The Digital Fix

7 Days to Die had the potential to be something impressive but with frequent glitches and game freezes it falls well short of being the game it could so easily be.

Embrace the grind!

An engaging thriller, even if you are only two days away from retirement.

Go at it, Warhammer and tongs

Overall then TransOcean 2 is a distinctly average game. It’s not standout in its genre nor is it a weak link and at its purest it’s a solid economic simulator if a touch lightweight.

The setting is decent, the atmosphere can be good in an intimidating way but as it's a first-person shooter with awful combat and an even worse frame rate it's impossible to recommend.

Hard Reset was a great game for 2011. In 2016 it is just lost.

Despite clunky combat and an unremarkable story Mirror's Edge Catalyst star still shines thanks to excellent community features.

Bold concepts, but the experience never quite comes together. For all its potential, Battleborn feels dead on arrival.

As an arcade racer, it 's possibly the most fun you can have with the laws of physics. Some may be put off by the lack of a more competitive race mode, but for the majority, this colourful, simple and above all, addictive game is one of the most enjoyable racers to hit consoles in quite some time.

Stellaris is a game that begs you to explore but with erratic sector AI and trait conflicting win conditions it is a confusing and at times unexciting game to play.

If you’re into numbers there is much to love about Offworld Trading Company. It is all about the bottom line and getting those figures to add up. The novel use of money not just as a resource but as liquidity for your company allowing you to purchase all the other resources you require is initially confusing, but ultimately rather wonderful when you fully understand it. The trouble is that all these numbers begin to feel rather heartless after a few hours.

A bold but ultimately damned experiment, the game unfortunately does not offer any huge benefits in its PlayStation 4 re-release. Admittedly, the action orientated gameplay can be rather fun but does become stale rather quickly, particularly given just how long each of the four campaigns can be.

A bit too short, a little fiddly and a little less than invitingly re-playable to recommend to many more than the concrete fans or curious WiiU owners intrigued by the last hurrah of a dying platform.

A beautiful game that rewards those who lose themselves in the story and the world that Stoic Studio has weaved.

The only fault one can aim at Dark Souls 3 is its lack of originality, everything else is perfect.

Enter the Gungeon is roguelike perfection.

A hidden treasure

Fun for a while but by the time the difficulty curve really kicks in you'll be bored to death.

Want a Cold War stealth game? Play Metal Gear. Just not this.
