F1 2017 is certainly a good F1 simulation and the career mode will keep many people busy for months to come
A trip to the Mushroom Kingdom by way of Ubisoft and the Rabbids, this risky move pays off with an addictive and challenging turn-based strategy RPG full of great fan service and more than a few laughs
A solid adventure whose gameplay should maybe take the 'Un' out of Uncharted
Yakuza returns to its roots with this pitch-perfect remake of the series’ debut title, brought kicking-and-punching into 2017 with a total facelift and a raft of new content
The best Sonic game in more than a decade has arrived, packing brilliant levels both new and old
A clever side-scrolling shoot 'em up that's got style and flair, whose blistering action should make you forgive its short length

Shadow Tactics is a gorgeous, isometric stealth game with a fun and varied cast of characters
A handsome and challenging arcade ‘shmup’ with a time-manipulating twist

Sony brings a cult classic to a wider audience but does so with little fanfare or consideration

Less a game and more of a teaser, Leaving Lyndow ends up making a terrible impression
DiRT4 is the love child of DiRT Rally and a return to the Dirt games of old. Fun, fast and full of content. Rally fans everywhere won't be disappointed
The Golf Club 2 will entice you with easy-to-learn gameplay but will hook you with the quest for the perfect shot!
Usually calling something a ‘by the numbers’ sequel can be considered a detractor, but the numbers for the original Splatoon were exceptional, and Splatoon 2 has built on everything brilliantly. Combining a fresh way to play an existing genre with a new and exciting premise created an environment that is alluring to even the most jaded gamer
Infinitely charming and unnaturally adorable, Yonder suffers from tedious gameplay but makes up for it with a bold sense of whimsy
A near-perfectly executed remaster of a contentious-but-stellar classic that manages to feel more modern and relevant than ever
Micro Machines World Series fails to capitalise on what makes the toys and games so great, delivering a shallow experience unlikely to hold up against any level of nostalgia you might have for the tiny cars
With Get Even, The Farm 51 have crafted an immersive and captivating narrative that had me hooked until the very end. In a word, it is unputdownable
