.
