With some great fan service and an authentic tone, Reigns: Game of Thrones uses its simple format to offer one of the most enjoyable video game takes on GoT to date. If you're an avid watcher or reader of Westeros' dynastical drama, you'll enjoy this Choose Your Own Adventure-style approach to ruling the Seven Kingdoms.
The online play is severely lacking and disappointing. But many hours of fun are to be had with this game and even more so with friends.
It's a step in the right direction after Dynasty Warriors 9, but still needs a lot of work to match up to some of the other great titles in the series.
As a Call of Duty veteran, I'd say give it a chance. If you want an even harder Zombie experience, this game has provided it with bells on, and I look forward to what the DLC brings in next few months.

Managing to up the ante once again, Playground Games have delivered a feast for racing fans that continues the series' trend of balancing real-world driving and flat out fun. If you're after something slightly less arcadey than Burnout Paradise but not as slavishly simulated as Forza Motorsport, Forza Horizon 4 has got you covered ten times over.
Ninjin: Clash of Carrots' decent gameplay and lovely graphics make for an enjoyable experience, and there's enough differences between the characters and with weapon customisations to keep you playing.

It's an addictive title with great replayability.

Two Point Hospital has astonishingly managed to capture the feeling of Theme Hospital, taking all the best elements from original while adding improvements and enhancements. It's not just a sweet dose of nostalgia - it's a fun, funny, and very good game to boot, and will keep you up into the wee hours researching cures or just trying to unlock one more star rating.
With a fresh take on the character in both story terms and gameplay, Insomniac have delivered a superb experience that harks back to when Rocksteady revitalised Batman with Arkham Asylum. Marvel's Spider-Man is a brilliant, thoroughly needed entry in the superhero genre that is a must play whether you're a hardcore comics fan, casual Spidey aficionado or simply a lover of action adventures.
As it stands, Strange Brigade is a blast, with some great hooks that lend the game to some readily accessible fun. It's just a bit of a shame that the potential is being eked out for DLC.
The game could be some spectacular with some changes via updates or even an expansion, but right now it misses the mark.
If you're a fan of Formula 1 or even if you've given it a cursory glance when it's on at the pub then there's a lot to enjoy here.
A strong start to the series' coda, The Final Season's first episode is among some of the best storytelling we've seen from Telltale.
The Council continues to surprise and Episode 3 is without doubt the best so far.
This game has recaptured the virtual sportsman in me.
This Is the Police 2 is a dark and engrossing game that takes the best bits of its predecessor and builds upon it in every way
