It’s not the fact that you’re controlling a perambulatory candle that’s the oddest thing about this game, but that its story is so oddly affecting despite its absurdity.
A perfect accompaniment to the SoulsBorne series, with plenty of unique ideas of its own and some of the best combat of the generation.
A perfectly competent platformer, perhaps Yoshi’s best since Super Mario World 2, but one that is far less unique than its visuals suggest.
The ‘80s nostalgia is laid on so thick you could almost choke from it, in this joyless proof that too much nostalgia can be a bad thing.
In an ideal world it all would’ve been included in the main game, but if you can get past that this is a great set of DLC extras.
A loving homage to PS one era JRPGs, but its small innovations are suffocated beneath a dead weight of clichés and conventions that in most cases were better off left to the past.
An excellent reinvention of the Hitman formula that gives existing fans almost everything they want and makes itself highly accessible for newcomers.
A much more interesting story and lead character than usual for the series, but the weak script and aging combat system fail to make the most of it.
Gorgeous graphics but gormless gameplay leaves you wishing you were playing any of the dozens of other games this indie dud attempts to parody.
An intelligent, thought-provoking, and extremely creepy adventure, that proves that survival horror can be more than just shooting zombies.
An interesting test of your VR mettle, but also a reminder that once the novelty wears off VR titles need compelling gameplay as much as any other game.
An inspired mix of old school Resi game design and modern presentation, and the best VR options so far in a major release.
The most entertaining Yakuza game so far, that’s part gangster epic and part surreal Japanese nightlife simulator.
Simple, charming, and considerably improved on the 3DS. Dragon Quest isn’t for everyone but this bridges the gap between retro and modern games very well.
Just as charming as the original, but the improved combat and clever new gravity abilities make for a notably better game.
A notable improvement on the original, although most of the changes are still just doodling in the margins – as the series waits for a more substantial overhaul.
An occasionally biting satire of post-Brexit Britain, that also happens to be one of the best – and shortest – graphic adventures of 2016.
One of the most unlikely remasters of 2016 is also one of the most enjoyable, as long as you like retro shooting, cowboys, and robots.
A little more linear than usual, but Shantae and her friends have never looked or played better in this amusingly silly Metroidvania.
A partially successful soft reboot, with some of Telltale’s best storytelling – even if many of your decisions still make precious little difference.
