Street Fighter 5 is the best fighting game your money can buy.
. It’s like welcoming home an old friend only to find they have a new haircut that looks better the more you see of it.
Rocksteady keeps its reputation intact with one of the finest games to launch with PSVR.
Dreamfall Chapters stays true to the adventure genre it embraced in 1999, but sticking to the same approach in 2017 means it feels a little past its prime.
Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3 offers some of the most satisfying sniping you can imagine, but everything outside of that just feels too drab and lacklustre to truly make it standout.
He should've stayed on his old island...
Metal Gear Survive is a brave move for Konami and a decent survival game – it's just not particularly fun. If you like the more abrasive side of the medium, give it a go. Everyone else should probably stay away…
Batman's third episode from season two does enough to keep the overall story ticking over, but a crowded narrative and confusing relationships mean this is the low point so far. Episode four will have to do much better.
What Miitopia lacks in actual game it makes up for in how weird and wonderful it is. If you're easily charmed by Nintendo, this will eat you up and spit you out.
At times enjoyable, LocoCycle is still a very by the numbers XBLA title.
So, Shaq-Fu: A Legend Reborn is pretty average all things considered but given what we received over two decades ago, that has to be considered somewhat of a success.
Sega Mega Drive Classics is a very well put together retro collection that takes a group of games that are well remembered and drags them into the 21st century. It's not going to overly surprise, but nor is it meant to.
Raging Justice is ridiculous fun which is, at its heart, just an updated version of Streets Of Rage. It's dumb, entertaining and well made, even if it can be horrifically hard.
Batman: The Enemy Within: What Ails You may hurl a lot at the wall, but in doing so it's very exciting and, at times, will have you genuinely intrigued as to what's next. As that's the point, it's hard to be overly negative about it.
Gundam Versus is, without doubt, a unique fighting experience, one that actually proves to be a lot of fun. Naturally, fans of the series will get the most out of it, but anyone with a soft spot for the genre could find themselves pleasantly surprised.
Minecraft: Story Mode Season 2, Episode 1 is a nice return for the series as it continues to be as light and easy as before. The perfect next step for families who love Mojang's absurdly successful creation.
Danganronpa is lunacy personified where games are concerned but does do a very good job in keeping the series going and make it accessible to newcomers, too. A crazy RPG experience.
A pleasant, but flawed, walk down gaming memory lane.
A decent, but confused, shooter.
Kirby Star Allies is an entertaining multiplayer game that's as Nintendo as they come. Played alone, it isn't as fun, though.
