A strong start to the campaign, marred by some annoying technical issues.
A confident, assured sequel, and a strong end to the series.
In theory it sounds terrible, but Guitar Hero: Live's approximation of old-school music TV programming, coupled with the excellent hardware, makes it a winner.
Early-game issues aside, Volume is an entertaining and addictive mix of Metal Gear Solid and Trials.
Beautiful and intriguing, frustrating and flawed, Everybody's Gone to the Rapture is nevertheless still worthy of your time.
It doesn't hit the heights of Sapienza, but Marrakesh is another sterling Hitman episode.
An interesting and imaginative remix.
A smart, engaging puzzler with a great central mechanic.
A familiar setting makes for some excellent kills in Hitman's latest episode.
Episode 4 confirms what we already knew about Resident Evil Revelations 2: that it's a success, mixing and matching elements of Resi's old and new – while throwing in Raid mode – to good effect.
Reloaded.
Interesting co-op play and a decent cliffhanger sees Revelations 2 really get going.
An intriguing start to Capcom's episodic adventure.
A pleasant return to old-fashioned tomb raiding.
Flawed, yes. Fun? Certainly. A total failure? Not really.
Valiant Hearts is a confused game, but also a brave one tackling difficult subject matter.
Undoubtedly enjoyable, but it won't linger long in the memory.
Diminishing with every return, Ghosts' addictive nature is tempered by over-familiarity.
Flawed yet addictive, Assassin's Creed may be in need of a change.
By turns brilliant and frustrating, a Nintendo classic and a missed opportunity.
