If you're a fan of challenging platformers or find yourself drawn to the ever popular art of speedrunning, SEUM is a title that you definitely shouldn't resist.
I have to admit, my first impressions of Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite weren't good.
Released at a budget price, Baja: Edge of Control HD isn't going to blow anyone away, but for racing game fans after some cheap off-road thrills it's certainly worth considering.
You might just have some fun playing Knack 2, but at the back of your mind there'll always be a sense of déjà vu alongside the incredulous thought that a sequel to Knack actually exists.
If you're after a horror-tinged point and click adventure game you really can't go wrong with Tokyo Dark. The few control niggles you'll encounter will quickly be cast aside as you put your nose firmly to the floor searching for the next clue, which is surely the hallmark of a great mystery.
With only two episodes of Telltale Games' Guardians of the Galaxy left, once again I'm left excited as to where the story is headed next. Marvel's off-the-wall IP has made for a great source material for Telltale, allowing them to deliver what to me is one of their best series' to date. Hopefully the last two episodes will continue to deliver the goods.
If you're a fan of racing games, F1 2017 should be considered an essential purchase — even if, like me, you don't follow the sport. The racing is seat of your pants stuff just like it ought to be, and its career mode is simply phenomenal and offers tens of hours of in-depth gameplay. With F1 2017, Codemasters may have just made the best Formula 1 game ever, and I just can't wait to see how they aim to top it.
Warriors All-Stars has quickly become my favourite Warriors game of recent times.
It is, without a doubt, the best old-fashioned isometric RPG available on console, so if you have a hankering to get stuck into something you can really sink your teeth into, look no further.
Everybody's Golf on PlayStation 4 is the best it's ever been, and that's all you really need to know.
Ys Seven may be quite old and rather basic, but it's still an action-RPG that's worthy of your time. If you're after a light-hearted romp full of action that proves that solid gameplay is more important than snazzy visuals and complex mechanics, you won't be disappointed.
Temper your expectations and take on board that Yakuza Kiwami is a remake of a game that's over 10 years years old and you'll enjoy it for what it is – more of the same, only not quite as polished and with less to do on the side.
It has some flaws that can suck the fun out of it, but White Day should still be of interest to horror fans looking for something substantial.
For music rhythm game fans, SUPERBEAT XONiC EX is an essential purchase.
For Switch owners looking for a interesting adventure they can play on the move, Severed is absolutely essential.
Like the original Mega Man Legacy Collection, this second bundle of games and associated extras isn't likely to overly impress anyone that's not already a fan of the Blue Bomber. Those who have grown up playing Mega Man games, however, will absolutely love it. The controls are responsive, performance is solid, and the number of added features and challenges is commendable, making Mega Man Legacy Collection 2 a must-buy for fans who long for a taste of nostalgia.
Though it has some minor issues that undoubtedly hold it back a little, Sine Mora EX is a fantastic side-scrolling shooter, cram-packed with enough content to keep you playing in the long term.
Matterfall is perhaps the least essential Housemarque title in the PlayStation 4's catalogue, but it's still a cut above the majority of the competition.
This is Sonic just as you remember, but bigger and undoubtedly better. Is it the best Sonic game? That's hard to say as it comes down to personal preference with regards to stages etc., but one thing is for sure, Sonic Mania is likely to be at the top of many Sonic fans' lists.
Combining investigation, exploration, stealth, puzzles, and a near constant barrage of horror, Observer is a meticulously created game that rarely puts a foot wrong. If you think you have the stomach for it, this could be one of the biggest surprises of the year.
