While it packs in more content than its predecessors, RIDE 3 feels soulless and nonessential if you already own last year’s instalment.
A daring, and largely successful, attempt to show the civilian side of war, that succeeds as an interactive drama even when it occasionally fails as a game.
It commits no cardinal sins but this belated return to the world of Darksiders comes across as shallow, frustrating, and disappointingly dull.
Imaginative use of VR to make one of the best new music games of the generation, and which also manages to be the best Star Wars game never made.
A disastrous failure whose technical shortcomings may one day be fixed but whose design failings, and obliviousness to its own potential, suggests a game that is irrevocably broken.
Turf Wars makes good on continuing to flesh out Spider-Man’s story.
Its incremental improvements will appease fans but it does little to entice new players, in what is still a very dry and demanding sim that's devoid of character.
One of the best PC to console ports ever, with the strategy great working impressively well on the Switch and opening up the series to a whole new audience.
Remakes so good they flatter the original games, but whether or not they deserve this level of star treatment the end result is three enjoyable and accessible 3D platformers for all ages.
A brutal, albeit familiar, survival game that's thoughtfully designed and elegantly refined, and as a result easily the best game of its type on PlayStation 4.
The perfect introduction to ‘proper' Pokémon games for GO players but also an enjoyably nostalgic remake for existing pokéfans.
It feels a lot like the second half of the same season, rather than a true sequel, but Hitman 2 is still a beautifully crafted stealth game that's full of character.
It channels the grit and desperation of the TV show well enough, but the prolonged development has ended in a co-op shooter that feels outdated and unexceptional.
A masterful reimagining of Tetris that changes little about the core gameplay but still manages to create one of the most immersive video games ever.
An impressively assured attempt to prove that video games can tackle serious subject matter with respect and a level of insight that only interactivity can provide.
FromSoftware's first VR game is full of interesting ideas but very little entertainment, with frustrating storytelling and tiresome puzzles.
A terrible idea poorly realised, with a mixture of pretentious, gimmicky storytelling and banal combat that is almost awe-inspiring in the full extent of its incompetence.
One of the best Switch ports so far, both technically and in terms of how handheld mode enhances and compliments the original gameplay.
A no-thrills arcade racer that straddles the line between nostalgic throwback and outdated curio, and while fun in short doses it quickly loses its novelty.
Easily the best detective game of the modern era, with challenging and rewarding gameplay combined with some of the most evocative visuals of the year.
