8 / 10.0 - That's You!
Jul 4, 2017

It's a no-brainer for those with a PlayStation Plus account and one to consider for those with a bunch of friends and worn out copies of Jackbox's finest. You'll definitely have to invest in a portable charger for your phone or tablet, though.

This one's a no-brainer, from fans of the original games to those looking for amazing platformers – Crash has it all.

6.5 / 10.0 - Arms
Jun 7, 2017

ARMS has potential, but Nintendo's done its best to bury it under neon colours and a catchy theme tune.

8 / 10.0 - Tekken 7
May 31, 2017

With all the superfluous about, it's a good thing that Tekken 7 really relies on its core mechanics.

it's far easier tackle the bridge of the original U.S.S. Enterprise on your own.

If you're a fan of fighters, you've no doubt been spoiled of late by high-quality offerings that come with a range of extra features and — perhaps most importantly — engrossing, engaging story modes that help to create an attachment to characters. Ultra has none of this.

9 / 10.0 - Injustice 2

This sequel is far more than a fighter. It's a love letter to DC's heroes and villains

7.5 / 10.0 - The Surge
May 16, 2017

The promising story, reminiscent of every damn 70s sci-fi movie and one which drew me in almost immediately, really does take a backseat until the latter half of the game.

8 / 10.0 - Farpoint
May 16, 2017

Judged as a shooter, Farpoint is as generic as they get; thankfully, Impulse Gear's effort has other things going for it. ... If you've a PlayStation VR, this is definitely one for the library.

6.5 / 10.0 - NBA Playgrounds
May 15, 2017

Bland and generic against the computer, Playgrounds is infinitely better with friends. Priced competitively at around the $30 AUD mark, depending on console, it's worth a bounce if you go in with your expectations set at the right point.

8.5 / 10.0 - Prey
May 6, 2017

Despite those rough patches, Prey is wholly engrossing, begging the player to solve Talos 1's many mysteries. It works well as a shooter, a stealth game and carries an 70s sci-fi vibe that is nothing short of a delight to experience.

7 / 10.0 - Puyo Puyo Tetris
Apr 25, 2017

If you're into puzzle games, Puyo Puyo Tetris is a nice new (well, newish) take on a familiar formula, though those that just want vanilla Tetris won't be left wanting either.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is solid and enjoyable, with small tweaks that mean it easily surpasses the Wii U's original release. Should you get a Switch for it? Yes. Yes you should — especially if you've got friends who're up for a race themselves.

8 / 10.0 - Thimbleweed Park

Thumbleweek Park is a stellar mix of mystery and humour

Essentially, Reloaded is the pair of games, bundled on PS4. The port's pretty solid — when you're playing, things are crisp, clear and look great in 1080p. Cutscenes don't fare as well, sometimes looking stretched and blurry. Still, those instances are hardly noticeable, as you're engrossed in Danganronpa's story by then.

9 / 10.0 - Yooka Laylee
Apr 4, 2017

Playtonic's special brand of humour is weaved throughout, seemingly innocent but with a sly wink towards those old enough to appreciate subtleties.

8.5 / 10.0 - BYE-BYE BOXBOY!
Mar 24, 2017

Levels take around two to three minutes to clear, so Bye-Bye is well-suited for portable play.
