For fans of good, old-fashioned stealth, it's a bit of a no-brainer, really.
Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition is really meant for those who, like me, missed out on the previous versions. And for us, it's a fantastic package.
If you've ever been a fan of Ikaruga and own a Switch, this port is absolutely essential.
Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection is a welcome walk down memory lane, and thanks to the implementation of online features, the games within once again have legs.
Despite its issues, it's easy to love I Hate Running Backwards.
It's simply the best version of a great game, and even if the changes are marginal, that still stands.
If you really love Warhammer 40K and have a great deal of patience, you might like Space Hulk: Deathwing Enhanced Edition. For most, though, it'll just be an exercise of tedium.
Trailblazers is entertaining when playing against the CPU, but best when played with real people. The A.I. is no match for other competitors' emergent strategies, and you can't put a plan into action very well with it either.
Little Witch Academia: Chamber of Time has its fair share of issues, but overall it's quite an enjoyable adventure.
If you've already played Dragon's Crown to exhaustion on PlayStation 3 or PlayStation Vita, you won't find anything here that'll get your juices flowing. For those who have not yet played Dragon's Crown though, it's the perfect way to enjoy what is destined to become a cult classic.
Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze is simply fantastic.
Has Raging Justice lived up to my expectations? Mostly, yes.
Battlezone Gold Edition is a great game that's easy to pick up and play; one that I'll certainly find myself dipping into little but often. It has some minor gameplay issues and imbalances, but they're quite easily overlooked when you're having a blast. And that's what's most important, surely?
The God of War series has a bright future it would seem, one that many of us didn't expect or think was possible. And I'm extraordinarily happy about that.
Go into Dead Secret aware that it's a simplistic adventure primarily made for VR and your expectations will be kept in check. Possessing a story that will grip you until the credits roll, its mostly drab audio and visuals won't matter so much when you're trapped in its embrace. And its lack of challenge will just keep your progression rolling at an enjoyable pace.
It's the racing game equivalent of Marmite - some will love it and some will hate it. I sit somewhere in the middle; I like it, but can't ignore its flaws.
Bullet Witch on PC is little more than it was all those years ago on Xbox 360; an adequate third person shooter with some good ideas but flawed execution.
Overall Don't Knock Twice is quite a hard one to judge. It does what it sets out to do - scare you silly - rather well, and without resorting to cheap jump scares to boot. But with its short length and limited replay value, I'm not sure if it provides value for money.
Manticore: Galaxy on Fire is a solid but unspectacular space shooter.
It's hard to recommend MX vs. ATV All Out. It's not a very polished game, and mechanically it's underwhelming.
