5.5 / 10.0 - Skate City
May 12, 2021

With headphones on and the right mindset, the lo-fi vibes are enjoyable, but this is far from a competent Skate 4 sit-in without the tight controls or the engaging level-design and challenge.

9.5 / 10.0 - Returnal
May 7, 2021

Returnal is Housemaruqe's best game. They succeeded in their greatest achievement by combining their history as a developer onto a higher budget, and it paid off immensely. If you have PlayStation 5 and you're not playing Returnal, you're not treating your PS5 right.

RE: Village is an almost-perfect mix of the franchises' inspirations, with some of the most eccentric and exciting villains the series has seen in years.

6.5 / 10.0 - Oddworld: Soulstorm
Apr 16, 2021

Even amongst some odd design decisions from yesteryear, annoying bugs, and some dull mission moments, I really want another one of these games now.

8 / 10.0 - Outriders
Apr 9, 2021

People Can Fly aren’t re-inventing the wheel here, and it may be rough around the edges, but this is some of the most thrilling third-person combat I've played in years.

8 / 10.0 - It Takes Two
Apr 4, 2021

Hazelight has delivered another memorable co-op adventure, this time one that is brimming with chaotic Pixar energy and a real inventive flair for game ideas.

Playing MTG in the palm of your hand, flicking between cards with your fingers, that's the best way to play the digital version of this card game.

Hopefully, there's an injection of skins and other items to chase over the next month, and it'll be able to sustain a long-term player base. I'd love to be part of that group as I'm enjoying smashing into cars like never before, but the game needs a better progression system.

I loved it on PS4, and I love it even more now. With all of my technical issues removed, this is the ultimate way to play one of 2019's most exhilarating, and weirdest games.

5.5 / 10.0 - The Medium
Jan 28, 2021

I found myself rather bored a lot of the time, and straight-up hating several sections for being tedious or repetitive.

6 / 10.0 - Nuts
Jan 23, 2021

Nuts is an interesting game where the story fairly quickly overshoots the gameplay in scope.

9 / 10.0 - Call of the Sea
Dec 10, 2020

With beautiful art direction, smart puzzles and terrific performances, Call of the Sea is a must-play for anyone who loves mystery, puzzles and romance.

A solid campaign from Raven Software with a somewhat disappointing multiplayer and zombies experience.

6.5 / 10.0 - Worms Rumble
Dec 4, 2020

I am enjoying my time with Worms Rumble, but with Deathmatch being the only mode I find enjoyable to play, just three maps, only ten weapons and a slow levelling and unlock system, it feels slightly undercooked at launch.

With vibrant levels, varying objectives and co-op play, this is a must-own PS5 launch title. Hopefully, this is just the beginning for Sumo Digital, and we'll see an even bigger adventure for Sackboy soon.

8 / 10.0 - The Pathless
Dec 2, 2020

Such a beautiful game just to spend time with, especially with the superb original score by Austin Wintory.

I left Miles Morales wanting nothing more than to return to him with a new experience ASAP.

Demon's Souls is easily one of the most significant games in modern gaming history books. FromSoftware invented an entire genre that has since been twisted and built upon from Dark Souls to Nioh and Hollow Knight. Bluepoint Games remake keeps everything that made the original release such a beloved property but injects a much-needed coat of paint.

8.5 / 10.0 - Astro's Playroom
Nov 15, 2020

Astro's Playroom is a fully-fledged game that’s more than just a tech demo.

5 / 10.0 - Bright Memory
Nov 11, 2020

Although Bright Memory is utter nonsense, in a good way, it is still just a gloried tech-demo
