Spelunky's punishing platforming returns to PC, where its daily challenges bring new life to an amazing game.
DuckTales isn't as good as you remember, but Remastered is a fairly faithful version of Capcom's classic NES game.
Rayman Legends is bursting with creative platforming and fresh ideas.
Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn has launched with a great class system and amazing promise
Lone Survivor's indie survival horror tale finds its most powerful expression on Sony's handheld.
Game Freak has really outdone itself this time, and Pokemon X and Y will be remembered as great transition point for the series’ transformation into an even more social, beautiful, and strategic game. Building on five generations of games, a digital menagerie of captivating creatures, and a wide range of diverse regions to explore, Pokemon X and Y proves this formulaic portable role-playing series can still deliver an innovative experience.
Great horror stories are many things, but tedious isn't on the list, and that's exactly the feeling that's born of Knock-Knock's inability to explain itself. A game that doesn't tell us how to play and has no consistent rules is a frustrating experience, no matter how eerily beautiful it is. Knock-Knock's confusing mechanics give little reason to answer the door.
Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag is a gorgeous, fantastic sequel that gives you the freedom to make your own fun.
Call of Duty: Ghosts' robust multiplayer suite and refreshingly varied campaign make it one of the best in the series.
Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games has some good ideas but it's weighed down by bad motion controls.
New abilities, tough enemies and more maps make XCOM: Enemy Within a superb expansion, but the ending needs an upgrade.
Part 1 of BioShock Infinite's story-centric DLC returns to Rapture but doesn't give you long to enjoy it.
NBA 2K14 on PS4 & Xbox One is not only a great basketball game, it's a showcase for your new console.
Professor Layton and the Azran Legacy brings a great series to a close in fine style. It doesn't take many risks with the established formula, but its story is engaging, intelligently written and compelling to the end.
Resogun is a smart, speedy game that reinvigorates the shoot 'em up genre.
Flower on PS4 is even better and more beautiful than the phenomenal, unforgettable original.
Contrast is a game full of heart, beauty, and at least a few excellent puzzles.
Killzone: Shadow Fall is a worthy game to purchase alongside your PlayStation 4.
Knack's shifting size is a great idea that never really grows into anything substantial.
What could have been an easy sequel that traded on past glories is instead a compelling argument for digging up the foundations of Zelda and seeing what happens - rather like Wind Waker did 10 years ago. A Link Between Words is not a total revolution, but it may very well be the start of one. I haven’t been so challenged by a Zelda since Ocarina of Time, and rarely have I been so consistently surprised by one.
